About Back On Track Hypnotherapy

Thank you for visiting my page.  I originally qualified as a suggestion hypnotherapist while studying for a counselling diploma; right from the first class, I realised how beneficial hypnotherapy could be, and I was so impressed that I changed my career path and, instead of continuing with counselling, I took further hypnotherapy training and am now a qualified solution-focused hypnotherapist.  I can blend both styles, but I now mainly focus on the solution-focused approach as I have seen how beneficial it can be, and because it is supported by neuroscience.

I use a blend of psychotherapy, positive psychology, CBT, NLP and many other techniques to help my clients to move forwards.  You don't have to discuss the issue, or the history of the issue; we focus on where you want to be, and how you are going to get there.

Three years spent as a Samaritan taught me the value of active listening and focusing on my client.  I volunteer as a Pet Bereavement Counsellor and have been priveleged to have helped people who had felt at the very lowest point of their life.

I have over twenty six years experience in working with vulnerable adults and teenagers which has given me a valuable insight into issues such as mental health concerns, debt, addiction, anger management, depression, anxiety and the impact of crime.  I also have a lot of experience in working with ADHD, Bi-Polar and with what would originally have been termed Asperger's Syndrome.

Nothing will faze me; you will be treated with confidentiality  and non-judgement, and I always look for humour.  I have experienced issues myself, but I truly believe the world is an amazing place and I will work collaboratively with you so that you can move forwards towards living the life you deserve.
