IMMERSE. The “I” of the DRIVE Model

To truly shift anxious patterns, we can’t just think differently, we have to immerse ourselves in new experiences that teach the body and mind a calmer way to respond.

In this stage, we step gently into supportive environments, grounding techniques, and achievable challenges that build confidence one moment at a time.

It’s not about forcing courage.
It’s about soaking in calm, safety, and self-belief until they become your new baseline.

✨ Small steps.
✨ Repeated experiences.
✨ A growing sense of “I can do this.”

This is where transformation begins. 💚

REFRAME; the “R” in my DRIVE model for anxious drivers.

When anxiety takes over, your mind can become a storyteller… and not always a kind one. Your inner critic goes into overdrive leaving you anxious and fearful of making a mistake.

Reframe is about gently challenging those automatic thoughts and creating space for new, calmer possibilities. Driving anxiety is rarely about lack of driving skill, it’s often a negative feedback loop which has gained momentum causing you to become stuck.

Reframing isn’t pretending or replacing a negative thought with a helpful one. It’s about a gentle shift over time with practice and therapy together.

It’s choosing a perspective that supports you, steadies you, and brings you back into your power with strong powerful visualisation under hypnosis and practice.

A small shift in thought can become a big shift in confidence and it starts with your subconscious mind. Simply thinking more positively will not change things, it’s about a shift on a deeper level so you believe in yourself and your capabilities.

For learner drivers and licence holders, this model is a proven step by step coaching method that works! Using hypnotherapy, CBT, positive visualisation, NLP and driving practice tailored to you personally. For over 20 years I’ve been working on what works as a driving instructor and hypnotherapist for the last 4 years. Check out my google and facebook reviews and see for yourself.

The first step in the DRIVE™ method is De-Stress, because your body needs to feel safe before your mind can feel confident.

When driving anxiety shows up, the nervous system often goes straight into fight-or-flight.
De-Stress is all about helping your body step out of that state so you can think clearly, breathe steady, and stay present on the road.

In this stage, we focus on:
• calming the body through breath and grounding
• relaxing the muscles that hold tension
• soothing the mind with simple, repeatable techniques
• creating a sense of safety before you even start the car

When your body feels regulated, the rest of the DRIVE™ journey becomes easier.
De-Stress is the foundation, it prepares your whole system to move from fear into calm, confidence, and control.

Introducing… The DRIVE Method™

Over the years of helping clients overcome driving anxiety, I’ve noticed something important:

Confidence isn’t built in one moment, it’s built through a gentle mind–body process.

That’s why I use my signature framework, The DRIVE Method™ to support anyone who feels overwhelmed behind the wheel.

D – De-stress the body
Soften tension, slow the breath, calm the nervous system.

R – Reframe the mind
Shift anxious thoughts into steady, supportive truths.

I – Immerse in calm confidence
Use visualisation and grounding to create a felt sense of safety.

V – Venture gradually
Take small, manageable steps that rebuild trust in yourself.

E – Empower your progress
Notice your growth, celebrate the wins, and strengthen confidence over time.

This is the gentle, therapeutic pathway I use every day in my work, a calm, structured way to help you feel safe, steady, and in control on the road and within yourself.

If driving anxiety holds you back, feel free to reach out for a chat to see how the DRIVE method could empower you to driving confidence.

What’s all that about? You may be asking….

It’s counselling placement day today and this is what I’m taking in my tool box. I knew it wouldn’t be long until being creative featured in my work. This type of work also lends itself to coaching for personal growth and development.

Therapeutic art group coaching sessions will be available at Green Tree in the new year. Come and join me, I’m open to enquires for the new year programme.

Everyday brings something new to explore and learn which is why I feel so blessed in my work🌈🙌

Over twenty years ago, I decided that my work life needed to be purposeful and reflect my inner values. I went self employed after having a secure, well paid salaried job with a pension.

In the past, I’ve been in that job, the one where I was so unhappy, (local government as an accounts clerk) that I fell into because of circumstances and lack of other opportunities in my locality. I know what it is to not fit in at work and feel trapped by my lot - 10 years later things changed…….🎉. Those circumstances gave me the opportunity to learn many skills and showed me aspects of myself that I could take forward, training for example. Even being somewhere where I didn’t fit was a valuable experience in the end but the fact of the matter was - I had to do something radical! Move, change and retrain and invest in me….

My work now is my offering to the world based on what I’ve learned about myself and allows me to feel like I’m making a difference, even if it’s just a tiny step in the right direction every day.

I hope that you are having a peaceful day staying true to yourself, doing you in your way. 💚💚

Grief doesn’t follow rules.
Some days feel heavy, some feel numb, and some bring unexpected peace.

There’s no “right” way to grieve, only your way.
Be gentle with yourself, take it moment by moment. Honour yourself and your journey through grief 💚

✨ How the Wounded Inner Child Shows Up in Adulthood ✨

Sometimes the pain we feel as adults isn’t new, it’s an echo of an old wound from childhood that never truly healed.

Your inner child may be showing up when you…
🌧️ Struggle with rejection or feel “not good enough.”
🌧️ People-please to avoid conflict or disapproval.
🌧️ Feel anxious when others are upset, even if it’s not about you.
🌧️ Find it hard to trust, open up, or set boundaries.
🌧️ Feel an emptiness you can’t quite name.

Healing begins when we listen to that younger part of ourselves, the one who needed comfort, safety, and love. 💛

You don’t have to face this alone. Hypnotherapy can help you reconnect with your inner child in a compassionate, healing way.

🌈 It’s never too late to give yourself what you once needed.
