Dr. Julie Kidd – Canberra GP Hypnotherapist
Hi, I worked as a doctor for over 40 years. I’ve now retired, but I’ve left this website online as a useful introduction to clinical hypnosis and to give people who are interested in its benefits the information they need.
Over my career, I practised in public hospitals, as a country GP, holistic GP, in heart disease prevention, and in an obesity clinic.
In 2001, I went to a medical hypnosis training course for GPs. The doctor who was teaching needed a subject to demonstrate on, so I brought my 10-year-old son, who had debilitating insomnia, to class. After just 2 sessions, the misery was over. After ten years of exhaustion, my son could just go to bed and go to sleep. I was so amazed that this was possible, easy and life-changing that I decided do this too and help relieve the suffering of others with intractable problems.
Some people will heal or change themselves, simply taking themselves as the authority in their own lives. They know what they want, decide to do what needs to be done and they have the inner resources to do whatever it takes. However, many of us need a little help.
Most of us know what we “should” do, but we can’t find the energy, the will or even the sense that it’s possible to change. We waste our lives and our energy on rumination about the past, fears about the future, repetitive thought patterns, unhelpful habits and beliefs and self-criticism.
Using hypnosis we can re-gather the power of mind, body and spirit into a unified force for change.

The Mind of Healing
Hello,
In 2009, I found out that I had a malignant brain tumour.
Through the course of this experience I found a much deeper perspective on what true healing is, from the inside out. Now I very much want to share what I’ve learned with other people who have cancer, or any life-threatening illness, to give them their best chance of surviving and thriving.
I have written a book, The Mind of Healing.
