Life Flow Hypnotherapy — Hypnotherapy service in Cambridge, England

I’ve been meaning to write a review for a while. I genuinely cannot thank Severin enough for all she’s done for me. I was super skeptical about whether hypnotherapy would work for me for my pseudo dysphagia which had quite honestly ruined my life (I had to quit my job because of it, was losing weight, every meal was a struggle and I just felt so isolated). I had tried two rounds of CBT with two other therapists which sadly I had to stop on their advice as it wasn’t helpful and I seemed to be getting worse. I was recommended Severin through a friend. I had 4 sessions and I noticed an immediate change after the first session, I was able to tolerate eating a meal in front of others! Over the next few weeks I saw small improvements, but those small improvements turned into big improvements and now 5 months after my first session I am able to eat most meals without a problem. I even have managed to eat some meals out at restaurants which was my ultimate goal. I am now in a place where I’m able to return to work which I am honestly thrilled about. I was so stuck for such a long time and I finally feel like I’m getting my life back. Thank you so much. I also did one session with Severin for my driving anxiety and I was able to finally drive on the motorway to see my friends. I will definitely be booking future sessions if I feel I need them (perhaps in preparation when I start my first shift back at work) because the difference in confidence I have is honestly so worth it to me. Severin is professional and really knows her stuff. She’s always made me feel super comfortable and I would recommend her ten times over to anyone struggling with anxiety in any form.

Sevarin is a miracle worker! After having 3 sessions to ease my anxiety after years of trauma, I now feel happier, calmer and able to move on. I was stuck in fight or flight mode and now feel more present in the now. Everyone has noticed a positive change in me and I can’t recommend Sevarin enough. Thank you 🙏

I have never had Hypnotherapy before and visited Sevarin for help with an anxiety triggered after a difficult experience. The therapy was very relaxed and Severine was superb, in three sessions she was able to address anxiety that had been accumulating for over 30 years. I had previously tried CBT and Psychodynamic therapy and for me this hypnotherapy was by far the most effective . Thanks Sevarin!

My husband and I came to Sevarin for some support around the stress and anxiety of trying to conceive. Not having experienced hypnotherapy before we did not know what to expect. Sevarin was incredibly warm, welcoming and non judgmental. She made us feel at ease and able to explore what we really wanted from the sessions from day 1. Hypnotherapy has been transformational for us both in managing our stress and anxiety. After every session we felt lighter, more positive and able to cope with the challenges we were facing. This is a tool we will be actively using in the future and would highly recommend.

I had the profound pleasure of being hypnotised by Sevarin, in a regression session. She has a calm voice and the session went at a gentle pace for me, allowing subconscious images to come freely. Questions are open and there is nothing but the agreed intentions being inserted and reinforced during the session. My warmest recommendations to anyone considering her as a hypnotherapist.

I was very doubtful that hypnotherapy would help me break my “addictive” involvement with online gaming. One session with Sevarin Bennett changed my mind. We had a gentle conversation in which Sevarin posed questions about the nature of my problem, and the many difficulties it created. Then I lay down on a comfortable bed and relaxed while Sevarin spoke about my issue, and how I might overcome it. I was hypnotised, but more or less aware of everything she said. I left her office after 50 minutes feeling slightly dazed, but considerably more able to rein in the gaming. Two more sessions and the destructive impulse was completely under control. Hypnotherapy with Sevarin was painless, brief and wonderfully effective.

I have struggled with skin picking disorder, also known as dermatillomania or excoriation (which is classified as a body focused repetitive behaviour) on and off since primary school (I’m now 30) and have tried CBT and psychodynamic therapy in the past, which have been very valuable but have not effectively treated this lifelong habit. I am so grateful and that I tried hypnotherapy with Sevarin, as after 3 sessions I have reduced skin picking almost entirely for over 3 weeks (at the time of writing this review). Sevarin made me feel comfortable from the offset, meaning that I felt safe to be honest and trusting in the process. She explained everything clearly and made sure that I understood. I had 3 sessions in total, but started noticing the effects from my first session. In addition to curbing my body focused repetitive behaviours, I have noticed increased self esteem and confidence. I would definitely recommend hypnotherapy to anyone with BFRD symptoms or behaviours, as well as anxiety or low self esteem. One piece of advice would be that you need to go into it with an open mind and when the time is right for you. Thank you Sevarin!

Sevarin is kind and in 8 sessions got to the root of my daughters panic attacks and helped her overcome a fear of a panic attack on a flight. By session 8 we booked a flight and she managed to get on it where previously twice before the fear had been so severe she could not even get in the car to drive to the airport. The first few sessions calmed her anxiety and then Sevarin went deeper and was always supportive and made my daughter feel able to be in control of the sessions and take things at her pace. We both learnt so much about the way the brain works and practical techniques to manage the anxiety before it takes a deeper hold. So grateful to Sevarin.

I was a little nervous and unsure of what to expect from hypnotherapy, but Sevarin quickly put me at ease. The sessions were both relaxing and highly beneficial. Having struggled with anxiety for years, I’ve noticed a real difference after just four sessions—I feel more confident, calmer, and more in control. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sevarin to friends and colleagues, and already have.

Hypnotherapy with Sevarin has been really helpful for me. I have made a lot of progress with my anxiety and overall mindset through our sessions. I would recommend her to anyone looking to feel better both short term and long term as the sessions are really relaxing and the effects are lasting.
