About me
Are you experiencing anxiety and overwhelming negative thoughts, feeling desperate and stuck? Do you suffer with insomnia, struggle with low self-esteem, low mood? Are you looking for a way to overcome a fear or phobia that might be limiting your life? Are you finding it difficult to cope with the symptoms of menopause? Maybe you would like help to cope with exam nerves and preparation. Or maybe you would like to improve your sports performance. Or you would like help to support your child. Are you looking for a better way to manage pain?
Everyone experiences life differently and I take time to listen to you to understand how you are feeling and then we work together to help you to make changes that will lead you to the life you want to be living.
Sessions consist of talking therapy and hypnosis and this is a very effective way to change thought patterns and behaviours, enabling you to feel confident and happy to continue to make positive changes to your life.
The approach I use is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Together we focus on your desired future that you want, in order for you to achieve lasting change. This is a talking therapy, using techniques from CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy), NLP (Neurolinguistic programming) and solution focused brief therapy. We follow this with hypnosis to consolidate the changes needed to make life better for you. I love helping people and personally find the process incredibly rewarding.
I discovered Solution Focused Hypnotherapy when I was struggling with anxiety and it changed my life. I feel privileged that I am now able to help other people find clarity, resilience, confidence and peace through hypnotherapy like I did.
If you would like to find out more, please contact me to discuss how I can help you. There's no such thing as a silly question so if you've any doubts or concerns or just want to better understand what I offer please do get in touch. I offer a free phone call for you to find out more.

Member organisations
The CNHC encompasses many types of alternative therapy, including hypnotherapy.
In order to be admitted to the register a practitioner must have studied to the National Occupational Standards for that profession/discipline, or have reached the equivalent of the National Occupational Standards through other relevant training or at least three years of experience and been assessed by their peers.
A practitioner must also have professional insurance and agree to abide by the CNHC Code of Conduct, Performance and Ethics.
The National Council for Hypnotherapy holds one of the largest registers of independent Hypnotherapists in the United Kingdom and strives to maintain the highest standards among its members.
There is an agreed Code of Conduct, an established Complaints & Disciplinary Procedure and all members are obliged to maintain comprehensive Public Liability & Professional Indemnity Insurance, maintain regular CPD (continuing professional development) hours, and attend Supervision when needed.
The Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH) was set up to provide information about a modern form of Hypnotherapy and its associated benefits to members of the public. The main aim of the AfSFH is to spread awareness of the benefits of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Its secondary aim is to support Hypnotherapists in their businesses by encouraging good practice and self-care.
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.
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.
