About Me
I am a firm believer in the saying, "If you love what you do, you never work a day in your life, " and I take great pride in my work. It's not just about my passion for helping people work through their issues; I feel incredibly honoured to witness their most private feelings. As a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Hypnotherapist, I specialise in anxiety and depression. I am an accredited member of the National Counselling Society, a member of the National Hypnotherapy Society and adhere to their ethical framework and policies. I hold an Advanced Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and strive to expand my knowledge and skills through regular training days every year. I am also qualified in Hypnotherapy, EFT, and EMDR, which deliver remarkable results as standalone therapies. However, when combined with Counselling, they become exceptionally potent.
What is Psychotherapeutic Counselling?
Psychotherapeutic Counselling combines the techniques and approaches of Psychotherapy and Counselling to produce the best possible outcomes for you. Since no single approach fits all, having a wide range of options increases the chances of achieving goals more efficiently. Whatever obstacle may be holding you back, there is always help available, and no one has to suffer alone. Everyone deserves to live a happy and fulfilling life.
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a blend of hypnosis and counselling skills, allowing you to reach your goal and aiding deep relaxation of your body and mind. Softly listening to my voice will guide you into a state of tranquillity, where your powerful subconscious mind will absorb positive suggestions and coping mechanisms, resulting in change and the accomplishment of your goal. You will not lose consciousness, but you will be in such a relaxed state that your subconscious mind will take charge. You have complete control and can leave the hypnotic state whenever you desire. Self-hypnosis is the foundation of all hypnosis, and by teaching you ways to achieve this, you will empower yourself. The number of sessions required depends on your goal, but even after the first session, you will notice a difference. Together, we can decide the best course of action for change, allowing you to focus your energy on enjoying life.
