All good. Not had a cigarette. I think about it but just don’t really want one.
I visited Dan after enduring a 2 month period of being unable to sleep properly.
What started out as simply feeling restless for a couple of nights quickly turned into a vicious cycle where I would lay awake hour after hour worrying that I hadn’t gone to sleep, with an exhausted body, but an alert mind. The more I didn’t sleep, the more anxious I got, and the more anxious I got, the more I didn’t sleep! Heart palpitations, tingling sensations in my feet and hands, erratic breathing and periods of hysteria dominated most nights, and needless to say my partner suffered equally because of this.
Having been prescribed sleeping tablets by my doctor, which I started to feel dependant on, I decided that I needed to get long term help rather than a short term fix.
After my first session with Dan, the first change I noticed was that I came out actually looking forward to going to sleep that night! A feeling that I hadn’t had for nearly 2 months.
I also noticed an immediate shift in my mind set; no longer was I spending every afternoon/evening counting the hours until I was going to bed, convincing myself that I would be unable to sleep, and picturing myself fretting all night. Instead, I imagined myself going to bed relaxed and calm, and felt positive that I was going to have a good, restful night’s sleep. And from that moment on, I did!
Most noticeably, I felt in control of my mind, and consequently realised that I had allowed my mind to control me for nearly 2 months. Dan talked me through techniques to help deal with my feelings and thoughts, and gave me hints and tips to help me sleep (even as simple as not having a TV in the bedroom).
I visited Dan for one more session, during which he helped me overcome any last traces of anxiety I had regarding sleeping, and I have felt no need to return for any further sessions.
I can honestly say that my two sessions with Dan were life-changing. I was becoming very low due to my constant lack of sleep, and it was having a severe knock-on effect on my life, however Dan enabled me to get a grip on the problem and overcome it. I can’t quite put my finger on how he did it, but he did, and for that, I will be forever grateful.
Developed a nervous tick having suffered with anxiety for years. The doctor suggested I try hypnotherapy. Dan helped by teaching me various coping skills and helped me to get everything under control. My nervous tick and anxiety have all but disappeared.
After a marital split combined with a new job I found my head in a muddle. I was anxious and getting wound up. This often resulted in me not being as supportive as I would like to those closest to me.
Dan helped me overcome this. He listened, did not judge, made me feel calm and good about myself again. I am a happier more confident person following my sessions.
I would recommend Dan to anyone who feels their anxiety is getting too much, listen, relax and learn how to deal with the issues we all face every day. I feel I can achieve anything now. Thank you Dan.
I’ve had issues with anxiety for as long as I can remember. I would worry about things that were relevant and also things that were completely irrational and beyond my control.
I suffered my first panic attack when I was 17 and have had several since. My anxiety has never stopped me achieving my goals in life, but there have been various periods of time during which the anxiety has been so all-consuming it almost has. Most of the time however, it has just been there, looming, waiting to ignite.
I’ve tried various medications, self-help books, Counselling and Psychotherapy but nothing seemed to help for more than a very short period of time. Hypnotherapy was my last hope really. I had read positive things about it and thought I may as well give it a shot. I am so very, very happy that I did. It’s been nearly 3 months since I completed my sessions with Dan and I still feel great. If I ever start to feel the anxiety creeping in I use the tools and methods Dan has taught me to deal with it. It does not spiral out of control any more and I can manage it.
Dan is amazing; from the beginning he made me feel relaxed and comfortable and offered no judgement, just gentle assertiveness and encouragement that he will help fix things. And he did. I will be forever grateful.
Dan is amazing. He helped me change what I thought was impossible and make it possible.
Before seeing Dan I had a phobia of balloons popping but after only 5 sessions, I had the courage to go out and face my fear head on and step by step over a couple of days and for the third time today I have blown lots of balloons up and popped them with no ear protection either 🙂 so extremely proud. I have done around 100 balloons all together now.
Anyone reading this while thinking of going with Dan, my advice is go for it. Thanks again
If you are seeking a Top Professsional Clinical Hypnotherapist in Cambridgeshire / East Anglia I highly recommend Dan.
I hesitated to contact Dan as I was not sure I really believed it would help. I was worried that my drinking too much was affecting my health and knew it was sabotaging my attempts to lose weight. In the very first session, Dan helped me to relax and after 3 sessions I no longer rely on alcohol to wind down. I have rediscovered my will power and I now have a general feeling of contentment which I believe is a result being in control. No longer a sceptic, I would recommend Dan’s services.
A few months ago, irrational health fears had control of my life. Routine trips to the doctor would scare me to the point that I actually made myself ill – which made my fear worse. I was locked in a cycle of obsession and anxiety – too ashamed to talk about it, because I felt stupid.
When I came to Dan, I found him so accepting and non-judgemental that talking was easy. Through his sessions, I’ve learned to calm my mind and switch off unwanted thoughts. It’s been fantastic to have him on my side as I’ve made progress – he’s helped me every step of the way. I now feel like the ‘normal’ person I so wanted to be.
For years, I’ve wanted to give blood. Previously the idea of it made me sick with worry as the process of donating blood was the most frightening situation I could imagine. Last night, I was immensely proud to send Dan a message telling him that I’d just donated blood. In fact, I’m looking forward to doing it again.
Dan’s put me back in control and my future is more exciting than ever, because if I can defeat my demons then I know I can do anything. Thanks Dan, I’m the bravest and happiest person I’ve ever been.
I had anger management problems for some time and really needed a solution.
Dan offers an excellent service and instantly makes you feel relaxed. I’ve always struggled with speaking to people close to me about why I react the way I do and chose to ignore and try and forget about it most of the time. But with Dan I was able to really open up and get to the root of the problem.
I’m really pleased with how my sessions went and Dan has made me a better person for it. I’m so much more relaxed now and the little things don’t annoy me any more. I would definitely recommend Dan and I’m really pleased that I contacted him.
