Profile
With over sixteen years experience as a therapist, I’ve been helping people who feel unhappy, anxious, stuck, unmotivated (to lose weight, for example) tied to a habit (such as smoking), suffering with pain, can't sleep or who may be going through something different altogether.
Extraordinarily powerful and effective, hypnotherapy can provide positive and lasting
solutions for a range of psychological, emotional and habit-related issues experienced at home, work or elsewhere.
I accept referrals from individuals, employers, Counsellors, GPs, Social Workers, Human Resource Managers, Self-Help groups and other interested organisations.
Visit my website for more information about the way that I work. Email or give me a call if you have any queries or would like to book an appointment.
