Feel Like Yourself Again - Even With Chronic Illness.

Here’s the thing: I get it. I get that you feel exhausted, misunderstood and restricted. I get that simple tasks feel like a struggle, and that the pain sends a wave of worry through your entire body, which makes you feel unsafe even when you’re sitting on your own sofa. I get it…

But feeling constantly down, worried, or low in self-esteem does NOT have to be your reality – you CAN break free from these harmful feelings with the right support!

"Since having life coaching with Puja - I feel with her help I’ve gone from strength to strength in discovering different more healthy ways of thinking and viewing situations which I hadn’t considered before. I’ve learnt a lot about myself on the journey and continue to do so - it’s one of the best things I have ever done."

Medical Secretary - NHS

"Puja provided me with a hypnotherapy recording at the time I was suffering badly at night with anxiety and I had a knee swelling causing me discomfort. I found the track quietened my mind and allowed me to get to sleep and kept me sound asleep for the night. I didn't want to go down the route of constant medication so this was a perfect alternative."

Katie

Ex-Army Senior Intelligence Analyst

“I consulted Puja Ladd in March 2024, after I was involved in a skiing accident which resulted in several complications. After the surgery, there was a lengthy recovery period. During this time, it was very helpful to have a personalised plan, created by Dr Ladd, which helped me focus on my main goal – which was to heal.
Thank you Dr Ladd.”

"Excellent remedy to get me to sleep. I did not believe this sort of arrangement before, but this hypnotherapy audio surprised me! I fell into sleep before the end of this audio almost every night. There are only very few nights I remember when the audio was finished. Well done Dr Ladd."

Consultant - NHS

Imagine if you could find somebody who understands the medical detail of your condition, is a certified coach & has the lived experience of disease - that is me.

You don’t have to explain anymore – I understand the turmoil that illness brings with it.

I help you rebuild a sense of control, confidence, and self-love – so you can actually live your life again, not just manage your symptoms.

Feel calmer in your body with…

Life Coaching and Neuro-Linguistic Programming

Learn which beliefs are limiting you and break them down, using dynamic techniques that allow you to clearly identify unhelpful patterns that are stopping you from standing in your true power.

So far, I am sure your symptoms have caused a cascade of unhelpful beliefs within you. Maybe ‘I can’t do that’ rings a bell. Maybe the symptoms have created fears you never had. Let’s work through your thoughts, feelings and beliefs and start to make real changes to your life.

Let’s start to change your identity from being ‘disease-focussed’ to ‘life-focussed’ and feel empowered as a result!

Meditation

Here’s the thing: our thoughts control our feelings. The thought that you are going to have bad symptoms at work can put you in a terrible mood before you have even got to work; the thought that your condition restricts you can make you feel unworthy. Meditation can help you to recognise where unhelpful thoughts and emotions arise and stop them in their tracks, before the avalanche of negative feelings engulf your body…

Not only does meditation improve our self-awareness, it allows us a moment to pause and calm our dysregulated nervous system. Hopefully that’s less stress hormone circulating through your body!

Let’s gain greater control of our minds today, and see the beautiful change that makes to our lives now.

Hypnotherapy

No, this is NOT what you hear horror stories about! Hypnotherapy is one of the most powerful techniques I have come across as it works on the subconscious mind (the part of our mind that houses our operating systems) to bring about real change. But it isn’t only me that thinks highly of hypnotherapy: the Royal College of Psychiatrists – the group mostly all psychiatrists in the UK are part of – advise that hypnotherapy can be used in the treatment of depression, anxiety and pain amongst many other things (https://www.rcpsych.ac.uk/mental-health/treatments-and-wellbeing/hypnosis-and-hypnotherapy).

If you’re ready to feel more in control, more at ease, and more like yourself again – let’s talk.
