Stress Management

I have many years experience working in both the private and public sector, providing formal cognitive behavioural therapy with individuals who have experienced a variety of mental health issues.

I have completed an MSc in Advanced Psychosocial Interventions and a BSc (Hons) in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Additionally I have undertaken courses in providing supervision for other practitioners and have recently been supervising on the Post Graduate High Intensity IAPT course at Lancaster University.

I am constantly updating my skills and knowledge base by attending conferences and workshops to ensure that my clients receive the most up to date treatment possible. Moreover I undertake regular supervision to ensure that the treatment I provide is within both current guidelines and theoretical approaches.
At present I am also accredited as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with the BABCP.

My name is Chris Gelder,

I am a qualified and registered Lancashire Hypnotherapist based in Leyland, and I can help you achieve effective Positive Personal Change.

Positive Personal Change for you may be to stop smoking, lose some weight, get rid of a phobia that stops you enjoying your life fully, or help you beat the stress and strain of everyday life, or it may be something completely different.
Hypnotherapy is extremely effective for the treatment of these and many more conditions.

Have a look at my web pages as you may be surprised to discover how hypnotherapy can help with many more conditions than those normally associated with Hypnotherapy, and typically these can be as diverse as IBS, PTSD, Panic attacks and increasing self confidence.

The list is long, as anything that stress makes worse, hypnosis can make better.

I look forward to working with you.

Ray C.N.G. Goldy (Reiki Ray) set up The Reiki & Relaxology Centre several years ago, and was one of the first to practise Reiki professionally in the Leigh area.
In 1998, Ray became a Reiki Healer and soon became fascinated with Energy Healing. Since then he has been trained in several forms of complementary therapies and continues to investigate and learn new treatments with which to help other people.

He is often asked, "What will Reiki do for me?" Well, complementary therapies will help YOU to "Fix" the fixable. However, you don't have to be ill, to feel the benefits from having REGULAR TREATments.

Ray is a Qualified Teacher of Reiki & Seichem and runs frequent Courses to attune you to the Elemental Healing Rays of Earth, Water, Wind and Fire.

I look forward to helping you and wish you an Abundance of Love, Light and Reiki Rays.
