About me

Having spent many years working as a freelance business consultant in parallel to working as a therapist, I am now shifting the focus towards my therapy work.

Whilst living in London, I volunteered with the Samaritans in Wandsworth Prison, supporting the Listener Scheme and ran self development workshops at HMP Pentonville. I spent seven years living in Scotland where I worked with young offenders at Polmont YOI to support them in overcoming stress, insomnia, anxiety, grief, anger, self defeating behaviour patterns and various other issues they presented me with, using a variety of therapeutic approaches.

These experiences have taught me how fragile, yet resilient we all are and how powerful healing can occur when we are willing to let go of past conditioning and limitation and meet ourselves and each other without prejudice or judgement, taking off the masks we hide behind because of our fears. I feel passionate about empowering people to take back control over their emotional health and well-being by providing them with the relevant tools to manage their feelings and supporting them in making more positive choices that bring about the lasting change they desire.

I love helping people to realize that they are powerful creators who can shape their own reality by paying close attention to their thoughts, setting intentions and focusing on positive outcomes.

I work on the premise that all of us have an “inner knowing” and access to the resources and answers we need to bring about the changes we desire when we are open and curious.

What I offer

I can provide support to people of all ages who are ready to let go of a wide range of limiting beliefs, self-defeating behaviour patterns, anxiety, depression, stress and phobias or who are looking for pain management. Helping and empowering young people suffering from low self-esteem, anxiety and stress is particularly close to my heart, as is working with people experiencing animal related anxieties, phobias or fears.

I offer Hypnotherapy, NLP, Life Coaching, Creative Visualisation, EFT and Past Life Regression Therapy. I practice Hypnotherapy based on the teachings of Milton H. Erickson, in a method which acknowledges and accommodates each person's uniqueness, inner resources and individual needs.

All of the therapies I offer have helped me to move through very challenging times with more grace, integrated confidence and compassion for myself and others, than would have been possible without the care and expertise of the wonderful therapists and teachers who have supported my development over the years. Because of these experiences, I can provide a heart-centred approach combined with a flexible, solution focussed method, which we will agree on together to ensure that it best suits your needs.

You can expect a warm welcome and a safe space where you can explore your issue confidentially, without pressure and without being judged.

You will gain a new perspective on the issue that you would like to work on and learn practical ways to overcome it and you will have the opportunity to uncover your deep potential, gaining an insight into how you can take charge of your health and well-being.

I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation if you need support between sessions to keep you on track.

I now also offer experiential workshops in small groups (up to six participants) to teach coping strategies for anxiety and stress, that will help you to manage your emotions and put the triggers (e.g. events or other people's behaviours) into perspective.

Groups may be made up of families, friends and/or work colleagues who would like to learn how to help themselves and support each other in applying the strategies. It is true for most of us that we forget how to nourish ourselves when we most need it. Learning these skills in a group of people who you have regular contact with so that you can remind and help each other, can be a very nurturing, mutually supportive experience.

If you are interested, please get in touch for further information and to discuss your requirements.
