MOST EXPERIENCED HYPNOTHERAPIST IN DEVON
I qualified as a hypnotherapist in 1993 and have practiced as a professional hypnotherapist since 1994. I now specialise as a phobia hypnotherapist in Exeter but I’ve also helped people overcome many other problems. I’ve practiced hypnotherapy for thirty years, which I believe is longer than anybody else in Devon. Less than 3% of hypnotherapists in the UK have practiced for 25 years or more, as you can see from my own research HERE.
PETE LUCE: A TRUSTED PROFESSIONAL
I have a solid background in health professions. Before I was a phobia hypnotherapist in Plymouth and Exeter I was a mental health nurse in London from 1980 onwards. I managed a very busy “acute admissions” ward for seven years. After that I was a Community Mental Health Nurse. I worked in one of the first Crisis Intervention Teams in the NHS, and in one of the first open-access NHS counselling services. You can read more about my background HERE.
FREE ASSESSMENT SESSION WITH PHOBIA HYPNOTHERAPIST IN EXETER
I offer every client a free initial face-to-face assessment session at Holmedale Health in Exeter where we can assess your needs and you can ask any questions and decide whether you want to work with me to overcome your phobia or other problem. I can provide my knowledge and skills but the motivation has to come from you. Changing anything about yourself requires effort, but with hypnotherapy your efforts will be more effective. There’s more about how I work HERE.
FACE TO FACE APPOINTMENTS
I see all my clients face-to-face at my rooms in Holmedale Health, twelve minutes walk from the Cathedral. Since the lockdowns many therapists have switched to Zoom calls and even telephone appointments, however I find that being actually present with someone is much more effective.
PROGRESS GUARANTEED
At your assessment session we will agree a plan of hypnotherapy, individualised for you, not reading off a script. If you’ve really made no progress overcoming phobia or other problems by the third session I will refund your fee. I can afford to make this offer because my clients almost always do make progress!

“HE HAS LITERALLY CHANGED MY LIFE”
I can not recommend Pete enough. I was sceptical at first, having suffered with emetaphobia for years, to the point where it literally changed my life and held me back considerably, but with Pete’s help in Hypnotherapy, he has literally changed my life. I would recommend to anyone who needs support in their phobia and want to overcome it. He was incredibly kind, non-judgemental and I felt comfortable during the sessions. Thank you Pete!

“PETE HAS CHANGED MY LIFE AND GIVEN ME MY INDEPENDENCE”
I started seeing Pete in June 2024 when I felt like I couldn’t really leave the house on my own because of my fear of dogs. Yesterday (September 2024) I went for a walk by myself in a woods and petted a strangers dog. Pete has changed my life and given me my independence.

WHAT ELSE CAN HYPNOTHERAPY HELP WITH?
Phobias are my main speciality but I have thirty years experience in helping with many other issues. There are also a few issues I do not work with. See the FAQs page for details.
HYPNOTHERAPY FOR OVERCOMING TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCES AND BAD RELATIONSHIPS.
Traumatic experiences can blight many peoples’ lives long after the actual traumatic event. Controlling relationships can also leave people vulnerable and limited long after they’ve escaped from the controlling person. But with help the damage can be repaired and the personality made stronger than before. Click HERE for more about this topic.
HYPNOTHERAPY FOR BUILDING SELF-CONFIDENCE.
If you’ve been damaged by controlling relationships, traumatised, or dominated by a phobia or chronic anxiety, you will probably lack self-confidence, and this will limit your life in many ways. Click HERE for more about help with building your self-confidence and freedom from fear resulting from a difficult childhood or a toxic relationship.
HOW MUCH DOES HYPNOTHERAPY COST?
I would never go to a health practitioner who did not disclose their fees clearly on their website, so why would you? As of 1st January 2024 I charge £60 per session. This the going rate locally, even for therapists who have less than half of my years of experience.
FREE EXTRAS
There is no extra charge for email phone or text support between sessions where this is necessary. Sometimes I make MP3s for clients and again there is no extra charge for this.
HOW I WORK
All appointments are face-to-face as I do not believe the same standard of therapy can be achieved through Zoom calls. I see my clients at Homedale Health Consulting Rooms near Exeter city centre. This is a beautiful building with nice receptionists, comfortable waiting room, clean toilets, and very nicely furnished therapy rooms. It’s about five minutes walk from Magdalene Road car park. Holmedale is used by many other professionals such as doctors, dentists, physios, nutritionists and psychotherapists.
I will not be giving you tedious long-winded lectures, telling you that your fears or other problems don’t make sense, because you’ve been told that already and it hasn’t helped.
Instead we will be targeting the fear or other negative emotion directly, helping you gain control of your reactions, and resetting your imagination to empower you instead of terrorising you.
I normally start hypnosis on the first session, because most of my clients want to get on and overcome their problem as soon as possible.
I work mainly with adults but will also see teenagers from about fifteen years old and upwards. All clients under eighteen must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Cancellations Policy
Appointments in Exeter cancelled at less than 48 hours notice are charged for at the rate of £15. This is what it costs me to book the room which I still have to pay if less than 48 hours notice of cancellation.
