About Me

BARBARA HAY

With over 17 years of experience in psychotherapy, I am passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges and rediscover their inner strength. My work is grounded in a compassionate, client-centered approach, drawing on a rich toolkit of therapeutic methods to tailor each session to your unique needs.

I began my journey in Counselling, building a strong foundation in active listening and emotional support. Over the years, I have expanded my practice to include Cognitive Hypnotherapy, AMDR (Applied Memory Desensitisation and Reprocessing), EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Matrix Reimprinting, and BWRT® (BrainWorking Recursive Therapy). This integrated approach allows me to work flexibly and effectively with a wide range of emotional, psychological, and behavioural issues.

Whether you're seeking support with anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, or simply feeling stuck, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space to explore what's holding you back and move towards lasting change.

I invite you to explore how we might work together on your path to healing and personal growth.

Let me help you live a happier life

"The truly exciting thing about BWRT is that it works directly in that 'cognitive gap' before conscious awareness. So where more standard therapies will be seeking to access the anxiety-triggering amygdala via conscious processes, BWRT works from the other end of the scale – in the very early brain before the amygdala has even received the message!"  

I am a member of the Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) who promotes the highest professional standards in its members. Because of this, you can be certain that I happily adhere to their strict code of ethics and conduct. I have been awarded the NCH Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD) which is the first nationally accredited hypnotherapy qualification awarded by the NCFE National Awarding Body.

I am fully insured, as are all members of the CNHC, and am totally committed to undertake continuous professional development (CPD) so that you can be assured that I have access to the most up to date techniques available. I am fully trained in Safeguarding Adults and Children and hold an up to date DBS certificate.

You will find me friendly and approachable. I will not judge you nor 'diagnose' you. I will listen to you, I will empathise with your situation. I will work with you to find your perfect solution state. I will not label you or your problem, you already know what the problem is and you already know what the solution is; I will help you find it. I will help you to make the changes in you so you can live your life differently. Give me a call on 07786314901 for a friendly informal chat.
