About me

Hi, I’m Colette and I am a qualified clinical hypnotherapist and psychotherapist. I started my journey in hypnotherapy when I trained with The Clifton Practice (CPHT), a recognised Centre of Excellence for hypnotherapy in the UK. I love my job as a hypnotherapist and helping clients to move forward and achieve their goals.

I also have 25 years experience in the NHS as a children’s nurse and school nurse working as a public health practitioner with children, young people and families to support them to make positive choices and improve their life chances, and have studied Perinatal and Child and Adolescent Mental Health and Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare during my career.  I am also trained as a Reiki Practitioner and Reiki Master.

I hold the Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD), which is the Gold Standard in Hypnotherapy Training and is an externally accredited qualification and a Diploma in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a type of clinical hypnotherapy that has integrated the key benefits of Solution Focused psychotherapy approaches with safe and relaxing hypnosis or trance.

With this therapy we look to the future. There’s no dwelling on the past and we use the client’s own strengths to help them move forward quickly. The essence of Solution Focused Brief Therapy is to have a conversation focused on the client’s best hopes and to explore in detail a client’s preferred future. A future where their hopes have been achieved. We then work together to identify the possible resources and strengths that each client has within them in order to to attain that future.

I have full insurance and up to date enhanced DBS. I am compliant with General Data Protection Regulation requirements.
