About me

I qualified as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist in 2014 and as a Master Practitioner in 2015, studying with the Quest Institute, in Regents University in London. I worked with a variety of clients but found more children and teenagers asking for support. So, I undertook training to work with and specially help younger clients, through Ollie and His Super Powers.

I wanted to widen the support I was able to provide and undertook further training to help clients with PTSD and trauma. The AMDR course has helped me to work with clients to recover from traumatic experiences, including serious sexual offences, physical and mental traumatic experiences.

Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked in an emergency service in London, spending time in an operational front-line role. I undertook promotion and worked in various leadership roles supporting staff and colleagues, managing working relationships with external partners and providing a quality service to the public. Throughout this time, I saw first had the many issues and challenges people struggled with in life and assisted them wherever possible.

I draw on my experience of supporting people within their personal and professional lives, bringing my skill sets from both careers together. Problem solving, supporting and working with clients to identify the issues, tailoring solutions for them to achieve success and improve.

I have settled back in Northumberland where I was born and live near the coast, enjoying walks on the beach and the beautiful countryside.
