About me
I’ve had a 30-plus year rewarding career in law, working as a Barrister. Throughout that time I have been struck by the numbers of people whose lives have been blighted by their earlier experiences and who have had to carry the burden of those for a very long time. Of course in my professional capacity there was nothing I could do in that respect but it got me to thinking why through no fault of theirs did these people have to carry that burden for such a long time after the events had passed? This question was what drove my passion to find a therapy or modality which could achieve rapid results, enabling people to essentially peel back the layers of their environment, circumstances and any other external factors, and really tap into the gold within them. I did not want them to live with those experiences for a minute longer.
This is what attracted me to the science of resilience and positive psychology. These disciplines are based on growth and thriving in spite of adversity or rather especially out of adversity. NLP and hypnotherapy are modalities which can help achieve change quickly without having to repeatedly return to those negative events and often the work can be done without even verbalising the issue.
I developed my unique signature system RESET REWIRE RESILIENCE (RRR). This 12-week programme uses the best of these disciplines to create a complete package which enables clients to RESET, 3 bespoke sessions of NLP/hypnotherapy to deal with any issues that are holding you back, REWIRE 6 sessions of coaching on the “pillars” of positive psychology which allows a look at every aspect of your life, works to develop your strengths and promotes growth and RESILIENCE which are 3 sessions in which you are set up with tools to tap into your resilience no matter what life and the world throws at you.
I was also a chronic insomniac for many years, rather inconvenient! Whilst lying in bed, fully awake one evening, scouring the internet for ideas on how to cure this I came across NLP and Hypnotherapy. Like a lot of clients, I had personally experienced some traumatic events in relation to loss and the work I do, which gave me the push to dive in headfirst.
NLP and Hypnotherapy had such rapid results for me that I made the decision to train with world-renowned coach, NLP’er and hypnotherapist Ali Campbell,who is now my personal mentor , and help other people with these synergistic therapies. Learning how the mind works was life-changing for my clients and me.You can see what Ali kindly says about my work in the testimonial section.
I am very grateful to have used my love of language and communication in my ‘day job’ for so many years. Words are very powerful, how we use and misuse them can really impact the reality we find ourselves in. I am often asked about the career change – from criminal barrister to clinical hypnotherapist, it’s not a stretch I‘ve been sending Judges to sleep for years! The reality is now I use the power of language and communication as an NLP and Hypnotherapy Practitioner helping clients break through their limiting beliefs, outdated thinking and fears which have been holding them back.
Throughout my career, I have mentored young people both in the law and outside of my professional life. I have developed that experience into a bespoke one-on-one private mentorship and training so that all my clients can develop a strong core and are not rocked by world events, making sure that at all times they can remain grounded when the ground around them is moving.
We are living in the most uncertain times; the pandemic caused global anxiety, there is war and globally there is a recession. We are all in this together and yet how to cope as individuals? I believe that by working towards returning to our best selves and discovering the diamond essence within we become best able to deal with ourselves and to provide assistance and support to those around us. Transforming from the inside out, reinforcing resilience which is a natural human birthright .
A little more about my background
I was adopted by amazing parents, they were hugely supportive of me my whole life, my biggest cheerleaders. As my career in law progressed, I became acutely aware of how fate can dictate how one’s path in life goes. I could very easily have become one of the children in care who I saw so often as clients or victims of crime because of their circumstances. This is another strong reason why I became a Resilience and positive psychology coach, NLP and Hypnotherapy Practitioner. We are all the same, perfect at our core and these therapies allow clients to tap into that truth.
I love the idea that there is nothing wrong with us, we are as we should be. It’s our learned behaviour that we work with. NLP and Hypnotherapy resets you back to you, positive psychology rewires our thinking and resilience takes you into a secure future where you can maintain personal peace and thrive no matter what is going on in the world.
I have ambitions for BC Connection and soon I’ll be launching my Foundation so that I can help young women who, because of their life circumstances, have fallen through the cracks. Keep an eye out for that.
I would love to chat through how these amazing modalities can help you. I offer a free 30 minute consultation call to understand the things that are holding you back and the best route back to you.
