About me
I'm an experienced Hypnotherapist and Talking Therapist and my focus is on enabling you to be the person you want to be. I combine a range of therapies including Hypnotherapy, NLP, Counselling, CBT and Mindfulness to help you overcome the problems or issues that are holding you back and preventing you from living the life that you want to lead.
I often see people who are experiencing a range of problems and issues including:
- Anxiety & Panic Attacks
- Confidence & Self Esteem issues
- Fears & Phobias
- Public Speaking
- Stopping Smoking
- Weight Loss
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Migraines & Tension Headaches
- Insomnia & Sleep issues
- Stress
- ...and many more
Therapy Sessions
During your first session, we'll discuss your situation in more detail, including your past experiences and goals, along with your role in therapy sessions. You'll have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have and then we'll move on to the therapy part of your session. This may involve a blend of Hypnotherapy, NLP and Counselling, combined with other talking therapies as appropriate. There is no 'one size fits all' approach in therapy because everyone is different.
At the end of your session, we'll talk about what you can do at home before your next appointment. I may give you an audio download to listen to, or you may be asked to complete other therapy tasks such as keeping a diary or practising self help techniques. These activities are designed to enhance the work done during your sessions and enable you to develop new skills and responses to help you achieve your goal(s).
In future sessions, we'll talk about your progress since your last session and then continue with your therapy. Your sessions are about working together to help you make the changes that you need to get to where you want to be. Hypnotherapy, Counselling and other talking therapies have a good track record in helping people to make lasting changes. However, motivation and participation are the real keys to your success, so you need to play your part too.
Every situation is unique and people respond differently, depending on the type of therapies used. Many people see me for between 4 to 6 sessions and often notice positive changes after the first or second session and sometimes people may take a little longer. People often begin to feel differently within a few weeks and sometimes just a few sessions are all that is required. Just because you've experienced a problem or issue for a long time, it doesn't always mean that it will take a long time to let go of it.
Free Online Consultation
If you have any questions or are unsure whether therapy is right for you, I offer a free 20 minute online initial consultation via Zoom. This is an opportunity for us to meet, discuss what you'd like to change and how we can work together. I'll also explain the different therapy options and we'll talk about the number of sessions you might need.
Training, qualifications & experience
I began my initial training as a Hypnotherapist with the Northern College of Therapeutic Hypnosis in Leeds, gaining Diplomas in both Therapeutic Hypnosis and Clinical Hypnotherapy. Following this, I achieved certification as an NLP Practitioner and since then, I have continued to develop my therapy skills with further training in Psychotherapy, Mindfulness and CBT. I am also trained in the Rewind Technique, which is a method for helping people who are experiencing high anxiety conditions such as Phobias, Trauma and PTSD.
I have been in practice since 2007 and am an Accredited Member of The National Hypnotherapy Society; the UK's only hypnotherapy organisation to hold a register which is accredited by the Professional Standards Authority. Alongside this, for several years, I was also a member of the society's Professional Development & Supervision Committee, which was responsible for overseeing CPD and supervision standards within the organisation. As an experienced therapist, I am also a qualified Supervisor, providing clinical supervision for students, newly qualified and experienced Hypnotherapists.
I regularly update my training and attend various CPD courses and workshops so that I have access to a wide range of tools to help you get to where you want to be. I am also fully insured and hold an Enhanced DBS Certificate.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Hypnotherapy Society is a Learned Society whose primary purpose is the advancement of the knowledge of hypnotherapy and the fostering of professional hypnotherapy expertise through training, accreditation and continued professional development of their members. The Society seeks to contribute to public wellbeing both through the use of hypnotherapy and by ensuring that hypnotherapists are safe, competent and ethical in practice.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Information about health conditions (*)
Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting hypnotherapy.
