My Vision and Philosophy
Written in honour of French poet philosopher, Guillaume Apollinaire, for me this poem sums up beautifully how a little helping hand can overcome limiting, negative beliefs. We are in many ways the prisoners of our thinking mind, our conscious mind that judges, makes decisions and keeps us stuck in our comfort zone or in those funny, familiar, unforgotten fears, unable to fly.
As a therapist and a friend, I would like to assist as many as I possibly can to fly to freedom, welcoming liberating freedom and claim our birthright of light, love, laughter, joy and happiness.
Although trained as a psychotherapist who was completely ignorant of hypnosis, I now fully embrace hypnotherapy and what it offers with a passion. Tapping into our mind’s power is immeasurably effective in helping us overcome emotional issues and finding the strength to accept and even welcome change. With change comes new learning and growth.
My job, if it is done well, is to put myself out of business. My work as a therapist is to teach and assist clients in removing their blocks. In doing so, they are empowered to use their inner resources and take responsibility for themselves. Therapy is not about the therapist, it is about the clients learning to do it for themselves.
In a way I hope to be a healing, empowering force that uplifts and inspires others to put fun, laughter and love back into their lives especially the love of self, treating ourselves as our own best friend instead of our harshest critic. 
Rather than worry about the dark I hope to be the candle that lights up and shows the way, as well as spreading warmth, humour and playfulness into humanity’s soul, remembering we are a trinity of mind, body and spirit.
I know I cannot change the state the world is in today, but if I do my bit, this may have a lasting influence in the little community where l live, play and work in. Like a stone that causes a ripple, may the ripple of laughter and happiness continue to extend outwards touching the lives around us. I would like to be that pebble that causes the ripples that causes the waves that changes the world.
Thank you for helping me in so many ways, to be closer to what is comfortable and real.
If we all give but a small bit of ourselves to each other, I can only imagine the wonderful state of the world.
Thank you so much for all you’ve done for me and making a real difference in our community.
Having met and spent some quality time with Adeline, only just over the last few days, I can only say that she’s touched my heart. Her warmth and knowing is to her credit, clearly having spent much time learning and developing into what she now is: A lady who radiates kindness and empathy.
What she has written above represents very closely my own findings on the wealth of material I too have read and absorbed over time. She truly has ‘got it’.
I’d like to think she’s a friend for life
