How I Can Help You

I am a solutions focused hypnotherapist, which means that I will help you to resolve your issues and feel better in a short time frame without the need for lengthy therapy- Whether it's anxiety or IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) symptoms,  or anything else - you can talk to me 

I have a great deal of experience of working with many people over a whole range of issues- including;

managing stress and reducing anxiety.

Additionally, I am a HypnoIBS® practitioner and help many people manage their IBS symptoms (irritablebowel syndrome), using an evidence based approach enhanced with hypnosis/relaxation. Although hypnotherapy is not a cure for IBS, it has been shown to be effective in the management of symptoms. 

So, if you would like to have more control In your personal and/or working life? Are unhelpful thought patterns, habits and beliefs holding you back? Let's have a conversation. Let's start working together to rewire those beliefs and change those patterned behaviours, as you begin to feel more positive and motivated towards your life goals. Let's start the journey.

My Background

I have been a solution focused hypnotherapist since 1999. Previous to that I  had many years experience working in a commercial, office environment where I gained valuable "real world" insights into the effects of exessive stress both on a personal level and those of my colleagues. I began my journey as a hypnotherapist because I wanted to learn more about the human mind and learn how I can help people.

What Is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy uses the principle that you have 2 minds: Your Conscious- the logical and analytical part, and your Subconscious- the creative part that runs in the background. Throughout the day there is a flow back and forth between your conscious "Now" and your subconscious, (the part that we are not conscious of). Your everyday experience and feelings and reactions are filtered through your subconciously held beliefs. Your subconciously held beliefs are a mixture of helpful and unhelpful resources which have been formed though personal experience over your lifetime.  Hypnosis is best described as a state in which your body and conscious mind are totally relaxed, allowing a state of focus and communication with your subconscious mind. Your subconscious is influenced by imagination and is open to suggestions that help you to form better beliefs and undo those limiting beliefs that are holding you back.

The state of hypnosis is acheived by you sitting back in a comfortable chair and listening to my voice as I take you through some relaxing breathing patterns and ask you to relax various muscles, progressively leading you into a dream-like state. The experience will make you feel deeply relaxed and is enjoyable. It is a state between sleep and wakefulness- like daydreaming, which we all do many times throughout the day. After each session you will experience greater levels of energy and good feelings. 

You will always be in control during a hypnosis session as you will never lose awareness. 

Benefits of Hypnotherapy

I can help you to become unstuck, feel better, feel positive, feel more relaxed and gain a greater sense of control over your life.

My view is that you have the right to enjoy a full and meaningful life. Please look through my profile to get an idea of some of the areas of work that I have experience with.

Additional Services

In addition to the "therapy" element of hypnotherapy, I also offer regular relaxation, visualisation, and de-stress sessions for individuals or groups, including training in the art of self hypnosis- where you can learn a valuable life skill that you can use on a regular basis in order to address life's challenges.

I am available for talks and demonstrations for private groups or corporate clients. Please contact me to discuss.
