About me

I specialise in helping people reduce anxiety and panic, to eliminate fears and phobias, to take control or break habits and to improve health and chronic conditions. I also can help you lose weight through a classic hypnotherapy sessions or hypnotic gastric-band procedure or to stop smoking.

I personalise all hypnotherapy sessions to you, so that you can achieve what you want easily and effectively.

Each session can be recorded if you wish then the MP3 recording is sent immediately to you at the end of your session. This helps you to embed new, positive and realistic thought patterns and ways of being, so making change easier and more effective.

I recognise that choosing the right therapist for you is important so I offer a free, 30 minute, no obligation telephone consultation. I also include a lot of information on my website www.thehealingmind.co.uk.

Member organisations

CNHC
Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC)

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.

GHR
The General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR)

Hypnotherapists may become members of the General Hypnotherapy Register if they satisfy certain criteria with regard to both training and ongoing requirements as determined from time to time by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC).

Members are either registered at Practitioner status (which confirms that the GHR acknowledges their qualification to practice), or Affiliate status. Although Affiliate level registrants will have completed a sufficient number of training hours to equip them to commence seeing clients on a limited basis, the GHR does not acknowledge them to have yet been trained to full practitioner level.

All GHR Registered Practitioners are required to accept the published Code of Ethics and Complaints & Disciplinary Procedure.

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.

Other areas of hypnotherapy I deal with

  • Making the Most of Your Menopause and Reducing Symptoms
  • Enhanced Fertility Support

There are a number of reviews on my website https://www.thehealingmind.co.uk/testimonials  here is just one to give you an example:

I have had hypnotherapy before with limited success so to have had such an amazing experience with Karen at The Healing Mind has literally blown me away!
She is a lovely person to begin with, but what is so extraordinary is her methodology. She listened to my rambling on our telephone consultation the week before our appointment and somehow managed to pinpoint my requirements. Throughout the session ( in her beautiful, calm treatment room ) I was so relaxed and impressed by her understanding of my needs.
I immediately felt better- but emotional- after we finished, and in the following days felt like a weight had lifted from me.
I can’t wait to see her again next week.
Highly, HIGHLY recommend. "

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Hypnotherapist's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Hypnotherapist to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

The treatment room is on the ground floor and can be accessed with a standard size wheelchair from the rear of the premises. Please call for more details, to ensure I can meet your requirements. Alternately can I offer home visits within the area.
