I’m Helen Gormley, Dip.Hyp. BSc(Hons), MEd, MA(Ed), PGTC, MAC, MCIM, GHR (Reg), GHQP, MNCH (Reg).
I want to motivate all to live fulfilled, enterprising and exciting lives with passion, energy, empathy and a greater curiosity for life and learning.
I have been studying and enjoying psychology for over thirty years, gosh how time flies when you are having fun! It started with 'A’ Level Psychology which gave me a positive insight and it kick started me on a continuing journey of discovery.
I have over twenty years experience in education and industry as a teacher, assessor, verifier, researcher, trainer, project manager, director, coach, hypnotherapist, NLP coach and consultant. I have made a particular speciality of partnership working where diverse groups of professionals are required to function together to provide more cohesive services. All of this has helped me to develop my ‘no story, no obstacle’ maxim as a coach. True collaboration is one of my many passions which enables me to bring my energy and excitement in seeing people connect and make things happen through energy, trust and a common purpose.
I have trained in coaching, psychology, NLP, EFT, Mindfulness and I have also trained, at the UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy, in a model basis on modern psychological approaches to hypnosis and particularly integrates CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) with hypnotherapy in a model called Hypno-CBT. I am also a certified Hypnodieting Consultant.
