At Akili Bora, we offer an intuitive, holistic approach to therapy—supporting your emotional, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. Our qualified therapists use a range of techniques to help you identify where you feel stuck and gently guide you toward clarity, healing, and transformation.

How Does Therapy Work?
Imagine your mind as a tangled ball of wool—overwhelming, confusing, and hard to unravel. Many people feel this way before starting therapy. Simply recognising that you need support is already a powerful first step.

What to Expect
Sessions are available online or in person. Your therapist will listen with care, ask thoughtful questions, and help you explore the experiences that have shaped your current reality. At your own pace, we’ll begin to untangle complex emotions, uncover root causes, and support your journey toward insight, growth, and ease.

What We Work With
We support a wide range of personal concerns, including:

  • Anxiety & Depression

  • Grief & Pregnancy Loss

  • Stress & Burnout

  • Relationship Challenges

  • Phobias

  • …or anything else that weighs on your mind

Hypnotherapy

  • Smoking cessation

  • Nail biting

Our network includes qualified hypnotherapists experienced in guiding lasting, positive change.

What Is Hypnotherapy?

While the word hypnosis comes from the Greek hypnos (meaning sleep), hypnotherapy is not sleep. It’s a deeply relaxed, yet highly aware state where you can access the subconscious mind and work through limiting patterns and behaviours.

How It Works

In this calm, open state, the mind becomes more receptive to change. Hypnotherapy helps you release unhelpful beliefs, shift responses, and create space for healing, clarity, and personal growth.
