about me
Passionate about healing.
I have worked in the NHS as a GP for many years, and so often see the gap between the health we aspire to, and our default focus on treating disease. Most physical and mental health conditions we experience are intrinsically linked with the broader aspects of our lives; our diet, our activity patterns, our stress levels, our thinking habits, our support networks and even our sense of purpose. Good health is about more than managing symptoms and avoiding long term conditions.
​
In my private practice, I have more time to work with you as a qualified Health Coach, Clinical Hypnotherapist and Mindfulness Teacher, I believe that our bodies have an innate ability to heal, and much of my focus is on supporting my clients tap into this by creating a healthy, healing environment for themselves through their lifestyle choices and habits (physical and mental). Most people I meet know what to do, the issue is in actually doing it... and this is where coaching and hypnotherapy comes in. There are so many tools and techniques we can use to help you move forwards, overcome, grow and thrive!
