I’m Steph.

I support parents and carers of children with additional needs who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or at breaking point.


My integrative therapy approach blends hypnotherapy, CBT, and mindfulness to support you in a way that reflects the unique pressures of SEN parenting – the constant advocating, the emotional load, and the feeling that you have to stay strong for everyone else.

You’ll have a warm, inclusive, judgement‑free space where you can talk openly about what life is really like. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening for you right now and how it’s affecting your wellbeing, your confidence, and your capacity to cope.

Through our work, you’ll learn practical tools that help you feel calmer, more grounded, and more able to navigate daily challenges – whether that’s managing difficult moments with more ease, handling school meetings with more clarity, or finding small pockets of rest without guilt.

My therapy is solution‑focused. We’ll set meaningful goals early on so you can clearly see the changes in how you feel, how you respond, and how you show up for yourself as well as your child.

You may be surprised by how quickly life can start to feel lighter and more manageable with the right support behind you.

integrative approach

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps you see how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are connected. By spotting and changing unhelpful thinking patterns, it can help you feel less anxious, lift your mood, and build confidence.

Hypnotherapy

Clinical Hypnotherapy works to focus your attention to allow yourself to be open to accepting positive suggestions for change. The hypnotherapy I practice is not anything like what you see with stage hypnosis; there is no trance – it’s an evidence based process that is a very relaxing and refreshing experience.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness helps you slow down and feel more in control when life gets overwhelming. By bringing your attention to the present moment, it can give you space to feel calmer, clearer, and more emotionally balanced.

Step 2: Consultation

The next step is a 1.5-hour Consultation Session, where I’ll get to know you and the issues you’d like to work on. We’ll go through a full health assessment, set your therapy goals, and I’ll explain exactly what hypnotherapy is – busting any myths along the way! You’ll also leave with a tool or two you can start using straight away.

From there, we’ll work through a personalised treatment plan, which typically involves 4–6 sessions (around 1 hour each), depending on your specific needs and goals.
