Hi guys,
I am a cognitive hypnotherapist, trained with the Quest institute in London.
We 'Questies' draw from NLP, CBT, EFT, Gestalt, and positive psychology, to tailor a bespoke and unique treatment plan for each of our clients.
This gets supported and enhanced by a so called Word-Weaving, which is based on the solutions and goals of my clients.

A few sessions with Evelyn gave me a support blanket for life.
I have been living with Multiple Sclerosis for 17 years but recently became overwhelmed with the struggle to keep going and stay positive.
I felt I had to re-set and untangle all my symptoms so I surrounded myself with all the help I could access, Tai-chi, pain relief, physio, relaxation classes and counselling. I was still scolding myself however for not being happy when other people were worse than me, I felt guilty, angry and exhausted. A friend urged me to contact Evelyn as she thought she would be good for me. I was cynical and pessimistic as had tried so many therapies but was assured that Evelyn would work hard to give me what I needed at the time. I reluctantly made contact and felt initial resistance at Skyping and having to go over the familiar sequences of counselling. My 'whats the point' attitude actually shifted. Knowing the answers and what you should do is not enough. Evelyn encouraged me to work through the feelings that arose, hear them, play with them using different visualisation techniques, timelines, tapping, until I had voiced them, understood them and stood back from them. In a very short time I had relaxed, cried, laughed and breathed relief within each session! The time was very interactive as we chatted like friends yet Evelyn was able to follow my lead on what I needed and what worked best for me and guide the session along so it still felt structured. An important difference that I have not experienced before was that in between our sessions I didn't feel dropped - I felt that Evelyn had really invested her time in me and would send e-mails for links on dietry advise, articles, suggested reading, bespoke meditation recordings - anything she thought might be of benefit and this was not only helpful in my own 'support toolbox' but also made me feel like she was always there for me to fall back on - she became my comfort blanket. I really felt like she had picked me up and set me off on the road again and although I have no future sessions booked in with her at the moment, I certainly plan to keep checking in. The change in me was noticeable not only to myself but to friends and family too. I stopped struggling and made space for creative energy and felt so much happier and lighter. I am still using her techniques and suggestions regularly as they nudge me back on track. When I realised that I wasn't just paying money for an hours session, but was investing in the healing of my hurts and making things easier and brighter in my everyday, it became much easier to find the money to put aside. I would recommend that everybody has Evelyn in their lives at some point as she would undoubtedly leave a positive healing support blanket for them to curl up in when needed.

Evelyn's techniques helped me many times to settle down after stressful days at work. I wasn't expecting that much benefit, but I really must say it's amazing and it does a lot!

What do you love most about your job?
I love that I am able to help people with a very versatile tool box of highly efficient interventions and strategies in order to help them to achieve their goals and to feel empowered to live the life of their dreams.
Knowing how long conventional Psychotherapy can take until it makes a difference, I love that with cognitive hypnotherapy we found ways that most of the problems can be dissolved in only 4-6 sessions.
I love to work with the unconscious mind, rather than with the conscious mind, because 92% of our behaviour is unconsciously driven and therefore it makes only sense to communicate with the subconscious to help my clients to behave in ways they chose to behave.
I love to be a holistic therapist and enable my clients to live their lives the way they want it to be, because there is a lot we can do for ourselves and the power within is far greater than anyone has permitted you to believe. I love to help my clients to unlock their blocks and to unleash this incredible power within.
I love to work with my clients solutions and goals, rather than with the problems, as this is firstly much more fun and also way more efficient.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I am a dually trained nurse, general and mental health, since almost 2 decades and I have worked a long time in a Psychiarty in Munich / Germany and also in the Priory Hospital in Woking and I work currently part time as a community psychiatric nurse within the NHS. In all this years, I have experienced a lot of good things but also how dreadful and frustrating it can be for patients with a mental illness to get the help they need. And if they can finally get the therapy they require, it can take years and years to help them feel better.
I thought to myself, I'd like to offer something that can help more quickly and permanent and in the same way empower the patient/client to help themselves.
I like the metaphor that many therapies throw a life jacket at the client and that is fine, as long the life jacket is intact. However, if the life jacket gets deflated for any reason, the client is drowning again and in need of another life jacket. Cognitive hypnotherapy does not throw life jackets at the client, it will teach them how to swim.
Why should our clients choose you?
If you suffer from an auto immune disease, I can help you to support your immune system in healing you. I can help you to rid yourself of all the negative emotions that you may have developed before the disease or afterwards or because of the disease. This might not only stop the regular release of stress hormones to your body, but also make you feel much better within yourself and it might as well help you to live and enjoy your life again to the fullest and in happiness.
I have MS myself and I found cognitive hypnotherapy incredible helpful and I love to share this magic with my fellow warriors.
I have over 2 decades experience as a mental health nurse and 2 years experience as a cognitive hypnotherapists and it is my absolute passion to help my clients to achieve their goals, not matter which goal it is.
With me, you'll have an experienced and determined holistic therapist and I will also not watch the clock too much in our sessions.
