About me

WHO I AM AND WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU

For the early part of my adult life I suffered from severe anxiety as a result of childhood trauma. This in turn lead to addiction, relationship and a whole raft of other issues. After reaching rock bottom I decided enough was enough and undertook extensive therapy and research to cure myself. This I did and then decided to devote my life to helping others who were suffering with similar issues.

From my own experiences I realised that conventional therapy was often long winded and ineffective. So I set about developing my own simple, quick and easy treatment approach using hypnotherapy, related talking therapies and my own life experiences.  Over my many years in practice I have used these methodologies to help countless clients to live a much more satisfying, controlled and contented lives.

So if you want to

  • Stop feeling anxious every day
  • Conquer your fears 
  • Become motivated to achieve your goals
  • Let go of a trauma or bad relationship
  • Release childhood abuse issues
  • Beat Addictions (smoking, alcohol, cannabis, cocaine)
  • Silence that negative voice in your head
  • Easily manage your weight
  • Stop unwanted habits?
  • Enjoy much more confidence and self esteem

And much more besides

I Can Help You
Through the safe and natural power of hypnosis and related talking therapies, I can help you overcome these unwanted issues, habits or fears so that you can

  • Free yourself from needless worry & anxiety
  • Create inner confidence and self esteem
  • Be unaffected by what others think of you
  • Release yourself from past issues
  • Attain better mental & physical health
  • Conquer your fears
  • Beat addictions
  • Resolve trauma
  • Improve the important relationships in your life
  • Be free to discover your purpose and meaning
  • Create an unshakeable resilience to cope with life events
  • Sleep better than you have in a very long time
  • No longer feel the need to compare yourself or compete with others

My Approach
I take a very informal and friendly approach approach to every session we have together. I like to find out about every facet of your issue, so that I am able to create a treatment that is totally customised to your needs. Using this approach I get tremendous and quick results and build great rapport and trust.

Testimonials
Here are a just a few of the testimonials I've recently received:

"I was recommended to see Mark as I was going through quite a toxic divorce and needed to deal with my trauma associated with it. After two sessions with Mark I’ve already feel my mindset has shifted dramatically and was able to apply the teachings from the first session into a difficult personal situation and I felt empowered. I have also been able to deal with the grief of a deceased parent I had buried for over 17 years and have felt much lighter from this. Thank you for all your work so far Mark, cannot wait to see how much more you can help me on my healing journey. - Janki Punja 2023"
 

"Mark is brilliant, makes you feel relaxed, comfortable and removes any feeling of judgement. It had been years since I had seen a therapist, but after a few minutes with Mark, I felt like i was chatting to a close friend, completely openly!

The therapy had a pretty instant impact, his technique is something I hadn't come across before.. hypnotherapy has always been something that I didn't consider or want to try. But, I finally did it, Anddddd thankfully I did!

Mark did reassure me that if there is any hesitation or doubt about hypnosis, I could have normal one-to-one therapy with him. So there isn't any pressure from him at all! I would personally recommend going all in and giving the hypnotherapy a chance, it made a massive difference to me and helped so much! - 

Thank you again Mark! - Mandeep Khosa 2023"

"Following losing a close family member two years ago during the Covid lockdown, I was in desperate need of help to free myself of the continued and constant sadness. During those two years, I had talked and talked it through with many people but I was not able stop myself from feeling an incredible loss and lack of closure. It eventually became exhausting.

I found Mark’s details online and gave him a call immediately to explain how I felt. He saw me that same day and I was so grateful for that. Shortly afterwards, I underwent hypnosis for the first time in my life.
For anyone who feels like they’ve talked to someone (either through counselling or to friends) for ANY type of emotional issue but they still do not have the tools to help themselves, Mark is your man.
He explains clearly the reasons why you’re feeling what you’re feeling and then through hypnosis he gives you the tools you need to help yourself.

I can’t thank Mark enough. I’m a changed person. I feel I have the mindset and tools to tackle anything life throws at me. I had 5 sessions and they helped me resolve a lot of deep set bad habits such as overthinking and upset.

If you’re considering hypnotherapy, I would strongly recommend Mark. He’s attentive, understanding, compassionate and non-judgmental. He’s very experienced and I can honestly say, hypnotherapy is the best thing I’ve done to help myself.
With Mark’s help you will definitely gain the tools you need to grow and fix unresolved issues of any type.
Be brave and take the steps to change - Mimi Mimi 2023"

"Mark has helped me with my past issues through hypnotherapy. He has a unique ability to extract and address issues I was trapped with that happened long time ago. I have dealt with it now with Marks help and feel like I have a 'clean sheet' to be myself again and carry on with my life as it should be. Feels GREAT! Thanks Mark. - Chris Holt 2023"

"Brilliant! I had 6 sessions face to face with Mark and I honestly cannot thank him enough. He has given me a better understanding of human nature without any pretence. A fact based down to basics informative no nosense talking therapy and Hypnosis. It has given me the tools needed to lead a better life. Also a greater understanding of the behaviour in others too! Which in turn helps me on a daily basis. I will always be so grateful that I found Mark. Litterly by googling local Hypnotherapists. My luck was in that day. Thank you Mark, you are utterly brilliant!! Mandy M 2023"
