Pronouns: She/Her

Penny Moon brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her role as an online therapist, drawing on her extensive background as a teacher, special needs professional, and hypno-psychotherapist. With a passion for helping individuals navigate their unique challenges, Penny offers a warm, inclusive, and practical approach to therapy that is deeply rooted in compassion and evidence-based techniques.

Penny’s journey into psychotherapy began after her career in education, where she witnessed the impact of unmet emotional needs on children’s ability to thrive in school. This inspired her to explore alternative approaches to support children and families, leading her to train in hypno-psychotherapy in 1987. Since then, Penny has dedicated her career to helping individuals overcome emotional difficulties, optimise their potential, and move toward a brighter future.

Her approach to therapy is holistic and tailored to each individual’s needs. Whether working with adults or families, Penny focuses on creating a safe, non-judgemental space where her clients can explore their concerns and develop practical strategies for growth. Using guided imagery, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques, she empowers her clients to build resilience, manage stress, and develop healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Penny specialises in working with issues such as anxiety, trauma (including childhood trauma and PTSD), low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and sleep problems. She is particularly skilled in helping clients address stress, fears of abandonment, and personal development goals. Penny’s integrative training allows her to adapt her therapeutic approach to meet the unique needs of each individual, using tools such as neuro-linguistic programming, mindfulness, and compassion-focused therapy.

Whether you're looking to address anxiety, improve your sleep, or overcome the impact of past trauma, Penny is here to guide you every step of the way.

Penny’s unique ability to connect with clients and help them uncover their inner strengths has led many to describe her as a compassionate and insightful therapist. She sees every individual as capable of change and growth, guiding them to create meaningful shifts in their lives.

If you're ready to take the next step in your journey toward well-being, Penny is here to help you discover the tools and strategies you need to thrive.
