Hi, I'm Debby, and whilst searching for answers to things like “why do I hate myself so much?”, "why am I so depressed?", “what’s the point to my life?” and “will I ever feel happy again?”, a book ended up in my hands, thanks to my philandering boyfriend (yes, it’s along story!). Anyway, the book was about Hypnotherapy and it was then that I started to grasp that the source of my suffering was actually within my mind and therefore, my control - and I started to look for answers.

That was back in 1994, and over the next few years I had a few ‘rounds’ of Hypnotherapy as a client, and read a few 'self-help' books.  Whilst things felt a little better, the biggest shift in my thinking happened over dinner one night in 1997. That conversation pushed me forward in leaps and bounds, and I went on to to train as a Therapeutic Hypnotherapist, Stress Management Consultant, Indian Head Masseur and Reiki Healer over the next couple of years. After that, I trained as a Life Coach, Sound Healer, Reiki Master and Sekhem Healer, and also studied NLP, Enneagram Personality Profiling, Journey Therapy, The Work of Byron Katie and The Sedona Method – I’ve been a busy lady!

And so, my background is quite varied! With 17 years in business, I started off in Insurance in 1989 , and then moved on to work for a Youth Training Centre, after which I temped on and off for a good few years covering a wide range of indurstries such as Law, IT, Manufacturing, Media, Sales, and Marketing and I also worked part-time as a bar maid and as an Ann Summer Rep (yes, really!) and I did lots of travelling in between!  In 1997 I moved on to to work in IT Resource Management, and stayed in the industry in one form or another (eventually ending up as a Database Designer) through to 2004, when I left my permanent job to pursue my real passion – helping people to get out of their own way!

Over the last 14 years, I have healed from depression, SAD, Asthma, chronic menstural problems, IBS and Candida Albacans, all through natural methods including mind power and nutrition (yes, I was quite a wreck really!)  In addition to all the 'health' challenges, I have also gotten to grips with my lack of self-esteem and have become a happy and confident women who feels at ease with herself - a far cry from the angry, sick and frustrated girl of my youth!!  And so I have great faith and belief in the methods that I use as I've experienced the first hand benefits! 

Nowadays, I feel very privileged to be able to do what I do, as I know it makes a difference to peoples lives!
