About Lindsay

Helping others to help themselves....

Born Northumberland
Married with an extended family, including grandchildren now, Lindsay has been living back in the North East for the last 40 years. Having led a very active business and family life,  he was unable to contemplate full retirement and with a Hypnotherapy background connection was inspired and motivated to look further into Alternative Complementary Therapies. The first four of these are recognised by the NHS as alternatives or compatably harmonious with existing medical intervention, specifically, Hypnotherapy NLP - CBT - TFT - EFT.

Inspired by ...
Norman MacVean Heron Dental Surgeon LDS RCS - Medical & Dental Hypnotherapist [deceased 1910-1995] who within his practice used the resource of Clinical Hypnosis Therapy for the benefit and therapeutic comfort of his patients. For some 40 years he provided this Alternative Complimentary Therapy, an alternative to classical medical intervention, as a means of delivering anxiety and pain free treatment without need for anaesthetic involvement, also offering pain free injections [needle phobia], providing enhanced benefits of post operative drug and side effect free, swifter recovery.

Motivated by...
A personal recognition whilst in business, of a need to remain in control during particularly stressfull business times, Norman Heron’s colleague and buddy Geoff Graham Dental Surgeon BDS [deceased 1932 - 2006] formerly of Whickham, was to compound an acceptance by Lindsay that he would benefit from ‘ego strengthening’ and stress related therapy. Geoff was to teach Lindsay the invaluable technique of Self-Hypnosis. As a Medical Hypnotherapist of some renown Geoff Graham BDS also used the state of Hypnosis throughout his Dental career and became an International Authority with reputation as a teacher of Hypnotic techniques lecturing to medical professionals across North America and Australia, in Brazil, Moscow, Singapore, Indonesia, Norway, Sweden, France , Germany Holland and Belgium. He was President of the North East Medical & Dental Hypnosis Society and involved with a number of equivalent American  Societies.  Author of ’How to Change Your Life’ Published by Real Options Press 1990, also ’How to become the parent you never had’  It’s a bit of a mouthful’  and ’The happy neurotic’. Lindsay was to benefit from his readings and teachings over the years. Geoff practised Hypnotherapy for over 35 years, helping thousands of people to loose weight, build confidence, tackle phobias, combat stress and STOP SMOKING as well as with his own patients, his Dental practices in Whickham.
