About me

I began my initial training with the Northern College of Therapeutic Hypnosis in Leeds where, upon successful completion of written and practical exams set by the Medical Hypnotherapy Examination Board, I was awarded Diplomas in both Therapeutic Hypnosis and Clinical Hypnotherapy. Following this, I became a certified Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner and since then, I have continued to develop my therapy skills further with training in Psychotherapy, Advanced Hypnosis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I have also completed training in the Rewind Technique, which is a method for helping people who are experiencing high anxiety conditions such as phobias, trauma and PTSD. I trained in this technique with Uncommon Knowledge, who are one of the leaders in the field of Psychotherapy and Rewind Technique training.

I am an Accredited Member of The National Hypnotherapy Society. The society is the first and currently only hypnotherapy organisation to hold a register which is directly accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under its Accredited Registers programme. All members on the register must adhere to the society’s code of conduct and ethics, have undertaken appropriate training and qualifications, receive regular supervision and be fully insured as well as undertaking regular Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

As an experienced therapist, I am an approved Supervisor for the National Hypnotherapy Society and provide supervision for students, newly qualified and experienced Hypnotherapists. In addition to this, I sit on the Professional Development and Supervision committee for both The National Hypnotherapy Society and The National Counselling Society. I am also fully insured and hold a current DBS certificate.

I draw upon a wide variety of influences within the field of talking therapies including Hypnotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Eye Movement De-sensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), alongside counselling and psychotherapy approaches such as person-centred counselling and Human Givens, to help you explore your situation and feelings at your pace. With a special interest in anxiety, fears and phobias, I also see people with a variety of other issues too including public speaking anxiety, low confidence and self esteem, stopping smoking, weight loss, insomnia and stress management to name a few.

My focus is on enabling you to get to where you want to be; whether that's free from fear, anxiety or a habit. Or perhaps you want to stop smoking, lose weight or feel more confident Using a combination of hypnosis, NLP and therapy, I offer a calm and confidential space to help you make the changes that you need to move forwards in your life and be the person you want to be.

Book an initial consultation
If you're considering hypnotherapy, the first step is to book an initial consultation. This is an opportunity for us to meet and discuss your situation in more detail, as well as answering any questions you may have and deciding on the best options for you. The appointment usually takes around 60 to 90 minutes and we will do some hypnosis to introduce you to hypnotherapy and help you prepare for future sessions. Further sessions are around 50 minutes and are usually booked between one to three weeks apart, depending on your situation.
