I Design My Life

I was born in the UK, and immigrated to Australia in the 80’s with my husband and daughter moving to Melbourne. I loved Melbourne, it’s four seasons in one day, and we wore tee-shirt and shorts in winter, beautiful and very welcoming. I enjoyed my work at Coles Myers HO.

 

As a family we holidayed in Western Australia, and of course we loved it, especially for our growing family. Life happens, it was time to evolve. I realised I needed to start over, so…off to university. This was the best time of my life, learning, I loved being around people wanting to help, care and share their knowledge.

​

I graduated, and for many years worked in TAFE, corporate and later doing compliance. Evolving with my children, supporting them the best way I could helping with school work, sports and juggling life’s challenges which we’re never planned for, all the emotional ups and downs. And at the same time, looking after my mother who lived in chronic pain, (mom also had mental issue).

 

It’s tough, these times, juggling everyone. ​Sometimes, we may feel pressured (our own natural caring self/or others seeing us as the only person to do the role) and we take on more caring. ​Because we don’t see what’s happening to our feelings, and this builds into overwhelm, we’re struggling with family, work responsibilities, and carer stress. The slow increase of our bad habits just takes over, we feel comfortable.

​

We forget about ourselves, we just carry on, ignoring the extras issues impacting on our life. We may have less time, less flexibility, reduced time for our personal relationships and work may be impacted (being emotional, stressed, overwhelmed, time off work etc) which can mean reduced finances and additional tensions exasperating your wellness, health and lifestyle.

 

I know I was past exhausted. By chance I looked for help, and went to a Hypnotherapist.

 

This path helped me to relax. I became calmer in many situations allowing me to take that breath, and pause. I knew this was for me.

 

My background is unique, worker business owner, mother, and carer enable me to empathise, to naturally imagine and share with your personal issues and stress. ​These roles influenced my life, my skills, my understanding and passion towards helping others.

 

My overriding philosophy is “I care, and it’s a pleasure to help my clients”. ​Helping YOU with Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy tools, to reduce stresses, help find clarity, reduce anxiety, “feeling good”, will flow and ripple out to people around you.

 

You may be struggling silently alone or within family and have lots of people round you, but feel isolated, no one understands. It’s time to take control

 

​I welcome the opportunity to provide you an individualised program for you.

​People sense they can approach me; they feel comfortable and at ease.

​​

My services in Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy may be able to help you with ongoing stress, many family issues, unhelpful habits and overwhelm.

 

Hypnosis can be very simple natural tool, as simple as breathing, e.g. As I “ inhale” I might start to relax and as I “exhale”  feel a gentle flow of relaxation, as we create feeling of hypnosis.

 ​

I know the importance of listening.

I am asking you to pick up the phone to manage your wellness, and care for you now. We have tools you need to feel supported.

​

I have Clinical Hypnosis and Psychotherapy programs which are individually adapted for you, creating a natural balance to nurture and restore your wellness journey.

​

I am largely taught by professional Rick Collingwood who is the founder of The Australian Academy of Hypnosis (1993) I’ve updated my skills and qualified for the Advanced Diploma of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy.
