Birmingham Hypnotherapy Clinic testimonials

“The workshop seemed to go really well, the students learned some great techniques for managing stress and everyone found it very helpful.” Becky Pickering Well Being Advisor Birmingham City University

“Some of my team had highlighted stress as an issue which contributed to staff sickness. On learning of this Georgios offered to run some lunchtime relaxation classes. He has run three so far, each has been attended by 15 people who have fed back that the sessions were worthwhile. On a personal note I have discussed issues with him myself and have benefitted from his alternative perspective on long standing issues. Some short yet simple interactions can have a powerful positive influence.” Ashley Prior Head of Highway Services Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council

“The recent relaxation sessions provided by Georgios for colleagues two of which I attended were personally very useful in helping to understand & learn relaxation techniques and to sample the benefits offered from relaxation and hypnotherapy. While there were only a limited number of sessions, and the venue was possibly not ideal feedback from attendees on the day and subsequently was very positive.” Chris Morton Senior Engineer Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council (SMBC)
“I had a two session gastro-band session and I must say, I'm impressed. I have lost nearly a stone in about 3 weeks without feeling deprived of food. Georgios himself is very professional and quickly swept aside my skepticism.” S.P.
“I felt very comfortable speaking to Georgios because I did not feel like I was being judged and I felt like he genuinely wanted to help me. I have benefitted a lot from my sessions with him. I would recommend if you need to speak to someone then you should definitely contact him. I had only tried hypnotherapy once before this with a different hypnotherapist and I did not have a very good experience, but I'm glad that I gave it another go because it has really helped me this time around with the right hypnotherapist.” A.M.
“I can thoroughly recommend Georgios. He took his time to really understand me as an individual and explained exactly what he was trying to achieve with the techniques. Above all, he made me realise even with all my doubts, that I could be helped. He has enabled me to solve a major issue in my life and I am very grateful.” Nadeem Arif

Hypnotherapy Tackles Sleep Problems on Two Fronts
Sleep problems are notoriously difficult to resolve but Susan Boyle, who has suffered from chronic insomnia since she was 15, found hypnotherapy helped make her life and her relationship run more smoothly.
Insomnia is an issue that is hard for those who haven’t suffered it to understand quite how detrimental to day-to-day living it can be. For Susan, battling a constant feeling of tiredness made it hard to get through the working day and even recreational outings were out of the question, particularly if driving was involved, for fear of accidents.
Only being able to sleep in ten minute snatches at a time really affected her health. Lack of sleep impacts on the immune system and made her very susceptible to picking up bugs. Consecutive bouts of insomnia would trigger acute migraines and was likely to have been one of the contributing factors that led to Susan developing the viral condition ME, which causes extreme exhaustion.
By the time Susan consulted hypnotherapist Georgios Theodorou she was in a sleep cycle of between 2 to 4 hours of rest followed by a period of wakefulness and only achieving a complete night’s sleep of 6 hours twice a year when lack of sleep finally caught up with her.

Sports Hypnosis - Hypnotherapy Provides Fresh Approach for American Football Player
“What hypnotherapy did for me was to make me more mindful of my own thoughts and give me the opportunity to look at the causes of the separate issues which were holding me back from my training regime.
“Hypnotherapy is a different learning style from sports psychology and allowed me to achieve small goals and make constructive changes in easy stages rather than be completely focused on the end goal.
“The sessions start with a consultation to determine what specifically is affecting you, then Georgios will provide techniques to address these problems. This is so important as he gives you the tools to work on yourself which helps you understand how your mind thinks about things you hadn’t normally considered. After this, the therapist will make you feel very relaxed and affirm your goals and techniques with the spoken word.
“My advice is to give hypnotherapy a go, it has made me much more mindful of the things I used to do without thinking about. This has aided me in my goals and motivation.”

Hypnotherapy for Panic Attacks
Just after her mum passed away Bryony began suffering panic attacks. Although she had experienced an episode in the past, these new attacks began to occur more regularly and were more severe.
Eventually they became an ‘everyday state of mind’ and Bryony realised she had no control over her life so needed to take action.
Consulting her GP her only options were medication or counselling. Not wishing to take pills, Bryony attended counselling but came to conclusion talking while someone passively listened was not the answer, especially when she had friends she could share with.

Hypnotherapy for Anxiety
If you doubt hypnotherapy could be helpful to you, take a leaf out of Nadeem Arif’s book. After a conventional approach to dealing with issues around anxiety hadn’t worked, he began exploring complementary therapies.
Nadeem was always fascinated by the power of the sub-conscious and had experimented with hypnotherapy CDs but with mixed success as he was unable to enter a state of hypnosis on his own.
He then decided to investigate seeing a therapist face-to-face. Conducting his research, he contacted several people by phone and was particularly impressed with Georgios because he gave him plenty of time to explain his requirements and was offering the type of therapies Nadeem was looking for.
