How to be a better leader

Everyone is a leader in some way. But not everyone is a good leader. Why? We don’t always see what we’re supposed to do. Our children look to us for guidance. Our team at work for inspiration. Our friends when times get tough. Countless times per year you are looked to for leadership and countless […]

Corporate coaching with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and hypnosis

I didn’t start out as a corporate coach. I trained as a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist. Admittedly, I spent 35 years in the corporate world rising to board level. And working in London, Singapore, Berlin, Amsterdam, and Wellington. I ended up working with Lionel Messi, Neymar, Serena Williams, and Nick Kyriagos amongst others. Nowadays in my […]

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and hypnotherapy for your inner child

“The Inner Child”. It sounds a cliché. It’s not. It’s an idea that lies close to common sense. Why? Because inside us there’s a version of all the people we have ever been.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and hypnosis for loneliness

We live in an ever-more connected world. We can call, face time and text. But we’re lonelier than ever. We work online from home, shop online, there are fewer buses to help us get out, we meet fewer people, bump into fewer people for a chat, we bank online rather than in branch. Even at […]

Sympathy, empathy and Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy

The words sympathy and empathy are used widely these days. Often interchangeably. But they’re not the same. Sympathy is more a feeling of pity for someone. We share the same feelings. Often, in reality, a relief at not having the same problems. Empathy, on the other hand, is the ability to understand how someone feels. […]

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health problem you may develop after experiencing traumatic events. The condition was first recognised in war veterans. It has had different names in the past, such as 'shell shock', but it's not only diagnosed in soldiers. In fact, a wide range of traumatic experiences can cause PTSD: being […]
