About me

Hi, I'm Kim and I am a Hypnotherapist, Counsellor, Psychotherapist, Art Therapy life coach and Creative Counsellor giving me the flexibility to help you with whatever you may be dealing with.

I offer face to face and online services as well as short term and long term therapy.

Contacting someone for help can be daunting, you may be feeling apprehensive and wondering what to expect. I will provide you with the confidential space you need to talk about anything that is concerning you, an opportunity to explore and process your experiences and bring out effective change.

There is nothing more healing than being heard by someone who cares. I believe every client is the expert on their own lives. My aim is to guide you in your journey to a better well-being state of mind.

We have many beliefs, feelings and emotions that can hinder the way we cope with day to day life, talking about these can help empower your sense of self.

During Hypnotherapy the unconscious mind begins to see the goal clearly and so starts to believe in it. The unconscious will search for ways to move obstacles out of the way to reach the goal. This is a unique path for each client.

As a qualified, professional and fully insured hypnotherapist you will be supported in your journey in a relaxing and pleasant way.

Hypnotherapy is often a shorter form of therapy as the goal can be reached quickly. This will depend on the client and the goals you hope to achieve.

I have worked in Forensics alongside the Police for over 20 years, so I have an understanding of the stresses and what frontline services undertake on a daily basis. 

I have Fibromyalgia, I understand the pain this can cause, coming to terms with life changes and how to deal with them.

I am a lover of nature and the seasons, being creative and crafting for that bit of me time. I like to integrate creative therapies into sessions if the client is interested and willing.

Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice.
