Mr John Shearer

Psychotherapist

“Psychotherapist, Mindfulness Master, Hypnotherapist, Sound Therapist; Trauma, Resilience & Life Coach.”

About Me

I guide individuals seeking deeper inner calm and lasting resilience. My approach weaves together psychotherapy with powerful tools like mindfulness, hypnotherapy, and sound therapy. We can explore how sound therapy, for instance, can gently release tension. This blend helps to address trauma, build inner strength, and navigate life's challenges. Clients find a supportive space to explore experiences and create positive change.

Approach

Combining focused mindfulness, embodied listening and subtle hypnotherapeutic guidance, sessions move at a steady, humane pace so you can notice small changes and build new responses. In Hervey Bay or via online sessions in English we create clear agreements about pacing, safety and between-session practices — short, practical tools you can try and report back on. I use sound and breath to anchor attention during moments of activation and invite gentle exploration rather than pressure. This way of working suits adolescents and adults seeking practical, lasting shifts.
