About Nik
I know that sometimes life can get tough, and even the most proficient and capable people can feel overwhelmed and lost amongst the noise. We can lose direction, forget what it feels like to be fulfilled, in control, or on the right track.
I provide a supportive, non-judgmental space to help you through a wide range of problems, including anxiety, chronic stress and stress-related conditions, trauma, breaking bad habits, and lack of confidence or focus.
Sessions are tailored to meet your unique needs. You can gain tools to unlock a calmer mind, sharpen your focus, and build a life you truly enjoy being a part of.
I am a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist, having trained in the 'gold standard' of practice, and acquired a Diploma in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (DSFH), as well as the Hypnotherapy Practitioners Diploma (HPD). I'm an NLP Master Practitioner and mBIT (Multiple Brain Integration Technique) Certified Coach , and Trauma Therapist (IARTT).
I keep up regular supervision and Continued Professional Development (see below for specific areas of development).
In addition to my role as a Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist and Coach, I have a background in senior business development roles, I am a mother of two, and a smallholder and am trained in Reiki Therapy and KI (Energy) Therapy.
My training in Hypnotherapy is regulated by the CNHC and is Government approved by the Professional Standards Authority. I am fully affiliated and insured and follow the code of conduct of those governing bodies and hold an advanced DBS check.
