About Benn Baker-Pollard

I have dedicated my life to helping others and have a passion for enabling people to see their full potential. I help them to thrive in both their personal and professional lives.

I work with adults and children who are experiencing an emotional or physical issue that is holding them back. I support people who are struggling to adapt to change or cope with life’s challenges.

My personal passion is helping people with trauma, stress, anxiety, depression, male sexual issues, sexual orientation struggles and business success.

People often come to me after they have tried other approaches to move forward, but have ultimately still felt unhappy or stuck.

Regardless of what brings people to see me, they all have a few things in common:

  • They are motivated to get better, cope better or be better
  • They are ready to get their lives on track
  • They are inspired to change

My Experience

Since the age of 17 I have been leading teams in both the corporate and public sector. Most recently, I held a senior leadership position in the largest police service in the country, as well as leading a team of volunteers in a national ambulance service.

I have gained 15 years of leadership experience in demanding and potentially life-threatening environments. This has provided me with invaluable experience in managing risk, supporting staff wellbeing and fostering a positive culture across teams.

I use my knowledge of how the brain works to reduce stress, manage trauma, and build confident, resilient and productive individuals and teams.

I now practise from my quiet home therapy room in Sittingbourne, Kent, within easy reach of surrounding villages and towns.

Benn is absolutely wonderful. He’s that friendly face when you need it most.. calm and relaxed with powerful knowledge. When I first met Benn I was recovering from post natal depression and struggling with severe emetophobia. He helped me to understand why my brain was working the way it was, and gave me the guidance I needed to cope and ‘empty my bucket’. The audio helped me to sleep so much better! I looked forward to my sessions each week.. it was my hour of relaxation and calm, going home feeling happier and more able to cope with my anxiety. Thank you Benn for all your wisdom, I am forever grateful.
Response from the owner: Thank you Lisa, absolute pleasure working with you to achieve your goals and get you back on track. 😁

I've never done hypnotherapy before but had done CBT in sports therapy to help in the past when I competed in dressage. I found the hypnotherapy with Benn really helped me lay down the goals I wanted to achieve, and I really looked forward to our sessions together. Benn was professional and compassionate throughout our sessions. I would highly recommend him to anyone to help understand your stressors and how to deal with them.
Response from the owner: Thanks Charlotte it was a pleasure working with you. Warm Regards Benn

Stress attacks us when we don’t expect it. Benn has guided me through my stress and enabled me to sort myself out. Without his guidance I believe I would have been in a real mess. I thank him for using his skill and kind and thoughtful manner to enable me to move on.
Response from the owner: Thank You Stratton, a real pleasure to work with you. Warm Regards Benn

Benn has made such a positive affect on my life and no matter what spanner seems to be thrown into the works, Benn has away of being able to stop me over thinking and worrying about things that have not happened. Benn has support me through getting divorced and leaving an abusive relationship, and even now when something triggers me, Benn reminds me that I am in control of my own life now and that my ex husband no longer has any power over my life. Benn also supported me through taking a DNA test with regards to my long lost father getting in contact with me after many years and more recently, Benn was like my life line when I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer last June. Benn would simply tell me to focus on the facts that I did have when I felt I was completely out of control. For anyone thinking of working with Benn, I can honestly say that he has impacted on my life and what I have got mostly from the sessions is that talking about the past, it has gone! It is about addressing what is going on in the here and now and using the tools he has given me to focus on the present because we can not change the past but we can control the present and work therefore to the goals that we want to. Thanks to Benn making me believe in myself, I have not only completed a level two qualification in Mental Health but I am now doing another level 2 qualification in Domestic Abuse. Benn made me realise that I can really do anything if I stop thinking negatively because that’s the only thing that stops me growing as a person.Thank you Benn for all you have done because without you, I think I would still be stuck in the past. You taught me that it’s about focussing on my life now and what I can do to change things. I never thought I would of had half the courage to do what I needed to do but I am now stronger than I ever thought possible and that’s thanks toYOU!
Response from the owner: Wow Lou, thank you for the review. Privilege to work with you and help you take back control of your life. Warm Regards Benn

I was a bit unsure about what to expect from hypnotherapy but after Benn was recommended to me, I gave it a go. I was getting very anxious and Benn really helped me turn things around. From dreading certain situations I learnt how to manage the way I was feeling. And sessions were done remotely which worked really well for me as i could do them in my own home.
Response from the owner: Thank you Tracy, I am grateful for your feedback. Warm Regards Benn

Benn is an exceptional person, who has been such a truly positive influence to me in this process. Benn is highly emotionally intelligent, calm, patient and understanding. Benn has been outstanding and life changing for me; a man of the highest values. He is thoughtful, genuinely caring, reliable and I cannot recommend Benn enough. This was the best investment of my time in my life. Thank you so much.
Response from the owner: Thank you for your amazing comments Ray, pleasure to work with you. Warm Regards Benn

My life before working with you was dark I couldn’t go out with confidence. I came to see you because I needed change in my life.When I came to see you I wasn’t hopeful as I tried so many things to help my anxiety and nothing worked however now I’ve had my sessions with you, it’s changed everything the way I think the way I react to situations and certainly made me more positive.If someone asked me about hypnotherapy I would say do it 100% it will change your life for the better. I’m so thankful I tried it and now I couldn’t be happier. Thankyou so so much I have a life now x
