What makes my PMDD service superior to standard PMDD hypnotherapy
PMDD Hypnotherapy vs. The PMDD Naturopath Approach
Women living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) often explore hypnotherapy in search of relief from mood swings, rage, and anxiety. While hypnotherapy can sometimes ease symptoms in the short term, it rarely addresses the full picture of PMDD.
Camilla Clare Brinkworth, The PMDD Naturopath, has developed a comprehensive PMDD Transformation Programme that goes far beyond hypnotherapy. Her work combines evidence-based naturopathy, targeted nutrition, trauma-informed therapies, and Rapid Core Healing (RCH)—an advanced approach that integrates and surpasses traditional hypnotherapy.
PMDD Hypnotherapy vs. The PMDD Naturopath Approach

Standard hypnotherapy can provide short-term relief for PMDD, but Camilla Brinkworth’s integrative approach goes much further. By combining nutrition, functional medicine, herbal support, nervous system regulation, and trauma healing with Rapid Core Healing, she helps women globally move beyond coping and towards long-term relief.
Why Rapid Core Healing (RCH) Outperforms Standard Hypnotherapy
Most hypnotherapy services rely on suggestion-based scripts to calm the mind. While this may help temporarily, PMDD is driven by complex hormonal sensitivities, nervous system dysregulation, and trauma patterns.
Rapid Core Healing (RCH) is different. It combines the best of hypnotherapy with modern psychology and systemic methods. RCH allows clients to reach subconscious drivers of PMDD symptoms safely, without retraumatisation, and creates lasting shifts in just a few sessions. Unlike standard hypnosis, it addresses the why behind mood crashes—not just the surface symptoms.
A Truly Integrative Approach
Camilla’s programme goes far beyond hypnotherapy by weaving together:
Evidence-based nutrition: Personalised anti-inflammatory food plans, tailored for PMDD physiology and plant-rich values.
Targeted natural medicines: Clinical use of herbs like Vitex, Saffron, and Kava, plus key nutrients like magnesium and Ahiflower omega-3.
Functional testing: Blood and hormone tests to uncover deficiencies or imbalances that worsen PMDD.
Daily mind–body medicine: Yoga Nidra recordings, 11-minute nervous system resets, and PMDD-specific subliminals for calm and stability.
Systemic trauma healing: Family Constellations to gently release intergenerational burdens that amplify premenstrual reactivity.
Structured for Transformation
Unlike hypnotherapy alone, Camilla’s 12-week PMDD Transformation Programme is designed as a complete healing pathway:
Initial strategy session and full naturopathy intake
Individualised nutrition and supplement plan
2 follow-up naturopathy reviews
9 trauma-healing sessions using RCH and Family Constellations
Access to guided Yoga Nidra, nervous system practices, and subliminals
Ongoing support with capped client numbers for depth and continuity
This structure ensures women are not left piecing things together themselves but are guided through a carefully sequenced journey.
Safety, Experience, and Lived Understanding
Camilla holds a BHSc in Naturopathy, Graduate Certificate in Human Nutrition, and advanced training in Rapid Core Healing, Family Constellations, and Emotional Mind Integration. She collaborates with GPs and psychologists when needed, ensuring that care sits safely alongside medical treatment.
Importantly, Camilla has recovered from PMDD herself. She knows firsthand the devastation PMDD can cause—and the hope that comes with finding real relief. This lived experience allows her to meet clients with empathy, clarity, and confidence.
Why Choose The PMDD Naturopath Over Hypnotherapy Alone?
Most hypnotherapy services focus on symptom soothing. Camilla’s approach is different: she helps women heal at the root by addressing hormonal sensitivities, nutritional deficiencies, trauma patterns, and nervous system dysregulation in one integrated programme.
For women tired of cycling between despair and temporary relief, The PMDD Naturopath offers a path toward genuine, lasting transformation.
