Much of our mental life happens beneath the surface of our awareness. Hidden influences shape our decisions, emotions, habits, memories, and behaviours—raising fascinating questions about how much control we may really have over our own minds!...
The subconscious has long been one of psychology’s most fascinating and controversial subjects. This intriguing and entertaining talk takes us through the developing understanding of unconscious processes, the science and history of hypnosis, the pioneering ideas of Freud, and the continuing debates surrounding subliminal advertising, covert persuasion, and hidden communication.
Filled with surprising discoveries, thought-provoking questions, and fascinating examples from psychology and everyday life, this talk offers a captivating glimpse into the unseen forces that influence the way we think, feel, and act.

As a Chartered Occupational Psychologist, Hypnotherapist, and Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, I draw on many years of professional experience to present concepts in an accessible, and engaging way. My talks explore topics such as human behaviour, motivation, decision-making, wellbeing, resilience, communication, and the fascinating ways our minds shape our everyday lives.
Alongside my work in psychology, I am a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and regularly present talks and workshops on astronomy and the wider world of science. I aim to make science understandable, relevant, and exciting for audiences with or without a scientific background.
My presentations are carefully tailored to suit the interests and knowledge of each audience, whether professional organisations, community groups, clubs, educational audiences, or conference delegates. Every talk combines accurate, evidence-based information with engaging storytelling, real-world examples, and often a generous dose of humour.
