Dr Shomit Mitter

"Think of the difference between a dancer who looks at her feet whilst dancing and a dancer who can glide around a dance floor on automatic. That's the difference between the conscious mind tying itself up in knots trying to solve a problem and the unconscious mind actually solving it. 

Clients often come to me feeling like drivers who needs to look at their pedals while driving. What hypnotherapy gives them is the ability to sing while at the wheel."

Dr Mitter, in an interview.

"I was nervous about hypnotherapy and frightened that I might lose control and feel exposed. To my relief I found Dr Mitter's hypnotherapy sessions to be completely comfortable, relaxing and safe. There was never any sense that I was giving up my will and, even when I examined difficult incidents from my past, I was able to consider them without reliving the trauma. With Dr Mitter's help, I am gaining an increased sense of liberation from anxiety and a feeling of faith in the universe and my place in it."

What others have to say...

"I had been a committed smoker for over 25 years and enjoyed every bit of it. 
In the last few years, I did periodically try to stop smoking. I put myself under hypnotherapy on two occasions and tried nicotine replacement on a few others. I stopped for between 3 hours (hypnotherapy) and six weeks (patches). 
In anticipation of the smoking ban in England from July 1, I decided to make one more attempt to stop smoking. To help me achieve this hitherto impossible objective, I consulted with Shomit - not without some trepidation, given my previous lack of success with hypnotherapy. Shomit approached my challenge quite differently and as part of his process, spent a fair amount of time building up a picture of the kind of person I am and developing his strategy to help me. 
Whilst it is early days yet, (probably always is for an ex smoker) I have found it easy to expose myself to all the environments where I really enjoyed a cigarette and not felt the slightest desire to smoke. Strangely, this time, I don’t feel like an ex smoker but like someone who does not smoke. Long may it last. Thank you, Shomit."

"I became curious about past life regression after reading books by Brian Weiss . 

I had never been under hypnosis before and was nervous. I was relieved to find that the actual process of being put under hypnosis was so simple and matter of fact. I could hear Dr Mitter talking to me calmly, leading me into a journey of discovery that had profound significance for me.

Dr Mitter's approach is both cerebral and sympathetic, and inspires trust. I have achieved a greater sense of peace and serenity as a result."

   Dr Mitter is one of the leading hypnotherapists on Harley Street. He also teaches at the European College of Hypnotherapy and conducts workshops for therapists the world over.

   Dr Mitter has an M.Phil from Oxford University and a PhD from Cambridge University. He trained as a therapist both under leading Jungian psychoanalyst Dr Roger Woolger (Other Lives Other Selves) and Dr Keith Hearne (Understanding Dreams) who is on the Advisory Board of the GHSC, the regulatory authority that controls hypnotherapy in the UK.

   Dr Mitter's methods are distinctive in that he always ensures that he discovers the cause of a client's ailment. This is central to his success.

   Dr Mitter offers a highly personalised service which includes a unique email facility whereby severely afflicted clients can write to him and receive replies daily between appointments.

Welcome to Hypnotherapy on Harley Street. I'm Shomit Mitter and I've made some notes that I hope you will find useful.

If this is the first time you are looking for a hypnotherapist, you may well be nervous. There are a large number of therapists out there and it's difficult to work out which one might suit you best. If you're a bit confused and need some advice, I'd be quite happy to take a call (0207 937 5709) or reply to an email (DrMitter@HypnotherapyOnHarleyStreet.com) to address some of your concerns. Please feel free to do this: there is no "charge" attached to advising you in this way and I see it very much as a part of my approach to help people with all aspects of their problems - and seeking appropriate therapy is often fairly lonely and daunting.

Do have a look around this website and see how it makes you feel. The testimonials in particlar will make you feel more comfortable. They almost all quite make the point that hypnosis is really quite straightforward and that the sessions are perfectly comfortable, relaxing and safe. There is no question of "giving up one's will": the client is always in control.

Please look at the links to How Hypnotherapy Works and What Hypnotherapy Isn't where I have tried to address some of the fears people have about hypnotherapy. If you have some concerns that I have not addressed, please feel free to give me a call or email me: no obligation, no strings attached: just an opportunity to have a chat with someone who works in the area and is in a position to help you.

Of the bullet points above, perhaps the most important is the one that emphasizes how vital it is that hypnotherapists take time to find the cause of their client's problems. Sadly, most hypnotherapists don't do this - they are content to put their clients into a state of hypnosis and make a number of generalised suggestions in the hope that these will be absorbed. This is easy to do and it sometimes works. But I feel that a large part of my success is due to the fact that I am trained to use a more complex set of skills designed to uncover and eradicate the hidden cause of client's problem. Once the cause is identified and dealt with, clients find their symptoms fall away quite effortlessly.

I have listed Some of the Conditions I Treat on a separate page. If you are suffering from a condition that doesn't appear on the list, or if you are confused about what precisely your ailment is (which is quite normal and more common than you may imagine), just call me or drop me an email. You will not be a "burden"; you will not be "wasting my time". You will be very welcome - and you will feel better for having spoken to me.

People are often nervous about their first hypnotherapy session. So in the first session we'll just talk through your problems. We may try a little relaxation if you are comfortable with it - or not if you aren't. You'll always be in control and we'll take things one step at a time. Before you leave I'll give you exercises to work on at home so that eventually you feel confident enough to stop coming to see me.

I'm going to leave you with some photographs of Ten Harley Street so that you have a sense of what to expect when they get to the practice. I look forward to seeing you.

What others have to say...

"Dr. Mitter's working style is distinctive in that he works entirely without generalised scripts. This enables him to tailor his techniques to the specific needs of each individual client instead of falling back on the 'one size fits all' methods used by many hypnotherapists today.... A complete natural, Dr. Mitter was born to do this work."

"I met Dr. Mitter when I was going through an extremely traumatic period in my life. Dr. Mitter played a huge part in helping me get over my problems not just because he is an expert in his field but also because he is, above all, an extremely kind and caring man. He is someone you can trust, someone with a wonderful generosity of spirit. Working with him is not just therapeutic; it is also immensely educative."

I have been sleeping extremely well since my session on insomnia with Dr. Mitter. Not only do I not have difficulties falling asleep - it will only take about 15-20 mins which is a great progress compared to before when it could take me a couple of hours - but I also do not wake up in between during the night. In fact, I wake up by myself a few minutes before my alarm goes off. That is an amazing! I have been sleeping well for the whole week, so this can not be a coincidence! Insomnia good-bye! I'm very happy with this result! 

Also, the way I think and perceive things has definitely changed very much since we started the sessions. I got rid of a lot of baggage and am so much more positive. I am really grateful for this. A lot of changes are happening in my life and I am really excited about what the future will bring! Thank you so much!!!

You have changed my life. Instead of forgetting my past, I have come to terms with all that happened to me. Now I say Thank God all that happened to me; after all it is because of all that I am so strong today. It is because of my past that my present is bold and that I value my efforts which will hopefully lead to further achievements.
