I was a bit unsure what to expect beforehand, Helen made me feel completely at ease right away. The environment was calm and welcoming, and I left feeling relaxed, grounded, and with a much clearer mindset. I would definitely recommend Advance Hypnotherapy to anyone looking for a positive change.
Following knee replacement surgery, I began to have trouble sleeping when I came home. This resulted in me suffering from insomnia and I had very little sleep for 2 ½ months, an average of around 1 to 2 hours a day (and that was broken sleep). I had never experienced anything like it before and I was in a very bad way. A friend of my wife who had also suffered from insomnia recommended Hypnotherapy.
After searching on the internet for a local hypnotherapist, I found Helen’s website and I made contact with her. From our initial conversation I found her very easy to talk to and we scheduled an initial consultation.
From the outset we agreed on 5 separate sessions and on the second session she asked me how my sleep was. At that point it was pretty much the same, which she acknowledged by saying it takes time for the therapy to work.
About 4 days after the second visit I suddenly started to sleep well and through the night. I had followed her instructions and not made any significant changes but suddenly my sleep started to go back to normal.
I have even slept during the recent extreme heat, I was amazed at the change, I couldn’t quite believe it.
When I saw Helen for the third time I told her of the changes, I said I hadn’t really done anything particularly different, but she just smiled and said that’s how the therapy helps people.
I have now finished all of my 5 sessions with Helen and I am still sleeping well and I can not thank her enough for helping me.
She is very patient and has a way of making you feel very calm and relaxed for the time you spend with her.
I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help for whatever challenges you have.
Helen is a really lovely individual who is passionate and very good at what she does. At first i was apprehensive but I'm so glad that i committed. The hypnotherapy Helen provided really helped me to let go of a lot of mental baggage and has helped me to move forward in life to a much better place. I would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with issues relating to the mind.
I cannot recommend Helen highly enough.
After experiencing a panic attack in a lake during a triathlon, I developed a lot of anxiety around racing and struggled with pre-race nerves. Helen helped me understand that I needed to “rewire” my brain, to learn how to stay calm, trust myself and truly believe that I was capable.
She gave me a mantra to use, and I have continued using it for the past two years. Looking back now, I have realised just how much has changed. The anxiety that once felt so overwhelming has genuinely gone, and I now approach races with a completely different mindset.
I cannot thank Helen enough for giving me the tools to manage those nerves, regain my confidence and enjoy racing again. What she taught me has stayed with me long after our sessions, and I am incredibly grateful for the difference she has made.
I’ve struggled with anxiety and low self‑worth for years. I tried everything — meditation, yoga, massage, talking therapies — but nothing really stopped my anxious brain from running the show.
Reaching out to Helen changed that. From my first email, she was supportive, clear, and genuinely encouraging. After speaking with her, I knew her calm voice would be perfect for hypnosis.
The sessions have been a game‑changer. I’m more confident, calmer, and that horrible inner voice is finally quiet. Life feels lighter and I’m moving forward.
What I loved most is you don’t have to relive every detail of your past. You just acknowledge the memories privately, and the work still happens.
Helen supports you outside the sessions too, with techniques you can use every day.
If you’re struggling and feeling nervous about reaching out…
Just do it.
I cannot recommend Helen highly enough. She has been absolutely amazing with my teenage son and, after just five Zoom sessions, has quite literally helped turn his life around.
My son had been suffering from crippling sickness when travelling by air and early in the morning. We knew it wasn’t typical travel sickness or obvious anxiety, and we suspected it may have stemmed from being unwell while travelling when he was younger. After drawing a blank with medication and our GP, we decided to try a different approach and came across hypnotherapy.
I contacted Helen and she was immediately responsive, taking the time to answer all my questions and explain the process clearly. She also made it very clear that it wasn’t simply about attending the sessions — it needed commitment from my son too, and he needed to be open to the process and willing to engage with it.
From the very first session, my son was incredibly positive about it. He genuinely enjoyed speaking with Helen and found her kind, supportive and easy to talk to.
He had his fifth session the night before our holiday, and I have to admit I was quite nervous the following morning. But I absolutely needn’t have been. The difference was unbelievable. There was no sickness at all! Instead, he was able to enjoy the excitement of the airport and the journey, and actually look forward to travelling. I was completely blown away by the change in him.
I expect he may have the odd top-up session in the future, but this has genuinely changed his life. That might sound dramatic, but it is absolutely true. He can now enjoy holidays and school trips without the embarrassment or fear of becoming ill and feeling dreadful, hanging over him.
My only regret is that I didn’t consider hypnotherapy sooner. It has honestly felt like magic, and I will be forever grateful to Helen for the care, support, understanding and help she has given my son.
Helen is excellent. I had five sessions and they were carefully and thoughtfully structured in such a way that I felt improvements from the first visit but each subsequent visit builds on groundwork that is done from the outset. Helen also provides a toolbox that ensures the lessons learnt in her sessions can be taken away with you. That doesn't necessarily mean that I will not go back - she uses the analogy of a car being serviced, I will certainly return for occasional servicing, but to continue the analogy I can deal with the tyres and water in between times. Simply knowing I have these tools increases my confidence ahead of difficult events.
Before I started I was concerned that it was expensive, and I will say it is not cheap, but it very much worth it and in Helen you do get value for money, not just in the quality of her work but there is no clock watching and no feeling of being rushed. When all is said and done, the question is how mush is your health worth to you?
Positive experience from start to finish would definitely recommend to anyone looking for help
Looking back, I realise that one of the hardest steps to take is admitting that we need help. Many of us try to deal with our worries and challenges on our own, convincing ourselves that we should be able to manage everything without support. Sometimes we don't want to acknowledge the things that are holding us back, whether it's a lack of confidence, anxiety, worries about work, or other personal struggles. I've come to realise that admitting you're struggling with something and seeking help can actually be far braver than facing it alone.
Working with Helen has helped me immensely. From our first session, she made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and completely at ease.
We spoke about many different aspects of life, our experiences, our habits, and how we can grow into better versions of ourselves. Over time, I noticed real improvements in my confidence, my ability to manage worries and anxiety, and the way I approached challenges at work and dealt with stress overall. The daily concerns that once felt overwhelming became much more manageable.
I am incredibly grateful for Helen's support and insight. If you're struggling with something and wondering whether to reach out for help, I would encourage you to take that step. Working with Helen has been a genuinely positive experience, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to make meaningful changes in their life.
I came here with a terrible fear of dogs that stopped me from completing various activities and it was really disrupting my life. Even after the first there was a big difference in how I felt in myself and how I thought. Now after 5 sessions I am noticeably way more confident around dogs and I can now say that I no longer have a fear of dogs
I went to Helen when I didn't know where else to go and thank goodness I did, I still can't quite explain what exactly she does but what she does works. I went to her feeling a shell of who I now am, she doesn't "fix" you, she gives you the tools to fix yourself and has such a lovely,kind, gentle way. If anyone is struggling with life I would highly recommend Helen. Thank you 😊
Helen has been instrumental in helping me improve my stutter by teaching me several techniques to slow down, stay calm, and speak with more confidence in everyday situations.
Before working with Helen, speaking in certain situations felt stressful and frustrating. Her sessions created a relaxed environment where I felt comfortable practising without pressure or judgement.
She is patient, supportive, and genuinely cares about helping people improve. The techniques she taught me have made a noticeable difference in both my speech and confidence overall.
I would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking to improve their speech, confidence, or communication.
I've held off on leaving a review until I finished my 5 sessions, I needed time to process the profound changes and what this means for me going forward. I can honestly say that Helen has changed my life! I've struggled with feelings of anxiety and depression, imposter syndrome and just generally not been very kind to myself for as long as I can remember. Since working with Helen, I feel so much happier and more content in myself, I can approach each day with positivity, knowing that I can handle anything that comes up for me calmly and rationally.
I've had experience of various therapies and approaches over the years, but nothing ever really worked for me and I didn't want to keep talking about and reliving my past experiences. With hypnotherapy, I didn't have to, we walked through them together mentally and each time, it got a little easier until I felt completely detached from them and could file them away as just another memory. I've never felt so light and free. I don't have words enough to thank Helen for what she's done for me, I'm so eternally grateful that I found her!!
Where do I start. 1st of all I just want to say what an amazing Woman Helen is and how she has changed my life and my family's lives. I struggled with Anxiety all my life but only found out what it was a few years ago when everything went seriously wrong for me with my mental health and I had a break down. Months off work and could hardly leave my house panic attacks just for simple things like hanging the washing out and being in a deep state of depression with anger issues. I had all the NHS therapy CBT training ect nothing really helped but I got over it. Fast forward a few years and it's happening again. So I had a look online about hypnotherapy. What did I have to lose with trying something outside the box. I filled out the form to Helen's practice and waited for a email back and I soon had a reply from this amazing lady. We had a chat on the phone and I immediately felt heard and safe in knowing this could actually work. We had our 1st session and it made me feel so much lighter in understanding this condition. 2nd session and bang a massive improvement to my MH. Roll onto my 5th session and I'm a completely different person I'm happy my anger issues have gone flying off the handle over the smallest things. Everybody has noticed how different I am. It's like I'm getting back to the laid back chilled out man I was 20 years ago. I beg you if you are reading this to please fill out the form this will change your life. Especially if like me you are a man and don't want to ask for help. Helen is a incredible person warm and understanding. It doesn't matter what you have been through there is no judgement on how small or how big your issues are.
Before starting hypnotherapy I was badly affected by anxiety and nothing seemed to help so I thought I would try hypnotherapy and honestly so glad that I did! I felt better and better after every session with Helen and now anxiety is no longer something that effects me or stops me from doing things. would 100% recommend. Thank you so much!
I was initially quite nervous to try hypnotherapy, but had heard positive things from family and friends, which gave me the confidence to go ahead. Helen was incredibly understanding and patient throughout, especially when I found it hard to put into words what I needed. Since the sessions, I’ve noticed a real shift – I feel lighter and more able to manage things day to day. Very grateful to Helen for her support.
I found Helen through a friend's recommendation and initially saw her for the recommended 5 sessions. I have continued to see Helen for additional sessions because, put simply, she is a fantastic help in so many ways. I recommend her wholeheartedly and I am certain that, if you are considering reaching out to her, you will be very glad indeed that you did. Her insights and knowledge, combined with her warm personality, and excellent communication skills, mean that the sessions have helped me enormously. I always, without fail, feel calmer and just 'better' after an hour with her, and always leave with positive thoughts and feelings. Thank you Helen.
