About Me
I’m a 40 plus fun loving (now positive – I’ll get to that bit 😊) female, mum, wife, daughter, sister, and friend, Also a Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist.
This past couple of years has especially taught me that I’ve struggled and hidden overwhelm and anger, I’ve come to the realisation that I have suffered with anxiety for a lot of my adult life mostly in silence and truly having had the mindset of just crack on and everything will be alright, whilst having that inner sinking feeling in my gut that I’m not good enough.
When I reflect on my younger adult life beating myself up for being angry about scenarios or situations and not knowing why or how to change them, thinking I wasn’t parenting to my best, frightened to get involved with other mum’s at the school gate for fear of rejection or ridicule, being too much of a people pleaser in my work life and somehow being overlooked for promotions and then overthinking my decisions that plummeted into bouts of anxiety and hiding it from everyone, at the same time giving too much to others finding they come to me with their problems and not prioritising my own self-care including most recently navigating perimenopause when the drop of oestrogen hit me hard and reminded me of my younger teenage self who also struggled with teachers and peers that hindered her progress and I felt the whoosh of that rage again, only this time it was along with my parents ill health and my own two teenagers and their struggles plus juggling my job and I again found all the overwhelm too much to cope with needless to say I had a pretty big wobble and felt there had to be an easier way.
My ‘tar dar’ or light bulb moment of change was unbelievable upon walking into my first Hypnotherapy training session and feeling immediately like I belonged learning about the mind and the workings of the brain, what anxiety is and how it’s formed. Studying alongside like-minded therapists, I had found my why! It helped my understand why I’ve felt this way for so long and has given me the fantastic opportunity to heal me and help others also. So then Healing Hypnosis was born!
Whilst I love being all the other titles I mention above, my true most authentic self is Clinical Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist, one of which I am extremely proud. The skills I now possess and in which I shall continue to grow has given me the ability to understand how to help myself and support others becoming the very best versions of themselves.
