‘As a young person, I've been filled with so much excitement and hope for the future that has replaced the fear and anxiety around life. Coming out of my ongoing therapy now i don’t feel scared to be independent because I've never felt more prepared with the toolkit given to me. Such a positive influence on me and a lasting one.’--

There is no other way to describe this woman, other than my hero!
She helped me overcome a low point in my life, enabling me to understand the root causes of my anxieties and providing me with the tools I needed to deal with them on a long-term basis. She gave me the confidence and happiness back I had lost
Myself and my family cannot thank Janie enough for making me "me" again! She will always hold a special place in my heart

For six years I had been struggling to overcome a fear of flying. It seemed the more I tried to fight it, the more knotted-up I became in it. I live abroad and fly a lot for work. I would find myself getting worked up for weeks before a flight, upon takeoff, my legs would shake, go numb and I would be almost hyperventilating. Then I found Janie and she helped me turn it all around. This isn't a click your fingers and you're cured situation. It takes effort, kindness and forgiveness of yourself but Janie is THE person to help you on this journey. I cannot imagine anyone more caring, optimistic and patient. Janie really worked wonders with me, talking me gently through the process of hypnotherapy and giving me the tools needed to help myself.
In the year since I met Janie, I've flown to the beach twice, to the UK for Christmas and a wedding in May, to Rwanda for a conference and I'm now in Portugal on holiday!!! I still get a little bit nervous, but as Janie says a healthy bit of nerves is good - it shows your brain is working - but I am getting better with every flight and I now have the tools to reason with my nerves. This is all thanks to Janie - I honestly cannot recommend her enough!!

For as long as I can remember I have had an irrational fear of heights which has been restricting my coastal holidays by not being able to walk along clifftops. I contacted Janie who helped establish what it was that had caused the issue. Following hypnotherapy I have been able to walk along and enjoy Beachy Head and Mort Point - two locations with steep declines that had been particularly challenging for me.
I wish I had contacted Janie earlier as her positive support has been an immense help. I would advise anybody who has any issue with phobias or anxieties to get in touch with her.
