While I have first-hand experience of workplace stress, I also understand the pain and distress caused by childhood trauma. With a childhood characterised by bullying, I am no stranger to the debilitating fear of confrontation, intimidation and abuse.

My personal journey to achieving greater self-confidence, self-respect and self-love led me to hypnosis and its potential to ignite a powerful internal healing process. After undergoing several hypnosis sessions myself, I signed up for an intense hypnosis programme under Dr John Souglides, a renowned practitioner in South Africa and abroad. Today, I am a registered practitioner with the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association.
On completing the programme, I established Inner Reach Hypnotherapy with a view to focusing specifically on women and children battling with self-esteem issues as a result of abuse and bullying. My aim: to assist them in harnessing the power of their subconscious minds to overcome adversity and get rid of self-limiting beliefs. Today,
however, I welcome everyone – men, women and children – as men, too, are subject to the same stressors as everyone else. The sub-conscious mind plays a powerful role in informing everything people do. I feel passionate about helping people align their conscious and sub-conscious minds with the same messages. By doing so, they can change the way they react to people and situations that make them feel unhappy, uncomfortable or incapacitated. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. The hypnotherapist is merely a facilitator of the hypnosis process, which means the patient’s desire to change must be sincere and come from within.

I believe my own experiences have made me a compassionate and empathetic listener and hypnotist. I enjoy working one-on-one with people and take pride in helping them make a difference in their lives, whether they want to feel better about themselves, lose weight, stop smoking or get out of toxic relationships. Inner Reach is an outward expression of my own transformation and wish to be a change-agent in a world where people find themselves in situations that can often be isolating (even more so since the advent of the coronavirus pandemic), disheartening and downright toxic. Most importantly, I strive to help people bring their best selves out.
