About me
If you could think your way out of anxiety, fear, habits or overwhelm, you probably would have by now.
These responses are not just in your mind... they live in your body too.
- The racing thoughts.
- The tight chest.
- The overthinking.
- The panic.
- The knot in your stomach.
- The exhaustion from constantly trying to hold it all together.
Your body reacts before your mind has chance to catch up.
That’s why understanding things logically doesn’t always stop the anxiety, fear or habits from happening.
I offer a free 15-minute exploratory call where we can talk through what’s going on, what you’re struggling with and whether this feels like the right fit for you.
Every person is different so every session is tailored specifically to you, your experiences, your nervous system and the patterns you are struggling with. There is no “one approach fits all” here.
I support people who:
- feel anxious, overwhelmed or constantly “on”
- overthink everything and struggle to relax
- feel mentally exhausted from masking or constantly trying to cope
- struggle with focus, switching off or emotional overwhelm
- panic over physical symptoms or sensations in the body
- struggle with phobias or fears that feel irrational but very real
- cannot switch off or sleep properly
- feel emotionally exhausted from always trying to cope
- feel stuck in habits like smoking, vaping or emotional eating
- lack confidence or feel trapped in self-doubt
I work using my Fast Brain Framework™, combining hypnotherapy with psychotherapy, EMDR and NLP to work with the automatic survival responses underneath anxiety, stress, phobias, sleep problems, low confidence, smoking, vaping, emotional eating and behavioural patterns.
Not just what you think, but what is driving it.
This work helps your mind and body begin responding differently, so change no longer relies on constant effort, avoidance or willpower.
You do not have to stay stuck in the same patterns forever. If you are ready for things to change, I can help you create meaningful and lasting change.
Sessions available at times to suit, including evenings and weekends.
Single sessions: £95 - £120
3-session hypnotherapy package: £240
Smoking & vaping cessation: £350
I support clients with anxiety, stress, phobias, sleep problems, confidence, low self-esteem, emotional overwhelm, stop smoking, vaping cessation, emotional eating and nervous system dysregulation, including clients with ADHD-related challenges.
If you’re recognising yourself in this, this is exactly the kind of work I support people with every day.
You don’t have to keep managing this on your own.

Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor and clinical hypnotherapist, with additional training in EMDR, NLP, parts-based approaches, and transformational and heart-based practices.
I work with anxiety, overthinking, low self-esteem, stress, habits such as smoking and vaping, weight-related challenges, emotional overwhelm, and the impact of past experiences, including grief.
Many of the people I work with are exhausted from constantly trying to hold everything together. They often understand things logically, but still find themselves stuck in the same emotional reactions, fears, habits or patterns underneath.
My approach focuses on the deeper patterns driving how you think, feel and respond, including the subconscious processes behind habits, emotional reactions and automatic behaviours.
Every person is different so I do not use a “one approach fits all” model. I draw from different approaches depending on what you need, so the work is tailored specifically to you, your experiences and the challenges you are facing.
Alongside running my private practice, I also volunteer as a counsellor within a local hospice, supporting people through grief, loss and some of life’s most emotionally difficult moments.
This work has deepened my understanding of how anxiety, overwhelm, fear and emotional pain can affect people beneath the surface, even when they appear to be coping on the outside.
Qualifications and training:
- Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling Practice
- Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy
- Diploma in Smoking Cessation
- Diploma in Weight Management
- Diploma in Parts Therapy
- Diploma in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming)
- Diploma in Transformational and Heart-Based Practices
- EMDR Practitioner
- Reiki Master
This allows me to work in a way that is both practical and in-depth.
Hypnotherapy can help create change at the level where habits and automatic responses are formed.
Parts therapy can help resolve the internal conflict that often keeps people feeling stuck.
EMDR supports the processing of difficult or overwhelming experiences.
NLP helps shift unhelpful thinking and behavioural patterns.
Transformational and heart-based practices can support deeper self-awareness, emotional healing and connection with yourself.
This work is about more than just coping on the surface. It is about helping you feel calmer within yourself, understand your patterns differently, and create lasting change that feels real and sustainable.
If you are tired of just coping and ready for things to feel different, I can support you in creating lasting change.
Member organisations
Hypnotherapists may become members of the General Hypnotherapy Register if they satisfy certain criteria with regard to both training and ongoing requirements as determined from time to time by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC). Members are either registered at Practitioner status (which confirms that the GHR acknowledges their qualification to practice), or Affiliate status. Although Affiliate level registrants will have completed a sufficient number of training hours to equip them to commence seeing clients on a limited basis, the GHR does not acknowledge them to have yet been trained to full practitioner level. All GHR Registered Practitioners are required to accept the published Code of Ethics and Complaints & Disciplinary Procedure.
Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with
info 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.

Additional information
The first session can sometimes feel a little unfamiliar. Everything is new: the space, the process, and perhaps hypnotherapy itself.
That’s completely normal.
Nothing needs to change overnight. Often, people first need time to settle, feel safe and begin trusting the process.
That’s why giving yourself more than one session can be important, because once you feel more comfortable, the deeper work can really begin.
I usually recommend a minimum of three sessions for each area you’d like to work on, as this is where we begin to move beyond the initial settling-in phase and create more meaningful, lasting change.
Single sessions are charged between £95 and £120 depending on when they are booked.
To support continuity and momentum, I also offer a hypnotherapy package of 3 sessions for £240 payable upfront. Sessions are to be used within 6 months of purchase and are non-refundable.
This structure helps create consistency and gives you the space to fully engage with the process, rather than stopping just as things begin to shift.
Smoking and vaping cessation sessions are slightly different and are offered at £350. This includes two sessions, with practices to support you in between sessions.
I understand that life is busy, so I can offer sessions outside of typical working hours, including evenings and weekends.
We can talk everything through on an initial call if you have any questions.
