About me
Taking the first step towards therapy is a powerful move towards change. People seek support for many reasons, from difficulties with sleep, relationships, family life and work overload, to managing imposter syndrome, phobias, or simply feeling out of sorts without a clear reason. Whatever brings you here, everyone deserves to move forward feeling calmer, more confident and hopeful about the future.
I’m a fully qualified psychotherapist and hypnotherapist, specialising in Solution Focused Therapy. Our work focuses on the present and future, rather than revisiting the past, helping to rewire unhelpful thought patterns, break negative loops and build new neural pathways that support a more constructive perspective.
In our sessions, you remain the expert on yourself. My role is to support and empower you as you create small, manageable weekly goals that help build confidence, calmness and a greater sense of control over your life.
Choosing a therapist who feels right is essential, which is why I offer a free 1-hour initial consultation. This is a relaxed, no-obligation space to talk things through, ask questions and see whether working together feels right for you.
If you’re unsure whether therapy is right for you, or you don’t yet have the words for what’s going on, that’s completely okay. Many people begin simply by feeling overwhelmed or stuck. You’re welcome to get in touch in whatever way feels easiest, or to visit my website for a little more information before deciding on next steps.
Sessions combine solution-focused talking therapy, centred on the here and now, with hypnosis in the second half of the session. Using positive suggestion, your conscious and subconscious minds work together to support positive change and forward movement.
Sessions are available face-to-face at my practice on the Lancing/Shoreham border or online. You’ll find a supportive, non-judgemental space where you can feel comfortable, safe and understood.

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.
