I work in a supportive, respectful, non-judgemental, targeted way with and for the person. The service is professional, confidential, private, relaxed and comfortable. Sometimes rapid, motivational techniques can be applied and other times a more sensitive approach works best.

I am a counsellor, psychotherapist, registered art psychotherapist, hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner, experienced couple counsellor, registered psycho sexual therapist , sex addiction counsellor, EMDR practitioner working in Shetland and also offer ONLINE and telephone counselling.

  • abuse
  • anxiety
  • dependencies
  • addictions
  • relationship issues
  • loss
  • trauma
  • and much more.

What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy induces a deep state of relaxation during which our subconscious minds become highly receptive to positive or new ideas. This is similar to the altered state which we experience when we daydream, or go about normal daily tasks on auto-pilot. If you want to change unwanted behaviours or habits, hypnotherapy can be a powerful means of doing so.

Hypnotherapy with a suitably qualified and experienced practitioner should always be safe, ethical and deeply relaxing, demonstrating respect for the individuals dignity.

Key details

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Hypnotherapist's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Hypnotherapist to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
