★★★★★★★★★★Ray ChuAug 2024

When I first approached Adrian, I was a mess, thinking there's no way anyone would be able to get me over the constant panic attacks, the stress and help resolve my sound issues. I was having daily panic attacks over my noisy fridge which quickly developed into a full blown sound phobia response to everything. I was under immense stress on a daily basis, from taxi radios, work music, electronic buzzing...I felt ridiculous about it but also trapped and embarrassed to talk about it as it sounded absurd. Adrian didn't once make me feel embarrassed and led me through the process, helping me get to the core root of the issues. We did about 6-7 sessions, the hypnosis sessions were amazing. Every time I finished them, I came out very relaxed. Overtime, something shifted and I finally gained the confidence and techniques to manage any situation that came my way. I highly recommend anyone who's feeling trapped like "my problems can never be resolved", honestly, no matter how farfetched they are, give Adrian a try, you'll be happy you did.

Adrian is a true professional. He has helped me so much with my anxiety. He has a non judgmental approach, yet remains professional and gives a clear perspective to help you navigate through your issues. Would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a therapist who has life experience and talks sense!

Adrian is an amazing therapist and I can’t thank him enough! I saw him in January to discuss hypnotherapy for weight loss. Over the last few years I had put on a huge amount of kilos due to medication and health problems mainly, and once things calmed down I was struggling getting back to my normal weight. Adrian saw me for initial assessment, patiently heard me out and told he how he could help me. Obviously this is no a miracle solution and I also got started on a proper diet and workouts, but his sessions were a huge part of my success. I didn’t get to see him for face-to-face sessions that many times because we went into lockdown, and yet I lost a few stones so far. Adrian is also a great person. If you’re stressed out and anxious like me, then he’s just the person to see. He’s extremely easy to talk to, full of empathy, and he’s warm and patient. He is funny, too. And his cabinet is in a beautiful quiet building bang in town centre. Thanks a lot!

I went to Adrian feeling in a total mess with anxiety and obsessive thoughts after having my baby. After just the first session I felt like I had emerged from a fog. I had four sessions in total and happy to say that most days I feel like my old self again, in fact a lot of the time better than my old self. Adrian is really good at making you feel at ease and even if you think you will feel nervous opening up to someone you have just met, don't worry - he makes it feel dead easy and even lots of fun. I really cannot recommend this service enough and cannot thank Adrian enough for the help he has given me and the positive impact that having a happier, calmer and more confident mum will have on my baby.

★★★★★★★★★★Danielle MensahNov 2018

Adrian helped me overcome a 20 year anxiety problem, which in all honesty, I thought would never go away. After 10 sessions, I am happy to report life changing results, and thank Adrian for helping me overcome such a big barrier. I thoroughly recommend Adrian and cannot speak any higher of him to friends and family.

★★★★★★★★★★Peter HynesNov 2017

Prior to meeting Adrian I had been to see other therapists over several years, my issues had remained largely unresolved however. By contrast I cannot recommend Adrian’s service enough. Over the months I have worked with him I have seen a marked improvement in all of the areas that I wished to tackle (and even in some areas I hadn’t realised were holding me back). My confidence is now very high and I believe that I’ve made significant progress and developed techniques for the management of my anxiety and intrusive thoughts that have allowed me to get my life back. Additionally working with Adrian has not only enabled me to deal with my problems but beyond that I’m now making real progress towards realising some of the ambitions that have always been on the back-burner to my anxiety until now. Adrian is personable, relaxed, easy to talk to and sees to the heart of problems very quickly. I consider myself to be someone who has thought deeply about the issues effecting me but Adrian was able to bring new perspectives to my situation and had a desire to deal with the root causes of a problem not just the surface issue. I firmly believe that choosing to work with Adrian has solved my issues and that I will continue to reap the benefits of his help in the months and years to come.

★★★★★★★★★★Chris AJun 2015

I contacted Adrian for help with confidence in my professional career. I didn't feel confident talking to new and prospective clients with pitching for business and advising their marketing strategies. Adrian really helped me with my confidence and my ability to present in front of clients and prospective clients. He immediately makes you feel at ease with his informal approach, and makes sure you get the most out of every session. I highly recommend Adrian.

★★★★★★★★★★Matt WallisApr 2015

I had a great experience with Adrian. I felt very nervous about talking to someone for a while but Adrian put me at ease and I felt comfortable talking to him. Before I visited, I felt down all the time and had confidence issues. Now I'm a very upbeat person and feeling a lot more confident! I highly recommend this service.

★★★★★★★★★★Matt JJun 2013

I decided to seek some professional assistance in helping me to overcome fear and anxiety in my working life, having been promoted into a job where I had often felt out of my depth and nervous in putting my opinion forward. After spending some time researching candidate therapists online, I took the plunge and got in touch with Adrian. It is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I don't feel that anything I write here will do justice to the positive impact Adrian has had on my life in only a handful of sessions. I feel the benefit in all aspects of my life. I feel far more confident at work, and feel myself growing stronger with every challenge I take on. I am volunteering to run things that I know I would have shyed away from previously. I am more open with friends and family, and especially with my wife. I'm more relaxed in whatever situation I find myself in. And most importantly I feel that this is just the start as I can feel the confident-me emerging more and more each day. Thank you Adrian.

★★★★★★★★★★Amy EJan 2013

When I read the reviews of Adrian, everyone seemed to have one or two specific problems that they could identify as something they needed help with. Me however, I felt like I needed help with everything and couldn't quite pin point what I wanted out of hypnotherapy - just that I wanted to feel better. Adrian quickly identified my needs during the consultation and made me feel incredibly at ease - I knew at once that I would be returning to begin sessions. Adrian is an extremely clever and insightful person who's experience can really benefit anyone who needs confidence and guidance with certain aspects of their life. I personally felt that I had benefitted incalculably through increased confidence and most importantly a measure self respect. After each session I was left so motivated and positive that I'd get in my car, turn the music up and sing! I felt Adrian's words coming into my mind during every day situations which would further enhance the positive suggestion and learning. To this day, at least 2 months after my final session, I still find myself relating back to what I learnt with Adrian and my feelings about myself have not 'relapsed' so to speak. I would highly recommend Adrian to anyone who is thinking about exploring hypnosis, CBT, NLP etc because hand on heart it has changed my life through the way I think. He is a very very clever man - he is also kind, sensitive and remembers every detail of what you tell him. He even emailed me a month after to see how I was getting on. I am now more able to handle bad situations, I don't over-think, I have self respect and by putting this all together, I am ultimately a happier person who can deal with the challenges life throws at me
