Meet Tim 😊

Tim came to see me 3 years ago as a heavy smoker. He really wanted to give up but had tried lots of different ways without success. He was also suffering from some smoking related health issues.
This is Tim now, 3 years on, enjoying feeling healthier, happier and looking forward to his future.

"Hi Paula , Waw , it’s three years today and I’ve not succumbed ( but do get the feeling of wanting one sometimes , but not quite as much or often ) all thanks to you- “you’re wonderful “
I’m so grateful for your help - thank you You're an amazing Lady. As you know I’d tried just about everything else with no success , then I meet you !
You did it for me 🥳👍
I’m truly grateful to you.
Also my dentist said last week that my tongue and mouth looks very healthy now so different from three years ago and so the risks of bad things are a lot less

It's never too late to give up an addiction. With the right help anything is possible.

Would you like to be able to go abroad and enjoy some traveling but can't because you have a fear of flying?

Aerophobia is an extreme fear of flying in an airplane. People with aerophobia may be scared about different aspects of flying, such as take-off, landing or getting locked in the plane. You might know that your fear is irrational — statistics show that air travel is one of the safest modes of travel — but you can’t reason your way out of the anxiety. Another name for this condition is aviophobia

I have helped many clients to overcome their fears of flying by using Hypnotherapy and Neuro-linguistic programming techniques.

Please do get in touch if you would like more information 😊

I'm very happy to announce that I can now offer Walk & Talk Therapy.
Walking Therapy offers unique benefits including boosting your endorphins & other feel good chemicals.
Some people find it easier to open up when walking side-by-side rather than making full eye contact in the therapy room.
If yourself or someone you know might benefit from this type of therapy please get in touch.
I offer a free phone consultation whereby I can explain in more detail & provides you with an opportunity to ask any additional questions
Paula 🙂

Some useful information for my new followers 😊

I'm in my third year of running my own business as a Solution Focused Therapist. Before that I worked in a local Secondary School for 15 years as a PE teacher, Head of Year and then as the Lead Mental Health for both staff and students.

I now work from home 3 days a week in my busy key2calm practice and one day I work as a therapist in a local secondary school. My therapy is very solution focused, aiming at helping my clients achieve their preferred future. I use a combination of hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) and Neuro Linguistic Programming to help rewire any negative neuro pathways. I also offer Walk and Talk therapy.

I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, playing bowls and netball and I'm often involved in some crazy ultra challenge. I have recently joined CrossFit to help improve my physical health and to enjoy the social interactions it brings.

I work with clients from age 8 and above in a range of different conditions including anxiety, addictions, phobias, depression, OCD & PTSD.

By making 1% marginal gains in lots of different aspects of your life can lead to life changing benefits.

It's never too late to make these changes 😊

Happy New Year to my lovely clients, both past and present.
Hope 2025 is a good year in terms of health and happiness
Please find a few of my favourite tips to help with this:
✅ We are what we tell ourselves, so try to reframe negative thoughts and use more positive language
✅ At the end of everyday ask yourself what has been good, what you have achieved and what you are grateful for.
✅ Prioritise sleep
✅ Exercise daily ( just a short walk in the fresh air has massive benefits)
✅ Look at ways to increase your 4Ps (positive interactions, positive actions which means doing more of the things you enjoy, positive thoughts and make sure you always have a purpose in life
✅ Use helpful coping mechanisms (breathing techniques, distractions, grounding techniques)
✅ Apply self-care daily
✅ Intent (determination to stay in control and achieve your goals) Marginal gains in different aspects of your life can have a massive impact

Having worked with many clients over the years, I have had the pleasure of seeing the positive impact the above tips can have, so do give them a go ❤️🤗
