About me

Human Givens Trainee Practitioner | Executive Coach | Clinical Hypnotherapist

Hello, I’m Joanna — a Human Givens trainee practitioner offering compassionate, practical, and evidence-based support to help people move past stress, anxiety, and overwhelm and rediscover balance and confidence in their lives.

My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and solution-focused. I draw on the Human Givens framework, which integrates the latest insights from neuroscience and psychology with proven therapeutic techniques. Every session is tailored to your individual needs, helping you quickly reduce emotional distress, regain perspective, and build lasting emotional resilience.

Before training in Human Givens therapy, I spent over 25 years in senior leadership roles across media, communications, and digital strategy. I understand first-hand the pressures of demanding careers, change, and life transitions — and how easily we can lose touch with our own wellbeing when supporting others. That experience informs my work today: practical, empathetic, and focused on helping people get back to feeling calm, capable, and in control.

In addition to my Human Givens training, I am a qualified Executive Coach (2023) and hold Clinical Hypnotherapy certification, which enables me to integrate relaxation, guided imagery, and mindset tools to support rapid, sustainable change.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, anxious, exhausted, or simply ready to make a positive shift, I can help you reconnect with your inner resources and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Sessions are free of charge during my supervised practice period and available online or in-person (West London).

Let’s work together to help you feel more balanced, focused, and fulfilled.
