Supervision details
My aim is to provide you with a welcoming, safe and supportive environment where you can discuss your clinical work, explore your continuing professional development needs and if appropriate, gain support in building and maintaining a thriving therapy private practice.
About me
I qualified as a counsellor in 2008 and have run a successful private practice ever since. In 2015, I added hypnotherapy to my skillset when I qualified as a solution focused hypnotherapist. I hold accredited status with both the NCH for my hypnotherapy practice and the BACP for my counselling practice. In 2021, I obtained a First Class Honours Degree in Professional Development in Mental Health and in 2022, I gained a Level 6 Certificate in Therapeutic Supervision.
I'm a published author, having co-written the book 'The Art of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy: A Collection of Case Studies' with hypnotherapist colleagues. I'm also published in a peer-reviewed scholarly journal for a review into the effectiveness of group and self-help hypnotherapy in irritable bowel syndrome. I am also a visiting lecturer on the Foundation in Solution Focused Therapy course run by Livewell Southwest and University of Plymouth.

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.
