I have suffered with anxiety for a number of years and have also had some issues with checking things, in particular my business vehicle which was where I found myself becoming obsessed with technical problems occurring. Things started to become significantly worse at the start of April 2020 when i could feel myself almost become detached from my own body, I felt in total despair and emotionally disconnected, I just wanted everything to stop. Even my own Wife said my face looked different, I looked troubled! Shortly after I had a very frightening panic attack and because of this I knew I had to see a Doctor. I was prescribed antidepressants, and at around the same time my Wife’s friend recommended a therapist she was seeing.
It was after meeting Jill and with the help of my medication and therapy that slowly things started to look a bit brighter. Jill is very approachable, professional and easy to talk to, she made me feel comfortable and was non judgemental from the start. It was so good just being able to talk to someone who didn’t know me. Jill showed me how my brain works which helped me to understand why I was feeling the way I was and showed me different ways to calm down when I felt anxious. I would definitely recommend Jill .
My life feels so much brighter now and I feel positive about the future. My Wife can see a massive change in me. I decided to continue having monthly appointments with Jill as I find they help me so much.

I had lived with severe health anxiety and panic attacks for years. Even small ailments would play on my mind as I would worry that they were the symptom of something far worse than they actually were. My mind was constantly busy, I would often be in a state of fear, worrying that I was going to die. From the moment I woke up, I would worry about worrying through to the moment I went to sleep where I would worry I wouldn’t wake up again the next day, It was completely exhausting.
I had previously looked up ways and means to combat anxiety online and whilst I had some limited short term successes I always ultimately seemed to revert back to a state of anxiety. As it had gone on for so long I just believed it would be something I would have to live with for the rest of my life.
By nature, I am a skeptic and as I had already looked into other self-help treatments I did not initially believe anything would help, however, over the course of several weeks of therapy, I started to get increasingly large signs that the therapy was helping and that my anxiety was beginning to fade. Week by week I was having longer moments where my mind was clear and I had no thoughts of worry. Towards the end of the therapy, I was having entire days where I did not have a negative thought at all. Something I could have only dreamed of at the beginning.
The therapy itself helped in several ways.
The first was by providing me with the ability to look at life differently by teaching me to look for the positives in life rather than solely on the negatives. Initially, I didn’t appreciate just how powerful this change was at all but on reflection, this one small change made a huge difference.
This was reinforced by gaining an understanding of how the brain works and how I might have fallen into a state of constantly thinking negatively. It also helped me to acknowledge that some negative thoughts are necessary but that excessive negative thoughts can be controlled.
Finally, the regular trance sessions themselves provided me with an opportunity to clear my mind on a daily basis and just spend time in a relaxed state.
I was a little apprehensive at the start of therapy as I did not believe that it would make any difference or solve my problem. I was also concerned about talking about the inner workings of my mind and my thoughts and being judged for them.
My fears were quickly allayed. Jill was friendly, completely professional and very calming from the moment I met her. I never felt judged and I always felt like she was on my side. As I was talking through my problems, she provided me with a sense of reassurance that they were not beyond solving and that it would be possible to lead a life without constant anxiety. I would happily recommend anyone to see Jill for therapy.
The future now looks like a far brighter place than it did prior to therapy. Where I had once resigned myself to living in a regularly agitated or anxious state, I can now see that it is possible to live without worry. I am sure that there will still be occasions where some negative thoughts seep in, however, I am also equally sure that those thoughts will become the exception rather than the rule and that they will no longer dominate my life. Seeking therapy, for me, was one of the best things I could have done as it has allowed me to see that I can increasingly live a worry-free life and that is completely life-changing.
Thank you very much Jill.

Having struggled and suffered with Anxiety and Stress for many years ,it has caused me and my family many problems after talking to a friend he suggested trying Hypnotherapy and put me in contact with Jill Rens .
Very sceptical on how it could help me but desperately needed to try something , after an initial consultation and a few sessions and the relaxation techniques I definitely felt a greater understanding of how my brain and body worked.
As the Hypnotherapy sessions continued I felt a great rapport with Jill as she taught me to be calm and understand my inner feelings which intern reduced Stress levels lowered my blood pressure and ease the Anxiety.
I now have a more positive outlook on life feel happier with myself and know how to control my feelings and Anxiety which has helped my family immensely through what must be the worst times for Stress and Anxiety this country has ever known.

I was having issues with a situation which happened with my partner three years previously. These took the form of flashbacks, re-living situations and conversations, feeling angry and upset, and not being able to let it go or forgive.
The Hypnotherapy helped me understand why it was happening in the context of how the brain works. and it helped me to understand that I had the power to take back control of my emotions and thoughts. This was a great relief to me.
Working with Jill was a very pleasant experience, which always left me feeling more powerful and yet very relaxed. She is very understanding, a good listener, and always comes up with helpful suggestions.
I still have triggers to the past experiences, but firstly, they are less frequent, and secondly now I am able to simply observe them rather than getting angry and upset. I know that these will diminish even more with time - in frequency and intensity, and I have the tools Jill gave me to keep me grounded for the future. I found the whole experience very beneficial. I now have a much better relationship with my partner, which has gone from strength to strength.
