Mission Statement
Rachel Parga

You matter, and I am on a mission to inspire and empower you to win, whatever winning looks like for you! Everyone can succeed if they remove the self-sabotaging layers that cause them to feel like they’re failing, and I can show you how.

My life hasn’t always been as wonderful as it is now and so I understand not only what it’s like to feel the grip of internal chaos, but also what steps to take to live a more meaningful, happy, and fulfilling life. I have experienced childhood trauma, homelessness, divorce, and depression. Hypnotherapy changed my life many years ago and my healing journey brought me to my greatest joy, becoming a healing guide for others so they can reconnect with their authentic self and live freely and peacefully as the person they always wanted to be.

I am a professionally trained Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist and Founder of the Maxcebo® Method. A holistic system carefully crafted using elements of psychology, neuroscience, spirituality, and my life’s experience both personally and professionally. I work for the NHS as a Health & Wellbeing Coach and am also trained in NLP, Life Coaching, EMDR, Massage and Mindfulness. I love helping people to discover who they are authentically, and how best to achieve the life they can truly value and enjoy living. As a qualified massage therapist, I founded a holistic mind/body treatment called, Maxcebo® Hypno-Massage, and I am proud to be the first and only therapist to offer this holistic treatment in the UK!

Maxcebo® Hypno-Massage is a combination of relaxation massage, mindfulness, and hypnosis to include the mind and body collectively, to induce deeper healing, deeper self-love and the releasing of stress and anxiety that is often held within the body.
I am also a holistic well-being course author, and my accredited Level 3 & 4 courses are on the OFQUAL Register. I also run workshops and groups for Weight Loss, Anxiety & Stress Reduction, Law of Attraction, Menopause Symptoms, Self-Hypnosis, and Holistic Health & Wellbeing. If you are interested in any of these groups or courses, please email with your interest and further information will be sent to you.

All my services are underpinned by my very own Maxcebo® Method. A holistic system carefully crafted using elements of psychology, neuroscience, spirituality, and my life’s experience both personally and professionally.

Feeling much gratitude for the work I got to do with Bob and Rachel. The individual and group sessions have been great! Both are warm, insightful and inspiring people and even though I only did one full hypnotherapy session with Rachel it really helped me pave the way to where I am now. Valuable work! Giving me tools and ways to believe I hold the power to shape my journey and experience in life.

I have now had a number of Hypnotherapy sessions with Rachel that followed some coaching sessions. Rachel has helped me to understand my anxious mind and to be at peace with who I actually am. I now recognise triggers and can control anxious thoughts much more effectively. The Hypnotherapy sessions have helped me to relax significantly and already the benefits are clear to see. I have no hesitation in recommending Rachel. I wish I had done this years ago!

I have found my sessions with Rachel to be really helpful, informative and relaxing. Rachel has such a friendly, approachable manner. I have found it is very easy to open up to her about my feelings and the difficulties I have been facing. Rachel provided a clear and helpful explanation about how hypnotherapy works and discussed how this and other techniques might be helpful to me. I am already feeling calmer and more capable of dealing with the situations I was finding difficult and by using the techniques Rachel has shown me I am already noticing that I am better able to reduce feelings of anxiety when I am triggered. Rachel is clearly passionate about helping people and provides a calming and relaxing experience in her sessions, I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Bob & Rachel have delivered a number of ‘wellbeing’ workshops for the college now on Mindfulness, mindset & resilience. They’ve delivered workshops onsite and remotely and on all occasions, both staff and students have come away with a greater understanding of self and practical guidance. Bob & Rachel also provided follow up access to online resources after the event which has been invaluable to refer to – Thank you both!

Hi, my name is Sarah, growing up I had family problems from being mentally and physically abused, which has been challenging growing up. I've tried to help my self in many ways, I then just hit a wall. I had good days and then 10 bad days, I had just started to think this must be how my life is just meant to be... until I saw an advert to get hypnotherapy. I was extremely nervous until I was introduced to Rachel... who instantly put me at ease and has reassured me from day one, I have had problems in my childhood which has caused me to struggle with trust so feeling I can trust Rachel is key to the hypnotherapy sessions. I feel I can relax and work on who I really am is starting to give me hope for my future ME!! I highly recommend Rachel and wouldn't hesitate starting hypnotherapy.
