About Me
Choosing the right therapist is important, which is why I offer a free initial consultation with no obligation to book
Until then, here’s a little about me so you can get a sense of who I am and how I work - helping you feel confident that I’m the right therapist for you and that this approach feels right from the very beginning
I am a fully qualified Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist
BA (Hons) Psychology & Social Studies, DSFH, AfSFH (Reg.)
My Background
I have worked in commercial business within Human Resources, supporting people through performance challenges, workplace stress, wellbeing concerns and difficult conversations. This gave me deep empathy for the pressures life places on us and first‑hand insight into how those pressures can affect our confidence, resilience and mental health.
My own life experiences, including divorce, raising two children, financial uncertainty and grief led me to seek support myself. Over the years I tried Analytical Hypnotherapy, Marriage Guidance, Counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), but it was Solution Focused Hypnotherapy that made the most meaningful difference. It changed my life, and it was this experience that inspired me to train in the approach; initially to support myself and my HR work, and now through my own practice, helping others create lasting, positive change.
My Qualifications
My Style
With a BA (Hons) in Psychology & Social Studies, moving into Solution Focused Hypnotherapy was a natural progression. I originally trained with CPHT, gaining the Level 4 - Diploma in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (DSFH) which deepened my understanding of modern therapeutic approaches through extensive study, supervised practice and assessed clinical work.
My Belief
My practice is grounded in professionalism, compassion and genuine care. I am fully insured, Enhanced DBS checked, and as a professional registered member of the AfSFH, I follow a strict code of ethics to ensure confidentiality and a safe, ethical approach to therapy.
Our relationship is built on trust, openness and a calm, non‑judgemental space where you can feel at ease. I bring warmth, empathy and a steady presence to my work, believing therapy should feel safe, hopeful and supportive. A place where you can explore your strengths and move forward in a way that feels manageable and meaningful.
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a future‑focused therapeutic approach that helps you build lasting change through positive focus and hypnosis, in a relatively short period of time compared to other therapies.
As your therapist, I’ll guide you through solution‑focused conversation to explore strengths, possibilities and small, achievable steps forward, alongside hypnosis, a relaxing, focused, natural state that supports your brain in making new patterns. My style is calm, supportive and steady, centred on helping you think more clearly, feel more in control and move towards meaningful change, without needing to revisit negative or painful memories. Together, we strengthen your inner resources, build confidence and create space for clarity. Sessions are gentle and collaborative, offering a safe environment where you feel listened to, understood and able to relax.
I work in a tranquil therapy room designed to feel soothing and comfortable, with many clients describing it as a peaceful space to unwind and reset. I also offer online appointments. Whatever support you need, my aim is to help you move forward in a way that feels achievable and encouraging.
