Amanda felt that her eating was out of control. She was thinking about food all the time. She had always had a problem with her weight, which fluctuated, and had tried numerous diets that hadn't worked. Last year she had been ill and gained weight as a result.
She was studying to be an accountant and was determined to do well in her exams. She led a busy life and was in a steady and happy relationship.
A friend had recommended that she try hypnosis to overcome her compulsive desire to eat. She found my website on the internet, phoned me and made an appointment.
Most people who have an eating disorder will need to look at their life style and work out what changes are necessary in order to achieve their goals. They will need a weight-loss programme that is tailored to their individual needs and preferences. Most will need to look at their present diet and see what changes are needed to turn it into a healthy one. They will need to consider what form of exercise is necessary in order to maintain a healthy and attractive body.
Hypnosis can help with all these aspects by increasing motivation to make the necessary changes in a relaxed and gentle way.
After three sessions of hypnosis Amanda is eating less, thinking less about food, following a diet that involves counting the number of calories she has each day and going to the gym regularly. She feels happier and more relaxed about everything in general. She has lost two kilos!

Couple counselling
Relationships can be difficult at the best of times, but when you are living with someone 24/7 certain things can begin to annoy, frustrate and irritate and unconsciously you can begin to think that the other person is doing things deliberately to annoy you when this may not be true at all.
Most relationships owe their problems to breakdowns in communication, misunderstandings, a word said in haste and without thinkiung.
Joan and Alan have been living together for five years. They love each other, but Joan was hurt in previous relationships and finds it hard to trust Alan and, despite his constant reassurances, she suspects that he is involved with other women. She also grew up in difficult family circumstances and these have influenced her attitude to men. She can be moody and unreasonable when they try to talk about their problems and so they end up not talking to each other for days on end. They both want to resolve this situation and achieve the relationship that they both need and want.
In the calm and peaceful atmosphere of my consulting room they are able to begin addressing their difficulties by listening to each other and getting a clearer understanding of what needs to be done in order to bring about the necessary changes.
