Success Stories - Client Testimonials
Real people, real thoughts ... for sharing.
There have been so many testimonials and success stories over the years, that I thought it would be a nice idea to share them with you - especially as I feel it gives some 'hope' to people who may feel that they are 'alone' with a problem, with no real prospect of moving on in life.
All the testimonials and success stories are perfectly real and genuine and are held on file in the main office in Cambridgeshire. They have all been given the 'thumbs-up' by my professional association, the International Association of Pure Hypnoanalysts, as being 'Verified', and all the individuals that wrote these pieces (whether named, or otherwise), have kindly given their full permission for them to be used and published in this way.
Additionally, some of the pieces also refer to Paul Douglass, and in instances such as these, it simply means that we both worked with the client and that the subsequent testimonial was written to the both of us.
I hope you enjoy reading them as much as I've enjoyed putting them together. So, to that end, I am truly pleased and proud to say: Real Thoughts ... Real People.
" Dear Paul and Denise,
I just wanted to say THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH for being so incredibly patient, understanding, helpful, lovely, trustworthy and genuinely nice during the last few months and, most of all, for bringing those AMAZING changes into my life.
I had hoped for some improvement when I came to see you the first time, but I never ever imagined that so many things would be sorted out and that I would feel that much better -- not just about relationships but about myself in general.
It was another failed relationship that made me go and get professional help, not being entirely convinced that there was much I could do about my pattern -- which was always ending up with the wrong guy. But rather than waiting for Mr. Right, I thought it was better to do something about it. And I am so glad I did! My views, opinions and feelings have completely changed.
Along the line, my fear of seeing others being sick and the fear of being sick myself somehow disappeared and I would have never believed before that this could be cured. And guess what? I saw "The Last King of Scotland" on Saturday and there is a scene where the guy vomits and it did not bother me at all. I was so happy that your magic had worked that I actually enjoyed watching it. Spooky!
I really did enjoy the sessions -- with both of you -- they were good fun and you made me laugh so many times -- and they were definitely the most interesting thing I have experienced in my life so far.
I will never forget you and what you did for me - Thank you so, so much!
All the best, take care and see you soon,
Kerstin"

"I visited Denise mainly at the Hitchin branch about a problem I had struggled with for many years - vaginismus.
Really hypnotherapy was one of my last hopes. With such a personal problem you need someone who is going to make you feel at ease & able to just say whatever comes into your head without judging you.
Denise did just that! She is such a friendly, down to earth lady, a pleasure to have met.
Even just on a general level I feel a lot calmer, more positive & can take things in my stride more.
Oh, & my husband is pretty pleased with the outcome too!
Thank you so much Denise!! We did it!!

"To Denise,
This is just a small way to say a very BIG thank you! Little did I know what a difference you would make to my life on that day I met you.
I remember how low I felt and how lost I was in my life. Day to day things were controlling me - not the other way round - as it is now.
I actually quite like being me now! Life is far too short and I am so pleased I did something about making mine better!
I hope you continue to change lives and also know how much you can make a difference to the people you work with.
Thank you so much once more!
Take care and God Bless.
Regards Ceri Braybrook"

"Thank you so so much for all your help with everything....my commitment phobia is well and truely gone.....and i will never forget you for that....you and Denise were amazing..
I would recommend the treatment and of course you and Denise to anyone and everyone who needs a little help getting back on track.. I think its taken so long to get back to you because i have almost forgotten what it was like to have commitment phobia, there is hope out there for people suffering from it....i never thought i would get through it.....and used to come home crying a couple of times a week because it was so bad....
I wanted to thank you both for being so kind, thoughtful, supportive and wonderful, i will and have recommended you to people...i felt so comfortable talking to you about all sorts of things, like i'd known you for years...
i want other people to know that commitment phobia can be overcome.... i have read threads on websites where people have commitment phobia and they are going mad and think that there is no cure or no way of over coming it.....i thought that too....before i met you and Denise...

" Hi Denise...
I am finally back to myself...
All I want to do is just to say thank you to you and how grateful I am for all those magic things you have done to me.
Life couldn't be better now and finally I get to enjoy it.
Thank you so much for giving me my life back. I wish you all the best"

"When I first contacted the practice I really didn't know what to expect and felt that I'd got to the end of the road - if this didn't work then that was 'it'. The crippling pain of vaginismus would be there to stay and I'd just have to accept it. From the first email to the last session I was treated with complete understanding and sympathy, which after getting on for a decade of not being taken seriously or just simply being 'dismissed' was a really welcome relief.
I still don't understand completely how hypnotherapy works, all I can say from my own experience is that with such a personal problem talking about it is really not easy - whether it's to another female or not. However if you can get over the first hurdle of picking up the phone to make the first appointment you've made huge progress.
Luckily for me it's worked and my husband and I are not only very pleased but also very grateful. Hopefully soon we'll be able to start trying for a family, something which just three months ago was completely out of the question.
Thank you again for all your help, I'm now pain free and feeling great!!"

"I just wanted to let you know how I was getting on, basically, I have been meaning to thank you for a while but I keep forgetting because to be honest I don't even think about my 'problem' these days, its history and I can't believe how much it previously dominated my life.
I actually thought about the treatment only last week after I had been out for a meal with some of my girlfriend's family whom I had only just met. A year ago I would either made an excuse not to go, or had to get drunk to relax beforehand, but I just walked in to the restaurant, sat down and enjoyed myself, no problems, no fuss, no worry.
There have no doubt been countless occasions since we concluded the treatment when I have acted differently to before, but its become such a way of life now that I take it for granted and feel so much more relaxed and happy for it.
Thank you so very much for the treatment, I was beginning to doubt I could ever have been 'cured' but I have been, the few people that I have told about it all asked me the same question "so what did she do to you?" and I always say "I'm not quite sure, but it definitely worked!"
