A little about me. . .

---

My story is one I’m sure you’ve heard before... I was a people pleaser from a young age, always trying to prove myself to others, while losing myself with every step and struggling with my appearance and weight. By the age of 25, I’d made it – or everyone thought I had. I had the fancy corporate career, the house and a boyfriend who fit the mould. I’d ticked every box, yet I was the unhappiest I’d ever been. I quit my job, broke up with the boyfriend, and spent the next six years trying to find what made me happy. I looked in all the wrong places, had all the wrong people around me and made the wrong choices – all of which supported the negative narrative that was ruling my mind.

I’ve always been one of those people who can go from one emotion to another in a split second, and my emotions controlled me. Counting to ten to calm my anger, or taking a deep breath to tackle overthinking, trying to block out anxious thoughts – none of these were something I could do when I needed to. All this had a massive impact on my life. It would stop me going out and seeing friends, I would allow people to take advantage of me, and I couldn’t sleep. Every day felt like I was wearing a mask, hiding how I really felt and being stuck in negative emotions which didn’t serve me and were not aligned to my true self.

The moment I started tapping, I felt an energy come through me like nothing before: a sense of acknowledgement, acceptance and finally release. I had gone down the rabbit hole and a whole new world was waiting for me on the other side. It wasn’t easy, but I finally had the tools to start to change my life. I’m a logical person and for a long time I refused to accept energy work; I needed to know the science behind my mind and these emotions.

That’s when I started leveraging neuro linguistic programming and hypnotherapy. Now, through a combination of these tools, I am able to live the life I always wanted. I am happy, I have goals, and can look in the mirror and smile at who I am. I enjoy the little things in life and truly believe anything is possible when you have emotional freedom.

I have always been passionate about the power of the mind and got my degree in Criminology and Psychology (BSc) from Southampton University. After this I launched into the world of technology, climbing the corporate ladder and gaining a wealth of knowledge around the importance of people management, self management and the skills to problem-solve. I managed multiple teams globally, implemented a graduate scheme and ran multi-million pound projects.

I certified as a life coach (PG L7 equivalent) before specialising in Neuro Linguistic Programming (Practitioner & Coach), Emotional Freedom Therapy (EFTi L2) and Hypnotherapy, obtaining various qualifications and accreditations with professional bodies (including EFTi & ABNLP). I am a member of the Association for Coaching and fully insured.

We all know there’s thousands of coaches, practitioners and hypnotherapists - I'm sure they would all be able to help you - however it’s so important you work with someone who you relate to, be honest and open with and, above all, someone that has the right qualifications.

I really look forward to working with you; whatever your dream is I want you to achieve it!
