Maria attained an Hons Degree in Psychology and an MSc in Health Psychology and then embarked on a career in research and analysis within the NHS and civil service.
After suffering work-related stress, she discovered the wonders of hypnotherapy which led her to train as a Hypnotherapist in 2010 and became a hypnotherapist. Maria discovered the benefits of mindfulness after a highly traumatic time, when she suffered anxiety and insomnia, and so it was only natural that she trained as a Mindfulness Practitioner.
Maria feels challenges in life are inevitable, yet we can learn from them and grow stronger. She seeks to help her clients realise their strengths and resources, to face their fears, visualise their goals and keep moving towards them.
Maria combines Hypnotherapy, NLP, CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, EFT and mindfulness in her individual sessions, as well as providing group mindfulness meditation sessions and corporate well-being training.
