About me
Helping you break free from anxiety, overthinking and overwhelm so you can feel calm, in control, and able to enjoy life again.
If you’re constantly stuck in your head, replaying situations, feeling tense for no clear reason, or struggling to switch off you’re not alone.
Many of my clients come to me feeling:
-overwhelmed by their thoughts
-anxious for “no obvious reason”
-mentally exhausted from overthinking
-stuck in cycles of stress, worry or self-doubt
-like they’ve lost their sense of calm or confidence
The good news is: these patterns can change.
How I can help:
I am a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist, offering a modern, practical approach that combines talking therapy with clinical hypnosis.
My approach helps you to:
-reduce anxiety and stress
-break cycles of overthinking
-improve sleep and mental clarity
-build confidence and self-belief
-feel more in control of your thoughts and emotions
Rather than focusing on the past, we focus on where you are now and where you want to be and gently retrain your mind to move in that direction.
Most clients find the process relaxing, empowering, and surprisingly practical.
What to expect from sessions:
Sessions are calm, structured and supportive.
We typically begin by understanding what’s been going on for you and what you’d like to change. I then help you learn how your mind works in a simple, easy-to-understand way, so things start to make sense, often for the first time.
Each session ends with a guided relaxation (hypnosis), which helps your mind begin to shift unhelpful patterns and reinforce positive change.
You remain fully in control at all times.
I regularly support clients with:
-anxiety and generalised worry
-stress and burnout
-overthinking and rumination
-sleep difficulties
-confidence and self-esteem
-phobias and fears
-feeling “stuck” or emotionally overwhelmed
If you’re unsure whether hypnotherapy is right for you, we can talk it through in a free initial consultation.
Why this approach works:
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is built on a combination of modern neuroscience, talking therapy, and relaxation techniques.
It works by helping your mind shift out of “threat mode” and back into a more balanced, calm state, where clearer thinking and emotional control become easier again.
Change doesn’t need to be overwhelming. It often happens gradually, in a steady and sustainable way.
About me:
I am fully registered, qualified and insured, and a member of recognised professional hypnotherapy bodies, including:
National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH)
Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC)
Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH)
I am committed to providing a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where you feel listened to and understood.
My approach is warm, practical, and focused on helping you achieve real, lasting change, not just short-term relief.

• “Ella is amazing, so warm, welcoming, and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She has really helped me change my mindset and has helped me focus on the brighter things in life.

“From the 1st moment I met Ella I felt completely at ease, she is so understanding and shows a genuine desire to help. Her knowledge and explanations of anxiety are excellent and can help to make very positive changes to your life. I can highly recommend Ella, she has been a godsend to me facing major surgery which frightened the life out of me and sent my anxiety spiralling out of control. Ella - you are the most sweetest positive kind soul and I cannot thank you enough. “
“Ella has been truly wonderful, she’s helped with my anxiety more than I thought possible. She is very patient, non judgmental, kind and incredibly knowledgeable. I now have an understanding of what’s going on when I’m anxious and how to deal with but more importantly how to recognise the signs and prevent it. I have already recommended her to a friend. She really has been a godsend.”
