Lynda Almond Cert. Hyp. CS

I am a qualified hypnotherapist and I also hold further qualifications in counselling. I am a member of The National Hypnotherapy Society.

I began my working life as an Environmental Health Officer, working with people living in poor housing conditions and disabled people. After having children my life took a change in direction and I trained to become a hypnotherapist.

I also volunteer as a befriender with a local Plymouth charity that supports families and carers of children with Autism, Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. I work with parents and carers who are struggling with the stress that their lives have on them and are in need of support through the use of counselling skills.

I also have personal experience of dealing with children with autism and to enable me to work with children I have an enhanced DBS.

My ethos is that you, the client, are central to the hypnotherapy process and after our Initial Consultation, you will be given a bespoke programme that is unique and individual to you, by adopting a Person Centered Approach. For some people there will be the need to look at your past history and resolve those issues before you are able to move forward with your life. And for other people you will only want to work on a solution without going back into the past. Each of these options has its own merits. Key to success with hypnotherapy is that the route that we choose is right for you, and that you are central to the process.
