Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.
Sometimes the first step towards change isn't trying harder. It's understanding yourself differently, creating new choices and finding ways forward that genuinely fit for you. Through coaching, clinical hypnotherapy and holistic approaches, I can help you with this. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, questioning yourself, navigating a change in direction, trying to understand recurring patterns, or simply wanting to feel more like yourself, our work begins with curiosity rather than judgement. You might be here because...
Your reasons for coming to coaching or hypnotherapy don't have to fit neatly into a category. You might simply recognise yourself in one or more of these: Feeling overwhelmed Your mind feels busy, you're struggling to switch off, or everything feels like too much. Questioning yourself You're dealing with self-doubt, low confidence or a tendency to be harder on yourself than you are on others. Trying to change a pattern You know what you'd like to do differently, but understanding it hasn't necessarily made it easier to change. Exploring ADHD You're wondering whether ADHD might help explain some of your experiences. At a crossroads or navigating change You're thinking about what's next and want to work out what feels right for you, or you have a sense the way you've been doing things no longer fits. Wanting to understand yourself There isn't necessarily one problem to solve. You simply want greater self-awareness and a different perspective. You don't have to know where to start. We can work that out together. 
My approach
An integrated approach, shaped around you I don't believe in trying to fit you into a particular process or approach. Our work is shaped around you — your experiences, your goals, your patterns and what you need at this point in your life. Coaching Space to gain clarity, explore possibilities, identify what matters and turn insight into action. Coaching also allows us to consciously consolidate shifts initiated through hypnotherapy. Clinical hypnotherapy A way of working with habits, emotional responses and deeper subconscious patterns, beliefs and behaviours, alongside your conscious understanding. Holistic perspectives Where appropriate, we can consider the wider picture: mind, emotions, body and the deeper aspects of your experience. Depending on what you're working through, we might focus on conscious insight and practical strategies. We might work with thoughts, emotions and behaviours. We might explore patterns and beliefs that sit beneath conscious awareness through hypnotherapy, or we may make space for a more holistic exploration of the relationship between mind, emotions, body and soul. Most likely, we will combine these approaches in a way best tailored to you. The aim isn't simply to understand why you are the way you are. It's to use that understanding to make choices about how you want to live, respond and move forward. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel safe, seen, and supported, not rushed or 'fixed'. What we can explore
You may come with a specific goal, or you may simply know that something needs to change. Either is a perfectly good place to begin. We might work with:
Coaching & Clinical Hypnotherapy
Coaching and clinical hypnotherapy offer different ways of working, and can complement each other beautifully. Coaching can help you understand where you are, clarify what matters and explore what you want to do next. Clinical hypnotherapy can help you explore and work with deeper, subconscious patterns and beliefs that sit outside your conscious awareness. Sometimes coaching is the right place to start. Sometimes hypnotherapy is more appropriate. Often the best approach is a combination of both. Explore Coaching Explore Clinical Hypnotherapy ADHD
Understanding yourself differently If you have ADHD, suspect you may have ADHD, or are beginning to explore whether it might explain some of your experiences, you may have spent a lot of time wondering why certain things seem harder than they should. ADHD can affect much more than attention or organisation. It can influence motivation, overwhelm, habits, confidence, self-belief and emotional wellbeing, and sometimes leave you feeling like you should be coping better than you are. Understanding how ADHD may be influencing the way you think, feel and respond can be a valuable starting point. Together, we can explore your individual patterns, what you need, and approaches that feel supportive and workable for you. Sometimes understanding yourself differently can change the way you understand your whole life. Explore ADHD |
Laurenne Di Salvo - Clinical Hypnotherapist, Accredited Coach (PCC), and Facilitator
Meet Laurenne
A thoughtful approach to meaningful change I'm Laurenne Di Salvo — a Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Clinical Hypnotherapist and Facilitator. I've spent more than 25 years working in coaching, learning and development, hypnotherapy and professional development. I bring together coaching, clinical hypnotherapy and holistic approaches in the way I work, with the belief that meaningful change isn't about fixing what's 'wrong' with you. It's about understanding yourself more deeply in order to create choices. I'm warm, intuitive, grounded, compassionate, and deeply human. I also bring evidence based approaches, structure, challenge and practical perspectives when useful. You're the expert in your own experience. My role is to help you make sense of what's happening, recognise what you need, and explore the choices available to you. More about Laurenne A Different way of thinking about change
Sometimes change and transformation comes through discovering who you can be. Other times it's a process of remembering who you are. Usually it's both. Whether you're coming for coaching, clinical hypnotherapy, ADHD support, or a more holistic exploration, the work begins with where you are now. There is no prescribed version of who you need to become. The question is: what becomes possible when you understand yourself more deeply? Ready to explore?
You don't need to know exactly what you need before you get in touch. A complimentary 15-minute conversation is a chance to talk about what's bringing you here, ask questions and see whether working together feels like the right fit. You can then choose to go ahead, or not. Welcome to Harvest's space
A calm, welcoming space to pause, reflect and explore — in person or virtually.

Healing - A process of zooming in and zooming out, and repeat...
When we think about healing, we might wish there was a magic wand (sadly there isn’t). However, we know that healing is a process. There are many ways we can describe this process, and in fact many ways we can experience it. One way to think about healing is as a deliberate process of zooming in and zooming out. This allows us multiple perspectives to support insights, learning and change. Click here continue reading. |
Your value is not what you do. Your value is who you are.
Your value is not what you do. Your value is who you are, and that is wonderful news, as your value is innate. In our desire to be of value, many of us link our value very closely with what we do, what qualifications we have, our job titles, our roles, and the list goes on. This can leave us either questioning our value, or constantly seeking the next qualification, enrolling in the next course, feeling we need to do more, we need to get promoted, or we need to act to demonstrate our value. This can be exhausting and in fact detract from our real value. Click here to continue reading. |
The benefit of shifting from 'THE' path to 'A' path
We often have moments in life that we feel the need to choose a path, a direction, a way forward. This happens throughout our lives. These moments can be confusing and we can feel very unsure of which direction to go. We may even feel that there’s a ‘RIGHT path’, or that we need to find ‘THE path’. This binary mindset, or sense of there being a ‘right’ and a ‘wrong’ path creates a false dichotomy, and one which can leave us paralysed, procrastinating, anxious or stuck in indecision.
