About me
A dedicated Hypnotherapist with over 13 years of experience as a Mental Health Nurse.
My journey into Hypnotherapy is deeply rooted in both my professional background and personal experiences. Having faced my own struggles with mental health and addiction, I may understand the challenges you're facing and the courage it takes to seek help.
Throughout my career, I've worked in a variety of unique environments, including acute admissions and forensic settings, including prisons and international refugee camps. These experiences have enriched my understanding of the human psyche and the complex factors that contribute to struggles with mental health and addictive behaviours.
My training in Counselling & Psychotherapy complements my Hypnotherapy practice, allowing me to provide a holistic approach to healing. I am passionate about creating a therapeutic space where you feel truly heard and supported. My approach is person-centred and tailored to your individual needs and struggles. Creating a space in which you can hopefully understand yourself better, which paves the way for you to treat yourself in the self-compassionate way you deserve
I offer sessions in person and online, with a free 15-minute initial consultation so that you can get a sense of what it would be like to work together. I would encourage you to take some time to visit my website or reach out via email or phone to hopefully begin this process today.

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

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.

Further information
Over my career, I have developed a broad understanding of Mental Health & Addiction, which can be applied to my practice as a clinical Hypnotherapist.
Mental Health & Addiction are intrinsically linked, which is why a holistic approach is so important when supporting individuals. However, over time, I have developed a particular interest in certain areas:
- Anxiety and Depression
- Smoking Cessation (as a smoker for 10 years, I can appreciate how difficult this addiction is to stop and how this one change can naturally ripple positively into so many aspects of your life)
- Gambling, a hidden epidemic which, unfortunately, does not get the recognition of the true harm it causes
- Anger Management
- ADHD & Autism
