Hi Helen

I cannot begin to tell how fabulous life is now! I feel like the biggest weight and tightest shackles have been removed – it’s wonderful.

I arrived at 7am on Wednesday and was told I was first on the list. I went down at 8:30 to wait about five minutes before being taken into theatre, where I was given the spinal block and laid quickly on my side (it kicks in pretty quickly). I told them I’d been using hypnosis along with music and would need minimal sedation and that’s how it went!

I remember being clamped into place, being aware of cutting, sawing, hammering, pushing & stapling but no pain and no anxiety – in fact, I was grinning so much they must have thought I was insane!

I came back as soon as they took my earphone out and said my name and was awake and alert immediately. I spent a lovely half an hour in recovery before being wheeled me back to the ward. This was by 12pm!

The only bad thing was trying to sleep the first night but even that didn’t hold me back. I saw the physio, my surgeon, the ward appointed doctor and X-ray team and managed to be released within 36 hours of arrival – pretty good going for major surgery!

Adding my own use of positive music bolstered the work we had done, but the suggestions during hypnotic state of confidence in the team, ease of surgery and ongoing acceptance / tolerance of the healing pain (and that’s the only pain that’s there!) are what made it such a positive experience.

People seriously need to know about this! I will be shouting about it on any platform I can access next week.

Thank you so much for everything and I can’t tell you how exciting it will be to get back to the pleasure and challenge of your yoga classes.

I came to Helen a desperate man in search of a good night’s sleep. Helen skilfully unpacked the issues preventing me from falling and staying asleep, devised a hypnotherapy plan to resolve this, and empathetically – and skillfully – guided me through to a solution that has me sleeping normally for the first time in years.

I wanted to gain more knowledge about my body. I learned that little changes can make a big difference, and I learned lots of little ways to keep myself poised. Everything was very clear and inclusive. Thank you!

I really like the way you [present] the Introduction course. It makes it easy to go back over a particular bit to understand and work through and recheck. Having no time or being interrupted stops being an issue and [it’s easy] to make it part of my every day life. It really is a brilliant course. Extremely accessible. I can’t think of any excuse not to be able to do it!

I attended Helen’s workshop on Saturday morning … and what a treat it was for my mind, body and spirit. Helen’s attention to care is obvious throughout the morning as she gently guides you through movement and stillness. I can’t recommend Helen enough.

I went to see Helen as I was worried about having a wisdom tooth removed, due to a previous difficult experience. I found Helen extremely easy to work with and she immediately put me at ease. I have to admit that I was slightly sceptical about hypnotherapy beforehand but the experience was wonderful! My dental surgery proved to be as complicated as the last time but I was able to use hypnotherapy to get me through in a completely calm way. The dentist was amazed at how calm I was considering how difficult the extraction was. I would definitely go back and see Helen and I highly recommend her as a therapist.

I arrived at Helen’s cosy, warm consulting room and settled in a comfy chair. I was a complete mess of anxiety, hands shaking, stomach noisily churning!
I sat, and talked of my anxiety, what was the cause and how I would like to be at the end of my sessions and beyond.
We had 4 sessions, and I was given recordings to listen to and focus on, to relax and secure my way forward in life.
Over the sessions (although they were not like ‘sessions’ but more like talking to a very dear caring friend), my anxiety levels dropped… and dropped, and I was able to look ahead to a future that I, myself wanted, to come out of this dark cloud and into the bright sunshine.
Helen gave me strategies to make myself feel safe and secure from the worries that caused my anxieties.
I was able to move forward out of one chapter of my life and into the next shining chapter of my ‘book of life’.
Helen is a warm, caring, gentle soul. I have complete confidence in her professionalism and I was given the tools to move forward in my life – and I’m still moving forward, thank you Helen!

Words cannot fully express the gratitude I feel towards you and your beautiful self-hypnosis work. I was referred by a dear neighbor/friend and it still feels like Divine Intervention. I had no idea this work even existed and with my upcoming surgery, these self-hypnosis visualizations are exactly what I need to properly relax my mind and body. They created a crystal clear healing visualization in my mind. The personalizations of the mp3 brought many smiles to my face because they rang so true to the way my brain works about my current experience. Helen, you are so gifted and I will continue to tell many people about your priceless work. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Yesterday I attended my first ever yoga workshop, run by Helen.  I had only ever done ‘yoga at home’ before and had been following various you-tubers throughout lock-down.

Helen’s workshop was a total eye-opener for me.  Focussing more on small (and very effective) movements and body awareness, I was able to tune totally into my body; feeling the beneficial differences as the workshop progressed.  The use of various essential oils through the practice was an additional bonus.  The session ended with me being guided through my first Yoga Nidra. I was amazed at how I felt after this; my mind was calm, quiet and still, my body relaxed and refreshed.  I will definitely be attending another workshop with Helen!

I didn’t really know what to expect but Helen’s one day retreat exceeded anything I could have imagined. Having suffered with neck pain for years (and when I arrived at the retreat) the exercises Helen taught us really eased the pain.

I am really enjoying the program. I can see how it will be helpful. It is very easy to follow and I like the fact I can repeat a video. It is a brilliant course and you are a fab teacher, thank you.

I really enjoyed [the Bones for Life workshop] […] It was so beneficial coming in person and seeing it all ‘for real’. You were very professional and spoke with such enthusiasm and also sharing your own journey made things resonate more. I would definitely recommend it to others. I found the sharing of stories helpful too and left feeling very positive.

I contacted Helen when I was struggling to cope with both physical and mental health issues while going through a high conflict divorce. Our initial sessions were extremely valuable to get to the heart of what I was seeking to accomplish in navigating multiple related challenges.

Helen then assisted me in tackling my long standing issue of anxiety-related insomnia which a myriad of approaches had failed to improve. Based on my inputs, Helen created a personalized recording which incorporated a broad variety of concepts that tied into my well being in addition to physical and mental relaxation components.

Almost a full year later, I continue to listen to the recording nightly and it has been truly transformative. I now sleep extremely well almost without exception, and no longer wake up in an anxious state or lie awake for hours, both of which were chronic problems that I previously faced. I have benefited tremendously from my sessions with Helen and cannot recommend her highly enough.

I had a hypnotherapy session with Helen to prepare me for hand surgery and for my recovery afterwards. I loved her calm, friendly approach. The personalised recordings (for pre- and post-op) were also very helpful. Definitely recommended!

I don’t always understand how some of the processes can help my bones but I noticed a huge difference on my stability on holiday, while climbing on and off boats, climbing up steep wet steps and clambering through caves. I […] felt so much more confident […] my feet felt stronger and stable. I definitely want to do another course.

Beautifully put together.

It feels good all round. My body feels more relaxed.

I went through the menopause early, at 46. So I understood very early on that bone health is really important [and] that building bone strength was key. So when this course came up, I knew that this was something that was going to make sense. I would thoroughly recommend it […] the movements you do are very subtle, very gentle, but they are powerful […] and long term. And it’s clear in my mind that if I [can] keep up the very good work of doing very simple movements [that] are very easy to incorporate into your day, I know that my bones will go from strength to strength. Good luck!

I am still almost mystified as to how hugely enlightening my ‘becoming a non-smoker’ session with you was, the issues it raised which I – a mere mortal – hadn’t considered and for which I am extremely grateful.

You will be glad to hear that I am now going into my seventh week without the nicotine weed and without any other assistance. I was even more thrilled to see, when I weighed myself on my daughter’s scales a couple of days ago, that my weight hasn’t altered.

Thank you for your professionalism, kindness and consideration.

I have known Helen for many years on a personal level, but it was only recently that I spoke to her in her professional capacity. I was a little hesitant about hypnotherapy at first but I knew that she had provided invaluable help to others, so I went with my instinct and trusted her. After the first session I knew I had been right to seek her help as she understood almost immediately how to help me, and get me back to where I wanted to be. Two sessions later, and with the help of the personalised recording she made for me,  I feel revitalised, focussed and back to being me. I can’t thank her enough.

I was very lucky to meet Helen about a year after I had become unwell with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). At the time I didn’t know what was wrong with me other than it had come on out of the blue and was trying to take my life away from me! In addition to the hypnotherapy, it was so inspirational to talk to Helen who herself had been so ill and to see how well she has recovered. She has learned so much through her own journey back to health. Her combination of wisdom, expertise and compassion set me on the right path to recovery myself.

Hypnotherapy with Helen has been a complete game changer for me. Months of painkillers, medication and doctors treatment hadn’t helped my condition. Experiencing long term chronic pain made me realise there could be an emotional issue behind it. The work I did with Helen brought me enormous relief, both emotionally and physically. Learning how to bring my body into a state of relaxation eased the pain massively from the start. More than that, at my next medical check up, my doctor was happy to report that my healing had been fast tracked. I am so impressed by how powerful it has been and very grateful my pain has disappeared!

When I contacted Helen I was feeling distraught. During our sessions I began to feel calmer, and by the end of our work together my nervous system was noticeably more regulated. Helen was wonderful to work with – supportive, considerate and compassionate.

Helen is an excellent teacher and we spent a happy day dispelling myths and discovering ‘biological optimism.’ Wholeheartedly recommended.

After attending Helen’s day retreat I can feel different parts of my body that I have always taken for granted. I feel more relaxed, confident. The whole day has been incredible.

I was excited to attend Helen‘s Making Space workshop but a little apprehensive as 3 hours may prove to be a long time especially as I had never taken a class with Helen before. I shouldn’t have worried – i enjoyed the time so much and it felt luxurious to really spend time listening to my body and letting it do ‘what it knows to do’.

My mind cleared quickly and I settled into listening and becoming aware of what my body was telling me.  Helen is an expert at building trust and a supportive atmosphere and by the end I felt a great deal of release of stress which I wasn’t consciously aware that I was carrying. There was less movement than in other classes I have attended but it was far better movement. Helen obviously has an in depth knowledge of what she teaches and great experience in teaching.

She helped me find the best position for me for the Yoga Nidra practice at the end, so that I was the most comfortable I have ever been in for this part of a yoga class. I really appreciated the importance Helen placed on this final relaxation which I have always thought was the best part of a yoga class but which is skipped over by other teachers I have known.

I came away feeling peaceful and also with a surprising understanding of how tired I am. I have experienced quite a lot of difficulty over the last few years and the workshop today has helped me clarify that I need to take time to look after myself so that I can continue supporting others who need me. I’ve been told this and on an intellectual level I understand it, but Helen’s workshop today has made me see I need and want to do this. Helen’s gift is definitely that of helping people understand what they need.  Amazing.  Thank you.

Before working with Helen I was very anxious about a long and complicated treatment my dentist had recommended and was considering requesting sedation for the entire procedure. During my sessions with Helen I began to feel much better, more self empowered and I became sure that I would be able able to get through the challenge, which I did. I now feel much stronger, my anxiety about going to the dentist is nearly gone now and I have learned how to help myself with the various tools Helen gave me.

As a scientist, I loved understanding the science behind the program and seeing the proof that change [in my posture] really is possible.

I was told that I would need a hip replacement. ‘No worries,’ I thought, ‘I’ve already had one done, nothing to it.’ Until it was explained to me that this time it would be a spinal anaesthetic rather than a general, and that I’d be awake throughout. Gulp! That thought did not appeal to me in the slightest – to say that I was incredibly nervous was an understatement. Until I had a conversation with Helen, who said that it was quite a common occurrence these days and that she would be able to help, which she did with the aid of a pre-op hypnosis recording.

The advice was to listen to it as often as I could prior to the operation, which I did and listened again on the morning of the operation. By the time the surgeon came to collect me I was feeling very relaxed both in ‘mind and soul’.

Helen also provided a post-op hypnosis recording, which was as helpful as the pre-op one was, especially when I was feeling uncomfortable and had difficulty sleeping.

Without the help from Helen and those wonderful recordings, I think my surgery and recovery would have been far more traumatic. In fact, it was noticeably easier than the first time round!

I already knew more or less what to expect from my surgery, but if this had been a new experience for me I can see how having a personalised recording specific to my needs would have been even more helpful. I would definitely recommend talking to Helen if you are having surgery in the near future.

I was seeking help with my spine and neck. I learned how to stand and improve my posture. The day has given me better balance and I feel invigorated and relaxed. I feel the day was perfect and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Helen is an excellent teacher.

A wonderful few hours to escape and reconnect. Helen’s yoga workshop was perhaps the most relaxing thing I have ever done! She immediately puts you at ease. A wonderful session no matter your yoga experience. I am fairly inexperienced with yoga and I found it extremely gentle and wholly relaxing. You leave with a wonderful feeling that lasts for a few days at the very least. Can not recommend enough. Thank you Helen.

I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful workshop on Saturday. I had arrived with quite a painful niggling neck which I had had for three days. Very soon into the yoga practice I felt very deeply connected to my body and during your guiding and curious questioning and inviting me to ‘notice’, I felt permission to ‘let go’ and this evoked a release which bubbled all through my core and emerged as a surge of emotion, something I think I had been holding onto. Your gentle voice was soothing and I soon realised my body was aware but not tense and my neck pain was gone!

Throughout the workshop I felt that I was invited to move consciously with kindness, you provided an environment and platform for peace and tranquility and because of this I was able to totally relax and feel attuned to myself. Lastly and most importantly for me was the sense of being held and nurtured and nourished, a true gift!

I feel like my body knows this already. It’s as if it’s saying ‘finally, this is better!’ I was in the cinema the other day and sitting uncomfortably. I aligned my neck [using a Bones for Life process] and immediately felt that it was such a better way to watch the film!

The surgery was a success! My dentist said there was plenty of bone to place all 5 implants, no need for another surgery! You don’t know how relieved I am! In a month or so, maybe sooner, I’ll have my temporary prosthesis and be able to taste and chew my food for the first time in years! This has been quite a journey and I’m so glad it’s almost over!

I was given twilight sleep instead of general anesthesia, it only lasted 3 hours instead of 4-5 hours as I originally was told. I had minimal bleeding, some swelling but not too bad and no bruising, so far. 

I can’t tell you how pleased I am at the outcome! I truly believe the hypnosis had a great deal to do with this, working with my subconscious to heal my body! Thank you again for your help and guidance!

The sudden occurrence of a physical impairment shocked me into realising that, even though I had been working on my emotional and psychological growth for a long time (including weekly counselling for the past year), it felt like there was still a lot that I couldn’t see and/or acknowledge.

I realised that I needed to find something to help me to crack open the issues that were hampering my progress. I had been wondering about hypnotherapy. Struggling with chronic anxiety for a long time I often had the feeling that there was a deep seated issue at the root of my problems that I consciously did not want to access, perhaps because I was afraid of discovering something terrible about myself.

I feel in very safe hands during a session. Helen is both very focused and very intuitive at the same time. I feel listened to and able to open up and say anything that I want to. It never fails to surprise me where we go and what comes up!

Afterwards I usually feel much happier, more positive and lighter. I can see how negative messages about myself have weighed me down and coloured my thoughts, feelings and perspectives. Listening to the recordings Helen has made for me after the session I am sometimes aware for a day or two that my perceptions are being reset. I then become aware of how they are reminding me, and my subconscious, to stay in a more positive
place (a bit like wearing braces for your teeth!).

I am very grateful for the deep underlying changes that have come about since I started working with Helen. I am coming to appreciate, love and value myself. Let go of fears and guilts that hold me back and now feel much more supported by life. It’s very liberating and exciting as well as being a great relief!

Before working with Helen, I was feeling out of sync both on the professional and personal front.  I had recently experienced the loss of my mom, a setback in my career, and poor eating habits. A colleague recommended reaching out to Helen, and I am so glad that I did. I was hesitant at first, as I live in the US, but as fate would have it, Covid hit and it didn’t matter. Helen and I were able to connect as if we were in the same room. Her kind and welcoming approach allowed us to establish a fast and productive relationship.  I always felt safe and at ease to speak my mind during our sessions. The recordings she made for me were on point and served as a simple but effective means to re-enforce our sessions. These are recordings I still go to even though it has been months since our last session. It took time for me to find my way back to myself, but it did happen.  I know that the hard work that Helen and I did, made that road manageable and at a speed that I never would of imagined without her. I would highly recommend working with Helen should you be looking for a positive path forward.

Hypnosis for surgery was something I had never heard of or considered but with Helen being a client of mine I was intrigued.

In 2023 I was diagnosed with a brain tumour which was really difficult to deal with being a mum, wife and running a business. To make it more worrying the tumour was attached to my optic nerve and had the potential to take my sight.

I found the best surgeon and decided to have the risky surgery in April 2024 to give me the best chance of retaining my sight and to try to prevent any other symptoms to add to the tremor I already had.

The closer it got to my surgery I was doing all of the practical things, getting family things organised, making sure everything in my business was delegated.
But I realised I had forgotten to think about my wellbeing, my mindset and I hadn’t taken the time to feel into my feelings and think about how I really felt.

Then came the realisation that I was terrified. What if it went wrong? What if I didn’t feel like myself again after the operation?What if something happened to my sign and I couldn’t watch my daughter go to her prom or my son play football?

So I reached out to Helen. Straight away she listened, I felt comfortable, heard, seen and understood. Helen really put me at ease and explained how the hypnosis worked and how it could help.

I had one session a few days prior to my surgery which really helped and Helen sent me recordings to listen to during my recovery.

Helen was amazing in helping me prepare for and get through my surgery. The recovery was hard following the 8 hour operation through my nose and coming round I realised I couldn’t breathe through my nose which made me feel really panicky. Listening to Helen’s recordings really helped me through that difficult time.

I would definitely recommend speaking with Helen and having hypnosis for surgery. The only thing I regret is waiting till it was so close to my surgery date. I would advise preparing much sooner.

Thank you Helen for your support, I can’t express how much you helped me.

I love doing the Bones for Life course. It was so much fun and so educational. I’ve learned how to realign my posture while standing, while walking, while getting up and down. It was really informative […] Having a diagnosis of osteoporosis can be scary, but it kind of took all of the fears out of it, especially because [Helen’s] created this amazing self hypnosis tape, which [is] so empowering and really helps you reprogram your mind. […] So you’ve got this kind of multi disciplinary course, which is just brilliant and really worth every penny. I’m so glad I did it.

I feel so relieved that there is something other than weight training which I can’t do … I’m not worrying now, I’m doing something [for my bones] and am feeling so positive. It’s made such a difference!

I’ve been listening to the recording you made for me every night (and sometimes in the morning) and just wanted to say WOW, I’ve been getting so many little signs that it’s working!! I’ve had a bunch of things “unlock” from a work perspective. Got feedback from a client that I was “grace under fire” during a difficult conversation. I’ve been sticking to my food program and feel GREAT and have so much energy. And so many other little things both personally and professionally. A huge thanks to you for everything!!

An excellent day. Helen is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I learned to stand taller and to walk barefoot more often – it has made me much more aware of how I walk and I found that raising my feet relieved my lower back pain when sitting. Overall I learned that small changes can make a real difference. I look forward to future events!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your help and assistance during my hypnotherapy sessions. Originally I was a little sceptical around the process having never experienced hypnotherapy before. However, within minutes of my initial session I felt at ease and knew that with time I would be able to overcome a number of personal barriers. I can say without any doubt the help and techniques you installed got me to a much more positive place. Therefore I would have no hesitation in recommending you to friends, family or colleagues. I hope to have some follow up sessions in the future.

Since starting the course I have started pulling my shoulders back when driving the car and sitting at the computer as well as when doing my daily walks. That feels good.

It was great to join you and the other beautiful souls  Making Space at The Retreat in the beautiful New Forest, and what a venue it is !! and what a blissful time we had !!! 

We certainly Made Space. 

You manage to create this instant feeling of calmness as well which followed throughout – into the yoga, then way into the beautiful guided meditation, and one thing I noticed you found time to make sure all our needs were met in the class individually, to support us where needed even though the retreat was full. 

So many thanks, I’ll be booking up again !!

I had been under a significant amount of stress and was struggling to cope with the emotional and physical toll it was taking. When working with Helen I always felt safe and at ease, knowing that we were actively working together and making progress. I left each session feeling better than when I arrived. Now I feel calmer, more confident and like I have control over my life again. I can identify moments and causes of stress and manage them using the tools Helen shared with me. It has been a transformative journey, and I am so grateful to have worked with her.

The first time I came I really didn’t know what to expect, I’d never done anything like this before, but I absolutely loved it. I always seem to arrive with my mind in overdrive, but as soon as I get there I feel myself relaxing. Helen somehow creates a calmness for everyone and in just few minutes I feel myself relax into it. You begin to really feel your body, you begin to feel your mind, your self… it all starts to come together. Everything else just melts away… it’s wonderful! Most of the movements are so tiny and yet afterwards you feel stretched somehow. And it’s all so gentle. Having the three hours is just wonderful, it means you’ve got a chance to really unwind… it feels like you’re really doing something for YOU. I try to go every month now!

Helen was my ministering angel in my hour of need. I truly believe with every fibre of my being that the hypnotherapy I received from her was an integral part of my full recovery from brain surgery. In 2020 I was diagnosed with four brain aneurysms, one of which had ruptured. After emergency surgeries and 10 days in the neurological ICU, I was discharged from hospital, deeply grateful to have been treated by an outstanding neurosurgeon and to be alive but also feeling quite psychologically traumatised and dealing with significant back and neck pain due to residual blood in my spinal column.

During one excruciating, sleepless night I called Helen and asked her if she could help me, even though I was in the United States and she was in the UK. I had entrusted other family members and friends to her excellent care but now I was in need and standard therapies were woefully inadequate. I also was facing two additional brain surgeries and wanted to take a holistic approach to preparing for them.

Helen is truly remarkable. She made the time to address my immediate, acute need with a hypnotherapy session which was very powerful and then set up additional sessions with me that were tailored to prepare me for the upcoming procedures. Her deep, focused and personal approach allowed me to work on a profound level with my sub-conscious mind and gave me the strength and belief that this approach would support the success of the surgeries and accelerate my full healing and recovery process. The very nature of brain surgery is pretty daunting on every level and each time the anticipation was quite nerve-racking. Helen provided me with a personalized hynotherapy recording that definitely enabled me to be calm and steady and in an open, positive state of mind.

Today, I am able to count myself among the 5% of people who have not only survived but have no residual cognitive or neurological damage as a result of a ruptured brain aneurysm. There is no question in my mind that Helen’s hypnotherapy treatment was a critical factor.

The yoga workshop was an absolutely wonderful experience and I would like to thank you very much. I really loved the session, you are an excellent teacher and explain things so well , it was so gentle and relaxing , I felt like I was floating the rest of the afternoon. I’m sorry I was yawning so much but I think that was stress release, and I felt deeply tired later in the day and slept like a log!

Highly recommend Helen, she changed my life. I could not have fought my cancer without [the hypnotherapy work] we did together before my diagnosis. She is truly amazing.

Loved your workshop Helen …if I’m honest I was dubious about the 3 hours but I needn’t have been concerned… it was perfect. Left feeling so relaxed and energised at the same time. Really enjoyed your teaching methods – in my opinion an absolutely essential  luxury. Thank you. I will be booking for next month.

I didn’t realise that I had a bad knee to start with, but I could definitely feel a difference [between the two] when we tested them at the start and I couldn’t feel that discomfort when we’d done the exercise.

Having trained in hypnotherapy with Helen I was already familiar with her excellent work, and now speaking as a client I am thrilled to get to give her a review – I cannot recommend her highly enough. For a sensitive, caring, intuitive, gentle, positive and effective therapist, look no further.

After my hypnotherapy sessions with Helen and listening to the recordings daily, I had my foot operation. I felt concerned immediately before the operation but not over-anxious and I could control my reaction to the anxiety, ie I wasn’t in floods of tears and shaking [as I had been previously].

Two incisions were made, one an inch long and the other 3 inches long, and two bones were broken and screwed and stapled in place.

After a week my wound was checked and the nurses were shocked that I’d only had the operation a week ago. They said it looked like [they would expect to see] after 3 weeks of healing, not 1 week. There was minimal swelling and no bruising and both incisions [were] very clean due to the healing, [with] no additional bleeding from the wound sites … I didn’t even have any bruising from the canulla [and] I bruise so easily.

Hypnotherapy really helped me with [both] my anxiety about the operation and the fast healing.

Fabulous workshop today, thank you Helen! What an amazing combination of practices… grounding, breathing, meditation, yoga, etc. Everything I love about your Make Space ethos.

A friend recommended me to Helen as I was having panic attacks, was feeling very emotional and was not sleeping well. I had given up my voluntary job as an adviser because I did not feel strong enough in myself to help others. Any sort of deadline would make me start to panic, and this was not the person I was used to being. Having never done hypnotherapy before, I felt nervous about it and was worried about the loss of control. Helen is kind and has a gentle and reassuring manner. She explained carefully what would happen, and I immediately felt safe and trusted her. She has a lovely voice – very calm and reassuring while ‘under hypnosis’. Helen went out of her way to help me at short notice and her sessions calmed me down and gave me techniques to use which were invaluable when I started to feel anxious again. Working with her has been a pleasure as well as extremely helpful. I would highly recommend going to see her.

WOW! I found the whole day fascinating. Helen is a knowledgeable and entertaining teacher. She is passionate about her subject and shares the background and science as well as the techniques at the perfect pace for a diverse group to keep, while carefully supporting all involved. I went for a walk when I got home and noticed I was standing taller already! I look forward to incorporating the techniques into my day to improve my posture and bone health. If you get the chance to attend a session with Helen – DO IT!

Your talk to the Osteoporosis Society on Monday was brilliant really empowering!

I sought Helen’s help because, having been to one of her amazing yoga sessions, I knew she was extremely professional but also a deeply caring and spiritual person. The [hypnotherapy] session I had with her was very relaxing and highly effective. She listened carefully, explained fully and tailored everything exactly to my needs. Because of this, and her expert knowledge of hypnotherapy, I feel like the issue I trusted her with was fully addressed and I feel wonderful! I have no reservations in recommending Helen, she is a brilliant therapist!

I contacted Helen when I was struggling to cope with both physical and mental health issues [and] navigating multiple related challenges.

Helen crafted a personalized recording which enabled me to cope with an upcoming recurring medical procedure, the first [experience] of which had been very painful. I listened each night to the recording, which fundamentally reshaped my mindset to shift my association [of the procedure, to] healing [rather than] pain. On the day of the next procedure I felt much calmer and the pain level was substantially more manageable, enabling me to feel fully equipped to complete the series.

I have benefited tremendously from my sessions with Helen and cannot recommend her highly enough.
