In my practice, you will find a safe, respectful, and confidential space. Here, you can let go of old patterns, reconnect with inner calm, and grow from your authentic self.

Deep Transformation, Emotional Healing, and Personal Growth
My name is Omree Shuval. I work as a hypnotherapist and holistic practitioner in Nijmegen, offering sessions rooted in hypnotherapy and supported by elements from parts work and inspired by Internal Family Systems (IFS), dream work, guided visualization, and NLP-informed techniques.
My approach integrates practical therapeutic methods with body-mind awareness and contemplative insight. At the same time, it balances evidence-informed practice with compassionate care.
Hypnotherapy for Expats in the Netherlands
Living abroad brings unique challenges. For example, these may include cultural adjustment, isolation, language fatigue, career transitions and identity shifts. English hypnotherapy in Nijmegen provides a space where you can explore these experiences safely and gain clarity, resilience and inner balance.
Hypnotherapy in Nijmegen: The Path Inward
Through this process, hypnotherapy helps you enter a deep state of relaxation and focused awareness. Hypnotherapy guides you into a state of deep relaxation and focused awareness, allowing access to layers of experience that often remain out of reach in everyday consciousness. In this state, you may:
- Gain deeper insight into dreams and inner imagery
- Let go of limiting beliefs and emotional blocks
- Connect with inner parts that are asking for attention
- Experience emotional calm, clarity, and regulation
You remain fully conscious and in control at all times. Each session is attuned to your unique process and unfolds at your own pace.
My Holistic Approach
I work from the understanding that body, mind, emotions, and inner experience are inseparably connected. Depending on your needs, sessions may include:
- Hypnotherapy – the core method for deep inner change
- IFS-inspired parts work – listening with compassion to different aspects of yourself
- Dream work – using symbolic imagery for insight, healing, and growth
- Guided visualisations – activating inner resources and regulation
- NLP-informed techniques – supporting the transformation of limiting patterns
My work is informed by principles from contemplative traditions such as Tibetan Buddhism, including awareness, compassion, and the practice of letting go of attachment.

Medical Hypnosis for Persistent Physical Symptoms
I completed advanced training in Medical Hypnosis at Academie Hypnos, specializing in the application of hypnotherapy for persistent physical and stress-related symptoms. This training equips me to work safely and effectively in medical and psychosomatic contexts.
Hypnotherapy is increasingly used in medical settings to support pain management, stress regulation, and functional symptoms. Research shows that, hypnosis can positively influence the interaction between mind and body, helping regulate the nervous system and reduce symptom intensity. As a result, many healthcare professionals integrate hypnosis into treatment plans.
Persistent Physical Symptoms
Medical hypnosis can be particularly helpful for people experiencing persistent physical symptoms (sometimes referred to as medically unexplained symptoms). These may include:
- Chronic pain
- Fatigue
- Stress-related digestive complaints
- Tension headaches
- Functional neurological symptoms
- Burnout-related physical symptoms
Instead of focusing solely on symptom suppression, hypnotherapy supports the body’s natural regulatory processes. Through focused attention and guided imagery, the nervous system can shift toward greater balance, often leading to improved resilience and overall wellbeing.
Hypnosis is a safe, structured, and evidence-informed approach. During sessions, you remain fully aware and in control at all times. In addition, sessions are adapted to your personal history and goals.
Techniques I Integrate
- Hypnotherapy (core method)
- NLP techniques
- IFS-inspired parts work
- Guided imagery
- Coaching approaches
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) focuses on the relationship between thought patterns, language, and behaviour, supporting awareness and change.
Guided imagery uses the imagination to evoke calming and regulating inner experiences and has been shown to reduce stress and support healing, particularly in medical contexts.
Coaching sessions draw on tools from psychology, neuroscience, and therapeutic communication to support personal insight and goal-directed change. Elements may be integrated within hypnotherapy sessions to support clarity, goal-setting and practical change.
Hypnotherapy Can Help With
Hypnotherapy can support a wide range of emotional, psychological, and physical challenges, including:
- Stress, anxiety, and burnout
- Persistent physical symptoms and pain
- Life transitions and personal development
- Unwanted habits and behavioural patterns
- Self-confidence and emotional regulation
Contrary to common myths, hypnosis is not about losing control. It is a state of focused attention and heightened awareness, guided by a trained professional, in which you actively participate in your own process.
Hypnosis has been used effectively in medical contexts such as childbirth, pediatric care, pain management, and supportive treatment during medical procedures.
Safety note: Hypnosis is a natural and safe process that allows focused awareness while maintaining full autonomy.
Note: Sessions in hypnotherapy may be partially reimbursed when included as part of a nutrition consultation or alternative medicine session (e.g. Shiatsu). Stand-alone sessions are generally not reimbursed.
