Profile

You already have the answers and solutions that you need. My role is to re-connect you with those inner resources

I am an experienced Clinical Hypnotherapist and Stress Management Consultant. My practice in therapy is based on the strong belief that we have the potential to transform our experience. This can be achieved by using the inner resources within our minds. Hypnotherapy is an effective method that can help access these resources and empower the individual to achieve their full potential.

Before training as a hypnotherapist, my career was in the health and fitness industry, teaching and coaching. My work has brought me into contact with people of varying backgrounds who have often sought motivation from very challenging situations. Being effective in this role has meant listening without judgment and observing with an open mind. It has also meant communicating at an appropriate level that maintains a respectful relationship and directs the individual to achievement of their next goal.

I recognise the important role that physical health plays within our lives. But a vital part of how we direct our lifestyles is based on our beliefs, values and emotions, shaped by positive and negative past experiences. My training as a hypnotherapist has helped me recognise how anxiety, stress, depression, low self-confidence and low self-esteem can inhibit the development of our emotional health and well-being. It has also equipped me with therapeutic tools that can encourage growth and positive change.

I am a registered therapist with The Hypnotherapy Association and a senior registered practitioner with The General Hypnotherapy Register. I have been in successful practice since 1997 and have worked with The DTR Clinic, The Heath Hospital and local companies such as Companies House. As a qualified teacher, I teach complementary therapies in adult education. I maintain registration requirements for continuous professional development, I am CRB checked and fully insured.
