What can I expect in a hypnotherapy session?
Our initial consultation allows me to get to know you and to understand your concerns.
Subsequent sessions involve solution focused techniques where I help to guide you in finding solutions to your worries and in exploring the positive changes you can make to your life.
This is followed by hypnosis where you can relax your mind listening to the guided relaxation and suggestions that I hope you will find beneficial.
How many sessions are required?
Everyone is different! Sometimes people will notice a difference very quickly after only a few sessions and some people will need much more.
Smoking cessations sessions are one 90-minute session.
Fears and phobias usually require four sessions, however can be more.
How to book
My sessions are mainly online, however I can offer face to face sessions on Fridays within a lovely relaxing space at Solstice Wellness Centre, 49A Broughton Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3RJ
Online sessions are effective as it allows you to relax in the comfort of your own home.
Whether online or in person I provide a safe and confidential space.
Please email to enquire and I can follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss further.

“Helping people to feel good about themselves is at the heart of who I am”
I was raised in the Borders before I moved to Edinburgh 30 years ago. I have 3 grown up children and now live with my partner John in East Lothian. I enjoy walking, wild swimming, catch-ups with my family and friends and cooking. John and I are also upgrading our home so lots of mood boards are currently on the go!
I work as a health visitor after training in paediatric nursing. I work with young children and families in the community. I have noticed more and more adults and children struggle with their mental health, feeling overwhelmed with life with increased anxiety. I want to help.
Solution focused hypnotherapy appealed to me as it does not focus on problems, your troubles or on past events. It works by supporting you to find solutions and to help you get the very best out of yourself. It is an effective, positive, and hopeful approach.
Helping people to feel good about themselves is at the heart of who I am.
