About Me
I’m Sarah Moore
I’m passionate about helping women to feel more empowered, rediscover their life’s purpose and live their best lives.
I’m here for those times in your life when things are troubling you, overwhelming you, and when you’re having difficulty expressing your true emotions to those around you.
Whether you’re anxious, burnt out, stressed, or struggling with finding courage, confidence, or a good body image…whatever’s holding you back, my balanced life therapies can help.
Qualified in a range of hypnotherapy techniques, and being a Bach Foundation Registered Practitioner, I can draw on a range of techniques to find the right solution for you.
I work in a holistic, unique, and powerful way to enable you to understand the underlying issues, change your mindset, and make lasting changes so that you can take back control, step back into your life with renewed resilience, calm, and purpose, and move forward with confidence and positivity.
I'm a mum to 3 wonderful sons who are growing up much too fast, and I love spending time with them, my lovely husband Trevor and my gorgeous little dog (who you may even meet at my therapy room if you're lucky!)
Before becoming a full-time therapist, I worked in Primary education for 20 years, first as a class teacher in a wonderfully diverse and exciting inner-city primary school, then as a school manager with responsibility for inclusion and behaviour policies. I then became a teaching consultant, advising teachers and schools about their maths and English curriculums. When it became clear that the eldest of my 3 sons, who was diagnosed with autism at age 6, was struggling at school, I took a break from education to focus on my family. I had been using Bach Flower Essences since I was a teenager when I was given my first bottle of Rescue Remedy to help with my exam stress, but it was whilst my children were little that my love for Bach Flower Essences grew, and I began to study them more seriously and began learning to become a practitioner with The Bach Centre in Oxfordshire.
At this time, I also began training to become a counsellor and started a course that happened to include hypnotherapy as an addition to counselling skills. I enjoyed the hypnotherapy so much that I chose to make this my focus, and never completed the rest of the counselling qualification! Since then, I have built my business as a therapist, adding lots of interesting tools and techniques to my belt as I go along.
Since leaving my career in Education, I have worked for a local charity, running 'Insider's Guide' courses for parents of children with SEND. Over the 13 years that I have been running these courses, I have had the pleasure of meeting with and supporting hundreds of amazing parents, helping them to navigate the stressful, busy and sometimes confusing world of bringing up a child with additional needs. For more information on the Insider's Guide courses in Calderdale, please contact me, or speak to the friendly staff at Unique Ways on 01422 343090.

How I work
In-Person sessions
I have a very comfortable and private therapy room at the historic Number 2 Wharf building at the canal basin in Sowerby Bridge, where you can come and see me for your sessions if you are local to me in Calderdale’s Happy Valley.
There are regular buses through Sowerby Bridge from Halifax and there is ample free parking on site.
If you have somebody bringing you to your sessions, they will find a warm welcome in one of our many welcoming local cafes or pubs whilst they wait for your session to finish. Please note that my therapy room is on the first floor, up one flight of stairs.
Online Sessions
I regularly work with clients around the country and beyond via Zoom, and ensure your safety by creating a new link for each session, which I email to you in advance.
To benefit fully from Zoom hypnotherapy sessions, you will need an excellent Wi-Fi /broadband connection, and will need to be working using a laptop or similar, so that you can rest and relax fully (without having to hold a device in your hands) and still see me and be seen by me as you rest and relax. I will need to be able to see your body and face from the waist up, so that I can see your breathing and facial expressions.
I find that conducting hypnotherapy sessions over Zoom has just as much power as in-person sessions and can on occasion be even more beneficial for the client, as they can relax in their own home, and the relaxation can continue after the session is over.
Bach Flower Therapy sessions may also be conducted over Zoom or by phone, and your essence will be posted to you for a small postage fee.
