Am I properly qualified and trained? Yes I am!




I attended class room training at The Kent Institute of Clinical Hypnosis, based at Benenden Hospital Trust.  My training was under the supervision of the course founder leading international therapist and educator Terence Watts. Terence is the author of many best selling publications including Warriors Settlers and Nomads' his books are seen as important industry standard publications.

Terence Watts invited me to join him at The Essex Institute from January 2010 to assist him with his training course.  Today I enjoy helping train those people just coming into the industry. I have also become at the invitation of the institute an examiner for the Essex Institute Examination Board.

I was honoured to be nominated for an national and international award for student of the year at the end of my training.

Professional memberships include

The Association for Professional Hypnosis and Psychotherapy (APHP) based in England but has members all over the world.  What sets this  organisation apart from most of the numerous other hypnotherapy organisations is the fact that every single member has been personally interviewed before being invited to join and/or has received comprehensive training by a school whose standards have been rigorously investigated.

Also a member of The Hypnotherapy Association (HA)

The National Council of Psychotherapists (NCP).

I am registered as a CNHC recognised practitioner, the Department of Health recommends that, where CNHC registers the professional discipline in question, you consult with someone who is CNHC registered. This is because the CNHC rigorously checks the qualifications and training of those it registers.
