About Cliona

Hello, my name is Cliona Vaughan, and I am a highly trained and experienced Counsellor and Solution Focused Hypnotherapist.

I am deeply passionate about helping people connect with themselves, others, and the world in a meaningful and fulfilling way.

I hold qualifications from the University of Wales, Newport, the Clifton Practice of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, and The Clinical Hypnotherapy School. I have also trained with Melissa Tiers, founder of The Centre For Integrative Hypnosis and with Shane Haron and his Somatic Release Method. My approach is client-centred, ensuring you feel heard and validated while working toward positive, lasting change. Using proven techniques, I aim to empower you to take control of your life.

I offer both online and face-to-face sessions, and I am fully insured with an Advanced DBS certificate.

I am also a registered member of the following professional organizations:

• The British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP)
• National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH)

With over 14 years of experience working with children, young people, and adults, I am genuinely passionate about my work. Helping others to find happiness and to reach their highest potential brings me immense joy. I have had the privilege of working with organizations such as MIND, Age Concern, and in school settings through Place2Be, Caerphilly Council, and Monmouthshire and Cwmbran youth services. Currently, I run a busy private practice.

As a member of the BACP, I adhere to its strict code of ethics. I am committed to continuous professional development, regularly attending training and staying up-to-date with the latest research.

With a compassionate, person-centred, and solution-focused approach, I will support you on your journey toward a more balanced and fulfilling life, helping you regain control and rediscover the best version of yourself.
