About Me
I am a three time Hypnobirthing mummy, and Clinical Hypnotherapist based just outside the city of Oxford, but I go whereever my works takes me. I currently offer group courses in Oxford but regularly run private 1:1s in Witney, Thame, Banbury, Brackley, Brecon, Bicester, Wantage, Faringdon, High Wycombe and more. All postcodes are considered so do ask!
I have experience and training in several types of Hypnobirthing and have 3 very happy hypnobabies! As well as delivering the highly regarded KG Hypnobirthing course, I offer hypnotherapy for fertility, morning sickness, antenatal & postnatal services and have great success turning Breech babies with Hypnotherapy.
Before hypnotherapy, my years of scientific learning (biology & psychology) lead me to a long and rewarding career in the emergency services. I was able to support people who were often going through the most stressful & challenging times in their lives and am delighted to continue supporting people as a Hypnotherapist. Hypnobirthing is one of my greatest pleasures as a therapist. Having a baby is without doubt a pivotal time in your life, and Hypnobirthing brings invaluable calm and confidence to it. Your memories of your babies birth will last you a lifetime, so why not make them positive?
Why KG Hypnobirthing?
I consider myself very lucky to have discovered Hypnobirthing before starting my family. I have had 3 hypnobirths and each was a wonderful and unique experience, though not one went entirely to plan!
I consider myself even luckier to have found KG Hypnobirthing before the birth of my third child. KG Hypnobirthing (in my opinion) is the complete package, because it is not just Hypnobirthing, nor is it just another antenal class. KG provides learners with an invaluable insight into the mind-body connection, nurtures confidence & empowerment and is highly educational. A true eye opener.
Testimonials
Eliot's hypnobirth was totally different to the exhaustion and terror I had felt throughout the brith of my first child. With Steph & Oxford Hypnobirhting I felt a million dollars! I got my natural hypnobirth and my experience just shows how different two births can be. The power of the mind is a wonderful thing and finding someone like Steph, who can show you how to use it is equally as wonderful in my book!
Emma - Abingdon
Hypnobirthing allowed me to go with the flow of pregnancy and birth. It put me in a positive, calm and accepting state of mind, which was so important as it was my first pregnancy and I didn’t know what to expect from labour. Steph worked with me in the final months of my pregnancy, guiding me through the hypnobirthing exercises and what I might expect in labour. Her gentle, positive and loving manner was so important in making me feel excited and relaxed about the last stages of my pregnancy and my labour.
My partner was great at helping me through the hypnobirthing exercises, which we used during labour. During labour, the element of time disappeared, with my partner’s voice leading me through contractions calmly and confidently. I just kept telling myself to surrender, that each contraction was nudging my baby closer to us. I visualised water flowing downwards, and flowers opening. My labour was relatively short for a first timer, and the midwife was surprised at how calm the birth was with a 3 minute gap between delivering my baby’s head and his body - which was the easiest part! My partner says I just breathed the baby out…which is a beautiful way to think of our boy arriving into this world.

Having been in a birthing room before with my sister, this was my second experience! I felt like hypnobirthing prepped me with tools to go to, making me more confident and more efficient during my partner’s labour. Meeting with Steph taught me that a calm environment is essential for this process. I know the process helped my partner, as her labour was just over 8 hours, but in real time it felt like 5 minutes when we look back at it. Thank you Steph!
Jerome - Zambia
I found Steph's hypnobirthing course to be educational, positive and inspirational! The deep relaxation techniques and understanding how they can add benefit were very useful to me, particularly prior to the birth of my son. I would recommend Steph's course to anyone who wishes to broaden their understanding of pregnancy and childbirth and who needs some support to relax and take time to consider and plan how they wish to prepare for the birth of their baby.

I maintain a delightfully flexible approach for my clients so 1:1 course dates/times can be booked according to your needs. Advance booking is always recommended but equally I am always thrilled to squeeze in last minute requests. Early booking discounts are available for group courses. See dates below!
Oxford Hypnobirthing group courses are currently available near Oxford City or create a private group course with your nct friends! Private 1:1 Oxford Hypnobirthing classes are available all across the region, throughout Oxford, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire & Northamptonshire.
I recommed clients book sessions in to begin anytime after 20 weeks. But it’s never too late! That said, 25-35 weeks seems to be the most popular time & it allows for plenty of practice.
Condensed packages are available for repeat KG hypnobirthing mothers who just want a refresher, cesarean section specific courses and more.
