Boost Confidence
Develop the confidence to achieve your goals
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and/or hypnotherapy are very effective at helping to boost confidence - whether it be general self-esteem, confidence at work, public speaking or social situations. I will work with you to understand your goals and deal with the fears, underlying beliefs and behaviours that are holding you back.
A lack of confidence in social situations is very common and can have a big impact on your life. People often believe that others will judge them negatively, and this belief can lead to anxiety. In turn, this anxiety can cause unwanted behaviour such as sweating, blushing, stammering or "clamming up" and not knowing what to say. Cognitive behavioural therapy can help you understand and overcome these underlying fears and beliefs, allowing you to enjoy social situations and giving you the confidence to just be yourself.

About Me
Mimi Fakhri BSc Dip. CBH GQHP
I am passionate about helping people who struggle with anxiety, worry or stress to reclaim their lives. I do this using a mixture of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), hypnosis and other evidence-based techniques (such as mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), matching the evidence about what works to your individual needs and preferences.
I am passionate about helping people learn tools and skills to help them help themselves. My aim is that you become your own therapist, not reliant on me.
I worked for over 15 years in corporate business, so I understand first hand the pressures of a fast-paced, pressure-filled environment and the difficulties of juggling this with family life.
I have an evidence-based philosophy, which means I believe you have the right to treatment which is based on sound scientific research. This means I keep up to date with the latest scientific research and my approach is based on the best up to date evidence.
I'm registered with with the General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR) and Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) and am a member of the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABC), and am bound to their stringent Codes of Ethics.
It’s really important that you work with someone you feel comfortable with, so please feel free to call me for a chat so you can get a feel for how I could help (or, if you prefer, send me a message).
To find out more about whether cognitive behavioural therapy or hypnotherapy could help you, I offer a free, no-strings 15 minute telephone or Zoom consultation.
