Profile

I run a busy Hypnotherapy and Coaching practice from West Molesey and I always make time to talk to prospective clients.  When looking for a hypnotherapist, it’s so important that you feel comfortable talking to the therapist and the only way you’re going to know that is to talk to them before you book your appointment; that way you can ask all the questions you need answering before you can make an educated choice about who you want to see.

Because I am busy with clients, my phone will often be answered by my answering service (a person, not a machine) and then I will get back to you in between clients or at the end of the day. That way I can be sure I have enough time to give you the attention you need.

I have a wealth of experience and training, as you will see from the edited highlights listed below and if you choose to come and see me, you will be seen in a private quiet room, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. There you will be able to relax back into a big black leather chair and sort out the problem that brings you to this site.

Problems Helped
Anxiety  - panic attacks, heart racing, cold sweats, trembling,
Insomnia - can't get to sleep or can't stay asleep, tossing and turning all night.
Depression - and all the difficulties this brings into a person's life
Bad habits - nail biting, hair pulling, nose picking etc
Relationships - from breakdown to not being able to find a partner
Alcohol abuse - drinking too much or getting nasty when you've had a few
Fears and Phobias - everything from buttons to spiders.  You won't surprise me.
Smoking cessation - Lost track of the number of people I've helped break free Weight Loss - No magic bullets here but a way to tune back into your own natural self regulating mechanisms, instead of following diets for the rest of your life.

Other areas of hypnotherapy I deal with

Epilesy

I originally trained in Hypnosis to help people control their Epileptic seizures using a combination of Aromatherapy and Hypnosis. I worked for a time under the guidance of Dr Betts Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Birmingham who as a Neurologist had discovered that by combining smell and hypnotic relaxation it was possible to train the brain to relax away from the therapy room by using the smell as a trigger. This was significant because a lot of people who suffer from Epilepsy have a greater incident of seizure when they are stressed or anxious. By training them to relax using the essential oil smell, they were able to reduce the chances of them having a seizure quite considerably.

Domestic Abuse

Having worked as a Domestic Abuse Outreach worker, I have an insight into what people living in abusive relationships have to cope with and the steps necessary to make leaving possible.

NHS Work

Having worked for 2 years within the staff counselling service at Kingston Hospital, I now offer monthly Group Relaxation classes to Hospital staff.
