Therapies

Hypnosis has been used as a therapeutic tool for thousands of years. Tribes and ancient civilisations like Native Americans, Aztecs and Mayans have used a state of trance for rituals, healing and medical treatments. Being in a state of hypnosis is absolutely natural and a normal daily occurrence, when we fall asleep and when we wake up, our brain goes through a slowing down of the frequency it emits. The Theta state in which hypnosis happens is also that of REM sleep.
This same state of being completely absorbed into something also happens while watching an enthralling movie, or reading a very interesting book. It is also the state of frequency that the brain remains in until a child reaches around 6 to 7 years old. Children are just sponges and that’s exactly how hypnosis works in a way.
We will discuss what your goals are and hypnosis allows for these goals to be imprinted in the subconscious mind, which in turn, will manifest the change in your life, while releasing all those programs that no longer serve you.
Let me highlight the fact that you are in control at all times, that as a therapist I only guide you to relax deeply enough for your brain to lower the frequency to enter the correct state where the magic happens. You can wake up at any point if you wanted to, you can even talk and answer my questions while in hypnosis. You made your way there to do the work, you are always in charge.
Modern hypnosis is based on over ten thousands of scientific studies run in the last 30 or so years.

This technique is only taught at the UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy in London and it’s approved by the British Psychological Society. It includes the use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which is widely used by the NHS, under hypnosis. It is a way to super charge the positive outcomes of the therapy, reduce the number of sessions required and make it easier to practice at home.

Easibirthing is a hypnobirthing method designed specifically with UK birthing NHS practices in mind, with the inclusion of UK trained Midwifes expertise. It was created by Sharon Mustard who is actually contracted by Salisbury NHS Trust to run courses via their maternity services.
I offer one to one sessions for pregnant women with their partners, or group weekly classes.
If you’re interested, sign up to my newsletter to be informed of the next available course. One to one sessions are fully tailored to the specific needs of the mother and birthing partner and can be run in the comfort of your own home.

Kinetic Shift was developed by Karl Smith, Ex Army, as a fast tool to restore emotive control in the line of duty, especially in the treatment of PTSD. It’s compelling and active, can be content free, and within minutes, it brings about incredible changes. It rewires the amygdala response, the gland at the front of the brain responsible for fear and aggression, using simple steps including rapid eye movement.
I use it a lot with phobias with amazing results.

Emotional Freedom Techniques offers a systematic approach to brain rewiring by using acupressure meridian points in the upper body in conjunction with the client’s own language. This combination creates a change in the hormonal response of the brain to stress, pain, trauma and more, therefore providing freedom from negative thoughts and emotions linked to the original problem.It’s an active therapy where you’ll be tapping your fingers on specific points while repeating certain phrases and words that I will have written down during your description of the problem.

I’ve learnt Meditation in ’99, a whole two years after a nervous breakdown at the tender age of 19.
To say that it helped is a huge miss understatement.Meditation is the practice of the absence of thought and the focusing of the mind for a specific period of time. Very few people start Meditating and are immediately able to focus so clearly that the mind doesn’t wonder, but everyone is capable of achieving this state with practice.The secret of being able to do any meditation is to focus the thought on one’s breath and fixate the mind’s eye in a space between the eyebrows at the top of the nose canal. In doing so the mind is forced to work on a specific natural process and eventually gets bored of running around.Mindfulness is the practice of being, being present, aware, accepting one’s thoughts and feelings, bodily sensations. Is to be consciously aware of the now, the present moment, without judgement. Unlike Meditation, you can actually be Mindful at any point, perhaps you do it already and you are just not aware of it. Is like losing oneself looking at a new born sleeping, or sitting on a deserted beach and immersing oneself on the movement of the waves, the breeze, the sounds. It is living in the moment, that moment of peace and stillness that perhaps we are all longing for.Both practices can reduces stress, slow ageing, improve and strengthen the immune system, improve concentration and memory, induce mind and body relaxation, reduce high blood pressure, increase self awareness, reduce pain, exhaustion, equilibrate insulin production in diabetes sufferers and so much more.Regular practice is truly life changing.
I can teach these one to one or in a class group, I create personalised visualizations that intertwine in self hypnosis, to bring about change and make the practice easy and pleasure full. These can be recorded professionally after our session, for you to continue the practice at home. One of my visualizations is included in the 2008 Dr David Hamilton’s book ‘How your mind can heal your body’.

I learnt Reiki Usui Shiki Ryoho (the original Dr Usui method) in 2007, taking my first level with April Skupien. Later in that same year I qualified as a level 2 practitioner in Reiki Jin Kei Do with Steve Gooch .Over the years I was introduced and taken courses on Spiritual Healing, Energy Healing and Prana.
I’ve come to the conclusion that no matter what approach one uses, what it is named or where it comes from, all these methodologies are and work in exactly the same way. I am just a medium, a vessel for the energy to flow through me and be directed to my client’s needs, that be emotional, physical or energetic.
You have to appreciate that we are energy, everything is energy, and when our vibration lowers due to stress or anything negative happening in our life, the healing allows for that vibration to rise again through the transfer of higher energy.I also practice Trance Healing. This modality has no connection to any of the above and is completely different. Only upon request.
