About me

Hi, I’m Jen, a Solution-Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist. I specialize in helping you manage anxiety, stress, low moods, and sleep issues so you can regain control and feel more balanced. My approach is modern, gentle, and effective, and my clinic—nestled in the serene, semi-rural setting of Aughton, Ormskirk—offers a calm and private space for healing.

A Positive, Future-Focused Approach
Our sessions will be uplifting and solution-driven. Rather than revisiting past struggles, we’ll focus on building positive habits, boosting confidence, and reducing stress and anxiety. I’ll help you replace negative patterns with healthier ones, rebuilding your self-esteem and emotional resilience.

Empowering You to Take Control
My approach is all about finding solutions that work for you. Instead of feeling weighed down by problems, we’ll focus on practical steps that bring real change, helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.

A Tranquil Space for Transformation
My clinic is set in the peaceful surroundings of Aughton, Ormskirk. It provides a safe and supportive environment where you can feel at ease. Together, we’ll work to create the changes you desire.

Specializing in Women’s Health
With a background in Midwifery and Sexual Health, I understand the unique challenges women face. I offer specialized support for the following:

✔️ Fertility struggles

 ✔️ Pregnancy & postnatal well-being

 ✔️ Birth trauma recovery

 ✔️ PMS, PMDD, & hormonal imbalances

 ✔️ PCOS, endometriosis & menopause

✔️ Sexual Dysfunction

Managing Anxiety & Stress-Related Disorders
Anxiety often worsens physical and mental health conditions, but hypnotherapy can help you regain control. 

Whether you’re struggling with health anxiety, general stress, or phobias, I use gentle techniques to bring about the changes you desire to reduce fear, build resilience, and restore your peace of mind - helping you to feel like you again.

Tailored, Effective Sessions
During our initial consultation, we’ll create a clear, personalized plan to ensure the most effective treatment for you.

✨ You deserve to feel calm, confident, and in control. Let’s start your journey to well-being today.
