About Me
I’m Charlotte, a qualified counsellor and hypnotherapist from Hadleigh in Suffolk.
Now in my late fifties, I have weathered a variety of work and indeed, life experiences. Having been “at the sharp end” for a few years, I am very aware that life doesn’t always run smoothly and the challenges with which any one of us can be presented often require some help and support. As a highly empathic individual and professional practitioner, I can offer you such help and support. With over eight hundred hours of client work behind me, I understand and respect the value of you as an individual and that of your own unique situation. I will therefore tailor your therapy specifically to you and your needs, helping you to achieve your goals and fulfil your potential.
I have a background in working with a variety of people in different situations. I use counselling or hypnotherapy to assist clients who want to alter habitual behaviours, manage issues relating to anxiety and depression and process life events. In addition, my particular areas of interest involve engaging with people who are struggling with problem addictive behaviours and/or unhealthy relationships.
Along with my private practice and my work in education, I spent two years as a voluntary counsellor with Iceni, Ipswich and four years as a registered practitioner with the Hypnotherapy in Schools Programme. I am also a registered counsellor with Anxiety UK and I am registered to practice the IARRT Rewind Technique. I offer face-to-face counselling and/or hypnotherapy from my cosy, calm and comfortable space which is wheelchair accessible, or online therapy for those who prefer not to travel.
Always determined to provide the best that I can, I engage with different continuing professional development opportunities, to ensure that my knowledge and understanding of hypnotherapy and counselling is current. I monitor my own practice by attending regular supervision for myself and I am committed to my own self-development.
I am an accredited member of the National Hypnotherapy Society and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society.
