Borth Reiki, Hypnotherapy & Counselling Services Supporting clients with their mental health in a supportive and confidential environment
(1)

My vision as a qualified counsellor and hypnotherapist is to serve the individual needs of each client and in turn create a world where trauma and anxiety are healed in a more compassionate way that leaves you, the client, feeling in control of your own healing. It is my belief that trauma and anxiety cannot be healed by talking alone and a more diverse, holistic approach brings with it a more com

passionate way of healing which brings a real difference to the lives of clients. I have worked with Reiki since 2008 and have attuned over 100 students to this healing energy. Because I have a knowledge and understanding of energy and how that energy works on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level, I bring something new to psychotherapy. Through neuroscience and the use of EFT I can teach clients how to coregulate their own nervous system so that trauma and anxiety can be worked through in a safe therapeutic environment. I have worked with the tarot since 2001 and over that time became very interested in Jungian psychology. I have recently completed an area of study around using the tarot in therapy to help clients understand their unconscious processes. This has proven to be very valuable in clients understanding themselves at a deeper level. I chose this path because someone very close to me has a serious mental health illness along with a diagnosis of autism. There was very little choice of counsellors out there who were willing to work with my loved one on a holistic level. What he really needed was an approach which was more creative, where he could walk and talk with the therapist out in nature so he did not feel intimidated being in a closed room where his anxiety levels would inevitably rise. My loved one missed their needs being met in therapy because nobody was willing to think outside the box of what was thought of as traditional therapy. I believe that if a client is paying for a service, they should have a say in how they want their needs met and be offered a broader range of options. If you wish to choose the traditional way (and most clients do), then this is absolutely fine, but if you need something more diverse and therapeutic, you have the option to access this type of therapy with me. As a qualified counsellor and hypnotherapist, I am registered with the National Counselling and psychotherapy Society and the National Hypnotherapy Society. Their ethos is to support their members to approach these therapies as a vocation. I see my work as my soul purpose and maintain high levels of professionalism and confidentiality. I take continued professional development seriously and dedicate a lot of my free time to this to ensure I am able to keep up to date with new approaches and innovative new ways of bringing healing into the lives of my clients. I have regular supervision for both of these modalities and as such abide by the strict code of ethics outlined by the NCPS and the HS. My qualifications are:

🌿 For those of you who are new to my page, I thought it was probably time to introduce myself again… 🌿

I'm Sharon, a Creative Integrative Counsellor and Hypnotherapist, but actually, my journey into this work started long before I ever trained as a counsellor.

Looking back, I've realised that there was never really a plan. I just seemed to follow whatever I was being drawn towards at the time, and each new thing seemed to appear just when I was ready for it.

It all started with tarot over 20 years ago. At the time, I was looking for answers and trying to make sense of what was happening in my own life. Tarot gave me a way of looking at things differently and really started my interest in understanding ourselves on a deeper level.

Then came Reiki, which I've been practising for around 18 years now. Reiki became such an important part of my own healing journey and taught me so much about energy, intuition and simply being present with someone.

From there I explored shamanic healing, the Munay-Ki rites and the Medicine Wheel, and over the years I've continued to learn and bring different pieces into my work.

Then came hypnotherapy.

I trained in hypnotherapy in 2016/17 because I was fascinated by the mind and particularly by what happens beneath the surface of our conscious thoughts. I loved discovering how powerful our subconscious mind can be and how hypnotherapy can help us work with some of those deeper patterns.

I then trained as an integrative counsellor, qualifying in 2019, because I wanted to understand people even more deeply and have a stronger therapeutic foundation for the work I was doing.

And this is where I am now…

A Creative Integrative Counsellor and Hypnotherapist who doesn't believe that one approach will work for everyone.

I actually think that's one of the things I love most about my work. ❤️

We're all different. We have different experiences, different personalities, different ways of processing things and different things that have happened to us.

So why would we all need to heal in exactly the same way?

I'm also much more creative in my work than I used to be. I've discovered that sometimes talking isn't enough. Sometimes there are things we feel that are incredibly difficult to put into words.

That's where creativity can be so powerful.

Using colour, drawing, images, metaphor and other creative ways of exploring what's going on inside us can sometimes help us access something that talking simply can't reach.

And then there's hypnotherapy, working with the subconscious mind, alongside counselling, somatic approaches and my own intuition and experience.

My background in Reiki and trance healing has also taught me to trust my intuition. I don't mean that I have all the answers — far from it! — but I've learned to listen carefully to what a client is bringing into the room and to notice the things that perhaps aren't being said.

I believe healing needs to be integrative because we aren't just a mind.

We're a whole person.

Our thoughts, emotions, bodies, experiences, beliefs and relationships all interact with each other.

And there's another part of my life experience that has had a huge influence on the therapist I am today.

I know what it's like to support someone you love through severe mental illness.

I've experienced the fear, the uncertainty, the exhaustion and the constant wondering about what is going to happen next. I've experienced the grief that doesn't always look like grief and the feeling of trying desperately to understand something that you simply can't make sense of.

That experience has shaped me enormously, both personally and professionally.

So when I sit with a client, I'm not just bringing my qualifications into the room. I'm bringing years of learning, my own life experiences, my curiosity about people and the many different tools I've collected along the way.

I don't believe there is one magic answer.

Sometimes we need counselling.

Sometimes we need to understand what's happening to us.

Sometimes we need to work with the subconscious.

Sometimes we need to get creative.

Sometimes we need to reconnect with our body.

And sometimes we simply need somebody to sit beside us while we work things out.

That's what I hope my work offers.

A safe space where you don't have to fit into a box.

Where we can work together and find what feels right for you. 🌿

And if you've been following me for a while, thank you for being here. ❤️

My work has changed and evolved so much over the years, and I'm sure it will continue to do so!

There was never a plan… I've just followed the path as it appeared.

And somehow, looking back, it all makes perfect sense. ✨

If you're new here, welcome. I'm really glad you've found me. ❤️

✨ Munay-Ki Rites & Medicine Wheel Training 2027 – 3 Places Available ✨

I'm excited to announce that I have just 3 places available on my next Munay-Ki Rites & Medicine Wheel journey.

This is a deeply transformational experience, so it's important that you are able to commit to all three parts of the training. Each part builds upon the last, creating a complete initiation into the Munay-Ki Rites.

💫 Investment
• £150 per level (3 levels)
• A £50 deposit is required to secure each level at the time of booking (£150 total in deposits).

During this journey you will receive all 9 Munay-Ki Rites, ancient energetic initiations passed down from the Q'ero wisdom keepers of the Andes. These rites are designed to support you in releasing limiting patterns, deepen your spiritual connection, strengthen your intuition, raise your energetic vibration, and step more fully into your authentic path with greater clarity, purpose and compassion.

As an additional gift, I also include the Rite of the Womb at no extra cost during Part 3. This beautiful rite is offered to support the healing of inherited emotional wounds, past trauma and the sacred feminine, creating space for greater freedom, creativity and empowerment.

🌿 A Personal Note

Many of you know how much I love teaching this work. However, from 2028 I will be taking a break from teaching the Munay-Ki while I focus on a new project that's been calling me for some time behind the scenes.

Because of that, this is a wonderful opportunity if you've been thinking, "One day I'd love to do the Munay-Ki." That day could be now.

If you've felt drawn to this path, trust that nudge.

If you'd like one of the three places, or would like to know more, please send me a message. I'd love to hear from you.

✨ Sometimes the soul knows it's time before the mind catches up.

Is forgiveness really about the other person… or is it about us?

For years, I thought forgiveness meant letting someone off the hook. Now I see it very differently.

As a counsellor, it's something that comes up in therapy time and time again. So many people feel pressured to forgive before they're ready, often believing it's the only way to heal.

But what if we've misunderstood forgiveness?

What if healing comes first... and forgiveness, if it comes at all, simply follows?

In my latest blog, I share some of my own personal journey and why I believe forgiveness isn't about excusing what's happened—it's about freeing ourselves from carrying it.

I'd love to know what you think.

Ten years ago, I took a leap of faith.

After many happy years working as a childminder and then as a play and outreach worker, I made the difficult decision to leave a career I loved and follow a passion that had been quietly growing inside me for years. I began my hypnotherapy training and took the plunge to run my Reiki business full time.

People often say, "You do so many different things!" But the truth is, none of it happened overnight.

My spiritual journey started over 25 years ago when I first picked up a pack of tarot cards. Since then I've studied Reiki, mediumship, trance, shamanic healing, crystals, psychotherapy, counselling, hypnotherapy, supervision and so much more. Every course, every client, every life experience has added another piece to the puzzle of who I am and how I work.

Looking back over the last decade, I'm incredibly grateful that I trusted my intuition. It hasn't always been easy, and there have certainly been moments of doubt, but I wouldn't change the path I've taken.

Today I feel I'm closer than ever to creating something that is truly my own—bringing together psychology, healing, spirituality and lived experience in a way that feels authentic to me, rather than trying to fit into someone else's mould.

To everyone who has trusted me with their stories, supported my business, trained alongside me or encouraged me over the years, thank you. You've all been part of this journey.

Here's to the next chapter... I have a feeling it's going to be the most exciting one yet. 💜
