What I help my clients to get their oomph back from issues that are typically tricky to shift including anxiety, chronic fatigue, exhaustion and chronic pain, Using a blend of health coaching, visualisation and other tools (NLP and hypnotherapy based), in any session you can expect to be educated on the mind body connection, whilst also being given tools that you can take away to influence your own health. How The success of these sessions is based on the principles of psycho-neuro-immunology – how our psychology influences our neurological health and in turn our immune system. This means sessions may cover anything from issues indirectly creating a stress response in triggering symptoms, or a direct focus on the symptomology itself. The first session is usually 90 minutes, followed by future session of 60 minutes. I would generally expect to see change quite quickly and, depending on the issue, if significant change has not been made within the first four sessions I would most likely recommend the Lightning Process. Why Having rebuilt my own health in the face of adversity, I am very confident in helping anyone struggling with chronic issues that won’t budge but will also be very direct when dealing with issues that may not be as easy to resolve.

Personal Having entered the world of marketing as a driven and ambitious professional, I experienced first-hand the effects of living life at 100mph. Living every day from a ‘work-hard, play-hard’ mentality, it wasn’t long before I suffered the effects of burnout; facing the diagnosis of a ‘lifelong’ autoimmune condition – Hashimoto’s disease. My future seemed bleak with rapidly deteriorating health, the potential loss of my career and a social life that was drawing to a close. Above all else, I felt I had become a shadow of myself and lost my sense of ‘me’. In 2016 I discovered the Lightning Process® and I never looked back. I rediscovered what it was like to have the prospect of a career, the opportunity to see friends and the return of my health. Above all, I rediscovered ‘me’ and I got my oomph back. This brings you to the person here today; driven by the desire to help passionate individuals pursue their dreams, free from burnout and stress-triggered chronic illness. While I have personally experienced a number of holistic approaches, I am a strong advocate of NLP coaching, and the Lightning Process® in particular, because it has helped me enormously on my own journey. Professional With a Psychology (BSc Hons), I am trained in coaching, NLP and hypnotherapy (diploma, advanced and masters level) as well as the Lightning Process by Phil Parker, a leading authority in the field of NLP and coaching, and designer of the Lightning Process®. I use this experience to offer health and performance coaching specialising in stress, burnout prevention and rebuilding health from chronic issues. My other career has been in the fast-paced world of marketing so I am well-versed in the challenges faced in this pressured environment. Today’s deadlines can overwhelm us and thankfully organisations are becoming more aware of the stress their employees are under and beginning to offer them innovative solutions like NLP.
