As someone who works mainly from home, I was pretty much vaping 24/7 and the thought of quitting terrified me. After just one session with Aaron I've stayed happily vape free. I had about 3 days of feeling a bit off and that's it. I don't really understand how hypnosis works, but it did and it does, and that's the main thing. Am now considering using Aaron to help me tackle my sugar addiction..... will let you know what happens
I had a severe snake phobia and booked a block of 4 online sessions with Aaron. I was extremely anxious about an upcoming holiday to Thailand and the phobia was affecting my excitement. Aaron puts you at ease immediately. I found myself becoming more excited about the holiday as my anxiety lessened with each session. I had an amazing holiday without the fear and anxiety around snakes. I booked a further two sessions as I was still finding that I was affected by seeing snakes suddenly appearing on my phone or TV. I’m so glad I went ahead and booked them. Thank you Aaron.
Emily is amazing. It's incredible how quickly she can get you to open up to the core issues and start to work on them. the sessions we very chilled and relaxed and I learnt so much about myself!
I have been a chocoholic for 40 years! I saw Aaron for help with reducing my sugar intake. I felt even after the first session that I didn’t want anything sweet, and after four sessions I completely cut out all sweet treats, and I haven’t looked back! It has been life changing for me. I would highly recommend Aaron.
57 year old BIRD/PIGEON PHOBIA - GONE!! Arron worked his magic and my horrific bird phobia which I’d had since I was a ONE year old is no longer ruling my life. I had six sessions and a recording on my last session, before embarking on my trip around the world. Where I was going to encounter lots of birds. Arron is unbelievable a true genius and master at his craft !!! I cannot thank him enough. Believe in him and believe in yourself!! Forever grateful!! 🙏🏽🙌🏼🙏🏽
When I first went along I was sceptical and thought I was going to be victim to a scam, due to it being the Christmas break the building was closed and I started to get paranoid but once I saw Aaron (having done some research beforehand) I was instantly relieved. I felt like I had just seen an angel. Aaron was great, once I started the therapy session with him I was taken into the depths of relaxation where Aaron worked at changing my mindset on addiction. I have had a couple of sessions now and cannot recommend him enough. If you had told me a few months ago this is what I would be doing I would have laughed my head off, so I really am proof that it can work for anyone.
My experience with Aaron has been amazing! I arrived a little sceptical that this kind of therapy could work for me but it's as if a switch has been turned on, now everything makes sense, I'm seeing things more clearly than I have in years. I asked for help with self control regarding alcohol initially but he did far more than that, he helped me gain control over all sorts of aspect of my life including family, relationships and my emotions, I was so impressed that I thought I'd go back and see Aaron again, this time for help completely cutting out alcohol (not that I was an alcoholic but fallen into an unhealthy habit I wanted to quit) I'm now able to sit with my husband or friends while they drink and not be in the slightest bit interested. I'm amazed! I feel very content! Thank you so much, your therapy is life changing. Fay
A great service! Emily was very professional and walked me through the whole process of hypnosis with great understanding. I walked out after one session as a new person, not wanting to smoke anymore. It’s been 5 months now and I do not miss smoking! I would highly recommend Emily if your are struggling with dropping smoking habit. Thank you for your help Emily!
After researching for hypnosis therapy sessions for a couple weeks as it was a big decision, came across City Hypnosis. Can definitely vouch for them and Aarons sessions work, very detailed and calm with all my questions answered beforehand. As a returning customer for 2 separate topics he has helped me out greatly and looking forward to working with you more in the future. Well done on the works that you do and making my life better! A*
I’ve been trying to give up smoking for several years I’ve tried patches and vaps but nothing worked. I decided to try hypnosis but was very sceptical about it. I made an appointment to see Aaron and it was the best decision I made. I was smoking 5 x 50g pouches of tobacco a week which was far too much. Since my visit I have not smoked it’s been over 5 weeks now and the money I have saved has nearly covered the cost I paid Aaron. I would highly recommend it my family and friends are very surprised I’ve lasted so long. Every day is a challenge but I’ve not had no craving at all. I can only thank Aaron and good luck to anyone that tries.
