It can only be described as an epiphany… The day I decided to retrain to help people find a better way of living and offer Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.
I personally became interested with Hypnotherapy when an old school friend started her training, I was intrigued and so I volunteered for a group relaxation session. I soon realised that it was more like a gentle guiding hand and common sense than the dark art that I thought it was! I have since discovered the depth of science behind the workings of our mind and why trance works so well with the right stimulus and context. I have seen great results from this method personally.
My belief in positivity and my compassion for people has inspired me to follow my friend into a brand new career, I knew that an opportunity to retrain in helping people would be the cherry on top of my career. I am absolutely loving it and enjoying seeing great results with my clients. (See the reviews on our home page)
I decided to enrol in ‘Solution Focused’ Hypnotherapy because of the swift results and because the sessions are positive. The course I opted for was the best in this field and gave me an opportunity for a second qualification in the ‘practice of Hypnotherapy’ which I will soon complete ensuring a professional environment at Metta Hypnotherapy.
Having enjoyed 13 years of being self employed as a soft furnishing specialist I am delighted for the opportunity to keep my hand in, alongside my new practice, and share my skills once a week with a local upholstery specialist. The company share the same design and customer service ethics as I do, and are now expanding their offer further. (see link)
I have a grown up family now and enjoy time with my granddaughter. My husband and I enjoy cooking, sailing, mountain biking, motorcycling and camping, I practice Yoga, sketch and indulge in cold water swimming. Like most people life has thrown some curve balls our way but positivity, research and perseverance have guided us slowly but surely, and this has driven me to help others see the light at the end of the tunnel and enjoy life to the fullest.
