About

I’m Sylvia Ingle, a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Mind Calming Specialist, working with adults, children, professionals, and organisations across the UK.

Before retraining as a therapist, I spent over 25 years in senior roles within global investment banking. That background gave me first hand insight into the pace, pressure, and complexity of demanding professional environments, as well as the impact that constant responsibility and high expectations can have on mental and emotional wellbeing.

My work focuses on helping the nervous system settle, so clarity, emotional balance, and resilience can return naturally. I have a special interest in Menopause (Peri and Post) and provide specific Menopause Support programme.

I offer CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia), the gold standard, evidence based treatment for persistent sleep difficulties and insomnia.

My Background

Before retraining as a therapist, I spent over 25 years in senior roles within Global Investment Banking, including Citibank, Chase Manhattan and Credit Suisse and a financial service company, Delta Capita, predominantly in London but also in New York. I understand the realities of high pressure environments, sustained responsibility, confidentiality, and the mental load that often comes with leadership and performance driven roles.

Alongside my corporate career, I held roles such as Global Head of a Corporate Wellness Committee and Mental Health First Aider, designing and supporting wellbeing initiatives within organisations.

This combination of professional experience and therapeutic training strongly shapes how I work today – practical, grounded, and deeply respectful of people’s lived experiences.

Rather than analysing or forcing change, sessions support:
