About me

Hello!

A little bit about me…

I spent 20 years building my career in HR, with senior roles in tech companies for the last 10 years. This was all fantastic experience however I was often running on anxiety and adrenalin, my sleep was awful and I knew something had to change. After going through a proper burnout myself (very different from ‘I’m a bit burnt out’), I wanted to take a step back and figure out how I could make work ‘work’ for me, and what would really help me find joy in my life again!   

I loved the coaching part of my HR work and I’ve always been curious about holistic therapies.  Anxiety, sleep issues, overwhelm, imposter syndrome…..I’ve been there and hypnotherapy and coaching has helped me to make lasting shifts where other therapies didn’t. When you truly understand how your brain works and learn how to get it working as an ally for you, rather than against you, the difference can be life-changing.

I also have personal and direct experience of neurodivergence myself, and within my family, so have an understanding of the unique challenges (and gifts!) that this can bring. 

I take a compassionate but gently challenging approach and there is often laughter at my sessions too - therapy can be enjoyable!  At The Hypnotherapy Nook I want you to feel warmly supported and empowered to make meaningful, lasting change. I know from personal experience, it really can be done.
