Review from Google:
I approached Dan out of desperation as I’d tried everything else, including CBT therapy. I was diagnosed with a condition where I can become very unwell from eating, stress, certain fragrances etc. but food is the biggest trigger for me. It’s unpredictable and there is little I can do to prevent it. This has been going on for nearly 12 years and it resulted in me becoming quite isolated because I was too scared to commit to any plans, go too far from home or eat anything away from home.
I went through six sessions of hypnotherapy with Dan to try to regain control of my life and not be consumed by the fear of doing anything. Dan was frank with me from the start, saying that it wouldn’t cure my condition but it could help me be less anxious and panicky. I thought the whole experience would be awkward and uncomfortable but I was at home the minute I was through the door, laughing and making jokes.
Over the weeks I was surprised at how much more relaxed I felt about everything. I was still nervous about getting ill, but It wasn’t all consuming, and I was able to start taking small steps like eating some snacks at work, or agreeing to small plans with friends. My first session was on 1st February and by 30th April, I was in a position that I could manage going out for dinner for my birthday, the first time in years (my friend actually got teary and said it was like having the old me back). I was travelling again to see family without the overwhelming panic of being on the road; making plans with friends; eating before I went out; going for long walks.
The difference in my quality of life is ridiculous, and I credit that to Dan for helping me overcome my fear; helping me accept that there will still be bad days but that these aren’t going to beat me; and finally that “you’ve got this”, which will forever be my mantra now. I cannot thank Dan enough, and I cannot recommend him enough. If you are struggling with something reach out to Dan and see if this is something that may help you. You are worth the investment.
