Clinical Hypnotherapy

Helping You Create Lasting Change
Clinical Hypnotherapy | Talking Therapy | PTSD & Trauma Specialist

Is today your Day 1
Or will it stay as just one day?

 The Pebble Ridge Practice, Torquay, Devon

Welcome to my website. I am a multi award-winning, fully qualified, accredited and experienced Mental Health Therapist, Supervisor and Lecturer, specialising in Solution Focused Therapy using:

• Clinical Hypnotherapy/Psychotherapy
• Talking Therapy (Solution Focused Brief Therapy-SFBT used by the NSPCC)
• Rewind Therapy specifically for PTSD & Trauma

All of my approaches are evidence-based, strength-focused and short-term, helping you move towards life without the problem.
My work centres on identifying your strengths, empowering you to create meaningful, positive change and move towards your best hopes for the future.

I support:

  • Children
  • Young People
  • Adults
  • Couples

I am also a guest lecturer with INSPIRAOLOGY (IHT) helping to train future Clinical Hypnotherapists, and an accredited trainer for Muss Rewind Trauma Therapy (IARTT) across the South West.

I offer support for:

• Stress & overwhelm
• Anxiety
• Low mood & depression
• Post-natal depression
• Insomnia & sleep issues
• Panic attacks
• PTSD & trauma
• Confidence & self-esteem
• Weight loss
• Fears & phobias
• Smoking cessation
• And so much more…

Just because the problem that has brought you to seek help may be big or complicated, it doesn’t necessarily follow that you will be in therapy for a long time. Solution Focused therapy is quick working and there is more time between sessions to notice changes, therefore saving you time and money!

There is no pressure to decide which therapy is best suited to you.
We will explore your needs together during your consultation and agree on the most appropriate approach to support you.

I focus on what you want to achieve and support you in becoming the best version of yourself.

Together, we will work towards a future where:

• You feel in control of your life
• You feel confident in who you are
• You feel free to truly enjoy life
• You move forward with a positive and hopeful outlook

You have already made that first step, I’m here to support you.
Book a consultation today and let’s begin your journey towards lasting positive change.

Stress Management

I came to Charlotte for stress management.  It was causing me to drink more alcohol as a method of coping.  The sessions were so relaxing and after the sessions I felt incredibly calm and in control.  The feeling of positivity remained with me and my sleep improved.  The sessions had an increasingly positive impact on my life, equipping me with skills to revisit to keep the feelings of control between sessions.  There is also a recording that you can listen to before bed, which is excellent. I would definitely recommend  the practice.  I will revisit Charlotte again for top up sessions should the need arise! She is amazing.

Depression and Anxiety

I started this looking for help with anxiety and depression, which I had suffered with for many years. Having completed the course I can honestly say it has gone beyond that, I now sleep so much better, I am more confident and relaxed with a positive outlook on life. I have been able to take up old interests and pursue new ones. I am just a happier person all round and my depression and anxiety is a distant memory. I would not hesitate to use Charlotte again and highly recommend her to anyone.

Fear and Phobias

My Daughter attended 6 weekly sessions with Charlotte to help her overcome her fear of needles. She has to have various injections and blood tests at least once every 3 months. Before going to Charlotte these tests usually ended up being a 2+ hour visit to the hospital which included blacking out and vomiting. Since Charlotte we have had 2 very successful hospital visits for routine injections which we have been able to leave 10 mins after the injection was given. A first for us in 14 years. My Daughter is very happy with this and would highly recommend Charlotte. She put my daughter at ease and gave her a positive attitude towards facing the needle in the future.

Post-Natal Depression

I have recently completed an 8 week course of treatment with Charlotte at Pebble Ridge Practice. I can honestly say it has totally transformed my life. When I first attended my initial consultation I was at rock bottom. I had been diagnosed with post-natal depression and was on anti-depressants. I was suffering from poor sleep, total exhaustion, low mood and I had totally lost my confidence. I had totally lost my sparkle, sense of humour and love for life. Charlotte made me feel completely at ease and explained how her sessions would work and the idea behind 'emptying my stress bucket' which currently was over loaded and this wasn't helping my symptoms. I attended each week and listened to a CD she gave me every night before bed. Every week I could see improvements in my symptoms. I was sleeping better, thinking better and was in control. By week 6 I felt confident to begin weaning off my anti depressants  (as... Read All

By week 6 I felt confident to begin weaning off my anti depressants  (as agreed by my GP) and I was feeling great. I can't thank Charlotte enough for all she has done for me, I worry where I might be now had I not taken that first step by booking an initial consultation with her. With Charlotte's help I am feeling better than ever, happy, enjoying life again and I have my sparkle back. I would recommend anyone who is suffering from post natal depression, anxiety, fears or phobias to get in touch with Charlotte. You won't regret it.

Smoking

I just wanted to say a big thank-you! After just one of your therapy sessions, I found it so much easier to get off the dreaded cigarettes. For years I’ve been trying to give up, using every method going. You really helped me to understand the reasons why I smoke, and the therapy has helped me to give up without the need for any other nicotine replacement therapy. Its been months since I last smoked! I will certainly recommend you to others.

Bereavement

A long catalogue of personal challenges and bereavement had left me with appalling sleep habits and a tendency to comfort eat. A close friend suggested that Charlotte may be able to help. After a free consultation I knew that this was going to be the answer to my 3.00 am prayers. Charlotte is extremely professional and yet very approachable, the sessions were conducted over SKYPE which is remarkably easy and effective. From the first session my sleep pattern improved dramatically. Charlotte explained the nature and importance of good quality sleep and had provided an MP3 for use when sleep was eluding me. 12 sessions with Charlotte saw me getting good quality sleep every night and getting so much more achieved in my day. I have subsequently lost weight without even noticing it. 6 months later and I'm a completely different person, I can not thank Charlotte enough for the difference she has made in my life. I now sleep well... Read All

I feel able to deal with any challenges calmly, rationally and immediately. Thank you Charlotte, my guardian angel! All SKYPE appointments

Insomnia

I spoke with Charlotte as I had been struggling to get any quality sleep for a number of years and I was running out of ideas on how to improve my sleeping (having tried all the usual ways). Charlotte suggested that I have a free and no obligation consultation with her, so she could determine if she may be able to help. I must admit I was sceptical, but felt that getting better sleep was needed and was willing to give it a go. Following the free consultation, Charlotte explained that she felt she could help me, as well as why she thought this and how she could do it. In short, this was a form of 'trance' to help me change my mind-set and allow me to properly relax and gain more (and better) sleep, as well as improving other aspects of my life such as decision making and control.

Once again I was sceptical of this, I've never really believed in hypnotherapy or even heard of this 'trance' method. I am pleased to say that after session 3, it was becoming clear that not only was I starting to sleep better and for longer, but I was getting up earlier and felt more energetic. This trend continued until after about 7 or 8 sessions, when Charlotte said that she felt I didn't need any more sessions but if I ever felt I needed more help, to give her a call. Two months since the sessions ended, I am still sleeping better and haven’t needed to call (but know I can if I need to). Thank you Charlotte, as improving my sleep has benefited my life in so many other ways.

General Therapy

After suffering a traumatic neurological disorder last summer which left me immobilised. I spent months going through the NHS system expecting to be cured. Eventually I was tired of being referred on and waiting for weeks and months for appointments, I received no help at all. My progression was very slow. Eventually I decided to take the matter into my own hands and looked into therapy. I found Charlotte and thank goodness I did. At the first appointment, I arrived using the walking frame that I’d needed for over 4 months. I came home and never used it again moving on to a walking stick which I gradually used less. I had 9 treatments and was able to walk unaided. I cannot put into words how very happy I am. Please don’t hesitate if you need help. I have my life back.

Fear/Phobia Thunder

Just wanted to say a big 'THANK YOU'. We have just put all your hard work to the test today and I can't believe it has worked!! It has been at the back of my mind all day to check the weather as I was aware there may be storms. I have resisted telling myself that if a storm comes it will come, and no amount of checking will change that. I was looking out of the window when I saw a big flash of lightening. I kept calm, I didn't run or hide. I have just carried on as normal. I still have butterflies in my tummy and a little nervous feeling but I am SO PROUD of myself today. Thank you so much for helping me beat this!

Child Anxiety

Charlotte you’ve been absolutely wonderful with our 7 year old daughter who has managed to get a hold on her anxiety and helped her to vastly improve how she deals with life’s situations, so much so she said she will miss seeing you! Can’t thank you enough and would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you Charlotte ! Torquay

Hypnobirthing

A big thank you to Charlotte for all her support in the run up to the birth of our daughter Rosie. I had 1-2-1 support with Charlotte which included visualisations, breathing exercises and downloadable MP3’s which I listened to both at home and during the early stages of labour. Charlotte enabled me to have the best birth which I was able to achieve through a pool birth and a little gas and air. The calming atmosphere, breathing techniques and visualising the birth I wanted, helped me to deliver Rosie naturally, calmly and without causing stress to her or myself. I would recommend her to others seeking to bring their baby into the world in a calm and natural way.

Reducing Stress and Anxiety in Autism

In common with many young people with Autism, my son has bouts of depression. However, turning 18 and becoming an "adult" hit him hard and he went to a very dark place. Charlotte has been amazing, he is now back to his bright self and even more confident and ready to try different things than ever before. Without Charlotte I really don't know if he would still be here. That's not over exaggerating. Using Clinical Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, she has been able to gently show him his own strengths and prepared him to face the future. He still listens to the recording every day and Charlotte has given him the skills to communicate with others like never before. I cannot recommend Charlotte highly enough.

Trauma and Anxiety (Teenager)

I have included below a review I have just been sent by a parent and son I have been working with recently which included the Rewind Technique and x5 Solution Focused Hypnotherapy sessions.   Parent review (Mum)  I cannot thank Charlotte enough for the support she has given my teenage son. The trauma he experienced when he was younger has been laid to rest using Charlotte’s ‘Rewind technique’. He’s found the social aspect of life at school hard for many years but with Charlotte’s help he has started to see things differently and gradually built his confidence and self-esteem so he’s finally starting to see himself as the awesome young man we know he is. From the very beginning she really seemed to ‘get’ him. Only wish we’d heard about Charlotte sooner!

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for all the help you’ve given me over the last few months. Your kindness and understanding throughout our sessions gave me the ability to understand the deep routed issues I had embedded for years. You have helped me understand my thought process in a much more coherent way which I would never have achieved on my own, which has also resulted in me having a much better relationship with my daughter.Your rationality and sheer understanding of the way our minds work is a rare find which I personally feel I have benefited from.You’re an asset to your profession.

Child Anxiety Age 9

We came to Charlotte at The Pebble Ridge Practice looking for support and guidance on how to help our 9 year old son. He really struggled with his confidence and taking on anything new, to the point that something simple in our eyes could cause him to shut down completely showing absolute fear and panic, whilst it had been a minor issue as he has become older it had started to affect him more and more so meant he was starting to miss out, so we decided it was time to reach out for help. Charlotte had an initial consultation with us to discuss the main challenges and advised us on how we can help when these situations arise, then we introduced our son to her, and he started having 45-minute sessions once every few weeks.

After their sessions he would come out in such a good mood and felt so much better talking to someone other than his parents. I cannot rate Charlotte’s services highly enough; she was so friendly and supportive throughout and has done an outstanding job in helping our little boy become a confident young man.

School Refusal/High Anxiety

This review was sent to me from a parent after her daughter received her GCSE results this year (AUG 2025). I worked with this young person when she was in year 10 and was suffering from high anxiety and friendship issues which led to school refusal. The sessions helped this young person bring her anxiety levels down enabling them to make more positive choices and changes in her life. They also helped her to build coping strategies to use when life got tough. This got her through the important year 11 without therapy and she was able to sit her GCSE’s and come out with the grades she needed for the next step in her life. “I just wanted to let you know that my daughter passed all of her GCSE exams and so is now looking forward to starting at Exeter College is September.
