I studied Classics at Cambridge University and moved to Leeds after qualifying in law. I now have a private counselling and hypnotherapy practice in Leeds and use a combination of Brief Solution Focused Therapy, Neuro-linguistic Programming and Hypnosis. The underlying assumption of all these approaches is that it is more helpful to focus on strengths and solutions than on difficulties.

Areas of particular specialism include: overcoming anxiety and phobias, confidence building and assertiveness, smoking cessation - but I have helped people with many other issues.
