I qualified as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist and NLP Practitioner with the Quest Institute, when I graduated on their world-renowned, cutting-edge Diploma in Cognitive Hypnotherapy. I was trained by Trevor Silvester, one of the world's leading hypnotherapists. The course also included training in EFT. You can view student feedback about this superb course here.

I have trained with Rubin Battino (a highly experienced US-based hypnotherapist and author) in his unique approach of Very Brief Therapy.

I'm a member of the National Council For Hypnotherapy (NCH). The NCH has strict entry requirements, including the completion of the Hypnotherapy Diploma, a substantial piece of work comparable in word terms to a degree-level dissertation.  The NCH sets very high standards for professional competency, conduct and continuing professional development.

I'm registered with the U.K. Confederation of Hypnotherapy Organisations (Reg No 82395) and abide by their regulations and high standards of professional practice.

I'm also registered with the Complimentary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC), the UK regulator for complimentary healthcare practitioners, funded by the Department of Health.

In addition to hypnotheray training I have completed CPPD Level 1 in Nutritional Therapy with Thames Valley University, and advise on nutritional interventions in mental and physical health where appropriate. I've also completed Reiki Level 1and Reiki Level 2.

I'm regularly PNC/CRB checked to give parents added peace-of-mind when working with children.

I'm fully insured and regulated by the organisations I belong to.
