Cornwall & Devon Stop Smoking Support Services

27/08/2024

Please note as a reminder, that I have just updated the pinned posts on my three archived business pages.
These are :-

👉 Trevor Wales Hypnotherapy Solutions.

👉 Cornwall BWRT Psychotherapy

👉 Cornwall and Devon Stop Smoking Services.

I archived all of these pages last year in the light of not having sufficient time to manage them as I became busier with clients and the fact that Facebook didn't seem to be working in the way that it used to.

This page Trevor R Wales is a mix of public mental and physical health and wellness posts and private posts shared for friends.
Thank you.

August 6, 2024.

A new blog I have written for the APHP today aimed at both new therapists or those who are thinking of moving away from their current professional provider..

New Hypnotherapist or Psychotherapist?
Why Join the APHP if you are a Hypnotherapist or Psychotherapist? Sound reasons to become a member.

As I have been involved in the field of talking therapies for almost twenty years now, from time to time I get asked by newcomers to our profession, what professional body should I become a member of.

When I first received my diploma eighteen years ago, I joined the society that was recommended to me.
In 2006 cost of living expenses it was a noticeable d**k in my monthly finances and over the year it was expensive.

I paid my dues but by month eleven I was asking myself if the professional body I had joined was actually doing anything for me.

I had not received a single enquiry despite being listed in their therapist directory, and it wasn’t as if I was one amongst many therapists. In fact I ought to have stood a good chance because I was one of around ten listed therapists covering Kent.

There was no CPD to speak of and no real benefits worthy of the fees I was paying and so I changed to what is widely acknowledged to be the biggest professional register of hypnotherapy practitioners serving the UK. I stayed with them until about two years ago.

During that time, apart from being designated an approved supervisor and senior practitioner, you hardly heard from them, that was anything other than the usual same monthly newsletter telling members where they could access paid cpd.

In eleven years I did not receive a single enquiry as a result of paying to be on the therapists register. By then I was highly disappointed and disgruntled and I started wondering why bother paying to belong to a professional body at all that seemed to offer little or nothing at all for professional support. All that seemed to be of any value at all was the few downloadable logos that I could put on my website and social media posts.

A number of my professional colleagues felt the same way and openly said why bother, they all seem to be the same and I thought so too … Until….

I received an email from Georgina McKinnon and Emma Evans who were not only good friends but my supervisors and co-owners of TranceFormers Training who I had done some CPD via also.

The email I received in 2020 explained that Georgina & Emma had taken over the running of the APHP from Terence Watts who had originally set it up in 1999. Emma and Georgina understood only too well the frustrations that many other therapists felt and outlined their vision for the APHP which they have certainly delivered on over the last four years.

For the very reasonable annual subscription fee you pay, you receive as a member an amazing package for the money. Just last year alone, I attended twelve free CPD training events free of charge!

Last year and this year I benefited from the very generous professional liability insurance that Emma and Georgina negotiated with one of the countries leading indemnity insurers of therapists.
I benefited from the same like for like cover as my previous insurance company, but, I saved myself over £200.00 per annum.

On top of that, there is a members website which is completely free at the point of delivery where you can create your own personal profile about the services you deliver.

When you join the APHP you get world wide representation and there are numerous generous discounts on certain packages, for example if you qualify for membership of the NRPC, the National Register of Psychotherapists and Counsellors and guaranteed fast track registration to the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC)
The APHP are an official verification authority.

Additionally there is a great blog facility where you can contribute articles that are available for the public.

The APHP website is very well presented and is very easy to navigate and very professional.

The team at the APHP are totally enthusiastic and very, very supportive.

Last summer in 2023 the APHP held an online conference which was a very reasonable fee to attend and which was a weekend event with several highly respected figures in the therapy world as keynote speakers.

For me personally I am more than happy to be an ambassador for the APHP simply because of the fantastic professional support and extraordinary value for money that membership bestows.

So Facebook has removed my pinned post that I put a lot of time in putting it together that tells people about what I do. This is the last straw.. There is no point at all being on Facebook at all if they are going to remove essential information posts.

I have appealed and depending upon the outcome of the appeal I will either remain a Facebook member or I will leave and close my account.

I like so many people are totally fed up with the way Facebook prevent good honest people going about trying to do some good with helping people in this world.
I will give them seven days to respond.

Just a reminder for new visitors to my page who are considering my therapy services, all new appointments for my therapy services which are, Hypnotherapy, BWRT, EFT and Sanomentology are now all online giving you much greater flexibility.

Ideal for people who have travelling difficulties. No getting stuck in traffic jams. No difficulties with parking. Very much more relaxed. What could be easier than having therapy in your own private space.

My clients who use online love it.
I have worked with clients online since establishing my practice in 2011 and it has been equally as successful working face to face.
Most people do have access to a good internet signal and tablet or phone, a pair of headphones or a Bluetooth speaker, and that is all that is needed.

The therapies I work with are content free and a core of client privacy is at the centre of how I work.

⭐Confidentiality and discretion assured.

⭐Empathic and client centered therapy assured.

⭐I am DBS checked to work with minors.

⭐ MIBWRT, SANO, CNHC and APHP registered

👉 Updated September 5th 2024.

👉 Dear visitor, thank you for landing upon my page for quitting smoking or va**ng. This page is exclusively devoted to those clients who are seriously committed to continuing to damage their health through continued engagement with to***co products.

👉 I help clients to stop by the intervention of hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy.

Please kindly note that this page is now archived but does contain important information about what I do and how to connect with me, so please do read on.
Thank you.

👉 If you wish to follow me on my private page,there are public posts which you can see. Look for Trevor R Wales on Facebook. Many of my posts are public and exclusively about mental and physical health and wellness.

👉 It may be useful for you to know that I have had GPs endorse my services who have signposted some of there patients to my services.

👉 Important notice
If you have a pressing problem that you urgently need help with, you should call me on my mobile which is 07740 190261.

👉 If for any reason your enquiry leads me to believe that you are at risk of self harm, please know that I have an ethical duty of care as regards safeguarding. My clients safety is my primary concern under my ethical duty of care.

👉 If you are looking for help with the issue, of quilting smoking or va**ng I am happy to help. I offer a free introductory no obligation chat. As a former smoker from 1967 to 1999, I do really understand the challenges of stopping smoking having been a sixty a day smoker at one time and having tried "giving up" and failed numerous times, to going cold turkey and stopping completely on one day in 1999.

👉Would you like to talk to me about that?

👉 You might be surprised to know that it's all in the mind and about self talk

👉 I have two decades experience of helping people to make changes to their mindset through the agency of hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy.

👉 Many of my clients have gone on to leave me very positive five star testimonials for the quality of my services overall and more importantly about how they feel personally after using my therapy services.

👉 I am now almost exclusively working with clients globally online and I plan to give up my office with the intention of semi retiring, working two days a week, and therefore will be offering my services on a reduced scale, so my unique help will still be available on a limited scale , but until then I am still active full time and my services could most likely help you.

👉Online therapy is very effective and has been a primary way of working for me since opening my therapy practice in 2011.

👉 Whilst I still have my office, I may see clients face to face if there is a specific need to do so. All of the therapies I work with are well suited for online work with the one exception of hypnoanalysis.

👉 If I do accept you for a face to face appointment please be aware that I have full PPE in place as of September 2024 and that you will need to wear a face covering and partake in a COVID risk exercise questionnaire for face to face appointments to take place.

👉 Covid is unfortunately still active in the country at this time and recently in August this year an 8.9% increase in COVID cases was reported in Cornwall with a sharp spike in the St Ives area.

👉 My appointments slots are held typically for Fridays and Saturdays with Tuesdays to Thursday being reserved for enquiries, consultations, trading and admin.

👉 I am active in the following areas of Therapy as a full time Hypnotherapy, BrainWorking Recursive Therapy practitioner for level 1 and Level 2 advanced work. I am also a Warriors Settlers and Nomads Counsellor. A SymbioDynamics ™ Success coach and Sanomentology practitioner and trainer.

👉 I have over 55 five star reviews for quality , effectiveness and service on several platforms and more positive testimonials on my website.

👉 In August last year I made changes that affected my three business pages.
As of the 23rd of August 2023 I ceased to use Facebook business pages to promote my services. However, you can find and follow me on my personal Trevor R Wales page.

I stopped actively using Facebook business pages due to the fact that Facebook's policies have made it increasingly difficult to make the voices of small scale complementary therapists to be heard without pouring substantial capital into regular advertising.

After over thirteen years of actively posting and promoting my services on my Facebook business pages I decided to stop as it was evident that my posts like many other small businesses that cannot afford an advertising budget were being severely restricted in circulation. Only a small handful of people were seeing them.

👉 There are other ways to engage with me and my door is always open for help.

👉 I will be delighted to take your enquiry and you can talk to me on 07740 190261.

Good morning
I now have a listing in the find a therapist section on the Association for professional Hypnosis & Psychotherapy.
The APHP website also has a very useful 'Guide To Therapy' section for prospective clients looking for therapy.

In addition there are useful blogs about the benefits to mental and physical health related to the work of our practitioners with clients.

Our health and wellbeing starts in our minds and it follows therefore that our minds are our greatest resources. The process of the modalities that our practitioners engage in helps to enhance the mind through focussed intention and application.

I regularly post about the risks of va**ng and I have dear friends who v**e in transition from smoking in the belief that this will help them come off of ni****ne dependency sooner.
Unfortunately people believe what they want to believe and the fact is that ni****ne is addictive and there are serious health consequences from the ingestion of ni****ne.
Ni****ne is a toxic substance. It raises your blood pressure and spikes your adrenaline, which increases your heart rate and the likelihood of having a heart attack.
People only quit when they are ready and some leave it too late when they discover that they are diagnosed with a life threatening smoking or va**ng disease.
Please don't leave it too late.
Get your health under control while you can.
I quit in 1999 from a sixty a day habit.
There is nothing special about me, but I did it.
I can tell you about my journey from habitual smoker to non smoker and all the failures in between at quilting smoking.
I believe that va**ng actually poses greater health risk than smoking.
The fact is that both are deadly!

Call me on 07740 190261 or 01726 816947 to discuss your journey to becoming ni****ne free.
