From the first moment of diagnosis it was a choice ;  either I could sink into numbness or I could gradually discover what I was able to do. 

I had been diagnosed with prostate cancer back in October 2006. This was a very traumatic time for me. My way of dealing with this was through Reiki. It was purely by chance that I decided to try hypnotherapy.

In 1978, a week before my sixteenth birthday, I was told that I had Hodgkins Disease.  For the next three years I received the very best treatment available but needless-to-say I went through some very hard times.  In those days there weren’t effective anti-sickness drugs, CT machines were few and far between and complementary therapies were only found in fairy tales.
