I use hypnosis to help people from all walks of life, professional backgrounds and ages, quickly and successfully overcome issues like weight and anxiety disorders, stress, low self-esteem, phobias and anger. I specialise in performance anxiety in business, sport and the performing arts.

"Very Successful"
"After five sessions with Mark it is a relief to be a passenger in a car which in the past has caused me great anxiety. I would never have been able to achieve this without the professional guidance of Mark. Sitting comfy and feeling relaxed made the hypnotherapy sessions an enjoyable experience. I left the consulting room in a nice calm state. I am now continuing with the self hypnotherapy as taught by Mark. I am delighted and so is my husband!"

"Hypnotherapy for IBS and anixiety"
"It was an amazing experience to work with Mark. I left our sessions feeling so much more positive and relaxed. I had four sessions, where Mark taught me how to self-hypnotise as well. My anxiety is no longer ruling my life and in turn, my IBS has improved as well. I would highly recommend Mark as a hypnotherapist - Mark has enabled me to change my thinking for the better."

"Successful hypnotherapy for headaches and IBS"
"I initially chose to contact Mark due to his credentials which indicated that he was clearly a professional within his field. A telephone call conversation confirmed that Mark is indeed very knowledgeable, with an open and friendly demeanor, and I had complete confidence to move forward with hypnotherapy sessions.
I had been experiencing severe headaches and IBS symptoms as a weekly occurrence for several years, and after four hypnotherapy sessions, both frequency and severity of headaches have been reduced to negligible levels, and IBS symptoms have not manifested themselves at all. The hypnotherapy sessions were very calming and a wonderfully relaxing experience. I would wholeheartedly commend Mark to anyone considering engaging with an alternative therapy. He is a true professional, thorough in his approach and preparation for each session, and he takes a genuine interest in looking at the whole person, rather than just the specific issues which are being addressed."

"I wish I had done this years earlier. Thank you!"
"I contacted Mark due to my increased anxiety and alcohol dependence. On the exterior, I was calm but inside my anxieties were rife and I felt alcohol was the only solution to take the edge off things. I have what I perceive to be a stressful life and was convinced that I could not relax and did not know how to.
The sessions changed this perception quickly. I was naturally nervous if it would work but after each session, I felt like I had slept for 12 hours and my worries were insignificant. I slept like a baby the night following the session.
Mark has taught me the techniques to self hypnotise. I am making steady progress with this and it ensures I take time out of the day for me and my wellbeing. He also taught me to prioritise what's important! I schedule in time for this and the gym, it doesn't fall off the bottom of my to do list. I wish I had done this years earlier. Thank you!"

"Self-confidence issues as a result of lockdown"
"Mark has been instrumental in helping me restore my self-confidence after a shaky couple of months at the beginning of lockdown. He has managed to get to the root of the problem and use this to provide me with a personalised therapy - which I have learned to use to help me deal with other issues. Thank you very much, Mark"

"Hypnotherapy for Generalised Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety"
"I decided it was time to seek some support to help me better manage my GAD and Social Anxiety after recognising the impact this was having on me personally and professionally. I was put in touch with Mark and after a 6-week course of hypnotherapy I am now better equipped to manage my anxiety by drawing upon the techniques and tools learnt during my sessions. I have already noticed a marked improvement and will continue to practise self-hypnosis to build upon this going forward."
L.D. from Luton on 23 October 2020
"Brilliant!"
"Mark is very professional and knows the best way to help you regardless of the issue. Mark takes time to understand the issue you are dealing with and will not hesitate to put himself out and go that extra mile for anyone. I have left Marks sessions feeling completely free of my issues and would not hesitate to recommend Mark to anyone."
J.T. from Worcester on 17 February 2022
