About Me

I qualified as a Clinical Hypnotherapist with a Diploma In Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy (DHP)

What is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy?

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a type of talking therapy, that combines the use of psychotherapy with hypnosis. Hypnosis, sometimes called trance is a very natural, relaxing state, encouraged by using guided relaxation, where the mind can relax and then focus on thoughts and suggestions that might be useful. 

My Client Testimonials

“Before hypnotherapy I was suffering with anxiety and depression, I had got over the worst but felt like I needed something to help me improve further so thought I would give hypnotherapy with Michelle a go. You can’t help but feel positive when in a session with Michelle. She is extremely good at listening and boosts your confidence with her responses. Michelle made me feel extremely comfortable during my sessions and no question/task was ever deemed too silly or too serious. The biggest result I’ve had is learning to believe I can do things. I’ve always had a negative mind set but in my hypnotherapy sessions with Michelle I’ve been challenging this head on with everything I do, especially when exercising and running. An older version of me would’ve given up and felt like I couldn’t do it, but now I have so much positive energy and thoughts that I am able to encourage myself that I actually can. Moving forward I know this positive mind set will continue, I have already taken part in 3 x 10k races within the last 6 months and have 3 more booked for the future. I’m setting my own personal realistic goals and feeling great when I achieve them. I would always suggest giving hypnotherapy a go. It’s a very calming and gentle therapy that only looks at positives and using your strengths rather than weaknesses. I could not recommend Michelle enough, she has been a great help and I have enjoyed every session with her. Thank you Michelle!!”

“Michelle is an amazing person and I can’t thank her enough for all she has done for me. If you’re unsure of anything Michelle will make you feel at ease. I feel amazing and more confident since having the therapy. She has changed my life! Thank you!”

“Before I found Michelle I was really struggling to deal with chronic pain 24/7, depression and anxiety, I completely lost all doubt in myself and was a mess to the point where I would cry at anything negative and bad going on in my life. Whilst I was doing my sessions with Michelle I found it really informative and she explained why I felt the way I did and how the brain is more powerful than we think, I also have a recording that I listen to before I go to sleep, sometimes it helped me fall asleep, but that was fine as subconsciously I was still taking in everything being said. I am amazed by the results already, I’ve had roughly 6 sessions and the change in how I see the world and situations is incredible! Even tough times I can take a moment and think about how I’m going to deal with a situation. My pain is still there as it’s something that will never go away, but it’s more in the background rather than consuming my life! I’ve enjoyed our sessions and being able to say “I’ve smashed it!” There’s nothing wrong with being proud of your own achievements! We even laugh during sessions. If you’re wondering if this is something that could help you, I’d say yes! Go for it! The only way is forward. I honestly thought I was stuck in my mind for the rest of my life but with Michelle’s help, I now know that is not true & I’m worth more and able to do more than I ever gave myself credit. You’ve got nothing to lose!!”
