About Me

Edward W Bazely, I have an (honours) degree in psychology (OU) and (honours) diploma in hypnotherapy (EICH).
I am an Accredited member of the Association for Professional Hypnosis and Psychotherapy(which enables me to supervise other therapists).
I also belong to the National Council of Psychotherapists and the British Psychological Society. In the interests of simplicity all these worthies are on the links page of my website along with other sites of potential interest.
I have been interested in the power of the human mind since the 60s when I was a bass guitarist and flower power was going to change the world. Since then I have travelled extensivelyand have been fascinated by the powerful effects belief systems have on people's wellbeing. I have managed (seemingly without trying) to acquire life experience in volumes which all seemed to make sense when I studied under Terry Watts at the EICH.

Like Roy Hunter (one of the USA's most respected hypnotherapists) I think of Hypnotherapy as an art form and by association myself as an artist. Hardly a day goes by that I don't find myself thrilled and excited by the possibilities for self-improvement and the empowerment of the individual. I am also certified in Mind-Body and Emotional Freedom Therapies and think myself honoured and privileged to work in such an exciting and relativity new fields with their implications for stress related symptoms such as IBS and panic attacks.
Of course the term 'new' is a little ironic if you think of the soothsayer or the shaman/medicine man in early societies, or the image of a lone searcher gazing into a sunset looking for solutions to problems that were unsettling the tribe, or even the dream temples of the ancient Egyptians and Greeks with their soothsayers and priests helping people to use the intuition of their subconscious minds to solve everyday problems. Intuitive mind-power has been around for a long time.
