Please read through the testimonials below from some of Viv Kenchington’s clients from both Bath and Atworth Clinics.
I came to Viv as a last resort for anxiety/depression despite many antidepressants and other treatments throughout my entire adult life. I cannot recommend Viv enough- she has totally ‘re-wired my brain’ and I now live a completely improved, happier life. She has a wonderful approach and makes you feel totally at ease from the initial appointment. Viv explains the science behind hypnotherapy and it makes total sense. I believe she has changed the root cause of my anxiety, rather than masking the symptoms. I am now a year free of antidepressants; something I only could have dreamed about before. I cannot thank or recommend Viv enough, and would encourage anyone to explore the options she might have to support you.
Viv has helped create in me the ability to consistently make confident and natural decisions in my life. I have moved from severe social anxiety into exploring new places and meeting new people, not only with ease but with enjoyment. Her tracking system allowed me to visually see my mental health recovery and instilled real joy to see how I improved over time.
Thank you so much for all your help! IEMT has been amazing and enlightening in how this treatment has helped me move forward. I can start my life again. I can’t thank you enough!
I saw Viv for 4 sessions of IEMT, and it was the ‘Hit me with it’, approach that I needed. I had nowhere to go, I had to digest it, it was so clear cut, very different to other therapies that I have done. It was an invaluable experience, challenging – I had to stand back, reflect and face the music.
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
I just wanted to let you know how I got on with my trip to Australia. Well, it was wonderful! You would never know that I had ever had a problem with travel sickness!
I was just like any other passenger; I was so relieved and happy it was unbelievable .
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and I’m sure we will be visiting again. I want to say thank you for all the help you gave me in overcoming my problem. I shall be recommending you to my friends, well I have already.
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 is a really gifted therapist who has helped and inspired me to recover my enthusiasm for life, develop a greater sense of self-determination and overcome some of the lingering impact of long-term trauma. Working with Viv has enabled me to develop practical strategies for coping with stress and emotional dysregulation as well as better sleep and relaxation. She’s also helped me find the mental space and clarity to set clearer goals for the future and a greater belief in myself to reach them. I feel I’ve made more progress more quickly than with many of the talking therapies I’ve tried over the years, and it’s been a relief not to have to delve into the past. Working with Viv is a really positive and forward-looking experience and I’ve loved my weekly sessions with her.
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!!!
Viv’s new ‘The Wash Away River’ relaxation track for children has been an instant success with my children. We have been listening to Viv’s tracks at bedtime now for about a year and it’s a part of our day that we all look forward to. ‘The Wash Away River’ is both calming and affirming, the words, rhythm, and imagery are just beautiful and I know are having a positive impact. Prioritising our children’s mental health and wellbeing is so important and I am thankful to have wonderful tools like ‘The Wash Away River’ to use with my family. Thank you Viv
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!
The brain is complex, and without management can be polarising to performance and wellbeing regardless of previous successes, senior positions, roles and responsibilities. I have held various senior roles with much success, however, like a lot of people suffer at times with anxiety, loss of confidence, and mental health issues for a number of reasons. I came to Viv in a desperate state and was signed off work with stress and anxiety. With Viv’s expertise and guided support I quickly understood what was going on in my brain, why it was happening, the triggers and importantly over time ways to manage my brain to develop new coping methods. I not only went back to my role but exceeded all objectives to finish the fiscal year as a top performer and was also promoted. I could not have done this without Viv and solution-based hypnotherapy. The best ROI is intangible, you cannot put a price on your mental health, not only am I performing well at work but family life has improved massively too. I will continue seeing Viv on an ad hoc basis now to ensure old habits do not creep back in!
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!
Viv was amazing -she was so caring and understanding and helped to give me the necessary physiological and physical attributes for the positivity and calmness that I needed.
Viv helped me regain strength and I went into the hospital to give birth feeling relaxed with whatever happened. I could almost hear Viv’s voice calming me. Thank you Viv.
Viv helped me through the most difficult period of my life after a sudden breakup and feeling lost after graduating from my masters. She helped me rediscover who I was and got me in touch with myself again and most importantly helped me to be more positive. My mental health is an ongoing battle but without her help and care, I would be in a much worse position than I am now. She is very caring and attentive and very easy to talk to, I will definitely contact her again when I feel I need a ‘top-up’.
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.
Lucy came to see me in her Christmas (2017) break as a Trainee Vet with a major problem, she was scared of blood. Her reactions were really debilitating – nausea, numbing of hands and feet and loss of sight and hearing. Anxieties were rising as she knew the practical side of things were about to hot up in her training at the Royal Veterinary College London. I saw Lucy four times and then received the following email.
I have some good news! I signed myself up to help with blood donation from some animals today and I was immediately excited about it. I was absolutely fine throughout the whole thing, it never even crossed my mind that I would have a reaction! I was in very close proximity to the needle being put in and blood being drawn, I even had to hold the vein when the needle came out and got blood on my hands and thought nothing of it. Before that would have been a nightmare for me!
So, thank you very much! You have no idea how much I appreciate what you’ve done for me! I will continue to listen to my tracks and will still let you know if I ever feel I need more sessions. Just wanted to let you know about the good work you’ve done! Thank you again
“It’s been just over a year since my course of hypnotherapy with Viv and I can’t quite emphasise how different my life is! I was a vet student with a phobia of blood so she genuinely saved my career. I’ve since been un-phased in countless situations where I would have previously fainted. Having hypnotherapy was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and I’d really recommend it to anyone thinking it might help them. I’m truly grateful for Viv’s help!”
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 had been wanting to give up smoking for ages but always made up excuses for not doing it, like work pressures, or other things getting in the way. Then it all seemed to get a bit serious, I started experiencing chest pains. I am a fit person, who enjoys cycling and running and am in my 40’s so it was really time to take action. Up visiting some friends in Wiltshire a friend of mine (sick of hearing me talk about quitting) told me to put my money where my mouth was and book in with the hypnotherapist that had helped him. Viv taught me in the session that it was not about just giving up it was about stopping for good. Viv explained how my mind was working and why I was not being able to tip the balance. Her teaching in the session about the conflicting minds in my brain, seemed to flick the switch that I needed. Finally I could understand who was in control of this habit, and quite frankly, I was not about to be ruled by a 6 year old!
I haven’t looked back and have now been free from that disgusting habit for over a year now. (I can say that now I’m an ex-smoker, Thanks loads 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 went to speak to Viv ahead of giving birth to my second child. Having had a long and traumatic first labour, I was keen to explore ways in which I could calm my mind and body and prepare for a more positive experience, in which I felt more in control and relaxed.
Viv was excellent. She really listened when I shared my fears and provided gentle support, guidance and sound advice. Based on our conversations, she then created a personalised recording which I could listen to every night. The CD was a huge success and was fundamental to helping me sink into deep relaxation and visualisation right up until my labour, which was a fantastically peaceful and joyful experience. I am convinced that Viv helped me tremendously on this journey and is in part to thank for the gloriously tranquil and happy little girl I have with me today.
Thank you Viv. You are a star and I’ll keep that CD with me forever!
One day whilst on Twitter I spotted a tweet from a lady called Viv Kenchington. She was a reflexologist near me who was looking for people to have free solution-focused hypnotherapy sessions whilst she was training. I tweeted her and asked if it worked for PND (Post Natal Depression) and the response ‘Yes!’ was immediate. We arranged a date for the following week to meet.
As soon as I met Viv I felt relaxed, she has a wonderful calm and friendly manner. Keen to find out why I was interested in hypnotherapy I briefly explained my situation. I was reassured that this type of hypnotherapy wasn’t anything like the kind you see on the television and that I wouldn’t suddenly start milking cows when I heard a bell ring. Viv was wonderfully clear in her detailed explanation of how the brain works, and how it functions when a person has anxiety and depression. The penny dropped there and then for me and it all made perfect sense. I couldn’t wait to get started, our sessions were to be an hour long so not least the thought of lying down with my eyes closed and no small people demanding things from me was incentive enough! For the next 8 weeks I visited Viv for regular hypnotherapy sessions. They were amazing. Peaceful. Relaxing. And yet strangely exhausting, I always slept extremely well after a session. Viv’s voice was soothing and even now if I have trouble sleeping I ‘hear’ her in my head and am instantly more at peace. She’d ask me what had been good about my week, and then asked questions so that I would come up with solutions on how to make it better. Her enthusiasm and passion for helping people is infectious, she would listen to me intently and work so hard to help.
My sessions have stopped now, but I know I can always go back if ever I need to. I credit Viv as being a huge part of my recovery. Whilst seeing her I stopped taking the tablets, and miraculously so far have not needed them again. She saved me. She helped me clear my brain of thoughts it didn’t need, creating space to be more creative (I started my blog whilst seeing her!) Hypnotherapy is amazing when you find someone who is passionate about it and who you can trust and feel comfortable with, and I felt that with Viv.
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
Tim came to me with a phobia of flying which had meant that he didn’t go on foreign holidays anymore, but after finally taking the plunge and booking a short break away to New York City, he decided to give hypnotherapy a try as the pending flight was soon to be upon him. I received this message a week after he returned home from his trip to the US…
‘Just to let you know that the flights went really well, definitely a lot better than before, not so nervous and now looking forward to my next trip to Amsterdam at the end of the month’.
Before seeing Viv for hypnotherapy I would continuously worry about anything and everything to the point where I could hardly sleep and it seemed to be getting worse as I got older.
After beginning a course of hypnotherapy I found the problem wasn’t just me worrying it was the fact that I avoided dealing with lots of situations and instead would put them off and worry about the fact that I’ve not dealt with them. To say having treatment was life changing sounds far fetched but it really was for me. Since having the hypnotherapy I’m now so much more confident, I don’t get stressed, or worry about things, If I’m able to deal with them I will and if I can’t I don’t let them keep me awake at night and I’m sleeping through. I’m so much more happier now even my friends have noticed the change in me.
I can’t believe more people don’t use hypnotherapy and I’d really recommend it.
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.
Helen, Bradford on Avon
I’ve been having sessions for about 6 weeks, and I can honestly say that already I am noticing positive differences in my life.
I am seeing Viv to help with my general anxiety and panic attacks, she is so positive and encouraging and this has helped keep me focused on my goal of learning to live without anxiety. I find relaxing very difficult, but by using the relaxation CD before I go to sleep, I have found I fall asleep quickly, and don’t feel tired throughout the day, this in turn has had an effect on my diet as I no longer feel the need to snack from tiredness so that’s an added bonus!
I’m enjoying my hobbies again which when I’m anxious I don’t feel able to do. My anxiety has decreased and I am learning to control any panics I have. I feel so much more in control of my mind which in turn stops my body over reacting. Viv has explained how my mind is causing me to perpetuate problems and without really noticing she has encouraged me to look for the positives in any situation and break the cycle of anxiety. I’m really enjoying the sessions, it’s lovely to just be quiet, relax and drift off, and I’m really pleased with the progress I’m making, thank you so much Viv!
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.
I hadn’t told Viv about the Psoriasis that I had on my arms and legs when I went to see Viv to get help with general anxieties, but after 4 sessions I couldn’t believe it, it was clearing up! I always thought that my stress levels contributed to the problem and now I know this to be true as when my anxiety was reducing so did my skin condition. Thanks again Viv.
