Awaken the Change

Awaken the Change Relief from anxiety & stress-based symptoms. Evidence-based hypnotherapy & coaching. Online. This includes people with work-related or personal issues.

WHAT I DO:
I empower people to feel better and develop their true potential. HOW I DO IT:
I work with adults around the world who feel stuck and want to change with hypnotherapy, counselling, coaching and training. I also bring skills from working as a nurse and nurse educator for over 30 years and training as a psychologist. I can help people with medical issues, stress and anxiety issues, goal

setting, habits and struggles with learning and exams. As a result, people feel listened to and find new ways to feel better and achieve their goals. WHO I WORK WITH:
I have experience working with adults from all backgrounds, but the thing they all have in common is that they want to change something in their lives and can feel in control again. I love to work with people who need to get past self-limiting beliefs or have habits or fears that are blocking their way. As I also trained as a TEFL teacher (Teaching English as a Second Language) many years ago I have a special passion for helping people who are struggling to learn a second language by addressing the psychological aspects and motivating them to learn more. WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
Through feedback and testimonials, I have had hundreds of happy clients who have told me that I have helped them to change their lives. Tracy said | ‘I am so much more confident in my work and myself.’

Charlie James-Peers said | ‘I received 4 hypnotherapy sessions and the results have been beyond my wildest expectations. Would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking of receiving help. Linda is extremely well qualified and can help anyone. Thank you, Linda!’

Lynda said | ‘I would very much recommend this course. In just four weeks I have got a good insight into my own way of learning. It has given me the confidence and motivation to learn my language of choice.’

BACKGROUND:
I consider myself to be a lifelong learner, to improve not only myself but also working in helping professions to develop others. My background is in nursing, teaching and therapy work. I am qualified and experienced with an MSc in Hypnosis, research, medicine & clinical practice, an MSc in Psychology, BSc(Hons) in Nursing, and an MA in Interprofessional health & community care. My business, Awaken the Change, was established in 2007. I work mainly online via Zoom helping clients and teaching groups.

Grief changes over time.

"It was just a pet." Anyone who has truly loved an animal knows how deeply untrue those words are. Our pets are family, and their loss leaves a profound hole that others don't always understand.

If you are hurting, please know your grief is valid.

In my book, "Managing Pet Grief," I share personal stories and professional insights to help you understand this unique pain and navigate a way forward while keeping their memory close to your heart.

If you’re coping on the outside but struggling on the inside, you’re not alone. You might look perfectly "all dressed up" today, makeup done, favourite clothes on, but on the inside, you're feeling irritable, exhausted, or unhappy.

Life is simply too short to keep pretending.

In this video, Linda explains exactly why we do this and how you can finally hit the reset button. If you're ready to find a new way forward and focus your mind for the positive results you deserve, watch this short video.

Let's make this month the turning point. Book a complimentary clarity call via Zoom today.

"Toilet anxiety?" Don’t suffer in silence. If you find it difficult or impossible to urinate when others are nearby, it’s called Paruresis (or "shy bladder syndrome"). It is far more common than you think.

Crucially, it’s not a bladder problem—it’s an anxiety response. When you feel anxious, your nervous system triggers a lock-down, muscles tighten, and urination stops. It can completely take over your daily life, work, and social confidence.

But there is good news.

Paruresis responds incredibly well to hypnotherapy and counselling. You can feel calmer, more in control, and confident again.

Let's change this. Book a complimentary, confidential clarity call via Zoom this June to help you on your journey to a calmer life:

A Sunday evening reflection...

"I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence, but it comes from within. It is there all the time." - Anna Freud

When the week ahead feels big, remember that your capacity to handle it is bigger. You don't need to find strength; you simply need to remember that you already own it.

Pause. Breathe. Reconnect with yourself.

Have a restful evening.
