Thank you for visiting my website. My name is Fiona and I have been
working full-time as a hypnotherapist and Reiki Practitioner since 2001
and EFT Practitioner since 2002. I am a full member of the General Hypnotherapy Council and work according to their code of ethics.
I have recently moved back to Mirfield after living in Redcar,
Cleveland for 9 years. I was born in Huddersfield and lived for many
years in Mirfield, near Dewsbury. I began my career as a nurse for 13
years, training at Westminster Hospital in London and spending the last
four years of my nursing life as a Clinical Teacher at Dewsbury School
of Nursing. After a few years as a full-time mum I did various courses
in getting my head around computers and in the mid 1990s I completed a
BA(Hons) degree course in Women's Studies and Social Policy at the
University of Bradford.
Although I enjoyed nursing I often felt that due to the demanding
workload, there wasn't that special time for patients to be listened to
as a whole person rather than the symptoms or the diagnosis of their
illness. Then my own personal challenges in the late 1990s to which my
body responded eventually with a very painful neck, right shoulder and
arm and numb finger for quite some time, guided me to discover the
benefits of complementary therapies, helping me to cope and keep going
even on the darkest and most painful days. Just to have that hour to be
listened to and feel special and respected made such a difference.
Soon after I moved to Redcar in 1999 I went to a Louise Hay "You
Can Heal Your Life" workshop. This was the turning point in my life and
opened the door to beginning my training to be a hypnotherapist. At the
workshop I met two ladies who were completing their hypnotherapy
training who offered me tasters of the lovely relaxing feeling of being
in hypnosis. This inspired me to train as a hypnotherapist with the
Innervisions School of Hypnosis and I qualified in March 2001. Around
the same time I completed the Reiki I and II degrees to become a Reiki
Practitioner. The following year I added Emotional Freedom Technique to
the therapies I offer doing my Practitioner and Advanced Level 3
training with EFT Masters Tam and Mair Llewellyn in Tickhill, South
Yorkshire. In 2006 I added Tapas Acupressure Technique, another energy
therapy, to the range of therapies I use. My aim is to create a warm
and relaxing, professional and confidential environment to help you to
feel listened to, special and respected, to lighten any darkness
enabling you to make positive transformations in your life.
