Anxiety Treatment in Stroud, Gloucestershire.

‘In February 2016 I was feeling terrible – awful anxiety meant I was jumpy, not sleeping properly, snapping at my family and generally unhappy.  I didn’t feel depressed as in miserable, just anxious.  For me that anxiety manifests itself in worry about my kids, specifically my daughter’s health, and the crippling fear they will become ill.  So I’d check them and check them and drive us all nuts.  The saddest part though was that however bad I seemed on the outside inside my head was a 1000 times worse’.

‘Hazel told me she was sure she could change my mind-set and make me happy.  I don’t know why but I just believed her.  I think by the time she had explained the science behind the way our minds work, and how we can change even the most embedded beliefs and thought patterns I could see the logic.  And I’m all about the logic (even though I was living in a completely illogical part of my brain at the time).’

‘That day I first went to see Hazel I would say I would rate happiness overall at 2 out of 10.  My anxiety was so bad it was impacting all aspects of my life.  After seeing Hazel for 10 sessions I would rate myself a 9 (sometimes even a 10) out of ten. People used to say to me “live in the moment” “enjoy each day” and I wanted to, but I just couldn’t do it.  But I can now.  And when life throws up problems I can deal with them because I have the tools to do it.  Negative thought patterns that have been part of my life for as long as I can remember are gone.  I feel free, clear and calm.’

‘I was an average 39-year old mum of two who suffered badly with anxiety. I am now an average 39-year old mum of two who is happy and calm.  And that’s it really.  Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is just that – Solution Focused.  Whatever you are struggling with, if you want to fix it then Hazel can help you.  Just trust her – it works.’
