About me
I am an experienced mental health professional with a strong background in Mental Health Nursing, having worked across a variety of services, including adult mental health, child and adolescent care, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, and eating disorders.
Building on this foundation, I went on to train as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist. With a focus on neuroscience and neuroplasticity, I use Solution Focused Hypnotherapy to help clients make lasting changes in their lives. This model is grounded in the evidence that our brains can change and adapt, and I work with clients to harness this potential and create meaningful, long term improvements.
With experience working with clients of all ages I support individuals with a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, low mood, trauma, phobias and life transitions with the goal of empowering them to make positive, lasting changes.
My approach is forward-looking, and solution focused, helping clients take control of their lives and move toward their preferred future in an empowering way.
In addition to Hypnotherapy, I offer Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Muss Rewind Therapy (a highly effective approach for treating trauma, PTSD, and phobias).
I have a compassionate, non-judgmental approach, and I am committed to creating a safe and supportive environment offering a person-centred, tailored approach, ensuring that each client receives the care and attention they need to move forward.
I continue to engage in regular professional development and receive ongoing supervision to stay at the forefront of best practices.
Clients tell me they like working with me because I am caring, empathetic and approachable. I listen without judgement and then we work together to find a lasting solution to your problem based on what you need.
My approach is forward looking and solutions-oriented. I am passionate in helping people to regain control of their life and get to where they want to be, rather than delving into the past.
So, if you'd like to know more about how I can help you, please get in touch with any questions.

A small sample of some of the testimonials I have gathered over the years. I’m honoured to walk alongside my clients and grateful for the trust they place in me. These words reflect their strength and the work we’ve done together.
- "I just wanted to thank you for your help. You have helped improve my confidence enormously, I am in a much better place emotionally! Meeting you has literally been life changing.......Thank you!" - S
- "Hi Laura, you changed my life seems extreme to say but I handle my anxiety and negative thoughts so well now. Many thanks" - SL
- "Just a little message to say a huge thank you. I certainly would not be where I am without having you to get me back on track" - A
- "Laura has really helped me get my confidence back. It was so helpful to speak with her and I found her manner and approach really conducive to prompting self-reflection and personal growth.It was the boost I needed at that time" - EP
- "My life went a bit topsy turvy, I decided to end the relationship I was in. This was absolutely the right decision for me, but led to a whole lot of change. I’m so grateful for the support I got – I felt less alone and more empowered because of it. I can think about how I want to feel, how I might know that I am on track, signs to look for, etc. I’ve been able to start living it, rather than dreaming it" - GS
- “I just wanted to send my biggest thanks for all of your input over the past few months. The holiday to Disneyland was a complete success, I can’t remember feeling so relaxed and at ease going into a holiday EVER and I had the best time. I was able to handle the travelling, the crowded shuttle bus, the food and the endless amount of shows and parades without any pangs of anxiety – I can’t recall any time in my life without anxiety hovering very close by to some extent. Thank you once again, your help has really made me reevaluate what I thought was impossible to do and I cannot wait to create more memories – it feels like a door to all sorts of possibilities is now open” - DP
- "Laura was really good and inspired me- I could feel her belief in me. She has been very compassionate and understanding around my learning disabilities and helped me find confidence and clarity. I moved out of a toxic relationship pattern that broke my confidence and began to build myself all over again" - VH
- “I first saw Laura when it felt like I was falling off a cliff – too stressed to see clearly. With patience and support she enabled me to retrain my brain to focus more on the positive and keep the less positive in better perspective” - H
- “My experience has brought so many positive changes to my life. Without doubt I feel that I have a much happier and more relaxed approach to life and to its challenges. Even after just a few sessions I had learnt techniques that helped me to manage my own thinking. I would highly recommend Laura, she put me at ease straight away and is so knowledgeable and professional and I am so grateful to her for helping me” - CP
-
"Just to say that this has helped create change not only in terms of positive outcomes, but in giving me a positive outlook too" - KG

- “I have used Laura for the last six years, I came to her because I have always suffered from anxiety, and more specifically health anxiety. My doctor recommended Laura to me and it was the best thing I have ever done. It has changed my life, the way I form my relationships and my patterns of thinking. I was sceptical at first, thinking ‘how can going into trance help me? It’ll never work. . .’ But, here I am 6 years down the line. Managing my mental health in a far more sustainable way than I was. Laura is a source of stability to my mental health and although I manage my anxiety much better than I used to, I continue to go to Laura for mental health ‘top ups’. Continuing to train my brain to be positive and solution focused. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Laura, she has a calm, kind and gentle nature and has a way to word things to suit the way my brain processes and thinks, allowing me to understand why I may feel a certain way or how I can combat those overwhelming feelings” - SJ
