About Me
My Journey in International Finance
For many years, I worked in international finance as an editor of a newsletter and a success mentor to both individual and corporate clients. This career allowed me to enjoy a dynamic lifestyle, traveling extensively to incredible destinations such as Antigua, Barbados, Bali, Borneo, Fiji, and beyond. My area of expertise was Wealth Psychology, and I developed a deep understanding of how mindset influences success.
Discovering the Power of the Mind
As my curiosity about the workings of the mind grew, I recognized that we are capable of far more than we are traditionally taught. This led me to enroll in a revolutionary course on Behavioural Self-Management, which introduced me to the power of hypnosis—known then as working in the Alpha brainwave state—to achieve life-changing results.
Shifting Focus: From Success to Well-being
Over time, I began integrating elements of what I had learned into my mentoring practice. While the success my clients experienced was incredibly fulfilling, I found myself increasingly drawn to addressing deeper personal challenges such as health, confidence, and overall wellbeing. These areas resonated deeply with me, and they became my true passion.
Expanding My Qualifications
I went on to enhance my qualifications, earning a Certificate and Full Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis from the London School of Clinical Hypnosis. Today, I combine classical coaching techniques with clinical hypnotherapy to help my clients create meaningful and lasting change. My solution-focused methods prioritize both thoughts and emotions, because I firmly believe that true transformation requires more than positive thinking alone.
My Mission
It’s my mission to empower individuals to overcome challenges and unlock their potential—helping them achieve the balanced, fulfilling lives they desire.

I love helping people create the changes they truly want in their lives—even the ones they might not quite believe are possible yet, such as:
1. Sleeping well for the first time in years
2. Stopping smoking after a lifetime of nicotine consumption
3. Gaining control over menopause or IBS symptoms
4. Turning performance anxiety into focused achievement
5. Losing weight while enjoying food (yes, it is possible!)

Getting Clear On Your Goals
Oftentimes, people have a clear understanding of their feelings, the challenges they’d like to address, and their goals in life. Other times, this clarity might feel out of reach. To help, I’ve created a quick and simple exercise that takes less than a minute to complete. Whether you choose to get in touch with me or not, completing this exercise will provide you with an instant overview of how you view yourself and which areas of your life you’d like to enhance.
Simply make a list of the different areas of your life such as personal, marriage, mental health, social life etc, and rate each area on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being low and 10 being high. Don’t overthink your answers—just go with your first instinct.
This exercise offers a clear snapshot of the aspects of your life that are thriving and those you may want to focus on improving.
Repeat this exercise every month to keep track of your progress. If you continue for a year, maintaining a record of each month, you’ll be able to look back and see just how much you’ve achieved.
Start today and notice how your ratings shift as you focus on improving these areas!
