Hello and welcome.

I began therapy training in 2001, qualified in Clinical Complementary therapy, anatomy, pathology and physiology in 2008 and continued into Integrative Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy, Mindful Awareness practices and worked for many years supporting and treating cancer patients and training within a large NHS Cancer Hospital Trust.

I began my therapy journey to find and experience Natural therapies to assist in my own healing processes, hoping to banish my own internal demands and feelings of guilt, shame, anger and self loathing, all had effected and compounded my newly diagnosed Auto Immune disorder.

It was whilst studying, I was 1st diagnosed with dyslexia… one new label adding to the many I’d been given during my life, I believed all of them to be truths, personally identifying myself with them.

I’m glad to inform you that even a mature brain, like mine, and yours, has the ability and capacity to change and re-invent itself.  I learned how to re-write my internal narratives and made myself a new belief system, I turned my life around and stabilised my physical and psychological health.

I strive and continuing to seeking out modern and new therapies, such as BWRT, working with people and helping them discover their own inner resources, strengths and abilities as they battle with their own general and complex health issues.

My personal development journey started well into my 40’s, when many told me to just enjoy my remaining years, yet I made it against all the odds, building my own private therapy clinic and becoming an associated practitioner of a large North West Private Healthcare company.

I believe in living in the now, the present moment, teaching others how they too can recover, improve and regenerate their own internal systems. The first step to vitality and health is to eliminate the subconscious blockages standing in our way.

Today I know how to help you, make those changes that you wish to make, because I have overcome many challenges in my own personal life, physical, emotional and mental level.

Trainer and founder of Hypnotherapy at KICH Hypnotherapy Training, Kent and also BWRT Training in Kent and Norfolk.

My name is Karen Shaw, and I live and work in Plymouth, Devon.  As an experienced Hypnotherapist I have thoroughly enjoyed working with older clients, helping them amongst other things to overcome anxiety, fears and worries about ageing, manage lifestyle changes, as well as helping with pain and palliative care.  Consequently training and qualifying as a practitioner of the Ageing Unplugged® programme has been a natural progression for me, and I look forward to being able to help people achieve their full potential and make the most of their later years.

Having a background in Hypnotherapy is a great advantage, as it means I am experienced in encouraging people to identify their own strengths and resources, and to utilise them to solve problems, alleviate fears, and make the most of life.  Also clients can decide whether or not to have Hypnotherapy, Ageing Unplugged® or a combination of both.

I became interested in psychology while training to become a teacher, and have made a lifelong study of it for both personal and professional interest.  Since leaving the teaching profession I have had various roles in business, and finally made the break to work with my major interest in 2016 when I completed Hypnotherapy training.  In my spare time I enjoy walking, particularly on Dartmoor, along the coast and in the many wonderful woodlands we have in the UK.
