About me
A warm welcome, I am Jacqueline an experienced Psychotherapist, Counsellor Hypnotherapist, including Specialist Hypnotherapy RTT (Rapid Transitional Therapy) and Mindfulness wellbeing Practitioner, working therapeutically with young people and adults.I am committed to providing a safe, calming, respectful and non judgemental space, to gently explore any difficulties you may be experiencing.
Sessions are a designed to offer a welcomed release, generating supportive change..clarity..focus.. mobilisation…empowering the development of calm, motivation, energy and self esteem.
Together, fully supported, we work towards a deeper understanding of experiences or feelings triggering emotional distress, depression, low esteem, anxiety, stress, fear, trauma, phobia, and potentially feelings of guilt or shame.
The first session, the initial consultation, generally takes around 1 hour, it is an information gathering session, together we build a picture so to create an individualised therapeutic plan. The first appointment is also the first step in getting to know each other, empathically creating an environment for you to feel comfortable to discuss any concerns and talk freely. If you wish to move forward with a personalised therapeutic plan, further sessions will take place, ideally weekly and last for approximately 50 minutes.
I too recognise how daunting it can be looking for the right counsellor, having experienced of living with high anxiety and a constant feeling of not being good enough, impending doom. When I first had counselling I remember not knowing what questions to ask, so please be reassured all are valid, please just ask.

The effects of trauma can show in many ways, potentially, individuals can experience high emotion or low emotion, more detached, notice changes in self esteem, mood, behaviours, thought and feeling patterns. Traumatic experiences can cause the nervous system to become stuck in a state of high alert or hypo alert, a fear response, also noticed by a reduced ability to take in and process information, interact with others, express emotion or feel safe. May also show up like brain fog, confusion, self doubt, on edge, overwhelmed, hyper focusing and or over thinking, alternatively, shut down, flat, low motivation, low energy, exhausted, unable to focus and feeling dumb.
Introducing Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT)
Specialist Hypnotherapy
Rapid Transformational therapy is often described to be a hydride therapy, expertly orchestrated by Marisa Peer drawing from Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Neruo-linguistic programming (NLP) and Hypnotherapy with aim to uncover the root the reason and cause of any issues faced.
Similarly as with other forms of therapy we prioritise a save space to soothe the nervous system and gently become an expert explorer, observing how, where, why and when limiting beliefs, anxiety, stress, phobia, worry and or trauma have formed and got stuck, stored, subsequently negatively impacting thoughts, feelings, actions, relationships, goals and or health, forming distressing unhelpful patterns. Dissimilarly to some other forms of therapy RTT is designed to offer a rapid transformation, a swift shift, quickly prompting a move away from the established learnt beliefs, pressure and stress, rewiring and redirecting a healthy, helpful updated programme, a new way of thinking and feeling, one that works for you, no longer against you.
Both body and mind finds a way to let us know, very loudly sometimes, that we need an essential pause, recovery, rest, time to recoup and restore, the energy levels are exhausted, absolutely spent with there being nothing left in the tank, hence the saying, we cant drink from an empty cup.
It’s time to create that all important and so frequently forgotten and misunderstood pause, essential recovery.
RTT also offers a range of transformational techniques including Cell Command Therapy
Cell Command Therapy is informed by extensive research in the field of Epigeneics, Dr Bruce Lipton evidences that our genes are influenced by our environment also our thoughts, actions, emotions, highlighting how we communicate to self, about self and how we perceive the world around us fundamentally impacts at a cellular level.
Powerfully RTT promotes a process of neurological reconditioning, locating and releasing stored, trapped trauma, updating learnt outmoded beliefs so to actively create and install updated messages, change within the primary environment, the body and mind, freeing us to so create further changes in the external environment if needed and necessary.
It is a bit like learning a new language, a compassionate language, learnt simply through repetition, the mind and body learn through repetition.
Creating a calming safe space, a nurturing environment, I empathetically offer bespoke personalised sessions, respectfully promoting exploration and uncensored self expression at your pace, learning to meet self exactly where we are, leaving unrealistic high expectations and demands behind. Together we supportively, actively get curious, so to gain a deeper understanding along with self compassion and a realistic pace, re-establishing balance and equilibrium, prioritising wellbeing, moving into a state termed, rest and digest, feeling calm, soothed and connected.
Noting the current repetition is firing in and strengthening exactly what we don’t want more stress, worry and fears, being our biggest critic, spiralling feeling stuck the more it is repeated the stronger it gets, so we place focus to learning what you do want, focus, calm, flow and tranquillity, to be your own best friend, biggest supporter, cheerleader and advocate, a transformative communication style, phenomenally promoting growth, moving forward healing.
The RTT process generates healing at the cellular level, giving the body and brain the instructions it needs to regenerate and repair, receiving a new message, reconditioning to optimal health, restorative.
You will also receive a complimentary bespoke transformational recording to further promote soothing the nervous system, achieving your goals in away that works for you, understanding we learn through repetition.
PLEASE NOTE RTT sessions last approximately 90 minutes at a fee of £150 offered to individuals aged 18 years and over.
With the same ethical and nurturing ethos I offer bespoke Mindful wellbeing sessions either stand alone or integrated, drawing from more than one therapeutic model. Sessions are a designed to offer a welcomed release, generating supportive change..clarity..focus.. mobilisation…empowering the development of calm, motivation, energy and self esteem.
