MY STORY
From being trapped to finding freedom
- Jo's Journey to Emotional Freedom and Transformation -
Today, I am a Master Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping) Trainer of Trainers, a Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner, a Reiki and Angelic Reiki Master Trainer, a Hypnotherapist, and a Timeline™ Therapist. Prior to my work in these fields, I spent 20 years in education as a teacher, both in mainstream and special educational needs (SEN) settings.
​
My journey into EFT and NLP began during a challenging time in my life, when I was searching for ways to overcome the emotional hurdles brought on by sudden changes. My exploration of these powerful modalities led me to learn and qualify in the techniques that ultimately helped me find emotional healing.
​
As I experienced the transformative effects of EFT and NLP, friends and family members started asking how these modalities could help them with their own emotional challenges. This inspired me to become an EFT Practitioner and eventually an NLP Practitioner, ultimately turning my newfound skills into a full-time career.
I now specialise in helping both adults and children find freedom from distress, anxiety, fear, and stress as a Master Emotional Freedom Technique Trainer and NLP Practitioner.
​
Recently, I have combined my background in education with my EFT and NLP expertise to develop the "Tap, Tap Happy Programme." This programme is designed to support children and young people struggling with various emotional issues, including coping with the school day. The "Tap, Tap Happy Programme" has successfully equipped many children with the tools they need to navigate modern life and its challenges.
​
In addition to my work as a Master Emotional Freedom Technique Trainer and NLP Practitioner, I am also a dedicated business and social media coach, committed to helping fellow EFT practitioners and complementary therapists grow and develop their own thriving businesses.
​
Drawing from my personal experience and expertise in building a successful holistic practice, I offer tailored coaching services that focus on essential business skills, effective marketing strategies, and social media mastery. My coaching approach is designed to empower holistic professionals in creating a strong online presence, attracting their ideal clients, and achieving sustainable business growth.
​
My passion for supporting fellow EFT practitioners and complementary therapists stems from the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to transform their passion into a fulfilling and prosperous career. As your coach, I will be by your side, providing guidance, motivation, and unwavering cheerleading to ensure your holistic business reaches its full potential.
​
Whether you're just starting your journey or looking to elevate your existing practice, I am here to help you overcome obstacles, develop confidence, and acquire the skills needed to succeed in the ever-evolving landscape of holistic business and social media.

TESTIMONIALS
What Clients Are Saying
Jo is a breath of fresh air. She has a huge wealth of knowledge and professional expertise, but her natural and playful way with both children and adults is something that just can't be taught. It's pure magic. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Jo and I cannot speak highly enough of her work and her approach.
