As a first time mother to be, I was a bit anxious during my pregnancy about the upcoming labour. I spoke with Barbara and arranged to have a hypnobirthing session when I was 35 weeks. It was a wonderfully relaxing and safe session with Barbara and I felt happy and content afterwards and I got on with the rest of my pregnancy as normal. What was miraculous was the effect that session had on me that came into effect the moment my waters broke and labour commenced a few weeks later. I was overcome with a feeling of calmness, courage and strength and genuinely enjoyed my birth experience. My husband and the midwives kept saying how they couldn’t understand how calm I was and i truly believe it was this calmness that helped me have such a positive birth experience. I couldn’t recommend Barbara enough – I am forever grateful for everything she did for me in preparing me for the birth of my baby boy!

I had a fantastic experience with Barbara. After being in a car crash I was very anxious. My friend recommended that I do a session with Barbara to help me process the trauma I experienced. I cannot begin to explain the dramatic shift in my mindset after just one session with her. I left the session (which was online due to covid) feeling like my old self again, and incredibly calm and in control. She is gifted at what she does and I have been recommending her to friends and family since!

I brought my 15 year old daughter to see Barbara as she was stressed in school and also with a friendship that was dissolving. She was a little nervous going in, Barbara made her feel relaxed and safe and she said it was a very tranquil environment. She talked the process through with my daughter so there were no surprises. When she was finished she was very much at ease and after a week or two seemed to be much less stressed, able to be more objective about things and was much happier in herself. The tips and coping mechanisms Barbara taught her were hugely beneficial in school, and when things would have previously caused anxiety now were manageable. She was also much more pragmatic in relation to the broken-down friendship, allowing her to grieve it’s loss but remember the good times, but to also realise it was better for her that it was finished. I’m very grateful to Barbara for the sensitive and positive way that she helped my daughter, and by extension the whole family. I would recommend Barbara to anyone looking for help and guidance. Thank you Barbara!

I had two wonderful sessions with Barbara. It was the first time that I experienced Hypnotherapy. I went to Barbara to help me with issues with my Chest. I found the sessions to be useful and I felt energised afterwards. I would highly recommend Barbara. Her approach is unique and I feel good after the sessions with her.

I have had several sessions with Barbara for anxiety. Barbara is very understanding and has a gift for knowing what direction to take the session. Each session is so reassuring and calming. By the end of the hour I’m feeling relaxed and have optimism for a continued feeling of peace and well being

Having smoked for many years and tried several methods to stop smoking unsuccessfully, I did one hypnotherapy session with Barbara and I haven’t smoked since. She addressed my concerns about weight gain and that has not been an issue either. I have been in many situations in the past weeks whereby I historically would have reached for a cigarette, but it has not crossed my mind to smoke. The atmosphere during our session was very relaxed and I could not recommend Barbara more highly.

I have had issues with hay-fever for years, and get anxious every year about it, worrying about it even before I had the symptoms. My session helped calm me down and reduce this anxiety, and I have not had any issues with hay-fever this year at all. Highly recommend if anyone has similar kind of anxiety about a similar issue!

Barbara is an amazing therapist who has great listening skills and is very compassionate. She is very much client focused and will find the best way to help you achieve your goals. I can only highly recommend her.

I have only had one session with Barbara so far and I can’t speak highly enough of it. The session itself was fantastic and left me feeling calm and relaxed with a deep feeling of confidence. I can’t wait for my next session as I know I will come out feeling just as good. Even though it has been a few weeks since my first session I still feel the effects of it everyday. Barbara is so compassionate and empathetic and demonstrates her knowledge and expertise in a very kind and non judgemental way.
