Essex Anxiety Coach



Hello
Hi, I'm Chris. the Essex Anxiety Coach.
I help women break free from anxiety, overwhelm, and toxic cycles so they can feel confident and take back control of their life .
I’m happily married with two fabulous adult children, a son-in-law, and a beautiful dog who reminds me every day to slow down and live in the moment.
I love music - except jazz, and can often be found at a festival or at a gig. I love spending time outside and sitting around a firepit or spending time with family and friends. Travelling is my favourite thing. New experiences, new places and preferably some sun make me very happy.
I don't like pesto, in fact I detest the stuff. Even the smell makes me gag and I think avocado is overrated. Controversial, I know!
I’ve got lots of tattoos, each one has a special meaning and tells a chapter in the story of my life.
I live life on my terms, and I believe you should too.
After breaking free from my own struggles with anxiety, emotional overload, and self-doubt, I now help women like you change your life, so you can stop just getting through each day and start actually living.
From Struggle to Strength:My Story
I know what it’s like to have anxiety dictating your life. The constant battle with your own thoughts, the awful self-doubt and the never ending stress.
I’m not going to offer you temporary fixes or more coping strategies. I’m here to help you change the way you respond to your thoughts and emotions, so they no longer control you.
Anxiety is a habit and like any other habit - it can be broken.
I know. I put in the work, and transformed from an anxious, overwhelmed woman, to someone who is confident, in control and loves life.
If I Can Do It, You Can Too.
The breakthrough came for me when I discovered Mindfulness. I realised I didn’t have to be controlled by my thoughts or emotions. I could choose how I wanted to interact with them. And that was the game changer. I started responding differently to triggers, breaking free from the exhausting cycle of stress.
I reclaimed my life.
Why My Clients Choose Me:
Because I understand.
I know how to help you to rewrite the beliefs you have about yourself, heal your trauma and break free from the cycle of overthinking that causes your anxiety and lack of confidence, with a personalised approach tailored to your unique needs and goals.
With 25+ years of experience supporting women like you,
I’ve worked in private practice, education, the criminal justice system, and with female refugees. I’ve pretty much seen it all. And what I know is that whatever the situation, one thing stays the same: the key to overcoming anxiety is not just managing it—it’s rewiring the way you respond to it.
The Story Behind My Approach:
As a Complementary Therapist, I realised that it wasn’t just about the treatments—it was about the conversations. When my clients had a safe space in which to talk about whatever was bothering them, that’s when the real healing began.
So I became a Coach. I then realised that it wasn’t the external circumstances causing the problem; it was how they were thinking about those circumstances. So I trained in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and qualified in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) so that I could give my clients the tools to manage their thoughts.
But some clients needed something more. They had deeply rooted emotions that just wouldn’t shift. So I trained as an Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) practitioner to help them release that built-up resistence.
And then I understood that some people were carrying old beliefs and habits buried deep in their subconscious that they were unaware of. That’s when I became a Clinical Hypnotherapist, helping my clients resolve the deep-rooted issues that were keeping them trapped.
That's how my Freedom from Anxiety Programme was born.
It’s a unique, trauma-informed approach that combines all my training and experience into one powerful programme designed to break the cycle of anxiety at its core.
You don’t have to live with anxiety. You can choose to, rewire your mind, regain control, and live the life you want and deserve.
I am accredited by EMCC at Senior Practitioner level and I am a member of the Complementary Medicine Association (MCMA).
