Jenny's backstory
Jenny became a hypnotherapist to help bring more peace into people’s lives. In her previous roles she managed & trained sales and marketing teams, constantly aware of the pressure generated by target-led situations. In looking for ways to support her team, Jenny trained as an NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) practitioner (PNLP) in 2002 with its founder, Richard Bandler. She soon found ways to apply the NLP skills she’d learnt and quickly realised how helpful these skills were at dealing with a variety of issues. In 2003, she trained to become a Licenced Training Specialist of NLP.

My hypnotherapy life
Jenny’s desire to help people grew and she realised that her focus had changed. She wanted to help people full time and with a wider range of more complex issues. Unfortunately, she realised that NLP alone would not be able to help her with more complex cases. After a good deal of research, looking for a hypnotherapy approach that would suit her own personality, Jenny signed up for a hypnotherapy training course in 2013. The school she chose to train with was CPHT Solution Focused Hypnotherapy Training. She qualified as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist (DSFH) in 2014. Jenny added to this qualification with the ‘gold standard’ in hypnotherapy qualifications (HPD) early the following year.
Jenny uses an approach called Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH). This is a blend of research-led psychotherapy and hypnotherapy that is effective in bringing about long-term change for her clients. It uses elements of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Neuroscience. A recent peer reviewed study with the Northumbrian Police has supported the effectiveness of the approach used by Solution Focused Hypnotherapists. After a period of further study, Jenny obtained the Advanced Hypnotherapy Diploma (AHD), the highest qualification available to Solution Focused Hypnotherapists, in 2017.
Helping others
In an attempt to help some of her hypnotherapy colleagues with her experience and knowledge, Jenny qualified as a hypnotherapy supervisor [Dip Sup (Hyp)] in 2016. She is now an accredited hypnotherapy supervisor for the National Council of Hypnotherapy. Jenny supervises other hypnotherapists, some of whom offer a different hypnotherapy modality. This gives her an understanding of other hypnotherapy styles. Over the years she has launched and run three hypnotherapy training schools using the SFH format. She also runs continuous professional development courses (CPD’s) for her hypnotherapy colleagues to help add to their knowledge base. With this level of hypnotherapy experience, you can be sure that with Jenny, you’ll be in safe hands.

Mum to 4, Grandma to 14
As a grandma of 14 herself, Jenny is very comfortable around all age groups and she finds working with teenagers particularly rewarding. She has a special interest in helping people with weight loss and supporting people with anxiety related issues. Her passion for bringing out the best in people regardless of their situation, has helped many clients over the years to leave their difficult emotional pasts behind. It is her belief that we should never underestimate people’s aspirations, so Jenny enjoys helping clients to achieve their goals, no matter what they are. She believes that accountability is very important and as such is a champion for the CNHC (MCNHC). She is also an accredited member of the National Council for Hypnotherapy [MNCH (ACC)].
If you’d like to let go difficult patterns of behaviour that are holding you back and stopping you from living the peaceful life you yearn for, get in touch with Jenny today. It could be the start of a wonderful journey to bring peace back into your life.
