About me
If you suffer from anxiety, overthinking and lack confidence, I can help you to feel more calm and relaxed, putting you back in control of your thought processes so that worries aren't taking over your life. I understand fears and phobias, having undergone hypnotherapy for a phobia of needles myself. I will work with you in a gentle, supportive way which helps you to deal with these challenges. I welcome those of you who are grappling with stopping smoking. I can help you to stop in a way that is both supportive and non-judgemental, explaining how patterns of behaviour form and how you can change them.
I like to give clients the freedom to live their lives without fear and anxiety dictating and to be free of habits such as smoking. I can also support low mood symptoms, which often accompany anxiety, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and chronic pain.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at CPHT, Bristol, Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy and am currently completing the Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma (HPD) Level 4. I receive regular supervision and undertake continuing professional development (CPD).
I have a background in Psychology and English Literature and I particularly enjoy supporting clients to stop smoking.
Member organisations
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.

info 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.
