About me
Welcome to Eyes Wide Closed Solution Focused Hypnotherapy!
Hi, I’m Sharon, a registered clinical hypnotherapist at Eyes Wide Closed Hypnotherapy based in Over Cambridgeshire. My journey into hypnotherapy began with a deep appreciation for the mind's capacity to influence our experiences and behaviours. Witnessing for myself how effective it can be, I was inspired to pursue it further. I gained a diploma in solution focused hypnotherapy from CPHT, one of the UK’s leading training providers, founded in 2002 by David Newton, a real pioneer in the field. I also hold the Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma from the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH). As a member of the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council, I adhere to the guidelines established by the Professional Standards Authority. This affiliation allows me to receive referrals from medical professionals.
I’m fully insured and hold an enhanced DBS check, so you can feel confident and safe working with me.
Beyond hypnotherapy, I also have a BA in Social Work and have studied psychology, sociology, criminology, coaching, and mentoring. With over 10 years of experience working with clients from all walks of life, I'm committed to helping people take back control and create positive change in their lives

Member organisations
Each member of APHP has received thorough training in hypnosis and hypnotherapy, is competent and conscientious, and abides strictly by a code of ethics. There are four grades of membership: Licentiate (LAPHP), Registered Member (MAPHP), Accredited Member (MAPHP(acc.)) and Fellow (FAPHP), with the different categories standing for different levels of training and experience. The Association for Professional Hypnosis and Psychotherapy is a member organisation of UKCHO (an umbrella body for the hypnotherapy profession in the United Kingdom).
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.

Reviews
“I loved my sessions with Sharon. I worked through some issues that had been bothering me for many years and feel like I have found some solutions and have the tools to move forward with a happier and calmer relationship around food. Thanks so much”
Helen
“I booked with Sharon after reading her credentials. I was keen to find the best hypnotherapist to suit my needs. We had a consultation and both agreed it was a good fit. My main focus was to help with pain and centering really. My condition meant I was in constant pain and I couldn't focus or move forward. I am greatful after having the sessions I have become calmer, it's eased my anxiety and in turn the pain. I am also sleeping so much better so my body and brain are getting the rest it needs. Bonus is I know I can reach out to Sharon again should I need a boost! I can highly recommend Eyes Wide Closed!”
Joyce
“I cannot thank Sharon enough for the incredible support she gave me in giving up vaping after over 5 years of daily use. I had tried to quit so many times before, but nothing seemed to stick—until I worked with her. Sharon has such a calm, reassuring presence and instantly made me feel at ease. Her hypnotherapy sessions were powerful and genuinely transformative. She helped me reframe my mindset, build confidence, and let go of the habit in a way that felt natural and empowering. I never imagined I could feel this free and in control again. If you're struggling to quit vaping or break any habit, I wholeheartedly recommend Sharon. She's amazing at what she does. ”

"I have nothing but good things to say, I‘ve had some amazing results! Sharon is lovely, I really looked forward to our weekly sessions and was sad when they came to an end. I have and will continue to recommend Sharon and solution based hypnotherapy."
Stacey
"I enjoyed our sessions tremendously. The therapist helped me focus on the positive things in my life and in my week. You have changed my life."

"I recently had some hypnotherapy sessions by Sharon specifically for clinical solution focus and I can honestly say they were thoroughly enjoyed and surpassed my expectations. While I didn’t know exactly what I wanted to achieve at the start, I thought any improvement to be slightly more focused and accountable would be beneficial. While I can’t describe what or how this has helped, I can say that the journey was useful, informative and beneficial. The anxiety I had before has lifted as I had a fear of dentists and was able to get through my dental treatment plan with little or no bother which would not have been the case previously as I had literally hid away from dentists for nearly 15 years due to my phobias previously. I am more accountable and productive in my personal and professional life by personal choice allowing me to look at things through a different perspective than when I started and overall just generally much calmer and less weighted down by stress, anxiety and worry. I also find listening to the sessions very peaceful and can always guarantee a deep sleep after listening to them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sharon and if you are on the fence, I can assure you, you haven’t nothing to lose but everything to gain. All in all it was a great experience with a great mentor and coach. Sharon explained the process clearly and took time to listen to the issues. I have been pleasantly surprised by the outcome of this experience."
Natalie
"After just a few sessions with Sharon, my sleep improved, and I started to feel more confident. Sharon helped me understand why I was feeling anxious. I have continued to listen to the recording she gave me to keep myself feeling good."
Jacintha
"I recently had some hypnotherapy sessions with Sharon, which were brilliant and totally exceeded my expectations. They helped me a great deal with personal anxiety issues that I had been having for some time. They have calmed me down well my mind and gave me a little more confidence and changed the way I look at things, and I actually quite miss our Friday sessions. I would highly recommend her for all your hypnotherapy needs."
