About me

Hi I’m Debbie at peaceandminds.com

A Clinical Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and Counsellor based in Bedfordshire. Blending neuroscience, therapy, and storytelling to make emotional wellbeing feel less clinical, more human. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, overthinking, or just feeling emotionally cluttered- I offer a compassionate, practical space where change doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. I can also help with phobias and smoking cessation.

My approach is rooted in neuroscience, and designed to help you shift gently from survival mode into a mindset that supports growth and self-trust. Sessions are structured but soothing, evidence-based yet empathetic. I believe therapy should feel like a deep exhale, not a deep dive into discomfort.

📍 In-person and online sessions available

🌟 You’ll always leave with something practical and a little lighter
