I am an experienced clinical hypnotherapist who has chosen to specialise in helping parents achieve a calm, relaxed, joyous birth using HypnoBirthing® techniques.
I trained and qualified in Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy at the Essex Institute of Clinical Hypnosis www.EICH.co.uk with the internationally renowned Terence Watts, a senior clinician and one of the most respected Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists in the country. I have Diplomas and Advanced Diplomas in Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy.
When I decided to specialise in assisting women and their partners achieve the birth they wanted, I researched the methods available. Through research, recommendations and reputation I chose to train as a HypnoBirthing® practitioner with Jenny Mullins in Northampton, www.hypnobirthing.co.uk. Please check my credentials - I am listed as a HypnoBirthing® practitioner at www.hypnobirthing.com/uk_kent.htm, and I am happy to be governed by HypnoBirthing®'s Code of Conduct.
I am fully covered by professional indemnity insurance, and belong to the General Hypnotherapist Register (GHR), comprising of individual practitioners who are able to satisfy their exacting criteria with regard to both training and ongoing requirements.
Naturally, all members of the Register are bound by a Code of Practice and Ethics. There is an unconditional guarantee of confidentiality, and you can rest assured that I will always act with total discretion. You can find out more about the GHR and check my credentials by visiting www.general-hypnotherapy-register.com.
I am committed to Continuous Professional Development, and during the last year have attended masterclasses and training courses in Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression, SymbioDynamics® practitioner training, and have recently trained as a Cognitive Behaviour Therapist (CBT).
