About Me
Hello, I’m Alexandra
The path that led me to where I am today has taken many twists and turns, but each step has given me something invaluable which shapes the way I work. For a lot of my teenage years I felt lost and disconnected. As I grew older my world began to loose its former colour and appeal. I lacked any confidence at all and felt like I was losing who I really was, what it was to be ‘me’.
There are two key moments that helped me to reconnect with myself and find confidence, passion and happiness. The first was being convinced to take a Yoga Class. The second, seeking out help from a Cognitive Hypnotherapist.
Combined these two practices have allowed me to control the incessant chatter of the monkey mind, so that I can rest more and more in the present moment, rather than worrying about the past or wishing myself somewhere in the future.
Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH) is a dynamic, flexible and modern approach that is constantly evolving to take advantage of new therapy techniques and developments in neuroscience. CBH utilises different therapeutic influences including the most effective elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology, Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP) and Traditional Hypnotherapy. It is a highly rewarding process which explores how the way you act, feel and think colour your present experience and perception of the world.
My passion is supporting young female adults and women who are struggling with low self esteem, anxiety, perfectionism, or are trapped in cycles of negativity, to dissolve unhelpful beliefs and habits so that they can find a sense of belonging, purpose and self worth.
Through a deep and emphatic understanding I empower my clients with knowledge and skills to regain control over their own thoughts, feelings, behaviours and ultimately find happiness within their life.
