Hypnotherapy

Reprogram unconscious reactions/patterns to calm the body and mind.

Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach that uses altered states of consciousness to access unconscious resources and promote deep, lasting change.

Thanks to neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to create new connections – hypnosis enables us to reprogram certain thoughts, emotional reactions or behaviors that have become limiting, in order to restore harmony between physical, emotional and mental functions.

Our approach

Sessions take place in a safe, respectful and supportive setting, encouraging a sense of calm and focus that supports therapeutic work.
Support is gradual, personalised and collaborative. It aims to draw on inner resources and promote lasting change, while respecting each person’s pace.

Dr Vanessa Novel

Hypnotherapist – ASCA member
Lymphatic drainage therapist

Driven by a lifelong passion for human psychology, emotions and energy, Vanessa Novel began her training journey in holistic wellbeing at the age of 18 with Reiki, alongside her studies in aesthetics (with a specialisation in wellness, massage and spa). Over the years, she has continued to deepen her expertise through ongoing training in massage, and later in Lympho Energie® drainage—a practice that combines lymphatic drainage with Chinese energy principles.

From 2012 onwards, she broadened her expertise through training in Kinesiology, Hypnosis, Access Bars, RITMO (EMDR) and Maïeusthésie (relevance-based psychotherapy). Keen to adapt to her patients’ evolving needs, she offers a personalised psycho-emotional and energy-based approach in her practice, drawing on these therapeutic tools to best respond to each individual’s specific needs.

Strongly convinced of the importance of holistic care for each individual, Vanessa Novel joined the MAZ Clinic team in 2024, with whom she shares these values.

Vanessa is currently training in professional and life coaching, with a view to complementing her therapeutic accompaniment by putting resources and potential into action, with the aim of fostering autonomy, confidence and self-fulfilment.
