Certified Hypnotherapist

I am a trauma-informed hypnotherapist and coach with over 10 years of lived experience overcoming domestic abuse, alongside more than a decade of professional experience supporting individuals through complex emotional and psychological challenges.
My own recovery journey gives me a deep, embodied understanding of trauma, relationship patterns, and the long-term impact of emotional abuse. I understand what it feels like to lose yourself in survival mode — and what it takes to rebuild in a way that is grounded, self-trusting, and sustainable.
Before establishing my private practice, I spent four years in a specialist occupational welfare role within the Ministry of Defence, providing counselling support to serving soldiers and their families. This work required discretion, resilience, and a strong understanding of trauma, operational stress, identity shifts, and relationship breakdown. It shaped my calm, structured, and safety-led approach to client work.
I am an Army Reservist and a committed advocate for the Armed Forces community. As a partner in the award-winning company Remaster Your Mind and a proud supporter of the Armed Forces Covenant, I remain closely connected to the military sector and understand its culture, pressures, and strengths.
For over eight years, I have run a successful coaching and hypnotherapy practice specialising in trauma recovery, toxic and narcissistic relationship patterns, anxiety, confidence rebuilding, and subconscious reprogramming.
My approach blends science-led modalities — including clinical hypnotherapy, subconscious re-patterning, nervous system regulation, and behavioural change strategies — with grounded energy-based and embodiment practices to support emotional integration. The structure is evidence-informed; the work is compassionate; the results are lasting.
Clients often come to me feeling anxious, stuck in repeating patterns, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. Through structured subconscious work and forward-focused coaching, I help them create measurable transformation.
I have supported hundreds of clients to:
- Recover from domestic and narcissistic abuse
- Break destructive attachment cycles
- Rebuild self-worth and emotional stability
- Reduce anxiety and regain control of intrusive thinking
- Develop healthy, secure relationships
- Build fulfilling careers and businesses with renewed confidence
My clients describe feeling safe, deeply understood, and appropriately challenged — supported not only to heal, but to move forward with clarity and strength.
My mission is simple: to help people fall in love with life again — not by bypassing their experiences, but by helping them reclaim control, rebuild trust in themselves, and create a future that feels aligned and secure.
