Mental Health Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist & Author
My name is Angelo Soteriou and I am a professional Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist & Published Author specialising in the mental health sector.
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a type of ‘talking therapy’, that combines the use of psychotherapy with hypnosis.
Author of MINDPLAN: A Solution-Focused Approach to Mental Wellness
I studied at The Clifton Practice which is a UK and international hypnotherapy training body providing a Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma (HPD) for the modern hypnotherapist and is accredited by the Northern Council for Further Education (NCFE) as having measurable learning outcomes that have been benchmarked at Level 4 (using Ofqual’s Qualification and Credit Framework (QCF) level descriptors).
NCFE is recognised as an Awarding Organisation by the qualification regulators for England, Wales and Northern Ireland and NCFE accreditation gives assurance that the content of the hypnotherapy training is of a high standard and meets the rigorous requirements of a national awarding organisation. Recognised as rigorous, practical and the most up to date course, taking into consideration the latest research in neuroscience in combination with the very best of Solution-Focused techniques, Brain Based Therapy, CBT and NLP.
I hold a PhD Doctorate (h.c.) in Hypnosis Therapy; Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD); Diploma in Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy (DSFH) and a General Qualification in Hypnotherapy Practice (GQHP).
I am a registered member of the Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH); a member of the Institute of Health Management (MIHM); a registered member of The Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) which is the UK regulator for complementary health practitioners and set up with government support and funding in 2008 with the sole purpose to protect the public (CNHC's register is approved as an Accredited Register by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care (PSA) and the government recommends that people use only an accredited register when consulting a health practitioner who is not regulated by law); and a registered member of The National Council for Hypnotherapy (MCNH) which is the UK’s leading not-for-profit Hypnotherapy Professional Association.
I am also accredited by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC) and registered with the General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR) which are the UK’s largest and most prominent organisations within the field of Hypnotherapy and together present an exemplary model for the simultaneous protection of the public and the provision of practitioner credibility and services.
I am fully insured against Malpractice/Professional Liability, Public Liability and Products Liability and am able to provide a copy of my certificate of insurance upon request.
I chose to specialise in the mental health sector because I know the impact mental health disorders have on our daily lives and I am passionate about playing my part to help.
Changing people's lives is the most rewarding thing I can think of and I truly believe that the Solution-Focused approach is the most successful way of doing so.
