About me. Why I became a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist. 

Intrigued by the wonders of the human mind and body since I studied Anatomy and Physiology in 2005, consequently led me to studying Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Our brains are amazing. And Neuroscientists are helping us learn more and more all the time.

Learning about the different systems of the human body is eye opening. I could not believe that I had walked around, taking my health and body for granted for so long. I found the nervous system particularly interesting. And after being a reflexologist in Bath for seven years I decided to add another dimension to my practice.

Viv Kenchington training and Qualifications

As a result of its ‘Gold Standard’ reputation. Research lead me to the Clifton Practice training school in Bristol, and after an interview with David Newton I was accepted on the course.

I qualified from the Clifton Practice in 2013 with a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy (DHP). And was awarded from the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH) a Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD). To qualify for this you have to have submitted and had validated (by the NCH) a large portfolio of work.

I am a Full member of the NCH and the Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapists (AfSFH). Full Membership requires you to undertake continual professional development throughout your career.

What I think!

I have now no doubt in my mind that this therapy is extraordinary. Using methods of Solution Focused Brief Therapy with Clinical Hypnotherapy results in a quick, powerful way to make life changing developments.

I practice Solution Focused Hypnotherapy in both Bath and in Atworth, Wiltshire. I have helped many people turn their lives around from a whole host of difficulties. Depression, severe anxiety, panic attacks, motivational issues, fears, phobias, performance anxieties, hair pulling, nail biting to name but a few.

Seeing people gain momentum on their chosen path, is the most wonderful and rewarding thing to see. It’s a privilege to be working in this field and I look forward to a long and happy life helping others.
