Senior Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist & Performance Anxiety Coach

I help clients navigate anxiety, stress, and self-doubt by developing practical strategies for greater awareness, resilience, and self-understanding. My work focuses on helping people regulate their nervous system under pressure so they can meet high-stakes moments with clarity and confidence.

Combining Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy, performance coaching, and counselling-informed techniques, I provide evidence-based, practical ways to create meaningful change. I work with adults in Bristol, London, Bath, and worldwide online. With over 13 years’ full-time experience and a 4.9 rating from more than 100 independent reviews, I offer personalised, results-oriented sessions grounded in neuroscience, solution-focused therapy, and self-compassion.

I support adults navigating anxiety, stress, social anxiety, stage fright, confidence challenges, panic attacks, stress-related conditions, and medical and academic exam or performance preparation. My approach helps people replace self-criticism with self-compassion, building sustainable confidence and resilience in work, creativity, and life.

Many of my clients are performing artists, healthcare professionals, educators, legal professionals, and creatives. Some seek support for visibility, leadership, or high-pressure performance, while others prepare for medical procedures or professional exams.

I also co-founded the Bristol Speakers Club, where we help people feel grounded and confident in public speaking through psychologically informed, body-based practice. I am the host of the upcoming podcast Soft Heart, Steel Nerves, exploring nerves, courage, and self-compassion with expert guests.

I offer a complimentary 10-minute introductory call to explore your goals and how we might work together. Sessions are available in-person and online, in a safe, inclusive, confidential space.
