Experienced practitioner working at clinics in Yorkshire and via Skype

Clinical Hypnotherapist, Advanced BWRT Practitioner and Master Coach

I have experience working with clients of all ages and backgrounds and offer a safe, confidential place from which you can explore any issues you wish to work on. You are welcome to speak with me directly via phone call in a free consultation before arranging an appointment.

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.
