I was drawn to hypnotherapy and counselling as an extension of my years as an HR director and helping others overcome mental health issues and day to day anxiety in the workplace.
I realised that so many people suffered in silence and felt that seeing either a hypnotherapist or a counsellor had a stigma attached to it. I wanted to break that stigma and allow more people to seek help without getting labelled as unfit to work.
PTSD is a key area of interest for me as I seemed to have been drawn to this automatically as I myself lived through the war in Lebanon in 1974 as a child and saw many things that no-one should see in their lifetimes. There is no judgment just understanding and assistance to work through the anxiety stress and trauma.
In corporate settings with my training as an HR director, I am good with dealing with internal conflicts and defusing conflicts - group mindfulness and meditation therapies to help reduce anxieties and stress and I have great presentation skills so I can teach others to present to other individuals or groups.
I have also helped people prepare for interviews and large meetings where sales are potentially life changing
Getting people work through phobias and getting then able to cope with anxieties and stresses in a more relaxed and logical way.
