About me

Hi, I'm Alan and I have over 20 years of experience as a hypnotherapist and an applied psychologist working in adult mental health in the NHS. Much of my work focuses on helping people deal with anxiety whether that is a general anxiety, phobias or more difficult anxieties such as trauma or OCD.

My approach is a combination of the best parts of the NHS recommended treatments for various conditions along with the use of hypnosis and cognitive hypnotherapy to enhance the effects of these.

I'll help you take a broad look at all the factors that affect how you feel and together we'll work on the most helpful changes and techniques that can give you the skills to make better choices moving forward.

Using a psychological approach combined with hypnosis has led to progress for many clients helping them change how they think, change behaviours and ultimately improve their quality of life. I also help a lot of clients learn how to manage chronic pain more effectively with hypnosis and OldPain2Go Methodology.

I also work with sports people, musicians and others who may have performance anxiety and confidence issues such as the yips or Focal Dystonia. The combined psychological/hypnosis approach is particularly effective for these.

For further information please email me here or call me.

Anxiety

Alan was recommended to me by a friend for my fear of flying. Very early on in the session I knew he was the man to help me conquer my fear. Not only was I calm on my next flight but I actually enjoyed it, a massive difference! Two holidays booked now for next year and no anxiety about flying.

Pain

I went to see Alan after being in tremendous pain for 5 months and being more or less housebound waiting for hospital appointments. A friend suggested Hypnosis and recommended Alan so with nothing to lose I made an appointment. I was sceptical and went in with no expectations but I left with much reduced pain and a spring in my step!

Thanks again Alan for your help today in relieving my back pain. 10 mins and woosh it was down from a pain level of 7 to a 2, who would have known it would be that quick! Very happy indeed x

Sports

After suffering a bad injury whilst playing for my professional football club my confidence and frame of mind towards football took a massive dent, I looked for some advice to get me back to feeling confident in my own abilities. I contacted Alan at TFL sports to see if he could help. After speaking to him this helped me believe in myself again and also get focused on what I wanted to achieve. This was to get back playing and enjoying football the way I used to. I would like to thank Alan and also say to anyone with troubles big or small to contact him and get advice.

Had a good friend that highly recommended Alan and had nothing but good things to say so I thought it give it a try. Alan has helped me with so much over such a short space of time, helped me completely refocus and motivate myself again. Made me aware of how to build confidence and feel positive about football again and bring back my enjoyment of the game. Thanks again!!

Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with

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.

Other areas of hypnotherapy I deal with

I have experience working with Functional Neurological Disorder particularly around Focal Dystonia in musicians and athletes when it is inhibiting performance. Please get in touch if you want to find out more about this specialist area.
