About Pauline

Pauline has gained knowledge and experience in many different fields.  She studied at Worcester College of Further Education, taking qualifications in Business Studies, Psychology and Sociology. 

This  fuelled a deep seated interest in people and how their lives can be negatively affected by their experiences.  She recognised a strong desire within herself to help people overcome their difficulties.

As a practitioner of Counselling and Hypnotherapy, Pauline has been able to achieve this objective, and resolve very deep seated problems for a great many people, enabling them to go on to enjoy happier and more fulfilling lives.

Counselling
Pauline trained as a counsellor at Worcester College of Further Education.  Her training has been primarily in Integrative Counselling, which incorporates aspects of Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT),  Psychodynamic Therapy and Gestalt. 

Her practice is adapted to meet the needs of each individual client and the issues they would like to work with.  This is all built on a firm foundation of respect for the individual.

Alongside her academic training, Pauline gained practical experience and specialist training with both Cruse Bereavement Care, and the Worcestershire Rape & Sexual Abuse Support Centre, working as a volunteer before going into private practice in 2002.  Pauline receives professional supervision on a regular basis.

Hypnotherapy
Over a three year period Pauline trained as a hypnotherapist with the London College of Clinical Hypnosis at the University of Central England in Birmingham.  She has been in private practice since
2004,  treating patients with a wide variety of problems and achieving an extremely high success rate.

Many clients have written to Pauline thanking her for helping them to make the changes they wanted, and improving their lives significantly (see ‘Testimonials’)

Pauline has continued her professional development by training in Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), and EMDR, all of which are valuable tools that are used within Pauline's therapy.  She has also studied Anger Management, Migraine Resolution, and Alleviating Depression.
