Services
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy at Sanlyn Wellness Centre uses guided relaxation and subconscious exploration to address habits like smoking cessation, weight management, and phobia resolution. This non-invasive technique accesses deep-seated emotional patterns, enabling behavioral changes through targeted suggestions. Clients benefit from rapid results, often seeing improvements within 1-3 sessions, with applications ranging from stress reduction to addiction recovery.
Psychotherapy
Our psychotherapy services integrate psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and transpersonal approaches to treat anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues. Sessions focus on uncovering root causes of emotional distress while developing practical coping strategies. The practice combines evidence-based methods with holistic perspectives to address both immediate concerns and long-term psychological well-being.
Chakra Therapy
Chakra Therapy balances energy centers through light touch and intuitive awareness, addressing physical and emotional blockages. This New Age modality promotes wellness by restoring equilibrium to mind-body-spirit connections. Sessions typically require 3-5 visits, with benefits including reduced stress and improved emotional clarity through targeted energy flow adjustments.
Past Life Therapy
Past Life Therapy explores subconscious connections between current challenges and perceived past-life experiences. Using hypnotic techniques, this approach uncovers hidden patterns affecting present relationships or health issues. The process aims to resolve unexplained phobias and emotional blocks by identifying and addressing their perceived historical origins.
Group Therapy
Group Therapy sessions create shared healing environments for clients addressing similar challenges like addiction or anxiety. These structured meetings foster peer support while maintaining strict confidentiality. Participants benefit from collective insights and cost-effective treatment, with programs typically spanning 6-12 weeks of weekly two-hour sessions focused on specific therapeutic goals.

Lynton is the best therapist you'll ever meet. He is patient, compassionate and a really good listener. I have never felt this comfortable sharing things with any therapist. He never tries to rush you. It is very evident that he has his clients' best interests at heart. He is a truly gifted soul.

Having undergone therapy for several years, I found Lynton after reaching a plateau with my prior Psychotherapist during a difficult period in my life. His approach, insight and understanding helped me not only identify, but successfully move past my interpersonal relationship issues.
Lynton does not only listen quietly for an hour, but he asks insightful questions, dialogues with you and provides you with the tools to continue to build on your progress once you have left the session. I cannot recommend him enough.

I found Lynton by chance as was skeptical about seeing him, the first phone call put me at ease, he immediately seem to know me, 3 sessions and I am beginning to feel so much better and adjusted to put my life back on track. The hypnosis was very relaxing and together we found the route of my issues, he offers no miracles and it is still down to me to make life changing decisions, but without his help I would not even be close to making them. Many Thanks

Lynton has been incredible for me. I don't know that there is any aspect of my life that hasn't improved since being with him. It's incredible how much he cares and connects with his clients. I was always someone who was dubious of therapy, but he's helped with anxiety, anger management, improved my relationships, assisted with getting over addictions and made me a happier, fuller person because of it. I went in to see him for a "tune up" recently, after going off and on for the past couple years. He said he had never seen me more calm and sure of myself, and it made me feel like it was finally
