Helen helped me with some anxiety I developed after having my baby last year. I went to Helen with an open mind and in need of help. She was professional, kind and reassuring throughout the process and has definitely helped me.

By Tanya S.
Having struggled with insomnia and anxiety for a few years and having tried everything possible
(meditation, sleep management, medication, aromatherapy) I felt not just frustrated but desperate.
The quality of my life has deteriorated. So I made a decision to try hypnotherapy. Having done some research I got in touch with Helen. It was one of the best decisions in my life.
Helen is professional, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, confident and approachable.
She has helped me to work through my problems, overcome not only my fears of insomnia but feel more confident overall and shared many fantastic support techniques to maintain the achieved results. I was looking forward to every session with Helen and felt noticeably better after each one, it was a wonderful experience.
I would and have recommended Helen to my friends and family.
I would also like to take this opportunity to once again thank Helen for her help -

I am a 62-year-old lady who was hugely overweight, full of anxiety and extremely stressed.
I had this unhealthy acceptance that this is it there’s no hope.
A good friend, suggested I go to see Helen.
I have not looked back!
The amazing hypnotherapy, gentle guidance, listening and empathy, Helen offers, have transformed my life.
After decades of carrying around, stored anxiety and trauma from some of life’s cruel blows and situations.
I have been given a lifelong gift from Helen, one which has enabled me to look at and deal with life’s challenges in a way I never thought possible.
I am losing weight, I also have a new confidence and a zest for life.
I wholeheartedly encourage you to contact Helen, it’s life-changing! -

I have over many years consulted different Doctors and Therapist's in the hope they would help me cope with my Restless Legs and then I found Helen. Not only has Helen helped me but has given me 90% of my life back.
The last 10% is a work in progress, I can't thank you enough Helen for your help and understanding. -

If you're in the "i'm not so sure about this" camp and are reading through reviews trying to find something that makes you decide one way or the other then do yourself a favour and just give Helen a call. Been there done that and now wish i'd picked up the phone sooner. Honestly one of those need to try it to understand and I never thought (even walking through the door for the first time) that it would have such a positive impact.

Having struggled with IBS for over five years, I came to realise that a lot of my symptoms came from feelings of anxiousness. After a few sessions with Helen, I noticed a tangible positive change in my symptoms. Helen has also taught me the practical skills and methods to stay on top of my anxiety and stress, which I do most days if not every day now. She is also a total delight!

I visited Helen on the recommendation of a friend, completely sceptical on arrival but then amazed at how the techniques quickly reduced my anxiety levels. She made a difference on the very first session, but a few additional sessions really helped me take back control and I left each session feeling a weight had been lifted. Now with my new sense of well-being, I just listen to the recorded sessions occasionally for relaxation at the end of a day. I wish I had done this years ago!

I was recommended Helen by a friend when I was overwhelmed with high anxiety levels and I haven't regretted it for a second. I tried 'talking therapy' a year prior which I didn't get on with and dreaded going to. With Helen, I looked forward to each session and came away feeling instantly calmer and lighter, with the feeling of overwhelm quickly subsiding - amazing as each session was over Zoom! Being able to listen back to certain recording's outside the sessions was (and still is) a massive bonus and something I use a couple of times a week if I'm struggling to sleep / want a slight reset in the evenings. My anxiety levels have dramatically reduced in just two months which, at the time, felt far from possible - I can't recommend Helen enough!!

I wholeheartedly recommend Helen if you need help with any type of anxiety, or if you just want to experience the healing power of deep relaxation which comes through hypnotherapy. Helen is kind, warm, non-judgmental and easy to talk to. Having had just a few sessions of hypnotherapy I felt more in control of situations which had caused me worry and generally I was sleeping better and feeling so much better in my day to day life. Most importantly, Helen has given me the confidence and the techniques I need to move forwards and enjoy life again without fear. If you are thinking about contacting her, please do. It will change your life!

Having struggled with anxious thoughts and feelings for a number of years I reached out to Helen having exhausted various other talking therapies with little improvement. Initially I was skeptical of hypnotherapy, but having spent the past few months under Helen's guidance I (and my family/friends) have seen a marked improvement. From struggling at home and work to engage in normal daily activities, socialising and enjoying life, I am now much more in control of my thoughts, confident and looking forwards to the future. Helen has provided a great toolkit to maintain a healthy mentality and I would not hesitate to recommend her services, or return if ever the need.

If you are reading this you are probably looking for reassurance about embarking on a course of hypnotherapy. I will say right off that it may well be the best decision you could possibly make, and the best use of money you could ever spend on yourself. That’s certainly the case for me.
I came to Helen after struggling for many years following a very bad breakup and divorce that I didn’t want at all. The experience had come to define who I was and where I was in my life. I couldn’t imagine being separate from it and it coloured my whole life. In particular I was plagued with recurrent dreams relating to my ex, and after a particularly distressing one I just decided that enough was enough. Helen was recommended to me so I thought, why not give it a go.
After only one session I had a breakthrough when I realised that I wasn’t there to solve or even make sense of what happened in order to make me feel happier in myself. In fact the very opposite was true. The purpose of hypnotherapy was to solve ‘me’, and that would allow me to let go of that past trauma so that it no longer defined me. It had all still happened of course, but it became a distant memory, firmly in the past. As a bonus I can now recall more of the good things about my married life without feeling resentful and hard done by.
That’s the second major benefit - there is no digging over and over events, no opening of cans of worms and trying to make sense of it all. It’s about letting it go because it’s no longer part of your ‘now’. It serves no useful purpose.
The pace of the journey was perfect, and in between sessions Helen shares the ‘tools’ for you to work on at home to maintain the focus of the sessions. This proved really helpful to ingrain new habits and ways of being and feeling for me. And I know I have them to use in the future too.
It’s as though my life and existence has opened up in some fundamental way - I feel more in control of my day to day life and in dealing with events and issues that arise. I feel calmer, stronger, more motivated and I think kinder.
I have to admit to being cynical about hypnotherapy in the beginning, as many people are. You just have to trust that Helen is accessing your subconscious in the sessions. However, I did actually experience a few instances of ‘magic’, when things happened that I wasn’t expecting and couldn’t have guessed would happen, and that I felt I had no conscious control over. I would have been happy with the process without this, but it did help me to trust more fully in the concept of hypnotherapy I have to say.
Helen is friendly, approachable and of course highly professional, I felt comfortable with her straight away. I would definitely recommend hypnotherapy as a process and Helen as a therapist. -

I have recently found out that I am going to have to have a full hysterectomy as following a CT scan they have found a complex cyst on my right ovary. This came as a complete shock as I originally only went to the GP with menopausal symptoms. I saw Helen as the feelings of fear were overwhelming and as my consultant's appointment got ever nearer I was so tearful and beyond terrified. When I saw Helen I had this wrenching feeling in the pit of my stomach, I felt nauseous and couldn't eat, I cannot emphasize the strength of my anxiety. After seeing Helen that feeling has gone, if I hadn't experienced myself I am not sure I would have believed it but it is true. My mind set had changed and the weight that sat so heavy on my whole being has lifted.
I went to Helen because I was desperate, so scared and afraid and I cannot thank her enough for giving me the necessary skills so I could find it within myself to deal with the situation I am in. She can not change the fact that I need to have this operation but she has given me the tools to deal with those horrible debilitating fearful feelings - she is just the most skilled amazing lady.
Although I wasn't sure this would give me what I needed I can honestly say it is without doubt the best thing I have done. -

After receiving a promotion at work I decided to address my anxiety issues and contacted Helen to see if she could help. Best thing I could have done. Has helped in more ways then I could have imagined and feel like a new woman. Would encourage anybody thinking about contacting Helen to go ahead and do it, they won’t regret it.

Helen was welcoming and enthusiastic in her role of supporting people. I was looking for a hypnotherapist that I could trust and felt comfortable with. I was experiencing high levels of anxiety which was affecting my daily activities and affecting my motivation and confidence. My goal with Helen was to reduce my anxiety and increase my confidence and motivation which has exceeded my expectations. It has not only helped with my anxiety it has helped me to gain confidence within my university course. I am so grateful for the results and cant thank Helen enough. I would definitely recommend Helen to anyone experiencing any anxiety.

After a tough time for all with Covid and not being able to attend school during lockdowns, our very shy 14 year old daughter began to suffer with social anxiety. I think it may have been there for a while, but she had hidden it well. It became more apparent following home learning, when she went back to school. She was really suffering and finding it hard to cope, and thankfully she decided to come to us. We found Helen’s website and it sounded like she was the perfect match for my daughters’ concerns. She didn’t like the idea of speaking to the doctor and initially was quite worried about talking to Helen. But once she had attended her first session, she found Helen to be patient, kind and caring and soon felt she could trust her.
Following a few sessions, she seemed much happier in situations that previously made her feel very anxious. She no longer tries to get her schoolwork wrong so that her teachers don’t praise her in front of the rest of the class, she can now speak to shop assistants if she wants to buy herself something and many other things that she once avoided doing. It’s so lovely not to see a look of panic in her eyes when a waitress asks her what she would like to drink when we go out for dinner.
My daughter is so much happier and it’s fantastic to see her feeling more comfortable in situations and flourishing once again, which is all any parent wants for their child. Thank you so much Helen, she is now back on track to living her best life. -

I have to say I was a little sceptical as to whether hypnotherapy could help with IBS symptoms, in fact I think I was doubtful I could even be hypnotised. I must say not only was I wrong about the latter but that Helen has radically changed the way I can manage my IBS symptoms.
I am extremely grateful for Helen's support and understanding and have certainly changed my opinion of hypnosis. What is also clear is that Helen cares very much about getting results and supporting her clients. Not only were the sessions well planned and incremental in delivery, each one was supported by emails of techniques to practice and recordings to listen to. I would certainly recommend Helen to anyone struggling, as I was, with this very frustrating condition.
