Case Study: Supporting Mary Through Work Stress with Hypnotherapy in County Monaghan

From Burnout to Balance

Mary, a woman in her 30s, was referred to me by her GP after she reached a point of exhaustion in her career. Her job was highly demanding, and she constantly felt overwhelmed by the pressure of managing others. She found herself doing extra tasks, staying late, and feeling unable to ask for help. As a result, her stress levels were through the roof, and her relationships were beginning to suffer.

Mary came to me looking for a way to restore balance in her life and regain her confidence.

The Challenge: Pressure, People, and No Pause

Like many professional women I work with in County Monaghan, Mary was carrying far too much, emotionally and mentally. Her key challenges included:

  • Work-related stress and leadership fatigue

  • Difficulty setting boundaries or asking for help

  • Strained personal and professional relationships

  • Lack of sleep and increasing mental exhaustion

She knew something had to change—but wasn’t sure where to begin.

My Approach: Confidence Coaching with Compassion

We started a series of three coaching sessions that focused on practical mindset shifts and stress reduction techniques. I created a safe, encouraging space for Mary to speak openly about the pressures she was under.

Together, we:

  • Explored and reframed limiting beliefs around asking for help

  • Built new boundaries and communication strategies

  • Developed a toolkit for emotional regulation and energy management

  • Reconnected her with her strengths and self-worth

These sessions helped Mary gain clarity and start building healthier patterns—at work and at home.

The Transformation: More Sleep, Less Stress, New Confidence

After just three sessions, Mary reported feeling more positive, confident, and clear-headed. Her communication skills improved, her work-life balance returned, and she even experienced better sleep—an unexpected but welcome shift.

In her own words:

“I found the sessions very worthwhile. I feel more positive and confident. They helped me identify the areas where I need development and create a clear path forward. I’ve become more self-aware and developed empowering and inspirational habits.”

She described the coaching space as:

“Open, honest, secure and safe… empathetic, enthusiastic, and very patient.”
