THIS IS WHO I AM...
Ana Martinez
Master Hypnotherapist | Master NLP Practitioner
Mind Coach
This is my story
Initially, I was just curious about NLP and hypnosis but after I experienced amazing recovery from fear and anxiety using simple hypnosis and NLP tools, I went on to learn and implement these skills in my private practice. I am a Master Hypnotherapist, Master Neuro-Linguistic Programmer and Mind Coach. I had the privilege to be trained by the internationally renowned Alistair Horscroft (“the therapist’s therapist”) and his team at the Mind Academy. I work with clients like you who are driven and committed to making long lasting changes and my goal is to help you thrive in all areas of your life.
I studied a bachelor’s degree in Dentistry and worked within the public and private health care industry before deciding to do something different to that which had become my comfort zone. I decided to start a Master of Health Services Management whilst raising my newborn girl and 5-year-old son, finishing a few years later.
Besides my profession as a hypnotherapist, Master NLP Practitioner, Mind Trainer and Success Coach, I enjoy a good workout that breaks a sweat and gets the blood pumping. I am convinced that to live our best life we need to be healthy, looking after our body, mind and spirit. I also practice Aikido, a Japanese Martial Art based on the fluidity and harmony of energy and motion. I truly enjoy empowering my clients to exercise their full potential to set out and execute their plans to achieve whatever goals they are reaching for.
How I can help you
Have you lost touch with your inner creative self?
Here’s the good news: It doesn’t have to be that way; you have all the resources within you to allow you to design your life, take purposeful action and focus on what you want as opposed to what you don’t want or have.
I understand where you’re coming from, because I’ve been there, letting my life pass by without actually living to my full potential. I was chronically overworked, sleep deprived and mentally stuck thinking of all the things I should, could, would or must do without actually doing them. After many years of soul searching and some therapy, I came across Neuro- Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnosis and in a short time, I was able to let go of my anxiety, negative emotions and beliefs and start living my life under my terms and make my dreams a reality. I became so passionate about Neuro-Linguistic Programming that I went and formalised my learning, trusted myself, and worked on my problems. I practice what I preach; I still have my own coach because I know that the more I grow the better I can serve my clients.
It doesn’t matter what your wake up call is. It could be sickness, burnout, addiction, the loss of a loved one, the ending of a relationship, losing your job, or whatever your entry point is, embrace it.
I will empower you to bring confidence back into your life so you feel in control instead of overwhelmed. I will show you that there are many tools in your inner tool box to help you get back on track and start living your life by your own rules and not everyone else’s.
Let me help you connect the dots and achieve whatever it is you want to achieve.
What I believe in
I believe:
- That letting it “happen” is not an option
- That we become what we think about
- That our most priceless possessions are given to us for free
- That life is meant to be abundant
- That it is the little things we do every day that will get us there
- That we are our best when we look after our body, mind and soul
- That gratitude is the healthiest of all human emotions
- That your best life imaginable is waiting for you
- That greatness is a series of small things done well
- That if you master your habits, you can master your life.
