About Me

Jodie of Cotswold Healing Therapies

A little about me

Hi, I'm Jodie. I am a hypnotherapist, Reiki practitioner, student counsellor, mum, step-mum, wife and dog owner. I live and work in Coates, just 5 miles from the centre of Cirencester and love the beautiful Cotswold walks available on my doorstep.

My journey to becoming a full time therapist has been fun and at times unexpected, but I have such a huge sense of gratitude to be able to work with my clients to achieve, at times, life changing results together. My own journey into perimenopause has inspired my passion to provide support and guidance for my clients. I am qualified as a hypnomenopause practitioner and believe that every woman deserves to feel valued through this transition stage in their life.

I am passionate about getting to know my clients and truly understanding why they have reached out for therapy, I understand that sometimes the symptoms that they are dealing with are just the tip of the iceberg and pride myself on providing a safe space to feel heard and valued as we work together to resolve any underlying concerns or heal from any previous traumas.

I am a member of the National Hypnotherapy Society and have a Diploma in Hypnotherapy and Counselling Skills. I am always fascinated by the simplicity and success of hypnotherapy and will never forget my first successful smoking cessation client, I'm not sure which of us was more excited by the result! Every hypnotherapy session here is tailored by me to suit the needs of each individual client, I do not believe that there is one script to suit all, as such I make sure that I get to understand you, how you think and how you talk, to ensure that the personalised session will be beneficial.

I have been a Reiki practitioner since 2013, I fell in love with this beautiful healing modality and it has supported me throughout my previous career as a Teaching Assistant, Emotional Literacy Support Assistant (ELSA) and Speech Language and Communication Needs Assistant (SLCN) in Primary Schools. By training as an ELSA I was inspired to complete my training as a KidsMatters™ therapist which enables me to provide hypnotherapy and emotional coaching for children.

I am a fan of combining the therapies that I offer and love how beautifully hypnotherapy and Reiki combine in the form of HypnoticReiki, a blend of relaxation, rebalance and subconscious transformation. Working with Neal's Yard Remedies has given me the opportunity to expand the services I offer and I can now share the fabulous skincare and well-being products with you.

So, that was a little about me, I'm looking forward to getting to know a little about you!
