Lauri is a qualified Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and a member of the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH). She completed her training with Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training (CPHT) and holds the Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma (HPD).

Lauri brings over twenty years' experience as a secondary school teacher, supporting young people and families from a wide range of backgrounds, including those with special educational needs and neurodivergent differences. She has a deep appreciation that every person is unique and that progress is rarely about taking giant leaps, but about recognising strengths, taking small steps and building momentum over time.

Lauri’s therapeutic approach draws on Solution Focused Brief Therapy, positive psychology, clinical hypnotherapy and current understanding of how stress affects the brain and body. Sessions focus on helping clients identify what they want more of in life and recognise the strengths and resources they already possess. Chronic stress can affect sleep, concentration, mood and physical wellbeing, and guided relaxation can help support the body's natural relaxation response.

Clients often value the practical and collaborative nature of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Sessions combine future-focused conversation with guided relaxation, supporting the body's natural relaxation response and helping clients recognise strengths, resources and opportunities for positive change. The work is tailored to the individual and is based on the belief that lasting change is often achieved through small steps and building momentum over time.

Lauri offers sessions in person and online in a warm, compassionate and supportive environment. She believes that people are far more than their problems and that with the right support, even small changes can lead to meaningful and lasting improvements in everyday life.
