Advanced EFT, Matrix Reimprinting & Clinical Hypnotherapy for Adult ADHD, Burnout & Limiting Beliefs

I did not become a therapist because I read a textbook. I retrained to understand and resolve the root causes of my own stress after 30 years working in high pressure kitchens. I understand exactly what burnout, anxiety and survival mode feel like, and more importantly, how to switch them off.

Who I Help?

I work with adults who are functioning on the outside but struggling internally with:

Adult ADHD and AuDHD, moving from frozen and overwhelmed to focused and present, without shame.

Burnout and Nervous System Dysregulation, releasing the patterns that keep you stuck in survival mode long after the stress has passed.

Limiting Beliefs and Self Worth, deep rooted beliefs about safety, money, and not feeling enough.

Anxiety, the exhausting feeling of constantly scanning for danger, criticism or rejection.

My Approach

Positive thinking does not fix a dysregulated nervous system. You cannot talk your way out of a stress response.

Reframe Ahead Therapy uses Advanced EFT (Tapping) and Matrix Reimprinting to work directly with the body's stress response, accessing the specific memories and beliefs holding the pattern in place and safely resolving them. Clinical Hypnotherapy is woven in as a powerful tool for deep relaxation, subconscious reframing and habit change, working alongside the core investigative work of EFT.

Location

Private clinic in Daventry, Northamptonshire, with secure online sessions available for clients across the UK and worldwide.

Before founding Reframe Ahead Therapy, I spent over 30 years working in high pressure professional kitchens. I have significant lived experience of the toll that chronic stress, undiagnosed neurodivergence (ADHD), and anxiety take on the mind and body.

My transition into therapy was driven by a need to understand and resolve my own nervous system dysregulation. I found that while talk therapy helps with insight, it rarely fixes the physiological feeling of anxiety or burnout.

This realisation led me to retrain in somatic and energy psychology methods. I now run a dedicated clinic in Daventry, helping others access the same relief and stability that I found through these powerful modalities.

I hold professional qualifications from the industry's leading training bodies. My core training was completed directly under the guidance of Karl Dawson, the creator of Matrix Reimprinting and one of only 29 EFT Masters worldwide.

I specialise in Nervous System Regulation for the following areas:

Scarcity Mindset and Limiting Beliefs

Resolving deep rooted financial anxiety and money blocks. Shifting beliefs around safety, security, and not feeling enough. Imposter Syndrome in professional environments.

Burnout and High Pressure Stress

Recovery for professionals in catering, corporate, or high stress industries. Adrenal fatigue and exhaustion. Transitioning from survival mode to stability.

Anxiety and Trauma

Anxiety and constantly scanning for danger or criticism. C-PTSD and childhood trauma responses. Panic attacks and generalised anxiety. Phobias and specific fears.

A Somatic and Solution Focused Approach

My work is grounded in the understanding that stress, trauma, and limiting beliefs are not just thoughts in your head, they are physiological responses held in your nervous system. Talking about them is rarely enough to clear them.

I work logically and safely to help you access the root cause of your symptoms, rather than just managing them.

How We Work Together

1. Nervous System First

We do not dive straight into heavy trauma. We begin with Advanced EFT (Tapping) to regulate your nervous system in the present moment. This lowers cortisol and brings you out of fight, flight or freeze, allowing you to think clearly and feel safe enough to do the deeper work.

2. Clinical Hypnotherapy (Preparing the Ground)

Where appropriate, we use Clinical Hypnotherapy before or alongside the deeper work. This is not stage hypnosis or loss of control. You remain fully aware throughout. Hypnotherapy allows us to quieten the critical, analytical mind and open a direct line to the subconscious, where your beliefs, patterns and stress responses actually live. This makes the work that follows significantly more effective.

3. Matrix Reimprinting (The Deep Work)

Once you are regulated and the subconscious is receptive, we use Matrix Reimprinting to bridge the gap between your past experiences and your current behaviour. We revisit the memories where specific beliefs were formed, such as "I am not safe," "I am not enough," or "I do not deserve rest."

Crucially, you do not have to relive the trauma. We work to resolve the emotion held in that memory so it stops driving your behaviour today.

4. Integration and Consolidation

Following the deeper work, Hypnotherapy is used again to anchor the positive shifts made during the session, reinforce new beliefs at a subconscious level, and support lasting habit change. This is where insight becomes lasting transformation rather than a temporary feeling of relief.

I view therapy as a collaboration. You remain fully conscious and in control throughout every session. My goal is not to keep you in therapy for years, but to give you the tools to self regulate and move forward independently.

Session Format

I offer a confidential, non judgmental space in Daventry, Northamptonshire, as well as secure online sessions for clients who prefer to work from the comfort of their own home.
