You thought things would feel easier by the time you reached this age.
Maybe life wasn't supposed to be this hard. You figured you'd feel more settled, more confident, more in control. But instead, something just feels… off. You're tired. Anxious. Like you're stuck, and no matter what you do, it's hard to move forward.
You know you want more from life, you know you're capable of more, but it's hard to explain. You might feel disconnected from yourself or the people around you. Maybe your relationships are struggling, or you just don’t feel like yourself anymore.
You're not alone. I'm here for you if you decide to reach out.

Nothing you accomplish feels like enough. You hit your goals and immediately feel empty. You compare yourself to others and always lose. The baseline feeling is "I'm behind" or "I'm not doing enough" and it never goes away.
As a Clinical Psychologist registered in the EU and BACP Psychotherapist in UK, I help people like you get to the core of what’s driving the anxiety, overthinking, and self-criticism — often rooted in hidden patterns around self-worth and unresolved emotional needs.

I have years of experience with working with both individuals and couples I help partners improve their relationship by facilitating communication, resolving conflict, and strengthening emotional bonds. I guide couples through challenging situations, assess their needs, and develop individualised treatment plans.

I also conduct an individual assessment to understand each partner's emotional state and needs within the relationship. For individuals we work through whatever presenting issue they came to therapy for.

It is not uncommon at some point in our lives to feel stuck or disempowered and to experience a sense of uncertainty, loss or despair with emotions that seem difficult to process. It is part of the therapeutic process to help us understand why events and emotions impact the way we see and experience life, affecting our relationships with others and with ourselves. Therapy provides a safe and grounding space to explore behaviours or beliefs, possibly rooted in early life experiences, and how these may still affect how we feel, think and react today.

Anxiety takes over without permission. It steals your sleep, disrupts your appetite, and keeps your mind racing. The more you try to control it, the louder it gets. It isolates you from people you care about and holds you back from moving forward—applying for that job, speaking up, or simply enjoying life. Even surrounded by others, you feel alone, disconnected, and tired of pretending you’re fine. You long to feel safe, calm, and truly at peace within yourself.

Hypnotherapy Counsellors
How does hypnotherapy work?
Hypnotherapy works by using guided hypnosis to help you reach a state of focus and concentration through mental imagery and soothing verbal repetition. The state is somewhat like being absorbed in a book, a film, or your own thoughts. You are not under a therapist’s “control,” but they can help you relax and turn your attention inward to discover the resources to achieve behaviour change or better manage psychological concerns. Therapy sessions may involve guiding you through recognising a problem, releasing problematic thoughts about it, and considering and accepting more productive alternatives before returning to normal awareness. Hypnotherapy is typically used by a therapist along with traditional forms of talk therapy. Eventually, your therapist can help you learn hypnotherapy techniques yourself, so you can establish a stronger sense of control on your own in stressful or challenging moments.
Is hypnotherapy the same as hypnosis?
Hypnotherapy, which is sometimes called hypnotic suggestion, is a therapeutic technique in which a therapist uses hypnosis to help patients. It is not the kind of hypnosis portrayed in stage shows, or in movies or on television. You will not be unconscious or asleep during hypnotherapy, you will not lose control of yourself, your thoughts, or your free will, and you will be able to fully recall your experience. And while you will hear your therapist’s suggestions, it is always up to you to decide whether to act on them. Hypnosis by a trained mental-health professional is not a form of mind control, which is impossible to achieve anyway.
Can everyone be hypnotised?
The most common challenge of hypnotherapy is that as many as one in four people cannot be hypnotised. Brain imaging has confirmed differences in patterns of brain connectivity between those who respond to hypnotism and those who do not. Other people who could potentially be hypnotised may not respond to the technique because of their scepticism or resistance to entering a hypnotic state. If a therapist’s “post-hypnotic suggestion” is effective, it’s because they are suggesting something you want to achieve.
Does hypnotherapy work?
Through hypnotherapy, you can achieve changes that are real and sustainable. Like other talk therapy techniques, when hypnotherapy succeeds, it’s a case of mind over matter. Effective hypnotherapy involves self-healing because you access resources you need to change inside of yourself and learn how to tap into them whenever you need. Hypnotherapy has been shown to be an effective therapy for anxiety, phobias, stress, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress disorder, sexual dysfunction, and undesirable behaviours like smoking. It can be used to help improve sleep or to address relationship challenges, and to aid with pain management, digestive disorders, skin conditions, and the gastrointestinal side effects of pregnancy or chemotherapy.
