Thank you for visiting my website.
The patient's wellbeing is always my first concern, and all treatments are conducted in the fullest confidentiality.
My aim is to achieve, wherever possible,a permanent, lasting resolution of your problem,rather than merely treating the symptoms alone.
I have been in full-time practice since 1985, and am fully qualified and experienced in treating a wide variety of conditions, including Anxiety, Depression, Panic Attacks, Fears and Phobias, Grief, Anger, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Lack of Confidence, Driving Test and Examination Nerves, Blushing, Stage-Fright, Insomnia, Fatigue, Loss of Energy & Motivation, Obsessive & Compulsive Behaviour (OCD's), Unwanted Habits (smoking, alcohol dependency, over-eating, nailbiting, etc.), Relationship & Personal Difficulties, Stress-Related and Psychosomatic Conditions (nervous Asthma, Eczema & Psoriasis, High Blood Pressure, Irritable Bowel Syndrome [IBS], tension headaches and migraines, etc.), Medication Withdrawal, and other problems too numerous to mention here (please enquire).
Who can be helped? With a few exceptions, almost everyone - individuals and couples, people in home, family and workplace relationships; experiencing personal, professional, social or sexual/emotional difficulties; who are facing challenges and uncertainties; coping with pressures of work, thwarted ambitions, domestic breakdowns, grief, worry, exhaustion, their own or others' illness, effects of bullying, physical, emotional or sexual abuse, the aftermath of shock or injury; who are haunted by the past or fearful of the future, or just feel 'stuck' in outdated attitudes, habits and behaviours .....

Psychotherapy, Hypnotherapy, NLP & Counselling (individuals and couples). The methods I use are ethical and cost-effective (I do not, for example, engage in lengthy psychoanalysis, but use far quicker and more effective methods). What helps one person may not suit another; we are all individuals and unique. I am qualified and experienced in helping people according to their individual needs, as described in the 'Counselling & Psychotherapy' and 'Hypnotherapy & NLP' sections of this website.

It has often been noted that illness may be preceded by an emotional or physical shock. It is also well known that a build-up of negative thoughts and feelings or stressful events and changes in a person's life can effect not only their mental and emotional health, but also their physical well-being.
By resolving the after-effects of shocks and traumas, letting go of grief, anger, guilt and fear, acquiring new skills, personal resources and self-esteem in place of old, counter-productive habits and behaviour, and learning the arts of relaxation and practical stress management, happiness, relationships and good health are all enhanced.

Probably the commonest preventable cause of ill health is Smoking. Information on my comprehensive ANTI-SMOKING treatment is shown on the 'Other Therapies' section of this website.

People often ask me how many sessions they might need. While to overcome a simple habit, to prepare for a challenge, or to resolve a misunderstanding in a relationship for example, in many cases a person or couple might need to see me only once, as a general rule most people see me for between two and six sessions. However, where someone has experienced serious trauma or abuse (physical, sexual or emotional) or needs ongoing support for a period, more sessions may be needed.
