"XX was apprehensive initially with the dog but then gained her confidence to feed her treats. We met up again with them in their home today which I thought would be the real test, but she was amazing! She sought the dog out, guiding her away from the food and stroking her! Our friends, knowing her fear, were very impressed and even commented on how XX's posture has changed. This is definitely the biggest progress to date. We’ve climbed a few steps up the ladder! Thank you so much!"

Mrs. G, Tunbridge Wells

I’m doing really well, I have only had one thought since our last session and I was able to get it out of my head in a few minutes. Again I did it without realising and since then haven’t had another thought which I wasn’t able to control.

Miss S, Tunbridge Wells - Overthinking/Anxiety

"Thank you so much for all the help you have given our daughter. We really didn’t know where to go with the fear but we all feel a lot more confident now to be able to help her through this. She doesn't seem to have the look of panic on her face anymore, nor does she turn back to join us when she sees a dog. She has the tools now to help her. I’m hoping that she will be able to manage on her own now but we will certainly come back if we think she needs a little boost."

Mrs. G, Sevenoaks - Fear of Dogs

"Thank you very much for seeing my daughter. She is so much happier and settled. I am very grateful." 

Mrs. S., Tunbridge Wells

I cannot praise you enough and am so grateful for empowering me. I feel stronger, more confident and at peace after only two sessions! Truly remarkable and more effective than counselling. Thank you so much for “getting it” immediately and playing an instrumental role in helping me let go of past trauma and going on to have a positive home birth. In itself this is already absolutely huge, but has also helped me realise what has been holding me back which has been life changing in the most positive way.

Mrs. J - Birth Trauma

I've been feeling a lot better and more positive recently especially when listening to the download you sent me.

Mr. N - Confidence

My husband and I both cannot believe the change in our daughter. We’ve barely heard the noise and can also see that she is using the breathing techniques and holding her fingers/thumbs together when she needs to. We’ve been so impressed.

Mr. and Mrs. B - Anxiety/Tics. Hypnotherapy

Thank you very much for the session and also the download. Both have been incredibly helpful, I am absolutely amazed how in two sessions you have got to right to the core of some massive “stuff” for me! I have been feeling a massive shift in realisation of a few things.

Mrs J, - Birth Trauma/Hypnotherapy

Your download has really helped. Since we saw you, my daughter has spent all day with her puppy and taken her on walks, fed her, cuddled her, and helped teach her tricks. It has been amazing. I have been telling all my family and friends how amazing it has been. I never thought my daughter would be able to do all these things but she has become pretty much inseparable and best buddies with her puppy. I really can’t thank you enough.

Miss S, Tunbridge Wells - Hypnotherapy | Dog Phobia

I have noticed so much change. I am much more relaxed and when I choose to stop work I stop. I am choosing things for me and feeling that my time off is that, time off. My day off this week really felt like a day off. There is a definite change – thank you! I feel so much more free to enjoy both work time work and play time!

Ms. H, Tunbridge Wells - Hypnotherapy | Work/Life Balance

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your support over the last few months. Having your support, and that couple of hours to myself to process everything, made such a difference to how I’ve approached everything and I really can’t thank you enough. You’ll be glad to hear I also listened to your recording in the hospital - the triage room stressed me out a bit but it refocused me beautifully.

Mrs. C, Sevenoaks - Hypnotherapy | Birth Trauma

I came to see Anne shortly before the birth of my second child, seeking help to overcome a previous traumatic birth and to make a decision on what type of birth would be best this time. The time we spent together was invaluable to help me process what had happened last time, overcome fears, make clear decisions and learn relaxation techniques (useful beyond birth). I have no doubt that this is why my son’s birth was as good as I could have hoped for, enabling me to feel calm, positive and in control, before, during and after. I am so thankful for Anne’s help, kindness and support and will recommend her to anyone.

Mrs. C, Tunbridge Wells - Hypnotherapy | Birth Trauma

I contacted Anne in the hope of feeling more positive about my birthing experience. It was all too easy to remember and focus on the negatives rather than the positives, and I strongly felt that I could never have another baby because I had experienced such a traumatic labour. My daughter was ten months old yet I still avoided taking about her birth and was terrified of becoming pregnant again, despite always wanting a big family. I hadn't considered how dramatic the change in my feelings would be after our first session. Anne helped me to focus on what my "perfect birth" would look like, and I came to realise that the positive aspects of my labour weren't far from the "perfect" I envisaged. I went from being terrified of becoming pregnant again, to feeling really empowered by my previous experience, and actually positive about doing it again! I'd never experienced hypnotherapy before; it's nothing like you see on TV, I would describe it more as relaxation techniques combined with mindfulness, but that doesn't do it justice. The mind is an incredibly powerful tool, and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone suffering from birth trauma. It's changed my focus on my previous birth and given me a really positive outlook on the prospect of having a second child.

Mrs. P, Tonbridge - Birth Trauma

As a very skeptical, realistic individual I didn't have a positive opinion of hypnotherapy. However, after speaking with Anne and having an open-mind, I thought I'd give it a go. What. A. Decision. I. Made! It was as if Anne pulled out multiple thorns I had been carrying all my adult life. I had no idea I had been carrying these feelings. After a few sessions with Anne, I can honestly say I feel like a whole woman for the first time in my life. I'm now self aware of me, my emotions, my being and my decisions. Absolutely incredible. I'd highly recommend hypnotherapy with Anne to anyone.

Miss N, Tunbridge Wells - Anxiety

I came to visit Anne for a reason I wasn’t sure could be dealt with by hypnotherapy as it relates to a mother / daughter relationship, but Anne immediately calmed my thoughts and said that hypnotherapy can tackle all sorts of issues. In my first session with Anne, I knew I had come to the right person. Anne was supportive and caring and had a deep understanding of my worries. I was concerned that I wouldn’t necessarily ease in to the hypnotherapy, but Anne was there with a calming voice and the right questions to work through my situation. Thank you Anne for your help and support.

Mrs W, Tunbridge Wells - Bonding/Birth Trauma

My daughter suffers with severe anxiety and we have been seeking a way to give her the tools to manage it. I am fortunate to be a colleague of Anne’s and knew I could trust her. We spoke about my daughters anxieties prior to our appointment and some of her favourite things so that when they met, all would be familiar to her. Anne was warm, calm and welcoming and my daughter settled straight away. They spoke about how the worries made her feel and the session was so focused and I saw my little girl open up. I understood more. Toward the end we relaxed into a personalised script that made both of us drift away. At the end of the session she was given a helium balloon to take her worries away. We now listen to the script every night before bed and we do a lot more talking. We talk over problems and acknowledge them before sending them away. My daughter now has the skills to manage her own anxiety with the help and support of us. It is so empowering to know that we, as parents, have the ability to help our little girl and that the support of Anne is always there.

M. Jeffs, May 2018

"I had been suffering with a very complicated family relationships and my childhood experiences for many many years. I had never talked about my childhood to anyone apart from my husband, but I know it was always giving me a negative energy. I didn't know much about hypnotherapy, so I didn't know what to expect or if it would work. I was very nervous when I went to see Anne for the first time, but she made me feel relaxed and welcome. Her approach was very calming and it was very easy to follow her instructions in a very relaxed situation. It was a strange but pleasant feeling after the session, I felt very refreshed and started to think very positively. Anne is an amazing hypnotherapist. I highly recommend her to anyone who has any issues, big or small, and they think that hypnotherapy might help. "

Mrs. L, Sevenoaks - Family Relationships and Childhood Experiences

"Anne has really helped me deal with a phobia I have which was starting to impact on my life. Anne took time to really listen without any judgment and really helped me get to the root of the problem and helped me with techniques to deal with issues of anxiety and feeling trapped. She provides a safe and caring environment to deal with your issues and discuss them with her. Hypnosis helped my sub-conscious get on the same page as my conscious mind without constantly fearing my phobia and letting it dictate my life. Hypnosis is a fantastic way to deal with issues your sub-conscious is worrying about and throughout the whole process, I knew I was in control but was in a safe place to deal with my issues. I can’t thank Anne enough for her help in letting me get my life back on track."

Mrs. S, Sevenoaks - Phobia Treatment

"We were so incredibly lucky to have the most incredible hypnobirth - thanks to you -  I still can’t believe it! We birthed at home for the most part, like you said! By the time we got to the hospital I was fully dilated and I breathed him out naturally 45 minutes later. I birthed the placenta naturally too. The midwives said it was one of the most incredible births they had seen in a very long time. Our baby was so relaxed when he was born they said it was like he didn’t realise he’d been born! He’s such a beautifully chilled baby! Everything about the birth experience was just perfect and as we visualised! So a million ‘thank yous’ from the bottom of our hearts! We will be eternally grateful for the information, advice and support you provided and hope to be able to use the principles in our lives more generally too."

Mr. and Mrs. T, Tonbridge

"I really did find the session beneficial. I have never done anything like that before so I wasn't sure what to expect but actually surprised myself with how just after the one session I felt different, so thank you." 

Mrs W - Birth Trauma - Hypnotherapy  

We both thoroughly enjoyed the course. Thank you for making it so palatable. We had a natural birth, thank you so very much. So much help for us.

Miss P - Hypnobrthing Course

My son had not long been at secondary school when he started getting bullied, he lost all his confidence, dreaded going to school and would become very upset and anxious every morning before school, he also suffered from disrupted sleep. It effected his school work and his whole attitude to life. After working with Anne I noticed an immediate change in my son, Anne has given him the tools to help him cope with his anxiety and the negative people in his life, he no longer cry’s at night, and doesn’t dread going to school any more. Rather than look at everything as a negative he is able to turn things into a positive instead. Going to Anne was the best thing we did, I would 100% recommend her to anyone. I now have my happy outgoing son back. I dread to think where we would be now had we not gone to Anne.

Mrs. D - Bullying

The whole process took about 12 hours, went smoothly and with very minimal pain relief. I admit I didn't have the time to practise as much as I would've wanted to but the hypnobirthing techniques did help a lot. For me, personally, it was the mind-set and the whole approach to giving birth that hypnobirthing advocates that helped a tremendous amount. And that Judith Flood audio track knocked me out every single time! A huge thanks to you!

Mr and Mrs V, Tunbridge Wells

We enjoyed the course and found that it provided us with tools that will undoubtedly be helpful on the day. We appreciated your professionalism and your approach to the course and will be happy to recommend you to others.

Mr R & Ms V

I would recommend Anne without a doubt!! I put off having children for years as I was so petrified of giving birth and within one session with Anne, my whole mindset had changed. She has the most incredibly calming way about her to the point we considered asking if we could pay her to be present at the birth! She truly made my first pregnancy so much easier to cope with and myself and my husband will be eternally grateful to her for that

Mrs. T, Sevenoaks - Hypnobirthing

I worked with Anne to process the birth of my first son. Whilst it was not traumatic relative to some birth experiences, it felt traumatic to me, and Anne was very supportive of me to address the emotions I associated with his arrival. The sessions felt very relaxed, calm and safe. I didn't feel judged and there was no expectation of the outcome. The actual hypnosis was not at all what I imagined (no spoon bending!), just very practical and calming visualisations, that tapped into the emotions associated with the birth, and the first months with my son. I would highly recommend the post birth trauma sessions with Anne. She has a very warm and comforting energy, and the fact that she is also a midwife was assuring.

Mrs B, Sevenoaks - Birth Trauma

I felt at ease, relaxed, confident and trusting in what Anne was saying and teaching. I liked the different media techniques, handouts mixed with projector and visual aids.

Hypnobirthing Couple, July 2013

I thoroughly enjoyed that Anne had her own midwifery background to add to the course which I think helped to gain such confidence immediately. The setting for the course was fantastic too.

Hypnobirthing Couple, July 2013

I was able to have the relaxed and natural birth I had planned - in the water and with only gas and air towards the very end. The hypnobirthing course and the various relaxation techniques you shared proved invaluable both in the lead up and on the day, not sure how I would have coped without it.

Zoe and Luca, Oct 2013

Once I had passed a certain stage I knew I could do it without pain relief. I did ask for pain relief options but then thought, 'No, I have prepared for this and I'm ready'. I was determined, positive and trusted my body to birth Lara. I used the feather visualisation mostly, trying to blow it across the room. Thank you for helping me realise that my body is capable of such wonderful things.

Serpin and Dan, Oct 2013

We really enjoyed the course, and even though it will be my second time giving birth, I am really glad we were able to do the Hypnobirthing course. It made me feel a lot more calm and confident!

Imogen and Dimitri, Jan 2014

I'm really chuffed that I've done your course. You're a fab teacher and I will spread the Hypnobirthing word whenever possible!

Polly and John, Jan 2014

Thank you so much for your support and overall for accompanying us through Hypnobirthing so wonderfully! It is such a comfort to know you are there as a support now and postnatally. Thank you so much for travelling to us for each session; we really appreciated doing the course in our own home. We will be recommending it to every pregnant woman we know!

Hannah and Vincent, Jan 2014

Our sessions with you definitely proved helpful in controlling Alex's breathing and, in particular, putting the brakes on at the crowning stage. Alex was amazing and we are all super chuffed with our new arrival!

Alex and Philippe, Feb 2014

Although it didn't go according to plan, the Hypnobirthing techniques were still really helpful and I'm so glad I did the course. I was able to cope with just gas and air, so I'm really pleased I didn't need a lot of drugs.

Helen and Richard, Feb 2014

I found the Hypnobirthing techniques very useful and used them to get me to 7cm dilated before having gas and air for the extra 5 minutes. it took to get to 10cms! Thank you so much for your expertise. I certainly feel it helped to make this a much more pleasant birth than my first and would definitely recommend Hypnobirthing to friends in the future.

Siobhan and Craig, Feb 2014

I wanted to tell you that you have been instrumental in helping me have a positive pregnancy and a good birthing experience.

Lucy and Giles, March 2014

It was an incredibly empowering and beautiful experience and we are both really grateful to you for your help in achieving this.

Kelly and Garry, May 2014

5 weeks ago I was trying to work out how I could convey my fear to the midwives strongly enough to make them reconsider letting me have a c-section. So to be sitting here now thinking how I can see why so many women opt for a home birth is a hell of a transformation. I am now adamant I would like to start in the birthing centre and in a pool (something I would NEVER have considered prior to our sessions) and is just mind blowing for me and that's all down to you. We are so thankful for everything you taught us.

Charlotte and James, June 2014

We were both so happy and proud with our birthing experience and feel strongly that it was down to the hypnobirthing techniques you taught us. We have been and will definitely continue to recommend hypnobirthing to any other expectant parents. Thank you so much!!"

Lou and Sy, July 2014

Anne's sensible and experienced approach put us both at ease. She is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable which meant we benefitted from not just the hypnotherapy but also an understanding of the physiology of giving birth. The course exceeded both our expectations and we are now just really excited and positive about the birthing process. I also think it has made us more happy and relaxed through the pregnancy. I am certain that this is mainly down to Anne's application of the course and would highly recommend her, and not just for those who are anxious about giving birth.

Georgina and Andy, Jan 2015
