About me

My name is Leo!

I live and work in London. I qualified as a clinical hypnotherapist with FreeMind Therapy in 2016 and jumped straight into practice. The subsequent years have given me considerable experience in traditional hypnotherapy: my clients were all ages and backgrounds and I saw a wide range of clinical presentations. I have led workshops in corporate and charitable settings, been interviewed on BBC Radio 5 Live and have a strong theoretical background in trauma and mental health. I also hold qualifications in counselling skills and yoga teaching.

In 2017, I set up Both Feet on the Ground as a vehicle for my ambitious, socially driven therapy work. In 2021, I drew on all my field experience to create a service to address what I see as one of the greatest health crises of our time: addiction to nicotine. I am passionate about helping smokers and vapers quit for good so they can live long, happy lives doing things that are important to them and having more money to do them with.

I have offices in Fleet Street, Central London and Camden, North London and also work with clients all over the world remotely over Zoom or Skype.

"In comparison to going cold turkey in the past, this was a lot easier… I was fully in control. After 2 months being ciggy free, I have absolutely no desire to smoke. Not a single thought it urge pops into my head. I can confidently say I will never touch another ciggy ever again."

"I would 100% reccomend Leo, I really would. It’s the best thing that I ever did! I just wish I knew about him sooner. I like the way he talks to you, he’s on the same level as you, he doesn’t try and dictate to you. He listens to you, and that’s the most important thing – he listens to your needs and picks up on what you need. It makes it personal, it makes it feel like he’s 100% behind you. He doesn’t judge you, there’s none of that – he just wants to help you. I definitely think he’s found his niche in life and I would definitely, 100% reccomend him."

"For anybody that is looking to stop smoking and has tried before and may have struggled, I really, really reccomend Leo and the service that he provides. It honestly does work, it works! I’m a non-smoker, I’m so grateful. He’s an amazing practitioner, and I couldn’t reccomend him more. So if you want to be free of smoking then go for it, do it! You won’t regret it!"

"I definitely think you should give hypnotherapy with Leo a chance! For me, I think the thought of how smoking programs you to get in to your life is something that you really need to give consideration to and that’s something that this whole process helps you to do!"
