I am a fully qualified Hypnotherapist and IEMT Practitioner, I trained with Central Academy of Clinical Hypnosis & NLP, (Hypnofocus in Rugely), which trains to a gold standard accredited course. Their course is one of only two in England that is recognised and approved by The British Psychological Society. When I made the decision to become a hypnotherapist I researched the best training available, and wanted a course that was recognised by the NHS.
What led me to hypnotherapy? I've worked as a prison officer for 15 and a half years, dealing with male young offenders and adults, and throughout this time I have come across many mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, confidence issues, bullying, suicidal thoughts, family issues, disabilities, physical illnesses, to name but a few. I am also part of the Care Team which is a group of volunteers who look after the staff when there is a serious incident, or if a member of staff is having personal issues and needs support. This gave me the training based on the same as the Samaritans receive, including listening skills, and confidentiality. I always wanted to be a counsellor, but when researching counselling courses I felt there was 'something' missing, I found this 'something' in clinical hypnotherapy. It sparked my interest in the way it can help people in a completely different dimension. I found it fascinating to say the least and felt compelled to work in this area to help people. Imagine waking up every morning feeling like you can take on the world. How great would that feel? I've opened the doors of my practice to clients in Leicester, Leicestershire, and surrounding areas, offering a hypnotherapy service to guide you through life’s challenges and most trying times. Life can get difficult, and sometimes a little help from a professional Hypnotherapist can make things better. I care about your well-being and will provide you with all the tools you need in order to seize the day.
