About
Dr Bruce Alexander
I bring 27+ years of clinical experience to hypnotherapy, working with clients across Melbourne and Australia-wide via telehealth. My approach is calm, structured, and grounded in the evidence — focused on the patterns that actually maintain the problem rather than the surface symptoms.
Alongside my practice, I’ve been interviewed and quoted on hypnotherapy and habit change in print, radio and online over the years — you’re welcome to have a look through my media and press page if you’d like a sense of the conversations I’ve been part of.
