About me, Viv
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 study Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy. Our brains are amazing. 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 led me to the Clifton Practice Training School in Bristol, and after an interview with David Newton, I was accepted to the course.
I qualified from the Clifton Practice in 2013 with a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy (DHP). And was awarded a Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD) by the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH). To qualify for this, you have to have submitted and 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.
On top of that, in recent years also added IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy and Breathwork Coaching to my repertoire.
What I think!
I now have 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 Atworth, Wiltshire, and 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, and 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.
