My qualifications include a Diploma in Hypnotherapy, a Diploma in Advanced Hypnotherapy, a Diploma in Personal Development, a Certificate in Hypnotherapeutic Supervision and a Certificate in Counselling Skills in addition to further specialised training in Analysis (which incorporates a full Training Analysis) and Advanced Therapeutic Skills. I also make a point of continually developing my skills and knowledge in order to ensure that my clients may benefit from the most effective and rapid resolution of their problems possible.

My UK Confederation of Hypnotherapy Organisations registration number is 81357. UKCHO promotes the professional regulation of hypnotherapy within the United Kingdom, to ensure that Hypnotherapists are safe and competent to practice and that they adhere to national standards of ethics and training. To find out if an Hypnotherapist is UKCHO registered, you can check (free of charge) at www.ukcho.co.uk

I am an accredited member of both the Association for Professional Hypnosis and Psychotherapy and The National Council for Hypnotherapy. These organisations are registered members of UKCHO and are dedicated to the professional and ethical use of hypnosis.

Accredited Hypnotherapists must have undertaken approved training to satisfy an Examination Board of their competence to practice and have subsequently had a minimum of 5 years' clinical experience. A comprehensive Code of Ethics and Practice ensures that every practising member is covered by Professional Indemnity Insurance and receives regular supervision of their practice. All members are bound by a Duty of Care towards their clients.

I provide stress management related training through 'The Partnership' (in which I am a partner) and am involved in the provision of staff support services to two large local employers. I am also an NVQ qualified trainer and assessor.
