This realisation led me to recognise how much of my natural compassion and empathy had been suppressed in order to maintain the image expected in my professional world.
This epiphany marked the next major juncture on my life path: to seek a better, more personally fulfilling vocation which I eventually found through qualifying as a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist — the therapeutic framework I now use to deliver real, tangible, positive outcomes for my clients’ personal, emotional, and psychological wellbeing.


My own emotional challenges led me to experience both hypnotherapeutic and cognitive behavioural treatment firsthand, so I am living proof of the profound benefits that can come from taking that brave step towards embracing one’s truth and seeking guidance to improve and heal one’s emotional and psychological wellbeing.
A commonly cited phrase among modern, humanistic therapists is that “All hypnosis is self-hypnosis.” I am a firm believer in this principle. If you are truly ready to help yourself — with my guidance — to live a better, more personally fulfilling life, I will do everything I can to help you achieve this in the most effective way possible, through a collaborative and compassionate process.

My work centred on delivering legal and fiscal solutions for wealthy international families. But...
