I have been practicing hypnosis since 1982 and have used it mainly in my work as a general practitioner in Scotland but also have a private practice. Being a generalist means that I see everyone of all ages and the way I use hypnosis is inclusive and has become part of my everyday professional practice. I am involved in training and also in the development of the basic course that we teach in BSMDH. I am a master practitioner in NLP and completed training over 3 years. I am trained in TFT and autogenics. My goal is to help people regain control in their lives and over their illnesses. To help them realise their inner power and strength. I developed my hypnosis skills to suit the situations I mainly see patients in and use a lot of short interventions. I had several years’ experience working with athletes to improve their physical and mental performance. I’ve been fortunate enough to deliver workshops in many countries throughout Europe. I have been a journalist, medical director as well as a TV doctor in my past life. If you are in a situation where you feel powerless hypnosis can and does offer the possibility of respite whether that be from pain, fear, illness, trauma, persecution and many more human situations. The evidence is there to support this and I see it as my mission to make as many people aware of this as possible.
