Counselling will provide you with a safe, confidential space to talk through, explore and reflect on what is happening in your life, which might be causing you to feel upset, stressed, angry, down, confused or anxious. Many people find that the act of talking to someone who won’t judge them, but who does listen attentively is the first step to feeling better.
How many sessions will I need?
Counselling can be short or long term. Some people decide that they want to come for a few months, while others decide that six to ten sessions will be enough. We can discuss how many sessions you might need, during your first session.

hypnotherapy faqs
What is hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a brief, gentle, relaxing therapy. Through experiencing deep relaxation, your subconscious and conscious mind will be able to work together to change your unhelpful thoughts, feelings and behaviours which are getting in the way of you living the life that you really want.
How many hypnotherapy sessions will I need?
Typically, you will need between four to six sessions for a “single” issue, like anxiety or lack of confidence. Phobias can often be removed in as few as four sessions. Due to the specific nature of smoking cessation, you will require two sessions of an hour and a half over a two week period. Just think, in as little as four hours, you could be totally free of whatever is holding you back…
How much does it cost?
All hypnotherapy sessions cost £60.00 an hour. There is one lower cost session offered at £40 a week.
What if I'd like a combination of counselling and hypnotherapy?
An hour and fifteen minute session, which combines counselling and hypnotherapy is available for £68.00
What if I feel awful and don't know what to talk about?
Many people worry that they won’t know what to say or simply feel awful but don’t know why. I am experienced in working with how a person feels, even if they don’t understand where this feeling comes from. Often having the time and space to explore how you feel, is enough for you to start understanding why you feel as you do.
How will I feel in the sessions?
I will do my best to put you at ease and help you feel relaxed and welcome. If you are coming for hypnotherapy, you will feel deeply relaxed by the end of the session. How you feel at the end of your counselling session will vary, depending on what you choose to talk about. However, brief relaxations are offered at the end of sessions, for those who would like them.
What issues do you work with?
I have extensive experience of working with young people with anxiety, lack of motivation, low mood, relationship break up, divorce, separation, bereavement and loss as well as educational issues. This has included fear of public speaking, exam stress, low self-esteem due to being bullied, social anxiety and coping with the transition of starting university.
Although I specialise in hypnotherapy for educational issues, I have worked with adults experiencing insomnia, nightmares, low mood, lack of confidence, stress, phobias, anxiety or people who wish to give up smoking, tackle specific food cravings and manage their weight more effectively. I have a particular passion for helping people manage their weight through hypnotherapy!
