About Me

As a mother of two teenage sons, my journey into hypnotherapy was sparked by a family member's acute experience with anxiety and IBS. Witnessing the transformative impact that hypnotherapy had on their physical and mental well-being inspired me to pursue a career as a Clinical Hypnotherapist.

What is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is a combination of Psychotherapy (talking therapy) and Hypnosis (which is a state of deep relaxation). It is completely different from stage hypnosis and you are in control at all times. As a solution focused hypnotherapist, I use practical, modern and well-researched techniques to help my clients to achieve their goals, so unlike other therapies, I’m not required to unpick the past or discuss painful trauma. I use solution focused therapy in combination with hypnosis and NLP techniques so that my clients can see positive change in their lives in a relatively short period of time.

Hypnotherapy is fantastic for anxiety related issues and by using deep relaxation and visualisation, I help my clients to imagine their preferred future, and recognise the steps that are needed to achieve that.

The wonderful combination of solution focused work and deep relaxation means that sessions are relaxing and enjoyable.

I also give my clients practical tools to be able to cope with life’s struggles, and part of our sessions involve teaching about the physiology of the brain, so that clients can understand why they’re feeling the way that they are, and also feel empowered to manage emotions.

I give all my clients a copy of a relaxing audio to listen to at night-time which reinforces the work we do in sessions, will aid sleep and help the subconscious mind to re-program those limiting beliefs.

Hello

 I'm grateful for Catherine's kindness, support and understanding for a boy who has had to deal with a lot in his life.
After 6 sessions in Catherine’s beautiful space I am now sleeping through the night.
Catherine helped me with my phobia of motorway driving. I wasn't sure hypnotherapy could help with it, but it has!
