ABOUT ME
Accredited BWRT Psychotherapist and Master Coach - Clinical Hypnotherapist - NLP Practioner and Coach -Mindfulness and Reiki Techer
I am an experienced and highly skilled therapist and coach. I have helped clients make a fast and lasting change since 2000. Do you want to find calm and lose the anxiety and stress from your life?Are you letting things slip just once to often? Are your limiting beliefs stopping you from the life you long for? Are you successful in some areas of life and not others? Do you want to increase self-esteem and confidence? Are you wondering is this all there is? Life is too short to be unhappy, unfulfilled, or unsure. By using cutting-edge psychological therapeutic tools, along with traditional practices, l will help you make those changes as quickly as possible.
For most of my life, I have lived with a chronic condition, and despite this, I have had several successful businesses. After fifteen years as a Podiatrist and Osteopath in private practice, 2000 was the year that I discovered Reiki, this was life-changing, and I became Reiki Master Teacher in 2002. In 2003 I started a property development company, and the results are still evident in the property portfolio I own, covering several areas of the UK and abroad. My journey as a coach and therpist began in 2005, training in NLP and hypnosis with Richard Bandler and Paul McKenna. I took my newly acquired skill set to make fast, lasting change in my life, improving every level. Others saw that change and quickly asked for me to help them too. As a coach, my journey continued with further training in NLP Coaching, Hypnotherapy, and Mindfulness at Central England College, BWRT with The Terence Watts BWRT Institute of which I am an advanced level 3 BWRT practitioner and Master Coach and finally Psychotherapy, WSN personality profiling and coaching at the Essex Institute. I now have a wonderful life, seeing clients 1 to 1 in person or by video call, running workshops and retreats at home and abroad.

BWRT® stands for 'BrainWorking Recursive Therapy®'. It is a model of psychology created by UK psychotherapist Terence Watts. It is a science-based way of working that deals with uncomfortable emotional or psychological triggers before they come into awareness. Most methodologies work by responding to a stimulus after it has come to our attention. BWRT® deals with the problem before it enters awareness in the conscious mind, at source. It results in you feeling better and able to react more appropriately. BWRT® is a very fast, highly effective, and lasting.

Clinical hypnotherapy is a powerful therapeutic approach that uses guided relaxation, focused attention, and deep concentration to access the subconscious mind. Rooted in neuroscience and psychology, it helps individuals overcome limiting beliefs, break unwanted habits, and manage stress, anxiety, and pain.
Clinical Hypnotherapy is a safe and evidence-based practice.. Clients remain fully in control as they enter a relaxed, trance-like state where they become more receptive to positive suggestions and insights. This process allows for deep mental reprogramming, leading to lasting behavioral and emotional changes.

Alexa, London
Despite achieving great success I have always suffered from imposter syndrome and was massive people pleaser. Not anymore!I am living my life being the best I can.
James, Edinburgh
I followed an alcohol reduction program with Lesley. 8 sessions took me from a bottle of wine a day to drinking a couple of glasses socially at the weekends.I discovered why I was drinking and what my triggers were. She also coached me in some stress reduction techniques to keep on the right path.
Lisa, Chester
I was suffering from crippling anxiety and it had started to affect all areas of my life. I had confided in a friend who recommended Lesley. We did it all online via zoom and by session three I felt a different person, by session six I felt ready to start living my best life. I know myself better and feel better equipped for the the good and bad times ahead.
ROBERT, Edinburgh
I had been asked to appear in a large work related court case and absolutely terrified. It took just one session with Lesley to sort out my fears. Three weeks later I was on the stand for a whole day, couldn't believe it, not a problem. I would not hesitate in recommending Lesley. Cannot thank her enough
Joanna, Surrey
I had been through an extremely toxic divorce. I had lost all my confidence, suffering from anxiety and depression. I thought my life was over and I didn't know who I was anymore. I am a year into my journey and life has completely changed, new job, new friends, new confidence and I have even been on holiday. I am now looking forward to the best of my life and some time in the future a new relationship.
