Hi Viv, I just wanted to express my thanks and appreciation for the work you’ve done with my wife Sarah.  I saw it as a bit of a gamble, and I know she was hesitant and resistant at first, but it’s made a huge difference to our lives and it’s wonderful for me to now see her as a much better version of herself and closer to how she was when we met just over 10 years ago.  Our holiday in June was wonderful in comparison to the one we had last year which was a bit of a disaster as a result of her fears. I myself rarely hear the last step on our nightly Viv session (the Relaxation track) so it’s helped me get to sleep too. I know it’s your job, I know you’ve been paid, but it never hurts to receive a bit of praise and appreciation, right? You’ve gone above and beyond what was expected. Let’s hope that same magic works with our daughter too! 

Thank you 

Retirement finally encouraged me to address an issue  from my teens, the trauma of which has restricted aspects of my life ever since. Viv’s solution focussed hypnotherapy was the perfect solution for me and I now have the confidence and peace to be able to enjoy life to the full. 

Through Viv’s skill, listening, understanding and caring I have been able to process the issue and my sense of relief at the very positive outcome cannot be emphasised sufficiently. Weekly sessions left me feeling confident and positive. The recordings provided are excellent and I continue to listen to ensure refreshing sleep night after night. Thank you Viv, for all that you have enabled me to achieve – I am so pleased that I made that initial enquiry.  I can thoroughly recommend both Viv and solution focussed hypnotherapy. 

Viv was instrumental in helping me relax and keep a clear head while I headed toward donating my left kidney. She also helped me write my “Preparation, Operation and Recuperation Mission Statement”.
We picked it apart a few times, making sure we got all the wording right for my brain and body to absorb all the positivity. This played an integral part in keeping my head on my shoulders leading toward the op and helped me find a route to positive reinforcement for my healing.
I was so well prepared, I entered the surgery without a care in the world! And my healing was swift and complete, as we’d planned!
Thanks Viv for supporting me through this one-time epic experience!!!

I went to Viv because I needed to improve my mental attitude when competing (as a professional Show jumper). She really helped me understand my brain, and why I feel how I do sometimes and how to control that and stay focused on competing. It also has really helped me with coaching other riders. I now have tools to cope with nerves and anxiety and if I need a top-up Viv is always on hand! So glad I went and I highly recommend her to anyone!

I started having hypnotherapy with Viv after I began to suffer from a combination of health and social anxiety that was making it hard for me to cope with some aspects of my job, and eventually led to a full-blown panic attack one day. The sessions are so relaxing, and have taught me so much about how the brain actually works – what my brain was doing when it was producing this unwanted panic, and what I could do to stop it. Just understanding that is the first, all-important step towards taking back control, and I now feel so much better, having learnt coping mechanisms that enable me to stay calm, focus and perform well at work and in other high pressure situations. I can highly recommend her to anyone struggling with anxiety or stress! Thanks, Viv!

My experience of low self-esteem and depression has been transformed by my sessions with Viv I am now much more positive and can rationalise successfully. Viv has enabled me to move forward and to grasp ‘life’ with both hands I’m much more focused and looking to the future I can’t thank her enough.

I first contacted Viv to help work on my sporting performance, although the insight I gained from working with her has benefitted many areas of my life.
During our first session, she explained how the mind works and how she could help. Everything Viv said was very logical and made perfect sense.
During our sessions, Viv didn’t focus on negatives at all, only positives and I quickly began to realise the way my mind was working was causing me unnecessary anxiety, which in turn was holding me back from really enjoying the things I love to do.
My sessions with Viv helped me to quickly recognise when my energy is being wasted on negative thoughts and helped me find the internal tools to turn that energy into finding solutions.

I was struggling big time with my sleep patterns, initially hormone-based but had got into a bad habit of waking up early hours of the morning and not returning to sleep.
When I met Viv in her lovely cosy room, I felt very at ease and Viv’s explanation of how the brain worked helped me understand what was actually happening. Viv is very empathetic and was very easy to talk to as well as having good listening skills. After a course of treatment and listening to Viv’s hypnotherapy at home, things improved lots. Viv was always so pleased to hear how my week had progressed and was genuinely excited when my sleep started to improve.
I would have no hesitation in returning or recommending Viv, what a lovely lady inside and out 🙂

I undertook a course of Solution Focussed Hypnotherapy with Viv last summer to address anxiety issues. I’m not a natural talker or someone that likes to seek help so it was a big step for me to even book an initial consultation. Viv’s manner, skills and the structure of the sessions were perfect for me, allowing me to talk openly and the direction of the sessions would explore many aspects of life, guiding me to evaluate what is actually important, to cherish that and to not waste time, energy and worry on anything else. I still practice the techniques and listen to the relaxation recordings provided as part of my daily routine.

I decided to try hypnotherapy after my anxiety began to worsen at university, affecting my everyday life. I was apprehensive at first but Viv was so welcoming and put my mind at ease. I found the process to be really effective. After sessions with Viv, my anxiety eased as I began to calm my mind and regain control of my thoughts. I was able to do this by following the advice and techniques I had been taught in sessions. Viv really helped me to get back on track, I would highly recommend her practice to anyone who is also suffering from anxiety.

Firstly thank you so much for your help. The flight to Mauritius went well and I felt more in control after all the work we have done and I felt more relaxed. What’s more though, is on the flight back I fell asleep on parts of it and felt almost refreshed when landing in Heathrow. I was so excited about this, just amazing, as that was a first for me, so very pleased about that, and I hope it will continue. Thank you so much again.

“I can’t recommend Viv highly enough.  When I started seeing her in the summer of last year I was really not in a very good place.  I was suffering from terrible anxiety which was causing me to feel extremely low and struggling to cope with normal everyday life.  I saw Viv on a weekly basis over the course of a few months and it has made such a difference.  Viv is so kind and caring and has helped me to understand where my anxiety comes from and therefore how to manage it.  I now feel much better equipped to deal with life and it’s many challenges, I can’t thank her enough. “

Viv helped me out so much with my anxiety. I was going through some horrible stuff in my head and she really helped me with everything. I am such a confident and relaxed person now all thanks to all of her help. she’s so great I would recommend to anyone.

I came to Viv to help me lose weight. In reality, I needed Viv to help me refocus, change my decision making and ultimately take control of my actions. I have come away having found my positivity which helps me make better choices and also lets me recognise when I make poor ones and not beat myself up over it. I have lost half a stone whilst with Viv (and continue to do so) and now exercise (my way) on a regular basis. Amazingly, none of this is a chore and whilst I have less of the bad things, I do not miss any of it.

See Viv and see what she can do to help, I would recommend her to anyone

I first booked an appointment to see Viv as I had been through some bad trauma mentally and it was affecting my life, mostly my sleep and my horse riding. It’s the first time I have ever had hypnotherapy so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Viv put me at ease and explained how the brain works and what was happening to mine. I have learned how to change my thought process and how to get rid of the negative and focus on the positive. I feel better knowing how and why the brain reacts the way it does, and once Viv explained it all to me I felt better already, just knowing that I wasn’t going mad! I really looked forward to my sessions each week and can’t recommend Viv enough for all of her help. I won’t hesitate to go back and see her if I ever feel the need for some more support. Thanks again Viv x

Just WOW
Can’t recommend Viv highly enough ️

Viv has done amazing work with my son to support and uplift his confidence in many areas. I highly recommend her solution focused methods, and wholeheartedly endorse her practice. Viv is warm, approachable, effective and is able to provide a service many parents and families can benefit from.

I became aware of a few things that were negatively impacting both work and personal life. I contacted Viv and the solution focused hypnotherapy approach really helped and put me back on a positive track, it increased my energy and motivation, while I and others close to me noticed the gradual improvement.

Viv is very personable and professional. She gets to understand you as a person via an initial discussion and explains the theory behind solutions and what path of action is required.

I very much recommend Viv and encourage others to seek her services. I know if I ever need support again, I will be contacting her.

I booked to see Viv after losing all my confidence riding my horse following a bad fall last year. I was plagued with negative thinking and constantly waiting for bad things to happen, I felt like I would never be able to enjoy riding again, definitely never jump or hack by myself confidently again. After having a few sessions I felt a noticeable change in my mindset and I had a new outlook in not only riding my horse but in my life in general. I’m now able to hack out confidently not only with others but by myself and have managed to start jumping again and actually enjoying having my horse. Viv has a fantastic way of explaining things and puts you at ease straight away and makes the sessions interactive and positive. I would 100% recommended Viv and I feel the sessions I had have been invaluable to my on going health and happiness!

I would definitely recommend using Viv and have found her help and support invaluable. I wasn’t really sure how this all worked, but had nothing to lose so thought I’d give it a go. Viv explained everything so well and made things so easy to understand. I don’t mind admitting I was in quite a dark place when I first attended and having never been in that situation before I found it really hard to deal with. The sessions with Viv helped me to understand what was happening to me and thankfully see things in a different light… something that I will continue to use going forward. I finally feel like my “old self” again now and am really looking forward the year ahead – spending time with my family and friends and doing things that make us happy! Thanks Viv… You’ve been amazing x

I was struggling with some anxiety issues which I thought would sort themselves out. After a period of time and the start of a new year I thought I would tackle these issues head on. I had never tried hypnotherapy before but thought I had nothing to loose by giving it a try. I can’t honestly thank Viv enough! Just by changing my thought process and learning to relax it has really done the trick! Viv is so understanding and calming to be around we even had a laugh in the process.

Viv has helped me transform so much in the past year. I found myself lost and unsure but with Viv’s help, I’ve come to realise my potential.
I’m now able to concentrate on the positive aspects of whatever situation I’m in. As a result, I’m mentally stronger a much happier person.

Viv is amazing. Since seeing her I’ve started a new job, which I love, my agility has improved, my little dog and I are now grade 4. My general persona has improved no end, I look forward to each day now.

If you are contemplating on hypnotherapy for treatment and not sure if it’s for you, come and see Viv, she’ll answer any questions, put your worries behind you and set a plan thats suitable for you and your needs!

Viv is fantastic – I’ve noticed a huge change in myself, not only in confidence but in mindfulness and the ability to cope with many situations in ways I would have struggled with before.

Around Viv, in her lovely cosy studio, I felt instantly comfortable and relaxed. She focuses on exactly what you need there and then and truly cares about improving your life.

Its nothing like ‘in the movies’ and I’d highly recommend hypnotherapy treatment!

I would definitely recommend Viv. I had a series of sessions last year and came away from each and everyone recharged and feeling a better person. She is wonderful, her voice is soothing and the whole experience is very positive. It is a very powerful tool to help you focus on what’s really important and what’s going to make a difference to the way you live and work. She helped me no end in both my personal life and my business life.

I went to see Viv for help with my fear of flying. In half term I went on a plane and I can not tell you the difference my sessions with Viv have made. Not just on the flight itself (which was amazing!) but the build up and the day itself. I was able to enjoy the build up to my holiday, enjoy the journey and enjoy the airport experience with my children. I could keep a level head while packing and leaving the house. On the plane I was able to be amazed by what was below me, what I could see and be able to share all this with my boys. During my sessions Viv made me fell so comfortable and calm, I can not recommend Viv enough and I will certainly be going back to see her if there were to be any other issues that arise in my life! Thanks Viv, here’s to the 10 hour flight to Sri Lanka!

Viv has worked wonders for me! I was struggling with anxiety and depression, not being able to achieve what I really wanted in life. After sessions with viv I changed my career, got married and now have a beautiful little girl! It’s completely changed my minds focus, and knowing I can go for a top up every now and then really helps!

I can’t thank Viv enough for the help she has given my 11 year old daughter.  She has helped her find her ‘superpower’ – which is confidence!  Together with the hypnotherapy and talking to Viv about all the positive things in her life, she has turned a corner and become less anxious and more able to deal with new situations in a positive manner.  The CD Viv gave her to listen to before sleep, helped her to relax and fall asleep which is something she had been struggling with for a long time.  My daughter can now go to school rested and free from worry and is generally less anxious and has learnt coping mechanisms through positive thought.

I’m a very busy businessman and for me, public speaking has long been a cause of considerable anxiety. The stress in the lead up to a speaking event would be overwhelming and would cause panic attacks. This is not helpful in a fast paced business environment. Determined to tackle this, I have tried toastmasters and various other courses in the hope that I could control the stress and anxiety. However, none of these produced the results I was searching for.

I met Viv, whose wonderful calm and positive nature filled me with confidence in her ability to help. She immediately took a different approach to that of anyone I had seen in the past. This was surprisingly powerful and over the course of 9 sessions has completely transformed my approach to public speaking.

I still feel a twinge of nerves before I speak, but this is excited energy, over which I have full control. I would have no hesitation in recommending Viv to anyone in my situation.

Working with Viv has been transformational; her enthusiasm, empathy and professional approach has enabled me to re-assess, re-evaluate and re-adjust my approach both to my creative work and to my life in general.

I am so grateful I have been able to take advantage of this therapy which works subtly on many different levels. Thank you Viv.

I was stuck in my own head and dwelling on a succession of negative events and I suppose feeling a little sorry for myself, looking for excuses to carry on smoking rather than reasons to quit which I really wanted to beat once and for all, and even though I knew that was ridiculous I just felt I was in this downward spiral of emotions which made me feel even more frustrated. Something needed to change.

I was introduced to Viv’s hypnotherapy and after the very first session I felt more optimistic about things almost straight away.  I was given insight in to the complexity of how a brain works and how you can forge negative patterns in your head by over thinking things, and I was encouraged by the fact those thoughts can be replaced with positive ones so your brain becomes re-tuned, so to speak.

After a handful of sessions I could really feel that downward spiral of emotions coming to a halt and then slowly rise upwards in to a more positive place. I stopped smoking, started eating better, and really found myself gathering momentum in that other direction.

The whole process has permanently changed me to a degree I’d say. I can see when I am being negative now and I try and quickly respond to that by mentally giving myself a slap around the face if needed to get back on track.  All in all I can’t recommend Viv’s expertise enough. She’s calm, relaxed and appears to enjoy the process and the success it brings as much if not more than the person she’s helping.

I have seen Viv for 10 sessions of hypnotherapy I have found this has improved my confidence and outlook in life making me feel more confident.  I find Viv very relaxing to be with and very professional in her manner I highly recommend her to anyone

Dear Viv, I just wanted to send a little card to say thank you for all your help over the last six months. You’ve made a huge difference to my life, I’m quite astounded by how differently I think now. I will remember what you have taught me for the rest of my life. Wishing you all the best.

I have recently started seeing Viv for hypnotherapy. I am a very busy mum of 3 small children and was finding that I was so stressed and busy that I was starting to lose my fun factor.

Viv has a wonderful way of explaining why we feel stressed and how we can learn to enjoy and live more in the now/ for today. I am really starting to change how I think and feel and not only am I feeling the benefit of these changes but so is my husband and children. The sessions have a powerful and immediate effect. I left feeling clearer and ready for anything. The hypnosis is very relaxing and Viv is always very encouraging. I trust her totally and feel very comfortable during sessions.

I wondered whether hypnosis could help with general day to day stress and anxiety, presuming it was mainly a therapy for phobias but I am hooked. I would have no hesitation in recommending hypnotherapy with Viv…in fact I have already done so. It is life changing. I cannot thank Viv enough for helping me chill out and enjoy parenthood.
