You’ll find me very friendly and down to earth, and fully supportive.
Reaching your outcomes, whatever you want to change, maybe thoughts, or how you feel, or doing things differently, can feel very natural and achievable with me. Almost as if the changes happen all by themselves.
Because I'll simply guide you, in a very relaxing way towards uncovering your inner strengths, which may have gone into hiding, or maybe never really felt present in your life.
I’m always learning and developing my skills so that I can find the best way to help you, as I deeply care about your transformation and truly love what I do.
I’m a big fan of simple too, so I'll find the simplest solutions, so you can just get on with your life.
I won’t be fitting you into ‘my method’ as I’ll design everything around you, and at a pace that suits you.

What Therapy with Me is Like and Why it Works so Effectively
Professional Background
As a therapist with 7 years of experience, I now have Advanced Hypnotherapist status, and draw upon a rich background that includes devising abuse prevention & recovery programmes in London, education, guiding & teaching meditation, and therapeutic mindfulness.
Now specialising in hypnotherapy, NLP, and relaxation techniques I'm continually learning, always fascinated by the mind & our capacity for deep and lasting happiness.
Having been personally trained in Compassionate Ericksonian Hypnotherapy by the world renowned expert, Stephen Brooks.
Stephen remains my continual mentor: He was the first to bring Erickson’s work to the UK and taught the first NLP course in Europe. His additions to these methods are beyond measure.

A little About Me
I’ve overcome many things in life; loss, grief, trauma from abusive relationships, fears, smoking, food issues, anxiety, and navigating through the menopause.
I've also had the great fortune to bring up two amazing sons, and be in a happy and healthy relationship now.
Life's ups, and downs have taught me so much. Especially about how suffering, recovery & great happiness are possible, all in one lifetime.
And I've got an optimistic, warm nature with empathy and care for all beings (including humans) has always come easily to me.
In my free time I love playing with my little grandchildren, walking in the woods, or by the canal with my lovely husband and grown up sons. Also gardening, cooking and baking sourdough bread are great passions for me. And painting, singing and playing guitar.
