HELLO! I'M CHARYA

Prior to being a coach and hypnotherapist, my background was in teaching, social work, and group leadership. I have had my current business for over twenty seven years. It's my life passion to help my clients let go of emotional eating finally and permanently, stop people-pleasing and step into their power.
​​
My personal journey to happiness and self-fulfilment began when I was in my twenties. I was depressed, withdrawn, isolated, and deeply unhappy. Having been severely anorexic and then bulimic and an emotional, compulsive eater for years, I was desperately searching for something that would help me overcome my problems and discover how I could live a happy, healthy, peaceful and confident life on my own terms. How I could give up the endless dieting and body hatred, the continuous need to please everyone - except myself! However, I admit I put off really doing anything about my issues for years because every time I tried to fix myself, self-doubt, anxiety and the fear of failing - again! - got in my way and I would end up just going round and round in circles getting nowhere and feeling worse than ever.
 
Eventually I got it that the 'do it myself' approach didn't work because all the unconscious blocks that were in my way just kept on doing their job - blocking me - and without help I would never untangle the puzzle of why, however hard I tried, I just couldn't solve my endless eating struggles, feel great about myself and live a life I loved.

So I took a bold leap, jumped into therapy and dedicated myself to finding out all I could about who I really was, who I could be, and how I could create the life I secretly dreamed of - but didn't dare to voice for fear of disappointing myself, others - and what other people might say!.

 

I explored, experienced and trained in various kinds of personal growth work and individual and group therapy. and through deep, profound - and sometimes very challenging therapeutic processes - I healed the wounds that kept me stuck in pain and I changed my life for good.

​

Eventually, I took on the assistant director role in a therapeutic community in London for a few years and then spent time travelling and working in Europe as a coach and therapeutic group leader. I returned to London in 1996 and set up a successful coaching practice and continued to train extensively adding Hypnotherapy, Performance Coaching, NLP, Master Coaching, Rapid Transformational Therapy, Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy, and Integrative Nutrition Health Coaching into my skill set.

Being a coach and hypnotherapist has not only fulfilled me, it has also given me the freedom to live a life I love and to do some some crazy things along the way - like trekking on the Great Wall of China, fire walking, working in a refugee camp, climbing mountains, and I even piloted a plane for my 75th birthday and published my first book for my 76th!

Since 2008 I've been living my wildest dreams and working from my home by the sea here in Newquay. Cornwall. UK. and worldwide on-line.
