About us
Positive Days is owned and managed by Jeanette Harkness, a qualified teacher, clinical hypnotherapist, trainer and practitioner of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and an Associate of the Professional Speaking Association.
Jeanette’s experience includes 20+ years working in the homeless sector with a vulnerable, highly challenging and potentially aggressive client group. Ten of these years were spent as part of a corporate management team with local responsibility for developing, managing and supporting a team of 22 staff, whilst enhancing the service, meeting the requirements of external funding agencies and managing budgets.
Jeanette also has a background in teaching Self Esteem and Confidence Building in Adult Education and for many years she has designed and delivered training and coaching in personal development and effectiveness. She also acts as a facilitator for groups throughout Yorkshire and the North West and chairs the Yorkshire Solution Focused Brief Therapy Group and sits on the board of a local, highly regarded, homeless accommodation project for young people. The nature of Jeanette’s involvement with young people and vulnerable adults necessitates an up to date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) Certificate.
“I am very enthusiastic about my work and, as a qualified hypnotherapist, solution focused practitioner, trainer and stress management consultant, I’m inspired by every session I have with clients, whether that be individuals, couples or groups. I chose to extend my practice of SFBT to offer hypnotherapy so that I could take my clients on that ‘special’ journey, fully utilising the power of the mind. My sessions are a joint venture between myself and my client and with these two approaches I am confident that either, or both combined, will help you make the changes which you desire”. Jeanette
