Lucy Atkinson
Hypnotherapist in Hope Valley

I help women in their 40s and 50s who are going through the perimenopuase or menopause to successfully manage their symptoms through hypnotherapy and coaching, so they feel in control and empowered not disillusioned by this time of life.

I also support people with a range of issues and difficulties to feel better and overcome problems to feel more balance and in control, so they enjoy life more.

Background & Hypnotherapy Qualifications

For many years I was a teacher working with children and families with Special Educational Needs. During this time I gained a huge amount of experience of children with all sorts of needs, particularly Autistic Spectrum Disorders and Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties. I found that teaching children techniques and strategies to help them stay calm in difficult situations could make a significant difference to their confidence, self-esteem and subsequently their behaviour. I trained as a Hypnotherapist and Life Coach in order to use these skills further, to help children, families and adults cope better and learn to achieve their full potential.

I was also a member of the British Competition Climbing Team for a number of years and experienced first-hand how important mental preparation is alongside the physical aspects.

Qualifications: BSc (Hons), PGCE, PGDip, DipHPsych, Cert.SM.

Approach to Hypnotherapy & How I Work

I work with a very forward looking, solution-focussed approach. We discuss what your issues are and what you hope to gain from the sessions, so that we are working towards specific goals that will improve your life in the way you want to. I use a combination of hypnotherapy and NLP techniques to help you to make those changes you want to make.
