I have a wealth of clinical experience as a Registered Nurse in London, UK, New Zealand and Australia – spanning Paediatrics, Emergency Medicine, Surgical and General Medicine. I also trained in Occupational Health at the Royal College of Nursing, London.
My academic background includes a Science Degree (Hons) in Health Psychology.
“I became a Registered Nurse to help people heal. I studied neuroscience when I realised how much healing the body needed from the mind.”
Additional to my clinical experience, I have studied areas of neuroscience, and how the brain processes our thoughts, emotions, memory and consciousness and how they affect our health.
It is scientifically evident that the management of our thoughts and emotions is one of our strongest elements for recovery, wellness and change.
I trained in Clinical Hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming with Dr Richard Bandler, the Co-Creator of NLP. And also in RTT with Marisa Peer.
My passion and interest in mind health began during placements at a Neurological hospital and in a Psychiatric unit in London. I became interested in how the mind works and how the mind’s thinking system affects our health. I have since studied and explored ways to treat mind health naturally, that have no side-effects and are non-addictive.
“Most people have never been shown how their own mind works- or what it’s quietly doing beneath the surface of every symptom, every pattern, every feeling of being stuck. When you begin to understand this, something shifts. You stop managing your life and start directing it- from the inside out.”
I am a Reiki Practitioner, but my depth of study in this area goes much deeper. I currently train at the Dr Barbara Brennan School of Healing, (4 years) one of the world’s most respected programmes in energy medicine- bridging scientific integrity with the deeper dimensions of human healing.
The subconscious mind makes up about 95% of our total brainpower, and it stores all of our memories, beliefs, fears, habits, addictions and all our life experiences. About 90% of our daily thoughts are the same thoughts as the day before, and a high percentage (about 70%) of those thoughts will come from a subconscious programme that may be having a negative effect on our health and our relationships with other people. Until we become aware of these programmes and how they can dominate our thinking we may find ourselves leading a life where making change is difficult.
I use the science of Hypnosis to help clients relax the mind and nervous system down to theta brainwave, a space we are all naturally in at least twice a day, drifting into sleep and waking up. This brainwave is the perfect place to make the necessary changes in the subconscious mind. It is suggestible and absorbs information like a sponge, but the new information does need to be repeated many times over, as the mind learns by repetition.The analytical mind relaxes in theta so there are no critical thoughts getting in the way. Hypnosis goes straight to the subconscious mind.
I understand how the energy system can positively affect the body and mind on a cellular level. It calms, balances and harmonises, bringing the human system back into homeostasis and coherence. It is highly effective for improving immune health that is so important in today’s world. Your mind-body-energy systems are all interconnected.
I look forward to working with you!
