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……….

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

D. A

I’ve never experienced anything like it before!

A. S

A very strange feeling that was also draining thoroughly enjoyable though.  I was very anxious about heights.  Since the sessions I’ve been able to take the family on foreign holidays.

Working with Edward was really enjoyable experience and I’ve managed to over come something that has dictated the way I lived my live .

R. S

I would never have believed the amazing effect Edward has had on my lovely friend. Her life was ‘floundering’ and not only did he put her back on the straight and narrow but he instilled in her a love for life and made her believe in herself.

Whenever she feels as though she needs reminding how amazing she is, she just books a session with Edward and she’s fully restored again!!

L. F

The results have been fantastic.  After a course of treatment I NOW SLEEP!  I would have no hesitation in recommending Edward Arran”.

R. S

I’ve heard about hypnosis but never experienced it. Found the experience very helpful and also talking to Edward really help putting things in perspective but it has also helped with sleeping not realising that the hypnosis makes you feel very relaxed. I feel that going forward I am stronger in myself and feel like I can tackle my challenges.

I have a phobia of the dreaded MRI machine and I was open to any help that Edward could offer me.

I feel a lot happier and feel like I can be stronger going forward. I am stronger than I thought I was. If anything bothers me I take deep breaths and try and think through the situation before doing anything whereas before I would have avoided the situation.

Edward has helped me with a phobia that has troubled me for many years. Having never tried hypnosis before I went in with an open mind and was looking for any help that Edward could offer me.

I found Edward very helpful, very approachable and felt that although it’s my phobia I am not alone in having these and he went out of his way to help me taking many ways to help me. I cannot recommend Edward highly enough a very knowledgeable man and always has a smile which helps too.

D. E

I suffered very badly from anxiety for 7 years. I have tried medication, CBT, group therapy, counselling and even rapid eye movement therapy, they were good for a short while but nothing shifted the anxiety for good and recently it just got unmanageable and unbearable.

I am into mountain biking and would worry about new trails and even fret about trails I had done a thousand times before, one tiny slip would set me off into a panic attack.

A new trail would leave me breathless, panicky and I would freeze with fear and have to push my bike back to the car in tears! Now on my bike I enjoy the moment. I don’t worry about what is ahead and have a huge sense of ‘I can do it’ and take every challenge as it comes.

I have done things since our very first session which I would never have even considered before! I have gone back to places where I couldn’t do bits and not even hesitated and smashed it! I am going mountain biking around Europe and now known can do anything! I can do it! No need to worry!

My husband and brother have noticed a huge change in me and it is all down to Edward! We couldn’t thank him enough!!!

K. T

Relaxing.  I found it difficult to resist unnecessary eating when stressed.  I am more relaxed about food and weight control.  I have tried many ways to lose weight and get my eating under control.

I was skeptical about the benefits of hypnotism, but since my therapy I have a much improved relationship with food.

S. S

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

S. C

You will never feel more relaxed

E. G

Calming, relaxing and peaceful ….. cured my hay fever.

A. J

I believe the word “hypnosis” is either misleading or there is a general lack of understanding on what it consists of.

All Edward does is bringing you into a calm state of mind where your awareness is enhanced so that you can focus better on the goals you want to set up for yourself.

N. A

Incredibly relaxing experience. Happy to listen to Edwards’s voice and allow my sub conscious to respond. Sometimes quite surprised at images/responses that came to mind.

I was finding work overwhelming and struggling to put things in perspective. I wanted to be able to not react so strongly to stressful situations and to not be visibly agitated.  People have commented on a change in my persona at work. I do feel more in control and don’t panic/stress as much when things go wrong.

I had no expectations of the hypnotherapy experience but have been really impressed by the changes I have seen since seeing Edward. Edward asks lots of questions to ensure that the crux of the issue is identified and can be handled with your sub conscious. I wanted to see an improvement in my ability to manage pressure in work and this has definitely been realised.

G. K

I was very impressed by the informality yet professionalism of your service.  Your approach seemed fresh and tailored to me, not formulaic.

H. T

Calmed my high levels of stress.

C. M

It is a very relaxing experience. I no longer drink alcohol, however the rather pleasant sensation of, say, a glass of wine is a similar feeling to hypnosis. You feel relaxed and safe.

Mellow is probably the best description of the emotional state. You are still there, fully aware of Edward speaking to you with a little fuzziness around the edges, as your mind allows itself to be more fully open to the experience.

After each session I felt very happy and comfortable, similar to a great night out in the company of good friends and slept well on the evenings, like someone with no troubles.

P. K

I’ve never felt so physically and mentally relaxed!

B. Y

I suffered with insomnia for many years and have tried many remedies. Quite apart from herbal remedies I also tried acupuncture coupled with the common sense routines, no caffeine, no TV in bedroom, warm bath before bed, darkened bedroom.

None of these remedies even touched my insomnia and I felt I was destined to never have a good night’s sleep again.  Although I had a slight (but totally unnecessary apprehension) to try hypnosis, I needn’t have been concerned at all.  During hypnosis I was awake, aware but very relaxed.  The results have been fantastic.  After a course of treatment I NOW SLEEP!

I would have no hesitation in recommending Edward Arran.

D. S

I had a big hope in the therapy with Edward, and on the other hand I was a little concerned as I had little idea and knowledge about it. A friend of mine got over acrophobia by hypnosis so I thought I should give a go.

Edward is very welcoming, and listens to me very carefully first. And he approached my problems considering my concerns I had against the hypnosis. The more I talked to him the more I felt the benefit and effect of his hypnotherapy. I managed the fear and anxiety when I had a job interview.

M. L

Excellent.  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 sessions with Edward I have done things that before I would of not had the confidence to do.  Even though I still stutter from time to time this is down to just learning again to speak with confidence.

S. E

I thought Edward was a superb help, and helped me in the time I was there.

R. D

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

L. R

A wonderful experience….giving you peace of mind!

E. B

Thanks to Edward, my life has changed massively.  I suffered with anxiety and it was affecting my day to day activities to the point where I did not want to leave the house.

Now, this is a very distant memory and I am anxiety free. I no longer dread waking up in the morning and thoroughly enjoy life.

For anybody considering hypnotherapy I would highly recommend Edward, it can be truly life changing.

H. G

I needed to start losing weight.  Edward’s sessions changed the way I managed what I ate and I have started losing weight

M. D

I would highly recommend Edward, he has helped me immensely and I would have no hesitation in seeking his help again in the future if needed.

J. H

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

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

He took my mind where I have never been before, which has improved my life and has made me more positive.  I was negative about my relationships to people close to me.

Edward supported me with advice during the whole process and the level of encouragement was excellent.

I can honestly say that the sense of achievement was excellent and would recommend Edward’s service to anyone who has issues that they are unable to find the answers.

B. M

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