About me

I am a qualified hypnotherapist, counsellor and life coach, and I also facilitate meditation/mindfulness groups.

My ethos is that you, the client, are central to the process. After your complimentary Discovery Session, we will work together in deciding the way forward and honouring your uniqueness and individuality, by adopting a person centered approach. For some people, there will be the need to look at your past history and resolve those issues before you are able to move forward with your life. And for others, you will only want to work on a solution without going back into the past. Each of these options has its own merits., and the direction we decided to follow is based on you!

I offer a FREE Discovery Session so all prospective clients so we can find out if hypnotherapy can be of help to you, and to make sure that you feel comfortable with me - which in my mind is essential to the therapeutic process.

I work within in the areas listed below, if what you are looking for help with is not listed here please feel free to contact me. I also have personal experience of dealing with children with autism and to enable me to work with children, I have an enhanced DBS.  I am experienced in working work domestic abuse, trauma, grief and bereavement, these life events are often accompanied by anxiety, stress, depression, self worth, confidence, along with chronic health conditions.  I don't hold the answer but with the right support and environment we can navigate your journey together to create the change in your life that you want to see.

As a person centered counsellor, the client is central to the process and I offer a safe space in you are supported to address feelings, relationships and behaviours, whilst exploring the deeper underlying experiences and history that lies within, enabling you to set goals in support of your journey. This journey is a very personal journey and one in which you needs to feel safe, listened too and supported, which is why I offer you a complimentary Discovery Session to see if we are the right fit for one another.

Further information

I have included a few reviews from my clients that where posted on my Facebook page: (as above)

"Hello everyone, just thought I would express my experience with Working with Lynda. I have been working with this lovely lady for 5 weeks now and she has turned my life around and i'm truly amazed at the results I have seen. She is absolutely amazing at her job and is very passionate in wanting to help people and very giving of her time to ensure you get the best results, it is all about you when you work with her, she delivers alot more than just the hypnosis itself, she can also listen to you and help make sense of your feelings and why you do the things you do, her experiences in life have given her such a variety of knowledge which I feel aids her in being such a caring and loving person wanting to help others. She is a very genuine lady and I am so glad that our paths met and that she helped and is still helping me rebuild my life. If you think this could help you then I highly recommend this lovely lady 110% and she will change your life that is for sure, you won't be sorry, you will see your life through a fresh pair of eyes. I am truly thankful to Lynda for all of her time and work and I am enjoying working through my journey of discovery and wouldn't want to do that with anyone else." HC

"Lynda has helped me immensely over the past five weeks. I have found the hypnotherapy sessions incredibly relaxing; I am in pain most days but during the sessions my pain goes and it is wonderful to have experienced such a feeling of deep relaxation, peace and calmness in what is usually a chaotic world. Lynda has guided me safely towards improved self esteem and a sense of control over negative influences in my life. I can highly recommend this type of therapy with Lynda to anyone who is feeling emotionally drained, tired or low. She is an amazing lady with a really empathic nature who can really help sort out deep-rooted issues. I have realised I do not have to suffer any more, I can use her recorded sessions to help restore balance in my life, whenever I need to. Thank you Lynda, you have helped me more than I imagined was possible." DW
