Founder

Welcome to Koseshi Clinic. My name is Cloudette Hancel, I am a UK NMC Registered Mental Health Nurse  with a Batchelor of Science Psychology degree. I am accredited with the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BAPCP) as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist. These are some of my credentials, but who am I and why did I become a Psychotherapist? 

I am someone who finds great joy in assisting people on their journey to the next iteration of themselves and I feel privileged that many people have invited me to help them along their way.   

I have worked with people who have had significant mental health concerns, and I was particularly interested in psychosis. However, it became apparent to me that no matter what diagnosis people were given, when anxiety was addressed symptoms were often relieved. It was not a “cure”, but addressing anxiety became the intervention with a profound impact on whether people were able to function to a better degree within their lives.  

Stress causes inflammation and inflammation puts our bodies into Fight, flight or freeze mode which is the body’s response to real or perceived threat. The problem is that in these modes we are psychologically, biologically and physiologically functioning without access to all of the systems our bodies and brains usually have access to. These systems make every day activities appear to be effortless and when anxiety/stress is present for significant periods of time the effort required to maintain one’s normal level of functioning can be exhausting. When I became a Psychotherapist I made it my mission to relieve as many people from anxiety as possible. It would be a pleasure to work with you. 

This is the next iteration of my journey and I’m very excited about it.
