Change Starts Here!

Clinical Hypnotherapist, Personal Development Coach, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Master Practitioner, Laughter Yoga Leader and Qualified Trainer.

Working with clients to help them get where they want to be in life, I feel privileged to be able to use my skills and experience to help transform peoples’ lives.  I am qualified in a wide range of hypnotherapy practices, which I utilise in guiding clients to use the power of their mind to achieve the change they desire, whilst they remain in complete control.

Specialising in Clinical Hypnotherapy, I am passionate about working with people who have long term health conditions.  I enjoy helping them to get the most out of life, despite their diagnosis.

I support people to achieve their goals through using a range of therapeutic techniques, creating a package of support that’s completely tailored to meet a client’s individual needs.  That package could contain a unique blend of hypnotherapy, NLP, mindfulness, laughter yoga or a combination of them all.  Of utmost importance to me, is putting you at the centre of everything that I do.

All of the therapies that I practice are gentle and supportive.  I teach and empower clients to use the techniques for themselves.  And, what often surprises clients, is that much of what I do can be done “content free”.  In other words, I’m interested in how you are processing memories, which means that you don’t necessarily have to tell me what those memories are.  Although, if you do want to tell me, that’s OK too.  As a member of a range of professional bodies, I’m bound by a code of ethics which ensures that whatever you tell me is kept confidential (unless you tell me that you’re planning on breaking the law!).

When engaging a therapist, its important to work with someone you feel relaxed with but who is also willing to challenge your thinking (if necessary!).  There has to be a good level of rapport.  To make sure that I’m the right therapist for you and that you’re the right client for me, I offer all potential clients a 30 minute, free, no obligation telephone consultation.  This gives you the opportunity to ask questions about how I work, what’s involved, and what you can expect.  It also allows me to confirm that I’m the best therapist to work with you to achieve the outcome you had in mind.  The consultation can be booked by phone or via the website.  So what are you waiting for?  I’m eager to meet you!

Charles grew up in the Lake District which probably explains his love of wilderness and wide open spaces. Graduating from Umist with a Ph. D., the next 30 or so years were spent in manufacturing in a variety of locations in leadership roles. Over those years he was the architect of many successes delivering key points of differentiation for the business. In parallel to this he became interested in complimentary approaches to health and eventually in parallel with his regular job in 2004 he started training in clinical hypnotherapy. In 2008 he started training with Barbara Brennan, graduating in 2012 and in parallel to this he spent 3 years training to become a shamanic practitioner.

Following his years in business he set up his own practice as a personal change agent deploying the skills he continues to learn and integrate into his “coaching” practice. He believes deeply that people can achieve for more than they normally expect and that we can tap into this potential, often unrecognised, with appropriate guidance.

He has a busy practice facilitating change for individuals often with a business background who are looking to live a fuller life.

“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.”
~ Aristotle

Philosopher, Aristotle, expresses in his quote much of how I think and work both personally and therapeutically.

I help diverse clients with a wide range of challenges and goals, with a particular focus on people transitioning to a new stage in their lives or seeking to overcome their fears and anxieties, self-doubt and/or depression and emerge from therapy ready to tap their limitless potential.

Working as a team, I seek to assist you to confront obstacles to change, to increase relationship skills, to increase your confidence in decision-making and the maintenance of lasting solutions. My work is characterized by intuition, compassion, optimism and collaboration. I encourage bringing into the room all of your thoughts, feelings, perceptions and experiences—both past and present.

You may have heard the famous maxim, “the truth will set you free.” I truly believe this… for once we see the truth about ourselves on a deep level, all judgment and confusion evaporate; our path is clearer and even though we have some work to do, it feels joyful and we know where we are going.

My name is Karen Shaw, and I live and work in Plymouth, Devon.  As an experienced Hypnotherapist I have thoroughly enjoyed working with older clients, helping them amongst other things to overcome anxiety, fears and worries about ageing, manage lifestyle changes, as well as helping with pain and palliative care.  Consequently training and qualifying as a practitioner of the Ageing Unplugged® programme has been a natural progression for me, and I look forward to being able to help people achieve their full potential and make the most of their later years.

Having a background in Hypnotherapy is a great advantage, as it means I am experienced in encouraging people to identify their own strengths and resources, and to utilise them to solve problems, alleviate fears, and make the most of life.  Also clients can decide whether or not to have Hypnotherapy, Ageing Unplugged® or a combination of both.

I became interested in psychology while training to become a teacher, and have made a lifelong study of it for both personal and professional interest.  Since leaving the teaching profession I have had various roles in business, and finally made the break to work with my major interest in 2016 when I completed Hypnotherapy training.  In my spare time I enjoy walking, particularly on Dartmoor, along the coast and in the many wonderful woodlands we have in the UK.
