About me
Do you find yourself overthinking, replaying conversations or worrying about things that haven't happened yet?
Perhaps you're feeling overwhelmed, doubting your decisions or questioning your abilities. Maybe you're stuck in a pattern you'd like to change, going through a difficult time or feeling that something is holding you back.
Or perhaps life is going well, but you'd like to feel more confident, achieve something important to you or simply enjoy life more.
What would you like to be different? And what might become possible if it was?
Imagine feeling calmer, thinking more clearly and trusting yourself and your decisions. Feeling more confident in who you are and what you can do. Making choices without so much second-guessing and feeling more able to enjoy the things that matter to you.
You don't need to have all the answers or know exactly where to begin.
Working together is about understanding where you are now, exploring what you want instead and making changes that matter to you.
How I can support you
People come to hypnotherapy for many different reasons.
You may be looking for help with anxiety, stress and overthinking, confidence and self-esteem, fears and phobias, unwanted habits and behaviours, stopping smoking or vaping, or navigating life changes and loss.
You may also want to build your confidence, feel more motivated, work towards a personal goal or make more of the opportunities in your life.
I believe meaningful change isn't about becoming someone else. Sometimes it's about reconnecting with who you are, recognising the strengths and resources you already have, and discovering what you're capable of.
My approach
I start with you.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Our work is shaped around you, what matters to you and what you would like to be different.
I'm naturally curious about what makes us think, feel and respond in the ways we do. I take time to listen and understand your experiences, helping you recognise thoughts, patterns and responses that may be getting in the way.
My work draws on clinical hypnotherapy, coaching and mind-body approaches. Rather than focusing on any particular technique, I focus on you and the changes you want to make.
Hypnotherapy is a collaborative process, and you remain in control throughout. My role is to guide and support you as we explore new perspectives, possibilities and ways forward that feel right for you.
Our work can help you develop greater calm, clarity, confidence and self-trust, alongside insights and practical changes you can take into everyday life.
Taking the first step
I offer online sessions with adults throughout the UK and in-person sessions in Narborough, Leicestershire. You can choose to work with me from the comfort and privacy of your own home or in a welcoming therapy space.
I offer a free Discovery Call. It's an opportunity for us to talk about what brings you here, what you would like to change and how I may be able to help.
From there, we can decide together on the next steps.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist, with ongoing professional development in hypnotherapy and related areas of therapeutic practice.
My qualifications and professional memberships include:
- Clinical Hypnotherapy qualification
- Certified Hypnotherapist - International Alliance of Professional Complementary Practitioners (IAPCP)
- Member of the British Association of Therapeutic Hypnotists & NLP Practitioners (BAThH)
- Fully insured
- Ongoing professional development in hypnotherapy
Before becoming a hypnotherapist, I spent many years working with people, change and problem-solving across adult social care, training, business systems, organisational change and compliance.
Although these roles were different, they shared a common thread: listening to people, asking meaningful questions, understanding problems and supporting change. That experience continues to shape the way I work with clients today.
I qualified in Clinical Hypnotherapy in 2023 and continue to invest in professional development to build my knowledge, skills and therapeutic practice.
All of this experience has shaped how I work today: listening carefully, asking meaningful questions and focusing on what matters to you.
Member organisations
The British Association of Therapeutical Hypnotists (BAThH) was the first constituted body for Professional Hypnotherapists in the UK and a founder member of the United Kingdom Confederation of Hypnotherapy Organisations (UKCHO).

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.
