About me
I'm Laurence I've been helping people who have been experiencing mental health difficulties, in particular anxiety, stress related issues and low mood for over 30 years, working within the NHS as a Registered Mental Health Nurse.
I trained in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy as I believe that the therapy is effective in finding the solutions to overcome the difficulties we experience.
I will work with you to help you overcome difficulties experienced with low mood, stress/anxiety, panic attacks, phobias and OCD. I also offer a stop smoking session. I can help you with weight management, confidence and performance improvement.
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy focuses upon the solution not the problem. It utilises hypnosis to develop a relaxed state of mind in order to promote better communication between the subconscious and conscious mind. It combines with the latest neuroscience research in helping you gain an understanding of how your thoughts influence the way you feel and how to learn to focus on making positive changes to your life.

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 Council for Hypnotherapy holds one of the largest registers of independent Hypnotherapists in the United Kingdom and strives to maintain the highest standards among its members.
There is an agreed Code of Conduct, an established Complaints & Disciplinary Procedure and all members are obliged to maintain comprehensive Public Liability & Professional Indemnity Insurance, maintain regular CPD (continuing professional development) hours, and attend Supervision when needed.
The Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH) was set up to provide information about a modern form of Hypnotherapy and its associated benefits to members of the public. The main aim of the AfSFH is to spread awareness of the benefits of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Its secondary aim is to support Hypnotherapists in their businesses by encouraging good practice and self-care.
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.
