Maxine | The Anxiety Breakthrough Coach

Anxiety coach Newcastle-Under-Lyme

Hi, I'm Maxine. For over 25 years, I’ve helped thousands of people to shift out of survival mode and into a calmer, more grounded way of living. 

Anxiety, and emotional pain can be exhausting, especially when they’re tangled up in unresolved past experiences or current pressures that feel too much to carry alone. These feelings often run deep, and while they may look like overthinking, fear, panic, or overwhelm on the surface, they’re usually your nervous system’s way of trying to protect you from something it hasn’t yet resolved.

In our sessions, we make space for those feelings, without judgment. Together, we explore the roots of your anxiety, understand your triggers, and begin to process what's been stuck, so it no longer runs the show. Using a blend of research based approaches including:

  • Integrative Psychotherapy.
  • Hypnotherapy 
  • EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) 
  • Humanistic Neurolinguistic Psychology
  • Mindfulness-Based Coaching 


and emotional resilience tools, we create a plan that fits you, not a one-size-fits-all method.

Whether you’re dealing with performance anxiety, chronic stress, grief, panic, burnout or just feel like you’ve been stuck for too long, this can be the turning point. I'm here to help you get the changes you want in your life. 

To ask any questions or to take the next step, please send me a message via the send a message - button.

Online therapy

Working together on online (Zoom) means you can access therapy from the comfort and privacy of your own space. Many clients find being in a familiar environment helps them feel more at ease and able to open up.

Online sessions also remove the stress of travel, making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while still receiving the same level of care, connection, and progress as face-to-face work. With secure video calls, we can create a safe, focused space for meaningful change, wherever you are in the world.

Inbetween sessions I provide excercises to help maintain the work we've done in session and I encourage updates via email to help keep you on track. 


Simply send me a message me via the send a message - button to take your first step. 

Qualifications and registrations

I am dedicated to helping you overcome the challenges that are keeping you stuck, anxious, or held back by past experiences. With over 25 years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise as a certified hypnotherapist, psychotherapist, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) practitioner, and EFT trainer. Over the past two decades, I’ve helped thousands of people worldwide overcome anxiety, fear, trauma, and the lasting effects of toxic relationships.

 

As an experienced therapist and coach, I combine evidence-based approaches with deep therapeutic work, tailoring every session to meet your individual needs. My extensive training in psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, and EFT allows me to address both the immediate symptoms you’re facing and the deeper roots of distress, ensuring lasting change rather than short-term fixes.

I also train other practitioners in EFT, which keeps me at the forefront of new developments in the field and continually enhances my practice. My work is trauma-informed, compassionate, and grounded in helping you feel safe, understood, and empowered to create a life beyond anxiety and past pain.

My goal is to provide effective, personalised therapy that helps you release what’s been holding you back and move towards greater freedom, confidence, and emotional resilience.

Specialisations and Expertises

Many of my clients come to me feeling anxious, stuck, or emotionally exhausted, often after trying everything else to feel better. They may be dealing with long-term stress, past trauma, or the impact of toxic relationships, and nothing seems to shift the deep emotional patterns underneath.

I specialise in working with anxiety, fear, trauma, and the lasting effects of emotionally harmful relationships, particularly for adult survivors of childhood abuse. Using a blend of psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), and emotional resilience tools, I help clients address both the symptoms and the root causes of their distress.

Clients often begin to feel calmer, clearer, and more in control within 6–12 sessions. Longer-term work is available for deeper healing and recovery, always at a pace that feels safe and supportive. Sessions take place online, offering a comfortable space to begin your transformation, right from where you are.

Most common issues I support people with:

Anxiety: Persistent worry and fear can leave you feeling tense, on edge, and unable to switch off. It often affects sleep, focus, and confidence, making even everyday tasks feel overwhelming.
Fear of Failure: Fear of making mistakes or “not being good enough” can hold you back from opportunities, keeping you stuck in procrastination or avoidance.

 

Fear of Public Speaking – Speaking in front of others can feel overwhelming, triggering panic, racing thoughts, or physical symptoms that make it hard to express yourself confidently.

Social Anxiety: Worry about being judged or saying the wrong thing can make social situations stressful, often leading to avoidance and feelings of isolation.

Performance Anxiety: High-pressure situations can trigger self-doubt, overthinking, and fear of underperforming, stopping you from reaching your full potential.

£100 per 60 minute session.
