The Hypnotherapy Practice – Stourbridge - Stourbridge

Saw Deborah regarding a fear of driving following vertigo in 2018. Id tried numerous things before hypnotherapy none of which had been successful.
Deborah explained everything to me as we went through the sessions and I felt for the first time someone was actually taking my fear seriously and understood it.
I never thought it would happen but I’ve now driven on several dual carriageways and feel completely relaxed and at ease.
I’ve also done several loops on the motorway and that’s getting easier everytime.
I feel like I have the techniques and the understanding now as to why my brain / body reacted the way it did. Highly recommend and thanks Deborah

I met Deborah at the worst time in my life. Crippling anxiety, panic attacks, intrusive thoughts and total bewilderment. I’d had CBT and talking therapies. Deborah normalised my experience, reassuring me that despite what was happening it was a normal reaction and that together we would get me through it. This is not a quick fix, it takes time and commitment to do the work outside of the sessions to strengthen her incredible work. Each week I saw my time with Deborah at a beacon of light, not realising the light was growing inside me. Over time I began to calm and relax and rebuild myself. I wouldn’t say I’m ‘fixed’ as we’re not broken. But I’m beginning to thrive and for that I owe Deborah a debt of gratitude 🙏

I decided to go for hypnotherapy as I felt the approach would suit my own circumstances and several friends have had positive outcomes.

Although I had some scepticism about how successful the therapy would be, which I continued to question even several sessions in, I can confirm it has culminated in entirely positive results for me.

We tackled general anxiety, mainly around 'the unknown' which was pretty general! We also addressed flying (aeroplanes) and anxieties around that.

The therapy is non-invasive and aside from some basic chats around emotions and feelings and understanding some of the things that had triggered certain thoughts and feelings, there is no real 'homework' outside of the physical session(s) which suited my circumstances.

It has really helped shape the way I look at life and has brought a huge calm to my general outlook and overactive thought processes in terms of 'things that might happen' (but probably won't).

I'd recommend David to anybody; he is a calming, understanding person who puts you at ease from the start. If you're thinking about this approach and are skeptical, like I was, I'd fully advocate trying it - it has genuinely changed my life and you can't put a price on that.

I have been seeing Deborah now for a year and a half to help me through an ongoing very tough time in my life. She has got me through a very dark time and helped me move forward. We have a half hour discussion on current issues and then a wonderfully relaxing half hour hypnotherapy session. She is so kind and supportive, listening and suggesting anything she thinks might help my situation. I could not have got through this without her especially at the beginning when I had no other help. Thank you so much Deborah for everything you have done for me.

I first started having hypnotherapy with Deborah about 3 years ago to help my body image issues and general anxiety that CBT and regular counselling didn't seem to work on, and have continued with her since to work on panic disorder and health anxiety. Back when I started, I never thought I would be free of the overwhelming thoughts and perfectionism. But today I feel like a different person and it's all thanks to Deborah. She has been amazing at helping me with everything I've gone through and I always look forward to having a chat with her and catching up! I don't know where if be without The Hypnotherapy Practice's help. Thank you so much.

I contacted Deborah a few weeks before a trip to Thailand to see if she could help with my irrational fear of getting on small boats! (I know I know!) This is something I’ve struggled with for many years and felt that hypnotherapy was worth a try so I could enjoy all the wonderful experiences on water that Thailand has to offer!
I had one in-person session and 4 zoom sessions which I found really relaxing.
I am delighted to say that I am on my back from Thailand as I speak and have been on several small boats without any anxiety! … I would highly recommend Deborah if you are reading this and suffer with irrational fears!
Thankyou so much Deborah!

After years of flying without anxiety, I developed anxiety for fear of flying. After trying books and online help I decided to contact the practice as it was getting to the stage I almost missed a holiday or thought I’d be stranded abroad. The receptionist was most helpful, put me at ease and booked me an appointment with Deborah. After a few sessions I felt at one with the thought of flying and took a holiday. Deborah gave me lots of techniques to try which I used and it paid off, no irrational thoughts, feeling unwell before and during the flight, no clammy hands and wasn’t gripping onto my partners hand. I did visit Deborah a few more times as I had let my thoughts get the better of me but now over 12 months on I have taken 4 more flights with no issues. I have recommended to family and I would not hesitate to recommend to others

I had my hypnotherapy sessions with Deborah and as I had struggled with my issues for 6/7 years I was skeptical as to how much difference it could make. Safe to say I’ve been blown away. The sessions I’ve had have made an incredibly positive impact on my life and I’m able to enjoy aspects I couldn’t previously. I’d recommend to anyone & I only wish I’d done it a lot, lot sooner. Thank you 😊
