About me
Hi I'm Christine a Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist, though before all this, I managed a busy physiotherapy clinic. It was there I noticed something important: people weren’t just dealing with physical discomfort, they were also navigating the emotional impact of being unable to do the things they loved. Athletes benched from football, teenagers missing out on friends, adults feeling stuck and frustrated — their wellbeing took a real hit. I wanted to help them reconnect with their calm, confident, happier selves, without waiting for their bodies to catch up.
I’m based in Carlisle, but most of my clients see me online, which works beautifully when they live everywhere from the south coast to the Scottish borders. I also offer in‑person appointments for those who prefer a face‑to‑face chat.
If you’d like to book a discovery consultation — a relaxed conversation about how I can support you — feel free to call, text, leave a voicemail, or email. I always respond within 24 hours.
So, what exactly is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy?
It’s a modern psychological talking therapy combined with wonderfully relaxing hypnosis (my clients affectionately call this “the fun bit”). Unlike traditional approaches, we don’t dig through past traumas or analyse every difficult memory. Instead, we focus on the steps that move you toward your preferred future — the version of you who feels capable, settled, and in control. It works quickly and effectively for children, teens, and adults alike.
I’ve supported clients with mental overwhelm, emotional turbulence, sleep issues, sports performance, confidence building, phobias, unhelpful habits, and much more.

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.
