Meet Hayley Peck
Clinical Hypnotherapist
Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I am a certified & compassionate Clinical Hypnotherapist based at Beingwell Clinic in Highett, Melbourne. I have supported people on their health and wellbeing journeys for many years, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you move toward healing and growth.​​​​​​​​
My path in holistic health began in 2006, when I spent time abroad in rural villages delivering health education workshops. A year later, I opened my own massage therapy practice, helping clients manage stress and find balance in their daily lives. Along the way, I also became a 500-hour Certified Yoga Teacher, specialising in meditation and gentle breathing practices (pranayama), which I love to weave into my sessions.
​​​
My journey with hypnotherapy began in 2018 during my first pregnancy. Experiencing the benefits of hypno-birthing firsthand was truly transformative. It opened my eyes to the incredible power of the subconscious mind and inspired me to explore how hypnotherapy can support healing, growth, and positive change.

My approach to hypnotherapy
At Flow Hypnotherapy sessions are collaborative, practical, and focused on creating meaningful change in a shorter timeframe. Where appropriate I weave in gentle breathwork and yoga-informed practices which offer clients a blend of top-down and bottom-up therapeutic approaches. This integrated method supports the mind and body together, promoting deeper, more holistic wellbeing.​​​​​​​
​
I am committed to working alongside you and supporting you to reconnect with your inner calm, shift unhelpful patterns, and move toward the life you want to live — one breath, one belief, one breakthrough at a time.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Beyond my practice
Outside of my work as a hypnotherapist, I'm a proud mum to two beautiful daughters (and a much-loved fur baby who keeps us all entertained).
​I'm a coffee enthusiast who rarely starts the day without a coffee in hand and I feel most at peace when I'm surrounded by nature in quiet outdoor moments - whether it's a quiet walk along my local beach or time spent in the garden.
​​
I'm a lifelong learner, always diving into new studies in neuroscience, psychology, and personal grow to deepen my understanding of the mind.
As a 500-hour Certified Yoga Teacher, the practice continues to be a grounding influence in both my personal life and professional practice.
I believe in balance - embracing the ups and downs of life and knowing it's perfectly okay not to feel happy all the time. ​Creating space for authenticity, connection, and self-compassion is important to me and for the people I work with.
A therapeutic approach
At Flow Hypnotherapy, our philosophy is rooted in empathy, empowerment, and collaboration. We prioritize building a trusting and supportive relationship with each client, tailoring our approach to their unique needs and goals. By integrating hypnotherapy and breathwork, we facilitate a holistic healing journey that honors the mind-body connection and fosters sustainable transformation.
​​
In terms of the modality we use strategic psychotherapy. This is different from other forms of therapy which might focus on unpacking past issues and root causes. In strategic psychotherapy we are more interested in exploring what thought patterns and internal believes you might have that could be causing the challenge/issue you are facing and keeping that issue at play. Strategic psychotherapy comes from the work of Milton Erikson and Jay Haley who bought it to the masses and expanded on it.
​
With a compassionate and evidence-based approach, we help you tap into your inner resources, unlocking positive transformations for a more fulfilling and balanced life.​
