An introduction

More about me.

I first experienced hypnotherapy over 20 years ago to quit smoking. At the time, I didn’t realise how overwhelmed I was by stress and anxiety following loss, struggling with work pressures, relationships, and the ways I tried to escape my difficulties.

Hypnotherapy didn’t just help me stop smoking immediately, it gave me a sense of space when I needed it most. From this foundation of calm, I found safety in my body, and with a regulated nervous system, I was able to make better choices, respond more effectively to everyday challenges, and move forward with greater ease.

Before training as a hypnotherapist and counsellor, I supported many people through crisis while working in policing. I’ve seen first-hand that addressing stress and emotional patterns from the body up, rather than only through talking, can create lasting change. By learning to regulate the nervous system and release the emotions that hold us back, approaches like hypnotherapy, Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT), and other complementary techniques empower people to feel safer, calmer, and more in control of their lives.
