About Lauretta Wilson
Hi there, thanks for looking at my site.
As a resigtered psychologist I effectively use cognitive behavioural therapy, neuro linguistic programming, clinical hypnotherapy and solution focused counselling to help you reach your goals such as lifting depression, anxiety, relationships, weight loss, smoking/drug cessation, mind/body infertility program, and much more can be reframed and addressed effectively.
I can certainly help you make the changes that you want to in your life. I have detailed my experience below so you are assured of my competence and experience. However, if you would like an informal chat about how I can help you personally then please don’t hesitate to contact me, no obligation. It is important that whoever you choose to help you at this time is someone you can relate to and talk to easily so a telephone call is essential before you make any decisions.
My extensive training and varied background has allowed me to develop a unique, personal and integrative approach to my work. I have a combination of training, experience and enthusiasm in clinical hypnotherapy, NLP therapy and solution focused therapies as a psychologist which is rare among therapists working in my field today. Combined with that I have worked in London and Australia adding to my experience of working with varied individuals and groups across the globe.
I completed a Masters degree in Psychology in Australia in 1994, gaining registration with the Australian Psychological Registration Board in 1996 after completing 2 years of supervised clinical experience. In 2001, in the UK, I successfully completed diplomas in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Neuro-Linguistic Programming NLP therapy, resulting in accreditation as a Clinical Hypnotherapist and NLP therapy practitioner. I have received extensive training in brief solution-focused counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy.
I am registered with the Health professional council (HPC) in the Uk and AHPRA in Australia the and UK Guild of Hypnotist Examiners (UKGHE). I hold membershipswith the Australian Psychological Society (APS), the British psychological society (BPS), the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy(BACP, the British Register of Advanced Hypnotherapists (BRAH), the National Phobic Society in London (NPS) and the National Register of Practitioners in Smoking Cessation (NRPSC).
I have worked in the voluntary, public and private sectors in London, Surrey and around the UK treating large and varied client groups from the seriously mentally ill, learning disabled, survivors of abuse and trauma to individuals needing assistance with building confidence, public speaking, smoking cessation, weight loss and relationship difficulties, to name a few. I am a consultant for various organisations in the United Kingdom providing psychotherapy, I hold an NHS provider number and comprehensive insurance. I have worked in psychiatry for 4 years in Sydney Australia working with the seriously mentally ill.
As a psychologist my private clinical work in London and Australia embraces an integrative approach offering Clinical Hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming - NLP therapy, brief solution-focused counselling and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I adopt the approach/s which best suit the individual, as this flexibility in approach offers clients the opportunity to optimise the positive benefits from each. Often, I use a combination of therapies.
My qualifications as a psychologist, in clinical hypnotherapy and NLP therapy have given me a thorough understanding of the psychology of human beings, the complex 'problems' we encounter and various methods of assisting individuals to manage life better than they may have previously. My practical experience has allowed me to develop a compassionate but professional approach. These attributes work collectively, enabling me to effectively guide individuals to realise their potential, encouraging the development of clients' independence and strength to make desired life changes for themselves.
Step up to positive change!

Testimonials
'...a couple of years ago I was given a well meaning but very unfortunate prediction by a fortune teller in India. Unfortunately his prediction started to manifest itself in my sub-conscious as a real fear. When I came to see you, I was surprised to feel that in this one session you were able with some simple NLP exercises to make me feel separate from this fear and help me to move forward freely...'
Caroline
'...The power of the mind is incredible, we just need to know how to unleash it, with just one session of NLP with Lauretta I was able to give up a long life fascination of biting my nails. 5 years on and those days of biting my nails to the skin are long gone...'
Micheal
'...I can not even begin to thank you enough for your help in curing my dog phobia. I feel like I have a new lease of life. I went to the heath on Sunday and a dog came up to my leg, though I did feel slightly nervous, I was still able to stand there. When I got back in the car I cried from relief as I didnt realise how severely my phobia had been affecting my life. I used to be tense all day for fear of seeing a loose dog and now I am able to leave the house totally relaxed and at ease....'
Nomi
'...Having tried other methods of giving up smoking unsuccessfully, I cant recommend Lauretta's approach enough. It was as easy as pie. I experienced no cravings whatsoever and instead enjoyed the experience of being a non-smoker. My smoking revolved around my social life but this remained unaffected, and if anything benefitted, as I wasn't spending half my time outside smoking. At work, I no longer feel self-concisions about the smell of cigarettes on my clothes or my breath. I can't recommend Lauretta enough....'
Matt
'...I've been doing the 3 smaller meals plus 2 planned snacks throughout the day, and I've felt so much better for it. There's no longer all this conflict in my mind and my body is grateful to be having smaller meals throughout the day. I've also felt more confident and have been more motivated at work which is brilliant! ...'
Nathalie
'...I cant believe how easily the smoking cessation worked on me! I didn’t believe it would work but someone told me about you and that God I did it! I have not smoked now for a year and it has been easy! You are so lovely too!!...'
Doreen
'...What can I say! I have lost the weight I want and feel great with it! I don’t know what you do but it works. I am telling everyone about you!...'
Hilda
'...I thought long and hard about getting counselling for my husband and I. I felt like a failure but coming to see you changed our relationship and lives forever. We can never feel the same way again, in a good way! Your approach is so effective I would recommend everyone come along to see you! We all have things we should change! After seeing you for relationship counselling, I did your weight program and wow the results have been grand. I am so happy and take your cards with me and hand them out like a messenger of a new amazing religion!! Thank you Lauret!...'
