A Little About Me
Having left the corporate world of downstream oil when I had my daughter I retrained in complementary therapies, always an interest of mine, and absolutely loved working with and helping people.
What soon became very apparent was that while I could help with various health issues most presenting physical issues corresponded with the client's mental wellbeing. Their self belief and self worth correlated strongly with much of the physical. Curious I had to find out more, it was then I looked into retraining to work with both mind and body.
I qualified as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist in 2004 with the renowned author and trainer Trevor Silvester at The Quest Institute, Regents College. This training was, and still is, at the cutting edge and exceeds occupational standards set for hypnotherapy. I went on to complete a Master Practitioner qualification, an NLP and NCNLP Diploma and have completed many further courses, CPD and workshops along the way.
We are the all the result of what has gone before. We bring to whatever we face in the present our life experience to date, and I am no exception. My journey has been shaped by both loss and resilience. I have faced the heartache of loosing a child and the pain of saying goodbye to loved ones. I understand the depths of grief and the courage it takes to heal. My work and understanding helped me through these experiences. I've learned the importance of finding hope even in the hardest moments. Alongside navigating personal challenges including being a single mum, I’ve also built and run a business, learning firsthand about perseverance and growth. I've gained a deep sense of empathy and a passion for helping others find strength, healing and purpose on their own journeys.
I understand that being a great therapist requires more than just training. That’s why I am dedicated to my own personal growth, attending talks, workshops, and learning from peer groups. I also bring my wealth of wisdom, knowledge, and life experience to my work.

- Very sudden loss of a partner, having to move home, bring up children alone and begin working full-time. Ongoing sessions to come to terms with finding time to grieve whilst also running a home, caring for young children and navigating a new work place. We found unravelling the overwhelm, finding time and places to just be and being able to say no gently led to building a new fulfilling life.
- Feelings of being different, self-conscious and not fitting in. We worked on where this might have originated, reconsolidated some childhood memories and let go to the point where an understanding that we are all different and bring our own worth to any group or relationship was established.
- A client who was intelligent highly thought of and very accomplished in their field but felt inadequate because they didn't go to university. Left after 4 sessions feeling equal amongst her peer group and proud.
- An NHS Consultant - working extreme hours and going through gruelling IVF, we managed to bring cortisol levels down, let go of guilt and resentment, manage work/life better and create a healthier physical environment (and a beautiful baby girl!)
- A client who had been through cancer treatment, got the all clear then became very anxous about socialising, new people and places. Was teased as there was now 'nothing wrong' We worked at coming to terms with all that had gone on, the places the mind goes to when diagnosed. Six sessions and the result was feeling happy to be well, free to get on with life and grateful to be out exploring and experiencing new things as and when they wanted to.
