1:1 support

Support that’s built entirely around you

Executive function coaching and hypnotherapy to help you things you want to do, with less overthinking and self-doubt.

Why it feels so hard

You’ve got things you want to do, responsibilities to manage and a head full of thoughts. But putting more effort in doesn’t always help.

Maybe you:

  • Spend so long thinking through the options that you struggle to choose.
  • Put off something important, even when you know the next step.

  • Make a plan, get interrupted and struggle to pick it up again.

  • Keep checking, rewriting or preparing because you’re worried about getting it wrong.

  • Rely on last-minute pressure, then feel exhausted afterwards.

You might recognise some of these patterns but still struggle to change them. Or you may have tried plenty of advice that hasn’t worked for you.

My 1:1 work brings together executive function coaching and hypnotherapy, shaped around what you want help with. We explore where things become difficult, find practical approaches to try, and work through the self-doubt, fear or pressure that may be getting in the way.

How 1:1 support works

We start with what you want to do, change or work towards, and explore what’s getting in the way. What have you already tried? Where would some support make a difference?

Executive function coaching helps us understand the practical demands and find ways to make them more manageable. You might experiment with a clearer starting point, a way to keep track of things or a plan that takes your capacity into account.

Hypnotherapy gives us another way to work with fears, beliefs and reactions that can be difficult to shift through thinking alone.

We agree together what would be useful. Some sessions focus on practical steps; others allow more space for the deeper work. As you try things between sessions, we review what helps and adapt the support.

What you’ll gain

A clearer understanding of your brain and support to put that understanding into practice.

Together, we work towards helping you:

  • Get started on things you care about, with less reliance on last-minute pressure.

  • Make plans that fit your capacity and adjust them when life changes.

  • Return to things after interruptions or setbacks.

  • Spend less time checking, second-guessing or talking yourself out of trying.

  • Recognise what support you need and feel more comfortable using it.

  • Build confidence in your own judgement through noticing what works for you.

The aim is to help you do more of what matters to you, with less time and energy spent fighting yourself.

    The Reset (Hypnotherapy): £540

    You know there’s something you want to do, but you keep pulling back. Perhaps being visible feels exposing, asking for what you need brings up guilt, or fear of getting it wrong stops you from taking the next step.

    The Reset gives us space to explore and work with the fears, beliefs and reactions involved through personalised hypnotherapy.

    Includes:

    • Three 90-minute sessions, shaped around you and what you want to work on.
    • Email or text check-in after each session.
    • One bespoke hypnotherapy recording, created after your final session to support you moving forward.

    We agree the spacing of your appointments together. Each session builds on what we’re learning, with room to adapt as we go.

    Best for: focused hypnotherapy support with a recurring fear, belief or emotional response that’s getting in your way.

    Bespoke Hypnotherapy Recording: £120

    A personalised audio recording focused on something you want support with, such as overthinking, confidence, or feeling more comfortable doing something you’ve been avoiding.

    After a short consultation, I’ll create a recording around your needs, for you to use at home. It can be used on its own or alongside coaching sessions.

    Best for: a focused recording you can return to in your own time.

    Kind Words

    “The three sessions that I had with you, were absolutely mind blowing, I’ve been inspired and had the courage to “find” myself and to be more than just a partner and a mother. I have begun to formulate plans and strategies to both change the structure of my day and also how I perceive myself. Changes are most definitely being made! I also now realise that I do not require a label to define myself. I am me and that is enough.”

    Jane

    “My time with Kate enabled me to look at things from different perspectives, this has all had a great positive impact. Kate is insightful, skilled and nurturing and I would really recommend working with her. I found the whole experience extremely calming and great for the soul.”

    Catherine

    “Kate’s sessions have guided me from feeling very lost and overwhelmed in my career and ways of thinking to being able to understand what really matters and to more confidently move forward more instinctually and follow my nose. They’ve helped me feel more confident about my skills and experience and that my dreams are possible.”

    Jenny

    “I have felt I have lost who I am, feel misunderstood, angry and anxious a lot of the time, being triggered very easily and not understanding why. Just one session with Kate took me to a place where I could regain my inner calm and realise who I am. I’d highly recommend that anyone reading this to take that step and contact Kate!”

    Charlotte

    “My self belief has gone sky high. I feel such confidence that I have never felt before. I never anticipated that I would get so much out of my time with Kate. It’s like a veil has been lifted and I finally feel an inner peace in myself. I couldn’t recommend it enough.”

    Emma

    “I came to see Kate struggling with my identity after a career break. Through a combination of coaching and hypnosis Kate helped me attack my CV with excitement and confidence and within just two sessions I had a clearer idea of what I wanted to be doing and how to get there with renewed ambition and self-belief. The hypnosis helped me to bolster this confidence and focus on the tasks we had discussed in the sessions. Now I am ready to start contacting prospective employers and am excited about my next chapter.”

    You might be wondering…

    Do I need a diagnosis to work with you?

    No. Some people I work with identify as neurodivergent; others describe having a busy brain or recognise the difficulties described on this page.

    We start with what you want help with, explore what makes it difficult and find approaches that fit you.

    Do I have to do hypnotherapy?

    No. We’ll discuss the approaches available and choose together. You can work with me using executive function coaching and practical strategies, or include hypnotherapy to explore underlying beliefs and emotional responses.

    Is this therapy?

    My work combines executive function coaching and clinical hypnotherapy. Coaching focuses on understanding your brain and developing practical ways of working; hypnotherapy provides a therapeutic approach to beliefs and emotional responses.

    We’ll discuss what support fits your needs. If you need support beyond my qualifications or scope, I’ll explain that.

    What does ongoing 1:1 support look like?

    We meet fortnightly for a 60-minute session to explore what’s happening, review what you’ve tried and decide what to work on next.

    Between sessions, voice and text support is available Monday–Friday, 9am-4pm (UK time), for check-ins, questions and help adapting your approach.

    What if things don't go to plan between sessions?

    That gives us useful information about what needs adjusting. We’ll explore what happened and adapt the strategy, rather than assume you need to try harder.

    If you’re on the ongoing support package, you can also use the between-session support to talk things through.
