Russell Hoyles : Lead Practitioner. Motivational Hypnotherapist and Counsellor. MY PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND: I practised for 25 years as a mental health social worker. I have considerable experience across a range of mental health issues, lifestyle challenges, and illnesses. Ongoing 'professional development' throughout my career has seen me add qualifications and skills to my practice. I have excellent skills in assessing the needs of my clients which enables me to offer suitable and clinically indicated therapies such counselling, behavioural strategies, hypnotherapy. I describe myself as a 'Wellbeing Coach'. In terms of your safety and confidence I hold qualifications and registrations that are both academically and government recognised as showing my expertise and ethical practice: I have a Degree in Applied Social Studies and am a Qualified Social Worker. I am a 'Central Council for the Education and Training in Social Work' Approved Practice Teacher. I am a Member of The Northern Association of Professional Clinical Hypnotherapists. I am an approved Consultant Mentor with All About Weight Ltd. I am registered with the General Social Care Council which is a body monitoring training levels and members good practice. I have a clean Criminal Records Bureau 'Enhanced Disclosure' (CRB) which all persons working in this area should have...but many dont! RELEVANT PERSONAL BACKGROUND: I have a lifelong
passion for health and fitness. I am extremely competent and capable in a fitness/gym enviroment and offer 'gym buddy'
sessions which are about supporting people new to such an enviroment. I also as a youngster had my own weight issues so I
can empathise with clients struggling to achieve a healthy 'feel good' weight. I can also show and mentor you
to success in that regard! More recently I had a cancer journey during which I used self hypnosis and NLP which I am certain
enhanced my fight and which ultimately led me to healing. I believe in the power of the mind!
