About Kate

Kate Delaney PhD has a Diploma in Hypnotherapy and Counselling Skills (Dist.) and specialises in Clinical Hypnotherapy. She offers a friendly and professional environment for clients to resolve a range of issues from weight loss to smoking, phobias to self-confidence. By using the best available techniques therapy is focused at the root of the problem so old habits, behaviours and fears can be changed for good. Many issues can be resolved in several sessions and a free initial phone consultation is offered to discuss whether hypnotherapy would be suitable.
