Hello to you and thanks for taking the time to view my page.
Who am I
I am a result driven, qualified clinical hypnotherapist and life coach, having trained at the East Anglian Institution of Hypnotherapy in Norfolk. An accredited member of the governing body General Hypnotherapy Standards Council and an approved member of the Hypnotherapy Directory. I also have a further diploma qualification in the specialised subject of Hypno-Analysis and am certified from the School of Psychology in (CBT) Cognitive behavioural therapy, (NLP) Neuro-linguistic programming, (TFT) Thought field therapy & Havening therapy. I have also studied (EDMR) Eye movement desensitisation reprocessing and am a former Samaritans counsellor. Currently, I am studying for a level 4 Diploma in Child Psychology.
What I do
I work with all of the issues mentioned above but specialise in therapy with anxiety-based issues in both adults and children which can cause many symptoms including, nervousness, lack of confidence, mood swings, obsessions, compulsions, fear, IBS, migraines, phobias, sleep disorder, hypochondria, depression and melancholia and much more...
Anxiety related statistics
Did you know that there are 275 million people worldwide reported to be suffering from some type of anxiety disorder and that 1 in every 9 children are reported to be suffering anxiety related issues? There were 8.2 million cases of anxiety reported in the UK in 2013 and in the US alone it is reported that 40 million people are suffering from anxiety. Many more are not seeking help. This is a huge global problem and one that seems to be steadily rising.
Solving your problem
Most people are only aware of their presenting problem such as a habit, a behaviour or a feeling, when in fact there is often an underlying issue buried in the subconscious. For successful and permanent treatment this needs to be found and addressed. Whatever issues you are experiencing, I would very much like to help you overcome them...
As well as my own practice, I work freelance for the respected and well-known practice Hampshire Hypnotherapy located in Whitely Fareham. I constantly continue my study in mental health practices so that I can offer the very best treatments to my clients.

Stress & Worry
We all have a certain amount of stress which is good for us as it makes us get things done but living with too much stress and worry is really unhealthy for us. Its not about what happens in life - but about how we deal with it.

Fear
Fear breeds fear and can become fantasised fear which is when we over analyse situations and our imagination creates a false negative belief. Not only are you imagining the worst outcomes, but is also affecting your decision making and limiting your happiness hugely.

PTSD
Post traumatic stress disorder is caused by frightening events that are being re lived through nightmares and flashbacks. Untreated it is very unlikely they will go away on their own.

Low confidence & Self esteem
Confidence is learned by positive experiences and events, but damaged easily by put downs, negative and dramatic experiences. This also leads to low self esteem. The importance of valuing oneself is critical to become self assured and confident.
