I worked in Industry for over 27 years before embarking on an academic path, where I obtained my Masters Degree at Manchester Metropolitan University, a PGCE at Bolton Institute, followed by my PhD at Salford University. I developed a consultancy business before personal issues overtook my life, and I began a journey of wonderment and change as I stumbled into Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy.

I am an Existential Psychotherapist … that means that I focus on the freedom of choice in shaping one’s own life. I guide and support clients to learn how to take responsibility, self-determination and self awareness, empowering individuals to change their life. Most people know what they do not want; seldom do people actually know what they do want.

The Dynamic Thought Transfer Process TM that I have developed enables clients to permanently resolve past issues. This empowers clients as they begin to understand and recognise new opportunities available to them, developing ideas of what it is they really want from life, the process provides support, as they build confidence and self-belief that they can achieve.

I have been qualified and working as a Psychotherapist since 2002 when I set up Mind For Life. I am passionate about my work, having many wonderful experiences of people changing their life, by learning how to disassociate past events, situations and relationships, to discover the real meaning of life … Peace, Forgiveness and Love.
