GP with expertise in hypnotherapy through the Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis with the South Australian Society of Hypnosis (SASH).  Initially a sceptic, I am now convinced hypnotherapy is a powerful and useful tool for assisting people lead the life the want to live.  I wish to further the research in hypnotherapy so that it can be used more widely and more effectively for people seeking change.    I apply techniques from more established psychological therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT).  I have found working with both the conscious and unconscious mind produces the best results .  Whilst I am interested in broadening my scope of practice to encompass managing trauma, psychological disorders such as anxiety and depression - as I work in solo practice for hypnotherapy- I encourage patients to continue to see their regular General Practitioner and/or Psychologist for ongoing care as my current part-time role does not enable me to offer crisis-care. Hypnotherapy allows us to approach problems in a creative, imaginative but also common-sense perspectives.  I will do my best to incorporate strategies that I feel have been well researched but also strategies that I have found useful in my own experience or that may be best suited to you.  With your permission I may call upon the expertise of mentors who have worked for many years in Clinical Hypnotherapy in association with the South Australian Society of Hypnosis (SASH) for guidance and ideas.

I aim to always provide emotional support and an open-ear for listening and value a non-judgemental approach to developing a safe therapeutic environment.  If I feel that our therapy is not helping your situation I will aim to recommend a different therapist that is more suited for your needs or who can provide a different approach.  I will not revert to so called "talk-therapy" which although can be useful for expressing and acknowledging emotions is not effective on its own as a true therapy although I am aware it is often the "default" mode of therapy amongst inexperienced and untrained therapists.
