 "As a mother of three and a full-time professional, stress was my middle name. I've found balance and peace I didn't think was possible. The support I have received has been invaluable." 

Jessica W: Teacher
     

 "Before I started working with Neural Nexus, anger was a constant shadow in my life, affecting my relationships, my work, and how I viewed myself. I felt trapped in a cycle I couldn't break out of, reacting to situations in ways I later regretted. From the very first session with Yan, I felt a glimmer of hope. His approach to anger management was unlike anything I'd experienced before. Yan didn't just offer temporary fixes; he worked with me to understand the root of my anger and equipped me with practical tools and strategies to manage it effectively.

About me
The unexpected journey most therapists chose their profession after university. My path was different. At 17, I enlisted as a volunteer in the French military. Over the next two decades, I would serve in:

  • Paratrooper units
  • French National Police
  • Anti-Riot Squad operations
  • Undercover investigations
  • Executive protection details in hostile environments
I learned to read people instantly. To stay calm when chaos erupted. To make split-second decisions that could save lives. 

To manage fear, stress, and adrenaline as tools rather than obstacles. 

What I didn't expect was how all of this would prepare me for my true calling: helping others master their own minds.
From External Battles to Internal Transformation
In 2009, I moved to Australia—a fresh start that would change everything.
While continuing international security work (including deployments to Africa with the US Department of Defense), I began studying the science behind human behaviour and mental resilience.

What fascinated me: The same mental techniques I'd used to stay calm under chaos could be systematically taught to anyone struggling with anxiety, stress, or self-doubt. I pursued formal education in:

  • Bachelor of Cognitive Science
  • Advanced Diploma in Brain and Bahaviour
  • Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy
  • Diploma in Counselling
Why My Background Makes the Difference
Understanding Real Pressure: When you tell me you're stressed, I don't just empathise—I've lived extreme stress. This gives me instant credibility with high-performers who feel misunderstood by traditional therapists.

Reading People: Years of reading body language and assessing threats translates to deeply understanding what you're not saying—the real issues beneath the surface symptoms.

Building Resilience: I don't just treat anxiety; I teach you the same resilience-building techniques special forces use—adapted for your life.

Global Perspective: Having operated across continents, I understand cultural differences and the unique challenges of international professionals.
My Approach
I combine three evidence-based modalities:

Clinical Hypnotherapy: Accessing your subconscious to reprogram limiting beliefs and anxiety patterns

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Identifying and changing thought patterns that create stress

Neuroscience Application: Understanding how your brain works to create lasting change

Unlike traditional talk therapy, I work at the root level—where your mind creates the stress responses you consciously experience.

Services

Increase Memory and Focus

In the corporate world, a sharp memory and focused mind are invaluable assets. My program, combining clinical hypnotherapy and behavioral therapy, is specifically designed to enhance cognitive functions, particularly memory retention and concentration. This dual approach not only improves work performance but also contributes to overall mental well-being.

Enhance Communication Skills

This approach addresses both the psychological and practical aspects of communication, enhancing interpersonal interactions in professional settings. Hypnotherapy delves into the subconscious to identify and resolve deep-seated fears or beliefs that hinder effective communication, such as public speaking anxiety or fear of judgment developing empathy and emotional awareness, key components of effective communication.

Leadership Development

To help in identifying and overcoming deep-rooted beliefs that may hinder leadership potential, such as fear of failure or impostor syndrome. Clarifying personal and professional goals, aligning them with leadership roles and responsibilities. Enhancing the ability to understand and manage emotions, both personally and within teams, is crucial for empathetic and effective leadership. Equipping leaders with strategies to handle conflicts constructively and maintain a positive team environment.

Stress and Anxiety Management

For professionals at all levels who are experiencing stress and anxiety, whether due to workload, workplace dynamics, or the challenges of balancing professional and personal responsibilities. It's particularly beneficial for those in high-pressure roles or those who struggle with work-related stress and anxiety. Stress and Anxiety Management program offers a dual approach to tackling these challenges, providing both immediate relief through hypnotherapy and long-term solutions through behavioral therapy. By addressing the root causes of stress and equipping individuals with effective coping mechanisms, we aim to foster a healthier, more productive work environment and a better quality of life.

Pain Management

At the heart of our practice lies a transformative approach to pain management, integrating the profound therapeutic powers of clinical hypnotherapy with the practical, skill-building framework of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). This unique combination not only addresses the physical manifestations of pain but also delves deep into the psychological patterns that contribute to one's pain experience. Clinical hypnotherapy offers a serene escape into the subconscious, enabling patients to uncover and heal the underlying emotional factors of their discomfort. Simultaneously, CBT equips individuals with robust coping mechanisms, empowering them to reshape their thoughts and behaviors towards pain. Together, these therapies forge a holistic pathway to relief, fostering a profound sense of well-being and mastery over one's pain journey.

Addiction

We embrace a groundbreaking approach to addiction management, skillfully blending the transformative potential of clinical hypnotherapy with the structured, empowering strategies of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). This innovative combination addresses addiction on multiple levels, offering a comprehensive treatment path. Clinical hypnotherapy serves as a gateway to the subconscious, revealing and addressing deep-seated emotional triggers and patterns that fuel addictive behaviors. Concurrently, CBT provides a practical framework for individuals to develop coping strategies, enhancing their resilience and ability to manage cravings and avoid relapse. Together, these modalities offer a dynamic and personalised journey towards recovery, fostering lasting change and a renewed sense of control and freedom in one's life.

F.A.Q

Do you really work with international clients, or is this just for Australians?
Absolutely! While I'm based in Sydney, Australia, the majority of my clients are actually international. I currently serve professionals across 15+ countries including the United States, United Kingdom, Singapore, Canada, New Zealand, UAE, Hong Kong, and throughout Europe. My practice is specifically designed for global delivery—everything from my scheduling system to payment processing to session delivery is optimised for international clients.
What makes you different from local therapists I could see in person?
Several key differences:
  1. Unique Background: My 20+ years in high-stakes military and police operations give me specialised insight into stress, crisis management, and high-performance under pressure that most therapists simply don't have.
  2. Combined Expertise: I integrate clinical hypnotherapy + CBT + neuroscience into a comprehensive approach, rather than using just one modality.
  3. Global Perspective: Having worked internationally across three continents, I understand cultural nuances and the challenges of global professionals.
  4. Specialisation: I focus specifically on helping high-performers, professionals, and executives—not general practice.
  5. Convenience: No commute, no waiting rooms, complete privacy in your own space.
Many international clients choose to work with me specifically because they want specialised expertise that isn't available locally.
How do I know if you can work with clients in my country?
I work with clients in virtually all countries. The only requirements are:
  • Stable internet connection for video sessions
  • English language proficiency (sessions are conducted in English)
  • Legal compliance (you must be 18+ or have parental consent)
During your consultation, we'll confirm that we can work together effectively based on your specific location and needs.
Time Zones & Scheduling
What time zones do you accommodate?
I offer appointments across a wide range of time zones to serve my global clientele. Whether you're in:
  • Americas (EST, CST, MST, PST)
  • Europe (GMT, CET, EET)
  • Asia-Pacific (SGT, HKT, JST, AEDT)
  • Middle East (GST, AST)
We can find appointment times that work for both of us.
I've never done online therapy before. Will it really work?
Yes! Research consistently shows that online therapy is equally effective as in-person sessions for most conditions, including anxiety, stress, depression, and behavioral change. In fact, many clients report feeling more comfortable and open in their own environment.
I've been conducting online hypnotherapy since before the pandemic and have refined the process to be highly effective. You'll receive the same quality of care, personalised attention, and clinical expertise as in-person sessions—with added convenience and privacy.

Final Note

My commitment to international clients:
I understand that choosing to work with a therapist in another country requires trust. You're trusting me with:
  • Your privacy and confidentiality
  • Your time and money
  • Your mental health and wellbeing
  • Your personal stories and vulnerabilities
