Simone Reinhardt is a Clinical Hypnotherapist, Strategic Psychotherapist, and founder of Highway to Happiness- a happily thriving therapeutic practice dedicated to helping people unlock calm, clarity and confidence from the inside out.   Based in Sydney, Simone’s unique approach blends modern neuroscience with time-tested therapeutic techniques, empowering her clients to overcome anxiety, burnout, limiting beliefs and self-doubt- not through willpower alone, but through deeply transformative, subconscious work.   With a warm, compassionate style and a deep belief in each person’s untapped potential, Simone guides clients toward their own inner wisdom using Clinical Hypnotherapy and Strategic Psychotherapy.   Her method is grounded in evidence-based principles such as neuroplasticity and cognitive reframing- showing clients how to identify their unconscious thought patterns, challenge unhelpful narratives and consciously rewire the brain for positive, lasting change.   Simone’s clients are often high-achieving, heart-driven individuals- especially women- who feel like they’re 'doing it all' yet still falling short of their own expectations.   Through deeply personalised one-on-one sessions, Simone helps her clients step off the treadmill of perfectionism, access their true power, and finally reconnect with the joy of living in the present.   Originally from South Africa, Simone immigrated to Australia and rebuilt her life and career from the ground up- an experience that gives her a unique empathy and strength she now brings into her therapeutic work.   She’s deeply passionate about supporting others on their journey of reinvention, resilience and renewal.   Her signature message? “Right now, you’re living at least one of your dreams.”   Through her writing, retreats and therapeutic work, Simone reminds others that change doesn’t have to be hard- it simply has to begin.   And when you believe in yourself, behave in alignment with that belief, and take consistent, courageous steps forward…you become the version of yourself you’ve always known was possible.
