About me

Stressed, anxious, unwell or in pain?

If you are stressed, anxious, experience chronic pain or have a chronic illness and you would like to explore whether Hypnotherapy, combined with other mind based therapies is the solution you have been searching for, then please read on or contact me to talk further.

I offer a step by step solution focussed approach, one that over the years has achieved proven success in changing peoples fears, stresses, symptoms, and the unhelpful habits, thought process and behaviours that often accompany living with both anxiety and chronic health issues.

Whether you are stressed or anxious about one particular aspect of your life, wanting to feel more confident, calmer, assertive or gain more pleasure, or if you have a long standing more complex issues, the combined approach of Hypnotherapy, with other powerful Mind Based Modalities can offer you a fast, effective and long lasting solution.

Having spent over a decade working as a Hypnotherapist, Coach, Counsellor, IEMT practitioner and Mindfulness teacher and more recently the Owner of the Healthful Mind Clinic & Wellbeing Centre in West Moors, Dorset, (voted Hypnotherapy Practice of the Year 2021 in the Southern Enterprise Awards!) I have a considerable amount of knowledge and experience in helping people address both the physical and emotional aspects of these conditions.

My Journey:

On a personal note, I came to do what I do after struggling with my own complex health issues and anxiety, all of which had affected me from an early age. It was NLP (neuro linguistic programming) that first showed me how empowered I could become when I stopped looking outside of myself for the answers.

2 Years later and I was qualified as a Professional Life Coach, Counsellor and Hypnotherapist and for the first time in my life I was back in control of my health and my life! It has been a slow and steady journey from then, but I continue to go from strength to strength, even though many of my health issue remain - I have Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder that comes with many other quirks and crazy issues.

It is not what is "wrong" with me that matters, it is how it affects me that counts. As well as recognising what is right!

Anxiety, stress, many health issues and chronic pain are after all our bodies way of communicating with us that something needs to change. The key to resolving these issues comes from listening and learning what change is needed, and most importantly knowing how to make the changes that will bring the biggest benefits to the quality of your life. It might not be possible to change the diagnosed illness but there are so many options in the way that illness can affect you.

IEMT Integral Eye Movement Technique offers a very fast and effective way of making that change right at the core of your problem, your unconscious mind. Hypnosis is then a great way to establish the benefits of that change in your everyday life.

The Healthful Mind Clinic & Wellbeing Centre

My therapy practice is based at my the Healthful Mind Clinic & Wellbeing Centre in West Moors. I opened the clinic in May 2023 after spending the previous 2 years in consulting rooms in Wimborne and almost 10 years working from home.

Expanding the business has enabled me to enrol a team of other experienced therapists and practitioners, so we can offer a comprehensive functional health services alongside the mind based therapies. This is especially important and the health of our mind directly affects the health of our body and vice versa. 

Am I the right person to help you?

Having tried everything myself I understand how hard it can be to put your trust in yet another promised solution. This is why I offer a free introductory consultation and why you can view a number of videos and masterclasses on this site, so you have a real understanding of whether working together is right for you.

I work with clients individually, online or in clinic as well as running group programmes and classes including a 4 week intensive pain management programme and IBS relief courses. All our work together is supported by downloadable recordings.

The clinic offers a variety of other services that can support you on your healing journey so feel free to take a look before booking your introductory consultation.
