I started hypnotherapy with Kate at a time when I was feeling particularly low in my life. I knew as soon as I met her that I had done the right thing. She immediately put me at ease, listened and advised. I saw her regularly for around eight months and she completely opened my eyes to a new outlook on life. I have felt increasingly happy and more positive ever since. I continue to use her self-hypnosis technique from time to time and will always be grateful to her for turning me round and pointing out a new path to me – a path that I am continuing to explore.
I have had both Hypnotherapy and counselling with Kate and the sessions are so incredibly useful and rewarding. She’s everything you could want in a therapist – relaxed, punctual, organised and professional, with a wisdom I can’t comprehend, and a sense of humour to go with it. Her therapy room is a calming and beautiful escape in the countryside. It’s no exaggeration to say Kate has helped me to get my life back on track.
– One very happy customer.
We are incredibly impressed with Kate and can recommend her 100 per cent. She has been a tremendous support and a wise counsellor for our teenage daughter who has had anxiety, depression and BPD to cope with.
Kate has always been available for our daughter whether in person, by email or phone. She has gone beyond our expectations and never let our daughter or us down when she was needed.
Professional but approachable, she can relate to teenagers and their parents alike. Our daughter, even in her darkest moments, only had good things to say about Kate.
We really could not have got through the last two years without her.
I went to see Kate for hypnotherapy to overcome my fear or flying, shortly before an upcoming family trip. She helped me to get through it in a short period of time and I can now travel without a problem. A few weeks later I came back due to exam stress, resulting in patchy sleep and anxiety. But sure enough after a few sessions I was calm, confident and ready to get myself sorted. I, as a teenager, felt very comfortable and relaxed with Kate and am very grateful towards her.
I was totally averse to any type of therapy for years before going to see Kate. But after a few sessions I began to see how important therapy is. Kate is a wonderful therapist and it has (no exaggeration) changed my life. I am so glad that I made that call and had those sessions and have never looked back. I would highly recommend Kate without hesitation.
Having been through a very traumatic and unexpected period resulting in repetitive, aggressive and negative thoughts, plus an inability to enjoy a regular sleep pattern, I was introduced to Kate for counselling and hypnotherapy. After only 5 sessions, matters improved significantly and I am extremely grateful to Kate for her sympathy, understanding and care.
I would like to say that during the time I was attending hypnotherapy sessions with Kate, she helped me to find ways of coping with strong emotions and she taught me how to find ways to de-stress. I found her hypnotherapy to be very relaxing and very positive.
I made an appointment to see Kate for hypnotherapy as I had a long- standing issue with stage fright,…a particularly debilitating condition for a professional musician ! For me it was very important to be able to vocalise in detail my fears, and Kate provided a very calm and safe environment in which to do this. The hypnotherapy itself involved a kind of summing- up of all the negative factors surrounding my problem, and turning them around with positive, caring affirmations. There was no ‘going into a trance’ and not remembering anything about the session, it was more a case of closing my eyes and being gently led into an extremely relaxed state where my mind could absorb new information and re-programme itself. This included giving me some really useful mental tools to take away and utilise in a performance situation, and which have proved to be incredibly beneficial. I have found looking back, that hypnotherapy helped me to step outside my issues and see them in a new light, and has helped to set me on the road to a renewed enjoyment of my work which I thought I had lost. I highly recommend Kate for her knowledge and understanding as a therapist.
I visited Kate as I was having some stress and issues with attending medical appointments during my first pregnancy. I found her insights about my issues and concerns very enlightening and actually found it very helpful just to voice them with someone who listened and acknowledged my issues without judging them. I had no experience of hypnotherapy before and was rather sceptical that it could or would help me. After the initial session Kate gave me a recording to listen to, which I found very useful and easy to relax to. Especially helpful as I was suffering with some insomnia related to pregnancy. I attended more sessions and after each one found greater positivity and was more relaxed. I truly believe that my relaxed state greatly benefited my growing baby and my own wellbeing during my pregnancy and birth. I found Kate’s incredible positivity and zest for life especially good to be around and I really felt boosted by the experience of the sessions. I would recommend trying hypnotherapy out and giving it a few sessions before making any decisions. I think the skills for deep relaxation and self-hypnosis can help people long term and if I get stressed again or ever have a problem to sleep or generally need relaxation I would use the recordings.
Kate is a wonderful therapist and helped me through a time of struggle and confusion. I was very low and finding adjusting to a new phase of my life rather tough. Kate is so easy to talk to. She helped me gain perspective and come to understand my feelings at what was a very difficult time.
She took me on a journey through counselling and hypnotherapy that was very powerful. Following our sessions if I found myself in moments of stress or worry, I would almost subconsciously carry out the calming actions that in my hypnosis Kate had suggested I do, before I knew it I felt completely at ease.
My final session was very powerful and it has stayed with me since, bubbling away in my subconscious, reassuring me in tough moments that everything will work out.
I’m in a much better place now and forever grateful to Kate for helping me through the tough times.
