Hello, my name is Ch'maine Robinson, a qualified Counsellor/psychotherapist and registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). I am an accredited member of The National Counselling & Psychotherapy society, and Hypnotherapy Society (NCS, HYS). I trained in counselling and psychotherapy after having had my own experiences and realising how great the benefits can be. I always aim to develop a relationship of mutual trust, respect & agency.
About me and my practice
I am a Manchester based Psychotherapist & Hypnotherapist, with a private practice, located in Royal Exchange Building.
With guidance, affective therapy reduces confusion and creates clarity, allowing you to make effective decisions leading to positive changes in your thoughts, attitudes and behaviours.
Therapy sessions are not for advice-giving. They provide a space to talk, explore, sound things out and guide in coming to personal decisions and realisations. The aim is to enable you to feel more equipped to make your own choices, feel able to reach your own decisions and go forward with a greater sense of clarity and well-being.
Experience
Psychotherapy
I am experienced in working with areas such as GAD, anxiety, trauma, low-self-esteem, shame, grief, depression, attachments, dissociation, personality disorders, family issues, stress, phobias, separation, trauma, PTSD and more.
Benefits of Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a complementary and holistic approach in which hypnosis is used to create a state of focused attention and increased suggestibility during which positive suggestions and guided imagery are used to help individuals deal with a variety of concerns and issues. These can include weight management, smoking, anxiety, phobias and more. Our subconscious is powerful and hypnotherapy can reach areas of the mind that hold deep routed beliefs and habits in order to bring about change for the better.

Additional Information
Vision Board Classes
Vision boards are wonderful tools used to help clarify, concentrate, and maintain focus on specific life goals. Literally, a vision board is any sort of board on which you display images that represent whatever you want to be, do, or have in your life. Guidance is given on how to focus your attention and connect images in a meaningful way according to your goals.
Journaling/ creative writing classes
Much of the research on writing and happiness deals with expressive writing, or jotting down what you think and how you feel. Even blogging undoubtedly affords similar benefits to private expressive writing in terms of therapeutic value. Expressive writing has also been linked to improved mood, well-being, and reduced stress levels for those who do it regularly.
