Hello 👋
I’m Melanie, therapist at Rise Solution Focused Hypnotherapy 🌞and I specialise in working with children and teenagers struggling with the effects of anxiety, stress, anger, low mood and low confidence.
I use solution-focused approaches that actively encourage children to:
🌞Re-focus on the positive aspects of their lives
🌞Recognise strengths and capabilities
🌞Improve quality of sleep
🌞Engage more in positive activities/interactions
🌞Feel more in control of their emotions and lives
Areas I work with include:
🧡 Anxiety
🧡 Stress
🧡 Low mood
🧡 Anger management
🧡 Social anxiety
🧡 EBSA
🧡 Low self-esteem
🧡 Low confidence
🧡 Sports/exam performance
🧡 Fears and phobias
🧡 Exam stress and anxiety
🧡 Transition to secondary school/college
🧡 Trauma
🧡 Self-harm
🧡 Sleep problems
🌞About Me 🌞
⭐️ Before training in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy, I spent over 25years as a primary school headteacher and teacher.
⭐️ I became increasingly aware how the support for the whole child and their emotional health was become more limited within the education system. I felt like I wasn’t able to give these young people enough of the dedicated support and time that they needed and deserved to support their well-being and mental health.
⭐️ Being a solution focused hypnotherapist now allows me to dedicate more quality one to one time to support young people with their well-being.
🌞Next Steps 🌞
🌞I offer a free, 1 hour, Initial Consultation to meet your child, find out more and discuss best hopes.
🌞During this, I’ll also help you and your child understand how their brain works to create their particular struggles (in an age-appropriate way).
🌞This understanding can be really helpful to children as they can see more clearly what we can do about it and how to develop more positive, healthy habits for life.
Please get in touch if you'd like to have a call or book an Initial Consultation.
