About me
My name is Chris and first and foremost I'm a father to two incredible daughters, I live in Dorchester, Dorset, I have a passion for helping people improve their lives.
I am a clinical hypnotherapist and life coach.
When it comes to therapy I specialise in helping clients with:
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Self-confidence issues.
- Phobias
- Sleep Issues
- Quitting Smoking
- Changing Habits
- Setting and Achieving Life Goals.
What to expect - working together.
When you first get in contact I will suggest arranging a free online exploration call. During this call we can discuss your life, the issue you'd like help with and, most importantly, see if I am the right person to help you.
It is recommended that for your appointments you find yourself somewhere that you feel comfortable, where you aren't going to be disturbed and somewhere that you don't feel like you'll be overheard by other people in your house.
I tend to use cognitive behavioural therapy techniques combined hypnosis, mindfulness and relaxation. I suggest that on an initial basis 4 sessions should give us a very good idea as to whether our sessions together are being successful.
You are never tied into any contract or obligation and you're welcome to have sessions spaced out to suit your issue as well as your financial situation. As you become more self-sufficient with your issue, appointments tend to get spaced further apart until you feel you have things under control. You're always, of course, welcome to return for sessions whenever you feel you need to.
If you have any questions at all, then feel free to get in touch. It will come straight through to me and it’ll be me that responds to you personally.
Looking forward to speaking with you,
Chris

I have been helping people overcome their issues since I qualified in 2014. I completed my training at the Anglo-European College of Clinical Hypnotherapy, and gained a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy. I am also an Accredited Practitioner of The General Hypnotherapy Register.
My particular areas of interest are self-confidence, anxiety, self-esteem, phobias, changing negative thinking and achieving life goals. I also hold practitioner certificate in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming).
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.

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.

Testimonials
"I’m becoming the person I knew I could become"
"Before seeing Chris I was very anxious, extremely stressed and also feeling rather unhappy with where I was in life but after 4 sessions I feel like I’m exactly where I need to be in life. I’m becoming the person I knew I could become if I just took control over my anxiety and I couldn’t have done this without Chris support and strategies. My relationships with the people around me are stronger than ever and the relationship with myself is one I thought I’d never have but I’ve started to love the things which I always disregarded.Sarah, Hampshire
"Something I hadn’t done in 8 years"
I contacted Chris for my severe travel anxiety which I had suffered with for years. I can honestly say it’s the best decision I made as Chris is very understanding and knowledgeable about every aspect of my anxieties. I had a few sessions and afterwards I managed to do a journey without having a panic attack, without feeling completely overwhelmed by the whole thing which I hadn’t done in 8 years! That definitely was down to these sessions with Chris as he is so good at his job – he has taught me so much of how to deal with situations that I used to find impossible. L, Dorset
"The best night’s sleep I’ve had in months!"
"Chris was great, very understanding and non-judgemental. He really listened to get a whole picture of my insomnia and provided advice and techniques to help with the issue. That night I had the best night’s sleep I’ve had in months! I refer back to the techniques we discussed whenever I’m feeling restless and my mind is racing."Lucy
