Dragonfly Clinical Hypnotherapy

I’m really looking forward to supporting a special menopause event on 16th May 💗

This is a topic that’s incredibly important to me, not just professionally, but personally too (I know! I don't look old enough) . So many women are navigating menopause feeling unheard, overwhelmed, and like they’ve lost themselves, or even worse, like they’re simply existing… and it doesn’t have to be that way.

I’m excited to be sharing how hypnotherapy and acupuncture can gently support you through this transition, rooted in science and delivered with heart. There’s growing evidence showing how these approaches can help regulate the nervous system, improve sleep, reduce anxiety, and support symptoms like hot flushes and emotional imbalance.

Menopause doesn't have to be an ending, it’s a powerful shift, and with the right support, it can be a time of real transformation 🌿

If you’re coming along, I can’t wait to meet you. And if you’re curious, feel free to reach out, I’m always happy to chat.

Still telling yourself you’ll quit “soon”?
Soon becomes next month.
Next month becomes next year.
Smoking cessation doesn’t have to mean:
❌ Cravings you can’t handle
❌ Mood swings
❌ Fear of failure
With Hypnotherapy, we calm the nervous system, reduce cravings, and reset the pattern at a subconscious level.
One decision can change your health, your energy, your bank account and your future.

Hypnotherapy works at the subconscious level, where habits, beliefs and patterns live. When you change your inner dialogue, your outer world naturally follows.
Ready to change from the inside out?

Any one else feeling the subtle shifts in mood with the changes of season?

Got absolutely soaked walking the dogs this morning, proper sideways rain, the kind that laughs at your waterproofs! and it meant a 10 minute blowdry, I hadn't scheduled into my morning! (it's tough being a curly girl!)

It could have been easy to spiral and let it shape my day but, instead of letting it dampen my mood, I threw on some neon and a bit of lippy to remind myself that colour can shift everything and how we think is a choice💄💚

The changing seasons can really play havoc with how we feel, shorter days, darker mornings & less sunshine. So if you’ve been feeling a bit ‘off’, you’re not alone. Be kind to yourself, take notice of the small wins, and focus on what’s been good today, even if it’s just a hot cuppa, a wagging tail, or five quiet minutes to breathe. 🌈✨

Sometimes you just need to shut up!!!

For years in nursing, I’ve sat quietly with people in the rawest moments of grief, trauma, and uncertainty. What I’ve learned is this: sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is simply listen.

As humans, we often feel the need to say something, to offer advice, or to fix things. Sometimes we like to share our own experience to try and relate, But true support, Whether in healthcare, leadership or business isn’t always about having the right words, it’s about holding space & being fully present.

In my new role as Aftercare Manager with with the Air Ambulance, I carry that same belief with me, that listening isn’t passive. It’s active. It’s compassionate. , It’s creating a safe space where someone feels seen, heard, and not alone in their pain and confusion

The photo says “shhh,” but in reality it means: I’m here, I’m present, I’m hearing you.

Sometimes it's knowing that any words I have is not going to change an outcome.

Because healing doesn’t always begin with words it doesn't even come from being listened to, it comes from feeling heard.

Hypnotherapy isn’t really about what you want to stop… it’s about what you want to start living for.

Most people don’t book hypnotherapy because they want to “quit” something.
They book it because they want the life that comes after.

People don’t have hypnotherapy to lose weight.
They want to feel confident in their skin, buy clothes they love, feel healthier, and have the energy to be around for their kids.

People don’t have hypnotherapy just to stop smoking.
They want to breathe easier, stop worrying about the smell, save money, and live longer.

People don’t have hypnotherapy simply to stop procrastinating.
They want to achieve more, feel like they’re pulling their weight, and finally get things done.

People don’t have hypnotherapy just to stop drinking.
They want more energy, less anxiety, freedom from shame, and a longer, healthier life.

People don’t have hypnotherapy just to stop anxiety.
They want to feel “normal,” to live fully, to stop missing out on the moments that matter.

Hypnotherapy is about small steps that lead to big changes. It’s about helping you move closer to the version of yourself you want to be.

The question is, What is it you actually want?

Well, What a week....! 🚁 🚁 🚁

I’m delighted to share that I’ve survived my first week working with the &NottsAir Ambulance team as their Aftercare Service Manager!

Everyone has been so friendly, helpful, and welcoming, I already feel right at home. I know I made the right decision when I accepted this role💛

I’m able to combine my background in psychotherapy with over 20 years of nursing experience (particularly in ITU) to support the charity’s five-year growth plan. Our goal is to provide gold standard aftercare not only for patients who have faced trauma and life-threatening events, but also for their families, bystanders, partner services, and of course, our incredible clinical team.

I feel genuinely honoured to be part of such an inspiring organisation

On a side note, a few people have messaged me about Hypnotherapy. Yes, I am still offering sessions!
Appointments are now limited to evenings and Saturday mornings. Initial consultations remain free, and I still have a few spaces available for October.

If you’d like support to get your life back on track or simply feel more like yourself, drop me a message.

If you would like to donate, to the & Notts Air Ambulance Charity or if you would like to talk through any incidents you witnessed or were involved in, Drop me a message.

If seeing Charlie Kirk’s face or hearing his name triggers you, whether because of what happened or because you disagreed with him I’d invite you to pause and reflect. Are we reacting to the person, or to what our news feed and others want us to feel?

I’ve been reflecting alot recently on how easy it is for us to slip into hatred. Left, right, far left, far right, we draw these lines, yet we are all human.

I’ve noticed some of Charlie Kirk’s words being shared without full context sometimes to incite outrage, sometimes for clicks or personal agenda, But reducing anyone to fragments of what they said or did strips away the truth of who they were.

Charlie wasn’t just a political figure. He was a husband, a dad, a son, a friend. Whatever you thought of his beliefs, he stood up for what he believed in. That’s something we can at least acknowledge.

Hate is easy. Humanity is harder.
