Can my fear or phobia be removed?
Yes it can, we have a very high success rate with people of all ages no matter how long they have had their problem. Because your fears and phobias are a learnt behaviour they can be stopped and something better put in its place. Like anything else once you learn how easy it is to stop your fears it becomes effortless.
Will this work for anyone?
Yes this can work for anyone who is prepared to listen and take on board the easy work that we do together. Change is much easier than you think and first thing someone has to do to change is start doing something different to what they have done before. The reason some people have their problems is because either they keep looking at things in the same way or they've continued thinking about things in the same way. The time when people change is when they start to do things differently. It is not enough to just want to change you have to do something about it. That's when change becomes easy and natural.
How many sessions will it take to get rid of my problem?
Sessions are usually booked as a main two hour session with a follow up session with the majority of clients reporting that the problem goes within the first two hour session and the follow up being very important to check the progress that you are making and to make any further changes or alterations if required. Because everyone is different and the session is tailored to what you need to change very occasionally it may take more than the two sessions.
How will you remove my fear or phobia?
We use NLP, Time Line Therapy™, Hypnotherapy, Motivation and Mental Toughness. These are very effective and safe methods that have been used for many years and have been proved to be one of the quickest and most effective ways for people to overcome fears and phobias.
Will I have to have hypnosis?
No, if you decide that you would prefer to get rid of your problem without hypnosis then we have other methods that we use.
What will happen during my session?
During your session you will be asked some simple questions about what the problem is and what you want. At times we will talk about you and your memories and at other times you will asked to do some simple things and notice how you feel different. Everything will be explained before hand and if you have any questions there will be the opportunity to ask whatever you want.
Will I go to sleep while in hypnosis?
No hypnotic sleep is very different to normal sleep. Many people describe it as feeling very relaxed while being aware of what is going with a sense of focus while other people say that it feels very similar to having a lovely day dream where you can think more clearly and easily think of solutions.
Will I lose control while in hypnosis?
No, hypnosis is about giving you control back and putting you in control of your life.
Do I have to do anything before I can come and see you?
You will be asked some simple questions about what you want also a very simple brief medical history will be taken about your general health. Any information taken is held in the strictest confidence. Payment is required before any work starts unless special arrangements have been made to pay on the day.
Do I need to bring someone with me?
You are more than welcome to come on your own or with someone else. If you want someone to sit in with you during your session that's completely fine. My only request is that they must remain quite while we are working together and if they start interrupting or become distracting they will be asked to wait outside.
Where do I have to go to see you?
Appointments are available in Central Birmingham with very easy access by road and main line train station.
I can't travel can you come to me?
Yes I do travel to see clients but obviously the cost is dependent on the distance and time involved traveling to you. Please call us on 0845 643 2450 to find out more or discuss the options available.
I have had my problem for years can you still get rid of it?
Yes we can help you to get rid of your problem no matter how long you have had it. Some people wonder if they can change as they have had their phobia or fear for many years and ask me it this will work for them as well. We have helped people who have had problems for many years to find freedom from their fear.
I don't know what originally caused my phobia can you still get rid of it?
Yes, whether or not you know what originally caused your phobia it can still be cured.
What does it cost?
The fees vary slightly depending on the nature of your problem. Many people say that what they gain from working with us is worth much more than the fee they paid and although it may have seemed expensive at first glance they would have happily paid more knowing how much benefit they have gained and that it is the best money they have ever spent.

What is NLP?
NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) has been described as the owner’s manual for your brain. It is a very simple, practical and extremely effective way of enabling people to change quickly so that they begin to generate new patterns of behaviour.
What is Time Line Therapy™?
Time Line Therapy™ takes NLP techniques and uses a time line. The basic idea is to look for part occurrences of a problem in the past that presents itself now and unlearn the behaviour by going back; for example if you are frightened of mice dig back and find the first time a mouse scared you and understand why it did then but can’t now.
Is what happens confidential?
Yes all work is completely confidential and testimonials are only used with the client’s full knowledge and permission.
