About me
Hi, I am a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist / Psychotherapist, I help clients find their happy, confident, calm self, after they have not felt that way for a while. I am based in Carlisle, but I see most of my clients online, which is great when they live all over the Country. I do also offer in person appointments too.
To book a free consultation, where we chat about how I can help you, please feel free to text, leave a voicemail or e mail me and I will get back to you within 24 hours .
So here is a little explanation of what Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is and what issues it can help with.
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH) is a type of Psychological talk therapy with some fun relaxing Hypnosis included. (The fun bit is what my clients call it). It differs slightly from other types of Hypnosis as we do not dig up past traumas or go into detail about past hurtful events. instead we chat and find the steps you need to take to get to your preferred future and be your best self. And it works quickly and equally well for 5 year olds to 105 year olds.
It helps and heals many mental and sometimes physical problems, as a lot of physical pain can be aggregated by being stressed.
Some of the things I have helped clients with are:
- Anxiety
- Stress
- Sleep Disorders
- Sports Performance
- Weight Management
- Phobias Addictions
- Self Harm
- OCD
- ADHD
- Confidence Issues
To name a few.

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.
