I am an award winning Mental Health Therapist under the umbrella of the Solution Focused Approach, working with children, young people, adults and couples.  I offer Clinical  Hypnotherapy/Psychotherapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapist (SFBT-Talking Therapy) and Trauma therapy using Muss Rewind and I am based in Torquay, South Devon.

I have a degree in Education and I worked as a qualified lecturer with students aged 14-19 and in adult education for over 20 years and I guest lecturer with Inspiraology Hypnotherapy training in Exeter. 

Having worked for a long time with young people I noticed that more and more students were suffering with mental health such as anxiety, low mood and low confidence and I wanted to understand more about mental health and to be able to help. 

This inspired me to retrain in mental health where I qualified as a Clinical Hypnotherapist from the prestigious training academy, Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training (CPHT) and went on to train with BRIEF International to become a fully qualified talking therapist in Solution Focused Brief Therapy, both of which are the leading training academies in the UK and worldwide. 

I am so proud to have been recognised in my work and it really has been an honour to work with my clients of all ages and to be part of their journey moving forward in their lives. I truly do LOVE my job!

I pride myself in specialising in services which give my clients the opportunity to change their lives for the better and I offer a caring and professional service. I feel privileged to be able to be part of my clients’ journey helping them moving forward in their lives bringing about happiness, success and confidence.

When I’m not working, I enjoy walking, going to the gym and looking after my physical wellbeing as I truly believe mental and physical health go hand in hand.

I am also a proud mum to three grown up beautiful daughters (who still keep me on my toes!) and a dog mum to a very handsome (well I think so!) black Labrador Brian 🐾
