With 15 years experience, I am a highly qualified, senior practitioner. My work is underpinned by neuroscience and neuroplasticity. I teach clients how to focus on the three P's; positive thinking, positive activity and positive interaction, all of which are proven to support biochemical processes and the release of our happiness hormones, the most popular ones being endorphins, dopamine and serotonin. I work in partnership with my clients, offering a set of metaphoric tools, that, when used, will help you take back control of your life.

I am a senior practitioner, qualified in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy, with over 35 years experience working in adult social care, primarily managing community mental health services and currently, an adult social care regulator.
I became interested in hypnotherapy in 2007 whilst working specifically with people who experienced mental health problems, this included trauma. Following much research into the use of positive psychology it became apparent to me that hypnotherapy, (also known as positive mental rehearsal, or guided relaxation), and the use of trance, could be a valuable tool, and when offered as a theraputic intervention, could help many people take back control of their lives. One way we promote this is through positive thinking, positive interaction and positive action.
I studied Solution Focused Hypnotherapy at The Clifton Practice, a leading teaching authority delivering the nationally accredited (SFHT) and now offering solution focused training across the world. I was a senior lecturer at the Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training School for five years delivering the Hypnotherapy Practitioners Diploma (HPD) course in Guildford Surrey. Currently I deliver training in Emotional Resilliance across the South West. For more information about courses and workshops, please see my Training page. I am also a clinical supervisor, supporting other like minded Solution Focused Hypnotherapists across the country, both face to face and on line.
Additionally, I have trained in Human Givens Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (hyp), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (hyp), SFBT Supervision, Humanistic Counselling, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), NLP, Solution Focused Business for professionals and Solution Focused Practice with BRIEF.
I integrate these models to ensure every client's treatment plan is person-centred.
