About me
As an ex-serviceman I have a ready insight to service and blue light personnel attitudes and thinking, which affords me a a level of insight to what a client may be experiencing by way of PTSD and other connected disorders. My experience with helping currently serving and ex-service personnel along with all blue light professionals, has given me the opportunity to work with, and help, people from as long ago as Viet Nam, N'Ireland and, more recently Bosnia, Iraq and Afghan War veterans.
I also work with children and adults with learning difficulties (Dyslexia, ADD, etc) and very often with children considered to be "Slow Learners." To me the classic "Slow Learner," is someone who hasn't yet found their particular learning style - and everyone has one.
Training, qualifications & experience
I first trained with Woodbury Counselling and was first recognised as a Licentiate Member of The Hypnotherapy Society, in 2001 (Diploma in Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy).
Since returning to the UK in 2019 I have brought myself up to more modern standards by retraining with The Quest Institute, which I completed in April 2022.
Much of my work has been with ex-service personnel helping people recover from the Viet Nam era through to Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan.
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.
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.
