I’m Sophie, I am a solution focused, clinical hypnotherapist and EFT practitioner… In my combined careers as both hypnotherapist and police officer, I have twenty years of experience of listening, holding space for people, and dealing with trauma. Working with adults and children of varying ages. I feel hugely privileged to be trusted by people with often the most vulnerable parts of themselves. Being able to facilitate and bear witness to people’s growth and transformation is something I will never take for granted. I genuinely believe everyone can make meaningful changes to their lives and the way they think, Hypnotherapy can gently help encourage and inspire people to access the answers that exist within them already. I work with clients from the age of 7 onwards, supporting anyone experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, PTSD, trauma, cravings and other challenges. If you can think about it, you can highly likely apply hypnotherapy techniques to it. By understanding the neuroscience behind how the brain creates anxiety, anger and depressive symptoms, I help you develop greater awareness, understanding and a sense of control. Combining practical, modern psychotherapy techniques with clinical hypnotherapy, I teach calming and grounding techniques that can be used wherever you are, helping you develop immediate and actionable coping strategies. My sessions are future-focused, centred around what you want to achieve and helping you move towards the person you want to be and the future you want to create. It is my opinion that the world is a better place when people are empowered. When people BELIEVE they are worthy and capable of more. I offer free consultations so please feel free to reach out and discuss your needs. Testimonies – "My heart felt like it was constantly racing, and even simple, everyday things felt overwhelming .

In 2024, I embarked on a mission to empower people, in my own clothes (no more uniforms!) and required a way of doing that…so I enrolled with Brighton CPHT training in September 2024, qualifying in July 2025 with over 200 client hours completed. Hypnotherapy provides a trusted modality to facilitate change, in a positive and forward-looking way.
I am a member of both the Association for solution focused hypnotherapists (ASFH) and the National Council of Hypnotherapists (NCH) because the police officer in me loves an accreditation, accountability and legitimacy!
In November 2025 I completed training in Emotional Freedom Tapping, a wonderful modality that compliments hypnotherapy and rounds the services I am able to offer. After experiencing the profound impacts of EFT personally, I was compelled to train in this area too. I continue to be intuitive with my continued professional development and the further training that I do. I always strive to offer my clients the best.
