I feel so fortunate to have received hypnotherapy from Andy for my anxiety. I instantly felt at ease in his company due to his warm, friendly persona and was able to talk easily about my issues without fear of judgment. He was excellent at explaining the science behind some of my feelings in order for me to make sense of them and he guided me in a positive way to cope and reframe my anxiety in an individualised and thoughtful process. Each session has lifted me up and it only took a few weeks until I felt a huge shift in how I felt. I have learned so much about myself through this therapy and can feel the positive changes in my daily life now. I would definitely recommend Andy’s services to anyone who needed some help and support. I definitely achieved my goal through our work together and couldn’t be happier with my experience. Thank you Andy for the compassionate and gentle support as you helped me to attain a more content and confident mindset. You really have made a difference.

I would like to take this opportunity to reflect and show my appreciation for Andy's wonderful sessions. Andy has been so supportive over the past 6 months. This came at a very challenging time in my life, I felt broken and sadder than I have ever felt before. He gave me the tools and information to help me deal with the difficulties in a positive way and I use them each and every day, he has changed my life so much for the better. I now feel more mentally equipped to process difficult moments. I have so much gratitude for my life and the help Andy has given me.

I have really enjoyed my sessions with Andy, and I have benefitted in so many ways. I now know that I already held the power to improve many areas of my life, I just needed the knowledge and tools to help me do it.
Andy's patient, calm and friendly manner made me relax from the start, and once I had learned some of the science (most of which was both fascinating and new to me), I felt prepared to make small positive changes in my daily routines, and to prioritise my own health and wellbeing more. An unexpected benefit was that I was able to reduce my anti-depressant medication and have felt happier, more settled and positive as a result.
It's great to be able to tap into the recorded meditation, which I've used at home, and on trains, planes and automobiles!
I have enjoyed appreciating and recording the 'positives and gratitudes', as otherwise they can be easily forgotten and under-valued. The sessions with Andy have made me appreciate my life more, and I'm sure it's having a positive effect on those around me too.

Absolutely excellent. Andy is fantastic and puts you at ease from the off. His detailed discussion into how the brain works is fantastic and his means of exploring personal change is excellent. He reflects on positivity and how change can help build this and after 2 sessions I feel much more positive and determined to overcome barriers. Exploring techniques to help overcome difficult times was incredibly useful and the audio MP3 has helped me relax many times. Highly recommended!

I discovered Solution Focused Hypnotherapy in April 2024 when I was at a place in life where I felt stuck in bad habits and routines and couldn’t see a path forward to achieving my goals. I worked with Andy over a period of 2-3 months, and in that time I gained so much confidence, motivation and understanding about how my mind works and the tools needed to move forward.
Over a year later - I am the most content I have ever been and have gone on to achieve things that I didn’t even think possible. The impact of the sessions with Andy were literally life changing. Andy’s professionalism, knowledge and calm manner made the process so insightful and easy to embrace. I would whole heartedly recommend Andy and Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.

Andy has truly changed my life this year. I have faced some of the hardest circumstances life has thrown at me to date over the last 12 months, which took a huge toll on my mental health. I contacted Andy after several months of suffering with crippling anxiety and depression - willing to try anything to help. I immediately found space and peace during the sessions, and relatively quickly saw improvements in my wellbeing. After a few sessions I was able to think again, the brain fog lifted, and I started to feel like ‘me’ again. Continuing sessions have helped me remain clear-headed, be more productive at work, achieve personal goals, and enabled me to trust my judgment much more than ever before. I am able to cherish and enjoy life again. Andy is really skilled at working with people to help them understand how to help themselves

I contacted Andy at the beginning of the year after finding his details on the internet. I had been experiencing a particularly difficult few months after being diagnosed with PTSD which had escalated my OCD symptoms. Working with Andy has honestly been life changing. For the first time in my life I feel a sense of calm and have seen massive improvements in my mental health. It’s clearly obvious that Andy cares about his customers. I have never felt rushed in our sessions and Andy’s openness has meant that I have felt really comfortable to share my thoughts and feelings, and trust he has my best interests at heart. I can’t thank him enough.

I really benefitted from the sessions I had with Andy - in ways I hadn't expected. Because it is a solutions-based therapy I didn't have to wrack my brains trying to work out the whys and whens of my personal difficulties - the concept of changing the way I perceived my difficulties began straightaway and I noticed improvements very early on. It was a relief not to have to struggle with or revisit the past, but instead focus on ways to think and act in the future - that in itself was (and continues to be) so freeing.
An important aspect of the sessions for me was learning more about how my brain worked (sometimes against me) and crucially learning about its plasticity and the fact that I had more control over how I perceived things than I'd realised.
Having any sort of phobia or difficulty in life feels such a passive thing - like you're the unlucky one lumbered with it, but my sessions with Andy taught be that this simply isn't the case. I know now I CAN interpret things very differently , not as a victim of chance anymore, but with a degree of control over my own body and mind. And that is awesome.
It's not miraculous, it's on-going and a work in progress but progress it definitely is.

Andy is personable and professional in his approach. An exceptional communicator, the work he has done to support me has been life-changing. I’d urge anyone that is looking for solutions in anything from diet to smoking to book an appointment immediately!!

I've had hypnotherapy previously but following an illness of a beloved member of my family my bad, self-damaging habits returned and I was off work for months with anxiety. I felt I needed a 'top-up' so I found Andy. My unhealthy habits have disappeared once more and Andy has helped me towards other goals too.
I only needed Andy for three sessions to help me back to work, and now I'm back, I'm thriving and less irritable. Thank you so much, Andy. You've been wonderful.

Would highly recommend Andy! He is kind, understanding, and his sessions are a judge free zone. I will forever be grateful to Andy for how much he has helped me this year!
