Testimonials

It is always nice to hear how people are getting on following their sessions with me and some clients have agreed that I can use the contents of their e-mails or letters as testimonials in order that other people can get a flavour of what is possible.  Due to the nature of many of the problems, some clients prefer to remain anonymous and confidentiality is always respected.

using the techniques demonstrated when I face a situation on the hill that previously had me panic stricken'   Linda D, Edinburgh from top of Cairngorm

Weight Loss - "Dear Elaine, I am so grateful for your help.  I am not stressed or obsessed with food now.  Rather than thinking all the time about what I am eating and when, I now just eat when I am hungry, listening to how I feel rather than thinking about how I should feel.  I have now lost weight and it feels like I have not been trying, just listening to how hungry I feel.  I am much more relaxed when eating out and visiting friends.  Many thanks."  Cheryl, Hawick.

Fear of Heights-"I would just like to thank you for yesterday. It was great, I got to my friend's last night who has the veranda and I just stepped straight out on to it with no hesitation whatsoever. It was the greatest feeling in the world to have been able to have done that.  I thought that I would have got there and i would have crumpled at the thought but no there were no thoughts at all and I just walked out and i even looked over the edge and there was no way that I would have done that before so I want to thank you very much for helping me. I cannot thank you enough. My friend could not believe last night that I just walked out there with no hesitation what so ever.  Also I went to Ocean Terminal shopping centre today with my friend and I walked straight over to the glass barrier where you look down the full three floors and I had no bother at all not even a slight flinch so thank you again.  I  feel this new found freedom  i can't thank you enough I wish I had heard about you years ago."  Jan Mckenna, Edinburgh.

Change in Thinking -  "...I also wanted to say a huge thanks for everything that you have helped me with. I really notice a difference in how I am responding to things....I think what you are doing is amazing and I am sure other people are so grateful of your positivity and help." Sandra M, Galashiels

Fear of Dentists -"This is just a short letter of thanks for all the help you gave me afer I had approached you a few weeks ago regarding my phobia of the dentist.  If I had known years ago how much of a help hypnotherapy could be I would have done this much sooner than I did.  Since coming to see you I have completed 4 dentists appointments during which I have had a tooth removed and several other bits and pieces done.  Considering that a few weeks ago I could barely even have walked into the dentists to make an appointment, never mind have the traetment I can only thank you once again for what you did for me and say that I would recommend your help to anyone in a similar situation to mine."Martin, Galashiels

Confidence, Self Esteem, Sporting Performance, Nail Biting -  just an email to thank you for all your work and despite being dubious about your line of work I have to say how amazed and overwhelmed I am by the results you have achieved in 3 sessions.


The first session was to overcome the sporting condition of "Dartitus" a condition that brought the demise of Eric "Crafty Cockney" Bristow, for all you non darts players it's the inability to release the darts from the hand whilst at the oche. After many years of trying to cure this, and eventually giving up, after a 2 hour session of your NLP & hypnosis the darts simply glide from my hand ... A fantastic result.


Then after session two when you worked on my nasty habit of nail biting i am so pleased to say that after 42 years i have now managed to stop nibbling them and have nails to be proud of...

Session 3 is the most amazing result of them all, you took the dartitus problem further and convinced my subconscious that I would hit 180 by a specific date. I had huge doubts over this but I'm so thrilled to say that on the date you specified,  I hit just that, not once but THREE TIMES.  Now when I'm in the "zone" I'm now hitting numerous treble 20's and scores of 140,135.123 etc.   As you know I suffer from low esteem and I would like to express just how much more confidence I have after hitting these 180s, it's not just the fact I managed to score this but also the self belief that this "simple" task has installed in me. How it brought an instant lift in my self belief, the confidence it has installed seems to me to be a step in the right direction in going part ways to curing the low self esteem and depression I suffer from. 

Now I am wondering how far I could progress with another session on my "Dart Work" as the progress so far has been extraordinary, where I now expect to hit treble 20s instead of just hoping.  I am excited to see what level I can take this to."  M.J.H, Galashiels

Motivation  - "I had been wanting to get motivated to achieve a goal for about a year and a half. One session with Elaine sorted out what I needed to do and within days it was done. Elaine's simple but effective technique put an end to my procrastination and helped me just get on and do it! I would highly recommend Elaine to anyone who needs that kick start to get motivated and achieve. Elaine's magic touch works wonders!"  LC, Glasgow

Fear of Horses - “Thank you so much Elaine for helping me get over my fear of horses.  It’s a phobia that has plagued me for most of my life.  When my eight year old daughter decided a couple of years ago that she’d like to learn to ride, I had to sit on my hands to stop myself leaving the arena as I didn’t want her to see how bad my fear was.  I began to learn a bit about how to ride by watching her, however, the fear was not abating.  It was my dream to one day be able to go out with her on a pony trek and share in her enjoyment of riding.  After working with you on the fear, I am delighted to report that today I got on a horse and had a riding lesson.   I couldn’t believe how excited I felt, there was no anxiety at all.  I even managed to trot on my own.  When I got off the horse, I stood next to him and tested myself as to how I felt.  It was amazing.   No anxiety, no fear, no shakes, no hyperventilating!  All I felt was such a sense of calm.  We are booked into a pony trek this weekend and I am now looking forward to sharing this experience with my daughter.  She is so proud of me and I am so proud of myself.  Thank you so much for liberating me from this fear.”  G East Lothian.
