JENNY COLIN
Clinical Hypnotherapist (PG Dip, MPA, MA (Oxon), BSCH, BBRS)
My Story
After a successful career in Government as a policy maker and manager, I decided to follow my instincts and lifelong interest in how the mind works (and sometimes works against us!). I retrained as a Clinical Hypnotherapist with the internationally respected London College of Clinical Hypnosis (LCCH) through the University of West London and subsequently with Terence Watts, the creator of Brain Working Recursive Therapy (BWRT®).
As a therapist, I focus on achieving rapid and sustainable results, and strongly believe that most issues can be resolved in a few sessions. At the same time, I enjoy working with some clients over a longer period of time, focusing on a blend of hypnotherapy, BWRT® and coaching to work through more complex issues or challenging life events. Increasingly, I work closely with other health and wellness professionals, including Functional Medics and Nutritionists, to provide more comprehensive therapeutic support that recognises the inter-relationship between mind and body.
I am fully insured, hold an enhanced DBS Certificate and have regular supervision. As a lifelong learner, I am always looking to continue to research advanced techniques and develop practical insights from neuroscience as it evolves. I'm married with two young children and live in Clapham, South West London and I'm a confident, if not fully fluent, French speaker. When I'm not working, all of my free time is spent with family and friends, cooking, walking or in a yoga class!
