About

Hi, I'm Wendy

A clinical hypnotherapist, Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT) practitioner and Rapid Tapping ® PRO with 20 years of Director-level Human Resources experience, plus over a decade of working with the NSPCC and Childline.  This unique combination gives me a deep understanding of people, behaviour and change - delivered with a warm, practical approach that meets you where you are. No judgement. No jargon. Just practical tools, genuine support and a focus on helping you move forward.

Wendy, clinical hypnotherapist at Shine Hypnotherapy

My belief

Everyone has the ability to feel calmer, steadier and more themselves

You don't have to stay stuck. Change is possible. Whatever you are going through you don't have to figure it out on your own. My role is to help you unlock your potential — not to tell you what to do. Sessions are relaxed and conversational, you stay in control throughout, and we work together in small, achievable steps towards positive change.
