I’m passionate about using therapy as a preventative approach to wellbeing, building an inner toolbox to use when life inevitably throws its challenges at us.  Creating a more helpful, resilient mindset allows us to be more in control of how we react and bounce back from the lows and blows.

I work with my clients to help them understand why they think, feel and behave in the way that they do.  If you know how your car functions you’re more likely to identify what’s wrong when it isn’t working to its best, and how to fix it – it’s the same with your mind.

One of my favourite parts of my job is seeing clients have those “light bulb” moments where they realise that they don’t have to continue being a victim of their thoughts and feelings any more; that they really can regain control and make changes.

I incorporate hypnotherapy at the end of each session to allow your conscious mind to relax (something we all need in our busy lives), while your subconscious – where the majority of your thought patterns and behaviours are held – can be accessed in order to bring about long-term change, however that might look for you.

Being solution focused means that we don’t focus on the problem during sessions – instead we look for solutions, those tiny first steps that snowball into bigger things.  This means that clients tend to leave sessions feeling positive and motivated, not to mention relaxed after hypnosis.

Hypnotherapy can help with a wide range of issues, including, but not limited to: stress management, anxiety, low confidence, quitting smoking, poor sleep, pain and weight management.
