My story

Before I trained as a cognitive hypnotherapist, I spent 17 years immersed in the fast-paced fashion industry. As a director, my role was demanding, and I thrived within its challenges—until the birth of my son changed everything.

Suddenly, there was a profound internal shift, and priorities that once held significance began to lose their importance. However, I found myself unsure of how to navigate this change. For years, I allowed fear and doubt to hold sway over me, feeling trapped in a cycle of anxiety and overwhelm.

Eventually, I reached a breaking point and decided to take action. I embarked on a journey of retraining and established my own therapy practice—a decision that proved to be the most rewarding of my life.

What can I help you with?

Addiction
Anxiety
Chronic stress
Confidence and self-esteem
Depression
Fears and phobias
Limiting beliefs
OCD
Panic attacks
Procrastination
PTSD
Smoking cessation
Trauma
Unhelpful habits
Weight loss

If you don’t resonate with any of the issues above that is ok – your problem is not just the label you give it.

I may have 10 clients see me for anxiety, but each person has arrived at their issue uniquely.

The problem YOU arrive with is just the tip of the iceberg – it’s the bit we can see, but it’s what underneath that has most weight.

What lies beneath is a pattern of thoughts, feelings and memories that have evolved since childhood in a particular way to guide your behaviour in situations your unconscious thinks are threatening – to either your physical safety or your self-esteem.

That’s where I will work with you to create permanent change.

About my training

I trained at the internationally renowned Quest Institute at Regents University in London; the only evidence-based hypnotherapy organisation and training school. It was important I trained with a credible and supportive school, and I can honestly say that being part of the ‘Questie’ community has been life changing. The training is regarded as the most rigorous hypnotherapy training in the UK. I gained the Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma, and continued onto the Master Practitioner course which transformed my therapy practice into flowing sequences which move beyond treatment and into coaching.
