Linda Witchell

Linda Witchell is an experienced hypnotherapist, counsellor, coach, supervisor and trainer who is passionate about helping people to create meaningful change in their lives. With a background as a registered nurse, hospital manager, and educator in the NHS and overseas healthcare, Linda brings over four decades of compassionate, ethical and evidence-informed care to her work.

She is the founder of Awaken the Change, a professional, mainly online practice exploring solutions to problems with hypnotherapy, counselling and personal development support across the UK and internationally. Her areas of expertise include helping with stress and anxiety, bereavement and loss (including pet loss), mindset coaching, exam and language learning success.

Linda is a published author and public speaker, regularly presenting at conferences and supervising and mentoring other therapists in their journey of growth and development. Her teaching style is down-to-earth, engaging and always grounded in research and life's experiences.

As a great animal lover, Linda has a beloved little dog, so she understands the bond that we share with our pets. Her empathy and insight into the grief of pet loss have inspired her to write accessible, practical resources to support others through difficult times.

When Linda is not writing or helping others in her business, she enjoys travelling and meeting new people from all walks of life as she considers she is on a life-long journey of learning.
