My experience

I have been a teacher and senior leader in primary education for over 30 years. I have always had a real passion for developing the life chances and mental health of children, their parents, carers and families so decided to further develop my skillset by training to be a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist. My vast experience of coaching and mentoring, alongside my interest in neuroscience, meant it felt like a very natural transition into Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. I now work with children and adults to enable them to formulate their own strategies to manage stress or anxiety. I work with clients on an individual basis but also offer group talks around brain research and a positive approach to mental health. I explain the ‘why’ so individuals can work out the ‘how’ that will support them to achieve the life they desire.

More about me

First-hand experience of change

Having personally experienced the impact of solution-focused hypnotherapy, Jill understands how powerful it is to learn how your own brain works and why it responds the way it does.

Real life understanding

Life experiences including loss, trauma, health challenges, work-related stress and motherhood provide genuine insight into the pressures many clients face.

Empowerment through understanding the brain

Learning how the brain reacts to perceived danger was a turning point, allowing stress to be recognised and managed more effectively rather than allowing it to overwhelm.

Supporting people to thrive, not just cope

Jill is passionate about helping clients move beyond simply ‘getting by’ to exceeding their own hopes for the future and thriving in their lives.
