Meet Laura

Executive Coach and Hypnotherapist

I spent much of my life becoming who everyone else needed me to be, outwardly accomplished but inwardly disconnected. As a senior military officer, and later an executive coach in leadership development, I dedicated myself to helping others thrive. I was very good at it. But beneath the surface, I carried quiet exhaustion, uncertainty, overthinking, and habits I couldn’t seem to change, no matter how self-aware I became. 

​

A few years ago, I chose to stop performing and start becoming the person I truly am. That decision transformed not just my life, but how I support others through change. Through my own experience of hypnotherapy and coaching I found that my own limiting beliefs and unwanted behaviours, habits and thoughts that had dogged me for years, literally vanished overnight. This did not just help my, but benefited those around me.

​

Now I bring that same combination of coaching and hypnotherapy to others who feel stuck, stressed, or held back by habits and thoughts that no longer serve them. Whether it’s anxiety, low confidence, difficulty switching off, or breaking old behaviours, we work together to change what’s happening beneath the surface so everyday life starts to feel easier again.

​

Real change doesn’t have to take years of analysis or willpower. Sometimes it’s about giving the mind the right conditions to reset, and that’s what this work is all about.

Calm Sea
Becoming

When I feel down, I can occassionally, just occassionally sit with the sadness and pain of my thoughts. But it is hard and so often I fall short, I distract, I hide. Those days are hard. full of sadness and fear. But on the days I have managed to sit with myself, the pain passes and clears, like the sun rising on a sea after the storm. The waves still hold the last of the  chaotic energy, but with a rhythm that gently absorbs, and the swell slowly, almost imperceptibly receeds, leaving calm. The storm absorbed back from where it came. The light on those mornings feels especially bright.
