I’ve worked with people on a wide range of issues, from anxiety and confidence to weight management, smoking, trauma and phobias. Everyone’s experience is different, but these stories give you a sense of what working together can feel like.

Client stories
Nathan — Weight management and confidence
Nathan came to see me after gaining more than three stone (19kg) following a career change, after being a Physical Training Instructor. The weight gain had affected his confidence, and he was struggling to find the motivation to get back into the gym or the routines that had previously worked for him.
As we worked together, he began rebuilding those habits. After around five sessions, he was preparing meals again and returning to regular training. He described his confidence as improving alongside the changes he was making.
“I am in a much better place and more confident with each pound I lose… I definitely recommend giving this a go!”
— Nathan
By the end of his sessions, Nathan said he was training around five times a week and felt far more motivated than when he started. He described the work as a “gentle push in the right direction.”
Sarah — Anxiety and body confidence
Sarah first experienced my work during a wellbeing session at her school. She noticed how much calmer she felt afterwards, and later got in touch for help with anxiety around body confidence and unhelpful eating and exercise patterns.
She described finding it difficult to talk openly about these issues at first, but said she felt comfortable and relaxed enough in our sessions to do that. Over time, she began noticing changes in the way she thought about herself and responded to old habits.
“Dean’s sessions have had the most amazing impact on my life.”
-Sarah
Sarah said her anxiety reduced significantly and that she felt more motivated to respond to difficult thoughts in a more positive and effective way.
Brian — Stopping smoking after 30 years
Brian had smoked more than 20 cigarettes a day for around 30 years and had previously tried patches and e-cigarettes without managing to stop.
As an electrician, smoking had also become part of the rhythm of his working day. Cigarettes were something he associated with breaks, and one of his concerns was what he would actually do with that time once he stopped.
He’d never been hypnotised before and wasn’t sure what to expect. After his two-hour session, he wrote:
“I have no craving for a cig and have not smoked for a week now and it’s not bothered me in the slightest.”
– Brian
Brian also said the two-hour appointment felt more like 20 minutes, and described the initial consultation as “like therapy in itself”.
When I caught up with him around three years later, he told me he was still a non-smoker and had not wanted a cigarette since the day of his session.
