About me
YOUR STORY MATTERS - even the parts you may think are irrelevant today, have shaped where you are and who you have become.
I have 20 years' experience offering mnemodynamic hypno-psychotherapy to help you change old emotional patterns. Using conscious regression, combined with talking therapy, we can identify where those patterns started and then enable you to reassess and reframe those experiences. As a result, you are free to respond in new ways rather than being drawn back into unconscious habits. In my experience this is the only technique to provide consistent, long term results.
It can help if,
You have tried talking therapy alone and it has not been effective,
You keep repeating the same patterns of behaviour or keep getting into the same situations,
You have suddenly developed a phobia with no direct cause (for example, you suddenly can't drive on a motorway, but you or someone close hasn't been involved in an accident).
You have tried solution focused hypno-therapy and old patterns have returned.

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 Register of Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists (NRHP) was formed to promote the skilled use of hypno-psychotherapy. There are a number of different membership categories e.g. Associate 1, Associate 2, Associate 3 and Full Member, with the different categories standing for different levels of training and experience. Regulated Members of NRHP are obliged to meet all the rules and regulations of NRHP including the Code of Ethics and Professional Practice and the Guidelines for Supervision and Continuing Professional Development.
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.
Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with
Information about health conditions (*)
Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting hypnotherapy.
