Welcome to Change in Mind.
​
My name is Trish Dewberry and I am a clinical hypnotherapist.
I help people overcome emotional or behavioural challenges in their lives in a very caring and respectful way.
​
I discovered the power of hypnosis when I was quite young. I used to ‘give up’ smoking every Monday – and that would last until about 10 a.m. It was hypnotherapy that moved me from being a 20 – 30 cigarettes-a-day smoker to completely smoke-free. As hypnotherapy can be applied to many different issues, I have relied on it many times since then to help me through various challenges in my life.
​
I bring a lot of life experience to my work. After many years working in the jewellery trade, I trained as a teacher and majored in Psychology. I then taught VCE Psych for 12 years and undertook further post-graduate studies in Psychology and Career Development, becoming a careers counsellor in schools.
In 2009 I decided to train as a hypnotherapist and so completed the Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy at the Academy of Hypnotic Science. I now run a very busy practice in two physical locations – North Fitzroy and Kyneton. I also work with clients nationally and internationally via Zoom.
​
As a member of the Association of Clinical Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists, I continuously upgrade my experience and skills with ongoing professional development and supervision.
I apply my extensive skills and knowledge to help my clients recognise and achieve the wonderful possibilities for individual healing and growth that each and every person has within them.
if you would like to know how I can help you, I recommend booking a free 30 minute Zoom consultation to discuss your individual situation.
What I love about what I do
Nothing gives me greater career satisfaction than seeing a client move from distress and despair to a state of calm and optimism, usually within a very short time.
​
When clients have struggled with problematic feelings, emotions or behaviours it is so rewarding to help them resolve the issues and move into a new phase of their lives, embracing all that is wonderful within themselves.

After more than 13 years of supporting people through life’s challenges, I’ve expanded my practice to include clinical hypnotherapy—a gentle and focused way to work with what’s happening beneath the surface.
​
Hypnotherapy uses a relaxed, focused state of awareness—to help quiet the blizzard of thoughts in our mind and access the deeper, unconscious patterns that shape our habits, emotions, and reactions. In this space, new insights and shifts become more possible, without force or pressure.
​
Whether you’re navigating challenges such as anxiety, stress, poor sleep, trauma, low confidence, or unhelpful habits, hypnotherapy offers a calm and supportive space to reconnect with your own inner resources. My approach is gentle, down-to-earth, and creatively grounded—inviting connection to parts of you that often go unheard.
​
Since 2018, I’ve been in private practice, supporting both adults and adolescents with a range of emotional, relational, and behavioural concerns. Before this, I worked in local and international community settings—including in Cambodia—supporting people through life transitions, emotional overwhelm, complex trauma and relational distress.
​
I’m excited to join Change In Mind as hypnotherapy brings together everything I value: deep listening, self awareness, and creative tools that support real and lasting change—at your pace.
