Calm Your Gut – Reclaim Your Life

Irritable Bowel Syndrome can feel exhausting but there is a way forward.

With my duel approach you can restore gut function, relieve pain and break free of the worry cycle without diets or medications.

Clinical trials show gut hypnotherapy can reduce IBS symptoms in 70–80% of people and when combined with CBT, results are even stronger – helping you rebuild confidence in your body.

Work with me 1:1 online (or in Rotherham) and start building confidence, calm, and comfort again.

Calm Your Gut

Reduce pain, bloating, and flare-ups by resetting the gut-brain connection. Hypnotherapy works at the root, calming your digestive system so your body can function normally again.

Break the IBS Cycle

CBT helps you stop the fear, stress, and avoidance behaviours that keep symptoms going. Feel calmer, more in control, and free to live life without constant worry about your gut.

Lasting Relief

70–80% of people see long-term improvements with gut hypnotherapy. When combined with CBT, you gain tools that keep symptoms away — so you can finally trust your body again.

Why Choose Gut Hypnotherapy & CBT?

IBS isn’t just a gut issue. That’s why Gut hypnotherapy is recognised as a mainstream, evidenced based treatment for IBS recommended in UK clinical guidelines. (GDH) is one of the only approaches that targets the root cause of IBS: a disorder of gut-brain interaction (DGBI) shaped by the nervous system.

GDH strengthens the gut–brain axis, helping you:

  • Reduce gut sensitivity and pain

  • Ease bloating and irregular motility

  • Restore comfort and balance

Stress and anxiety are powerful IBS triggers. That’s why I combine CBT with hypnotherapy – giving you practical tools to manage thoughts, habits, and behaviours that fuel flare-ups.

With CBT, you’ll learn to:

  • Reduce stress and calm your nervous system

  • Break patterns of fear and avoidance

  • Build resilience and confidence in daily life

By treating the gut and mind together, you can finally move beyond short-term fixes and find lasting relief. Read more on Psychology Today

IBS Success Stories

Steph Bradbury Therapy has 5 star Reviews

“Working with Steph has given me the willingness to do things and means I can live carefree, enjoying outings with friends and spontaneous travel without worrying about IBS.

Before, daily tasks were massive and I suffered with stress which meant I avoided doing things and spent the whole time worrying – this was exhausting.

I tried my GP and meds but neither worked for me so my friend suggested I try therapy.

After a few sessions with Steph I was seeing improvements and was able to enjoy my graduation day by celebrating my achievements not stressing about my IBS.

Steph’s approach has given me a different life. IBS used to be my first and last thought of the day and I could have 3 episodes a week even with medication. I had to micro-plan every journey which took up so much brain power. Life is very different now. I feel able and willing to do everything. I had 1 episode last month. I’m so grateful for Steph’s help because these sessions helped so much. Thank You Steph”
