Gillian Padgett trained in the UK as a Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist. After the murder of her best friend and witnessing the devastation to her friend's family, Gillian pursued training to work with victims of crime and families of murder victims. This led her to study stress and well-being from as many perspectives as she could find. Sharing empowering information on healing the damaging effects of stress and trauma has become Gillian's passion, through her books, online programs and directly with clients.
