What People Say

Some words from a few successful hypnotherapy clients

I began working as a hypnotherapist in 2004 and since then have helped thousands of people to lose weight and to stop smoking but there is so much more that effective hypnotherapy can do.  Over the years I have worked with an extremely wide range of challenges, from stress, anxiety, confidence and some very unusual issues.

Most of my work comes from recommendations from happy clients.  I often work with people who have tried hypnotherapy before, without success and help them find a way to make it work for them.  Here is just a small selection of testimonials from some of my clients……….

I did not have the natural births that I planned, yes I had to have medical help to deliver both my children, however without hypnosis I would not have had any control over the situation, I would not have felt able to deal with it and possibly I would not have had my second child, imagine that!

L. A

Without your help I do not know how my life would have gone.  Your sessions have really helped me sort out my family and health problems, so that now I can face things with a positive outlook.

Thank you.

I would describe my experience as very good it has helped me get past my stutter.  I felt low on confidence and nervous to speak to people.  My life has improved massively since my few sessions with Edward.

I have done things that before I would not had done.  I have the confidence to do that and even though I still stutter from time to time this is down to just learning again to speak with confidence.  If I need more sessions then so be.

I can not thank Edward enough for what he has done for me so far.

S. E

Hypnosis is hard to describe, it’s not what I expected but not sure what I did expect!  I was apprehensive of being judged and not feeling at ease but it’s been relaxing, intriguing and totally worth trying!

W. J

A bit strange but a very positive outcome.  I was frustrated with myself.  I am now moving forward with a much more positive approach with my issue.

A. H

Edward’s calm, personable manner ensures that his clients are put at ease.  He explains himself clearly and his technique ‘hit the spot’.

I feel much calmer and more centered than I have done for a while.  A true testament to the quality of his skills.

I would not go to see shows, to the cinema or to anything that involved loud noises and avoided them at all costs. I wouldn’t even stay to the evening reception at my own daughters wedding. I have constantly all my life turned down invites to functions which friends stopped inviting me to.

They knew if there was going to be any form of entertainment I would say no.

I have been to see a show in the West end and have also seen a musical. This was impossible before visiting Edward. Recently I saw a musician in the street and in the past would have legged it in the opposite direction, but I stayed to listen and enjoyed the music. My husband wanted me to film it, as he was amazed that I didn’t run off. I have just accepted my first invite to a family party where there will be a disco.

I would recommend anyone to try hypnosis with Edward. You have to be positive and willing to give it a try as I found out being positive can mean a change of life. Where I use to run in the opposite direction at the sound of loud noises, I can now control the fear rather than the fear control me and enjoy my life.

R. S

I had hypnosis many years ago but this was on a much deeper level.

S. C

Very relaxing, supportive and empowering.  I feel much more positive.

D. A

I would describe it a slightly strange but in a good way. For the time you are “hypnotised” it is like the world is continuing around you, and you are aware of all this, but you don’t care and are happy just being wherever you think you are at that moment in time.

I generally felt like, after having this problem for 20+ years of my life, and attempting to change nothing had worked before, I thought that I would try hypnotherapy as I had read that it could help me and I was at a point where I didn’t only want to change I needed to.

It has improved a great deal. I will admit that I was a little skeptical when I first start, as its something that I never thought could help me, and after my first session nothing seemed to have changed, but things did change but that first week was small changes.

I have now, at the time of writing writing this, had 4 sessions with Edward and the problems I went to see him about are now starting to go and my life is so much better for it and I am happier.

Even though I have only know him a few week, its feels like Edward Arran has been my friend for years. He is a great man, professional, funny and knows exactly how to help with the problems you rare having.

I would highly recommend his service to anybody looking for help with their problems, and for anybody who is looking for hypnotherapy to help, he would be top of my list.

K. L

It is quite a weird feeling. While I was aware of everything that was being said, and aware that if I really wanted to I could come out of it, in practice I was in such a deep state of relaxation that I didn’t have the inclination or the energy to do so.

I’d been suffering from depression and stress and was unable to stop myself behaving badly towards me partner. I just wanted to stay in bed and hide. This is normal after treatment for cancer, and some of it is delayed shock/PTSD, but I couldn’t face the thought of just putting up with it and waiting to get through it.

After the first session I already started feeling better but since the second one all these problems have miraculously gone away. I do get a bit down occasionally as everyone does, but I now snap out of it quickly and don’t take it out on my partner.

I’m so grateful for the speedy and effective treatment of my issues and I think it tragic that more people are not aware of the benefits of hypnotherapy.

C. B

Before the session I was lacking in confidence and self-esteem, I had just left college and this is now my first time out of education, so I needed to look for a job. But with the barrier of lacking of confidence it was hard for me. I felt like I didn’t want to go get a job.

But this lack of confidence had been making me not want to do things for a long time.

Edward has a calm and confident voice that makes you feel calm. Only having one session with him made a big difference to me and my life.

Just having a chat to him and then going into the hypnotherapy was good for me because it gave me the chance to open up about everything that was wrong and then gave him the chance to do hypnotherapy and try to fix the problem.

I don’t know how he did it, but it worked for me, and it fixed my problem. So thank you for helping me!

C. M

It was an amazing experience.  I found myself totally relaxed and comfortable with Edward.  He is truly gifted.

J. H

Just a quick note to update you on my progress.  I have lost 33 pounds since I saw you last!!

P. R

A hugely calming experience – I was surprised that I felt more ‘conscious’ than I expected.  I was suffering with great tension over a couple of major issues, including serious professional problems with a colleague at work. I felt that I could not find a way to deal positively with the problems that I was up against, and that I was ‘damaging’ myself by storing up the frustration and stress.

I am feeling much stronger and am much more able to ‘let go’ of the tensions created by people and situations over which I have no control.  Thank you Edward for helping me find a way through the complex and often frustrating situations that I have recently encountered.

His approach is uncomplicated and entirely logical, and has helped me to re-establish my own inner strength – He has helped ‘unlock’ the power within me and help me face up to and deal with the bullying and narcissistic tendencies of a work colleague in such a way that I am ‘in control’ once again!

M. W

The amazing thing was that after the sessions my problems cam back ten-fold with no respite making me believe the therapy hadn’t worked – but only made things worse!

Then suddenly all the problems disappeared and stopped – full stop.  Leaving me to be me – to be free – to be brilliant!  Thank you Edward – I would recommend it to everyone.

P. T

I don’t know how he did it, but it worked for me, and it fixed my problem.  So thank you for helping me!

C. M

I can’t thank you enough for teaching me how to fly!

L. R

I looked forward to each session, getting to speak to my subconscious was amazing.  I found myself feeling much happier and confident.

L. R

Hypnotherapy was a life saver for me.  It gave me back my freedom to make healthy choices.

P. T

Relaxing and surprisingly easy to do.

V. B

I would describe going to see Edward as having a gentle yet powerful brain massage, I go in feeling stressed and unsure about many aspects of my life and come out feeling euphoric and more able to function.  A great and lasting experience!

L. T

A strange relaxed feeling I had never experienced before.  I was frustrated at doing things I shouldn’t have been doing like having my mouth open when eating and talking over people.

I feel I am doing these things less. Not there yet but getting there.  I would recommend anyone who has similar problems to go to Edward

A. M

I’m not sure how I’d describe it, all I know is I feel much better when I leave than I did when I arrived!

L. B

Haven’t been so relaxed for an age!!  We should all do more of this!

S. K

Edward helped me enormously in preparing for the birth of my second child.  My first labour had been long, painful, and like most women’s, had not followed my birth plan!  I’d read all the books – on hypnobirthing and natural birth and I’d tried to practise some of the relaxation techniques that they taught,

most of which had concentrated on controlled breathing – not much different from the pilates and yoga I had also done. And so I wasn’t really convinced that they would help while I was in the throws of painful contractions.

I was sceptical about how Edward’s hypnotherapy techniques might help, and all I had to go on was my experience of TV and stage hypnotists. But Edward’s calm and caring approach and clear explanation of what he was going to do put me and my husband at ease.

fter only a couple of sessions I was able to get into a state of deep relaxation where I could focus on the positive goal of seeing my healthy baby boy, rather than a process of pain.

Unfortunately there were complications and I had to have a cesarean section. But the proceeding weeks and days leading up to the delivery were made all the easier by the hypnosis that I’d had with Edward

H. R

I am now less nervous and anxious and have a renewed confidence in myself.  Ed helped with my mental health was understanding and easy to get along with.

He was creative with ideas on how to help me and I came out feeling better about myself in so many different ways would thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting help with their mental health/problems.

A. W

Just had to write and tell you about the changes in my life.  The hypnotherapy did work after an enormous struggle with my mind – and I haven’t thought of a drink for 4 months!

P. D

Excellent.  Felt more calm and confident and able to channel my thoughts in a different way.  I did not know what to expect but hypnotherapy has given me the confidence to challenge my negative thoughts and deal with them in a positive way.

C. H

Very difficult to describe!  Changes ‘happen’ without having to work at them.  Always came out of sessions feeling much better than when I went in.
