About me
Specialising in Anxiety, Confidence and Sexual Wellbeing for Men and Women
Whatever has brought you here, you're probably hoping something in your life could feel different and you want to be happier in some way.
Perhaps you'd like to feel calmer, more confident, enjoy your relationships more, improve your sexual wellbeing, stop smoking, or simply feel more like yourself again.
My aim is to help you move towards a happier, healthier and more confident version of yourself. Together, we'll work to create meaningful, lasting change so you can find more pleasure and enjoy the life you want to live.
As a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Personal Performance Coach, I work with people on a deeper level, exploring the thoughts, beliefs, fears and patterns that may be influencing how they think, feel and behave. To achieve this I using a unique blend of clinical hypnotherapy, coaching, mindfulness, NLP, cognitive behavioural therapy and EFT. Everyone is different, so the sessions are tailored to the unique individual that you are.
I provide clinical hypnotherapy in Plymouth, supporting clients throughout Devon and online across the UK.
Before becoming a Clinical Hypnotherapist, I spent over 25 years in the Royal Navy as a Physical Training Instructor, including 12 years working within Defence Primary Healthcare rehabilitation as an Exercise Rehabilitation Instructor. Throughout my career I've supported people through physical, emotional and psychological challenges, and it made me notice something, that lasting change rarely comes from willpower or motivation alone or telling people what to do.
It comes from working with the mind because I truly believe that when our mind is healthier, many other parts of our lives naturally begin to improve too. We often make better decisions, look after ourselves more, make better food choices, move more, our relationships become stronger, we sleep better and life simply becomes happier and more enjoyable.

Specialising in Sexual Wellbeing
I have completed additional training in Psychosexual Hypnotherapy and specialise in supporting both men and women with sexual wellbeing, where difficulties are psychological or emotional in nature.
Our sexual wellbeing is an important part of our overall health and happiness, yet it's something many people find incredibly difficult to talk about. When things aren't working as we'd hope, it affects more than just our sex life. It can impact confidence, self-esteem, relationships, intimacy and the way we feel about ourselves.
So often, the problem isn't that your body has stopped working or there is something wrong with you. It's that your mind has started getting in the way. We can become caught up in worry, pressure, past experiences, insecurities or self-doubt. Instead of being able to relax into the moment, your mind starts analysing, predicting or monitoring what might happen next, making it much more difficult for your body to respond naturally. And this is where hypnotherapy can really help.
One of the biggest things my clients tell me is how much of a relief it is simply to talk openly about what's been happening. These are conversations that many people have never had before, often because of embarrassment, shame or fear of being judged. But you're not alone, and there's nothing to be embarrassed about.
I always provide a calm, supportive and completely non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and honestly. Together, we'll work to understand what's getting in the way, reduce the pressure you're experiencing and help you reconnect with a healthier, more pleasurable, enjoyable and fulfilling sex life.

What you can expect
Whether you're here looking for support with anxiety, confidence, smoking cessation, sexual wellbeing or another challenge, my aim is to help you keep moving forward towards whatever it is you want to achieve, so you can enjoy a happier, healthier and more fulfilling life.
I don't believe people need fixing. We all experience challenges at different points in our lives, and sometimes we need the right support to move forward again.
Sessions are available online throughout the UK and in person at Plympton Therapy Rooms, Plymouth.
I offer a free, no-obligation 30-minute consultation, giving us the chance to talk about what's been happening, how I can help, what you'd like to achieve, and whether I'm the right person to support you.
If this feels like the right time for you, I'd love to hear from you.
