The Excel Practice - Reading, Berkshire Hypnotherapy — Mental Health Services in Reading, England

I went to see Matthew last year. I was nervous going as I didn’t know what to expect but Matthew had me feel very relaxed and after just 2 sessions I over came my addiction. 10 months on and I’m still on track, feeling better then ever and my life has completely transformed. Matthew also checked in a couple of times to make sure I’m still ok. Can’t recommend and thank Matthew enough. 5 star review!!

I went to Matthew for help with public speaking anxiety. After only three sessions I felt much more relaxed before presentations and I was able to present with confidence to the extent that I now enjoy it. This was a breakthrough that was transformative for me as I previously dreaded giving presentations and suffer with anxiety. I wholeheartedly recommend Excel for hypnotherapy

I used Matt to assist me with detaching from something that I was attached to by way of hypnotherapy. His methods worked well, did the job and was all done remotely. I have used other therapists before and none of them would check in on me between sessions. Matt would check in and ask how things are going. I highly recommend Matt to anyone considering hypnotherapy. He is more practical in his approach over sympathetic, but that approach is sometimes needed as a lot of sympathy and chatter about something often doesn’t help to find a resolution or practical way of overcoming an issue.

I recently completed a few sessions with Matthew to help manage my anxiety, and the experience has been transformative! Matthew is non-judgemental and creates a very calm environment. He listened to my concerns and took a personalised approach for each session, to help me overcome the root cause of my anxiety. After even the first session I felt so much better! I responded differently to situations that would usually trigger my anxiety, and felt so much calmer. Matthew has also helped me to find practical ways to cope with my anxiety outside of sessions. Matthew’s sessions were very effective and I could not recommended him enough!

I had been trying unsuccessfully for 8 months to quit smoking since starting again during lockdown. I was recommended Matthew by a friend who’d successfully quit after seeing Matthew. I saw Matthew at the start of July 2024. He was very nice, the session felt very informal, relaxed and I was totally conscious of my environment the whole time. I’ve not touched or craved a cigarette since I walked out of the first session. Best money ever spent!

I had two sessions with Matthew to help deal with my anxiety. I feel that in just a short amount of time he has helped me and given me the tools to control my anxiety. I fully recommend Matthew if you need guidance and help with your well being.

I highly recommend Matthew's services. He has helped me resolve my long-standing issues in just three sessions. I was able to quit smoking after a single hypnotherapy session in October 2018 and have not touched a cigarette since. Recently, he also assisted me in overcoming my caffeine addiction, which had been impacting my health for some time. After just two hypnotherapy sessions, I have been caffeine and coffee-free for a month. If you value your well-being, I encourage you to contact Matthew. He is an approachable and professional hypnotherapist who provides excellent services for a variety of issues.

I’ve had four or five sessions with Matthew to help me get over motorway driving anxiety. I’d never had hypnotherapy before but enjoyed the sessions and found Matthew easy to talk to & be comfortable around. My anxiety is a lot better than it was and I’m pretty certain Matthew has played an important part in that.

I contacted Matthew to help me get over anxiety while driving. I found Matthew to be very professional and friendly. He was able to put me at ease with a thorough explanation of the way he would use hypnotherapy to help me with my anxiety. I had a number of sessions with Matthew and have now resumed driving on busy/fast roads without the anxiety that I had previously encountered. It feels great to have overcome this fear with Matthew's help. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with anxiety - he has allowed me to conquer my fear of driving, which had become a real issue. Thanks Matthew!

I highly recommend Matthew, he changed my life! The sessions with Matthew have been a tremendous help, his experience, knowledge and especially his manner made me feel completely at ease from the first session. We have worked on brilliant methods of controlling the severe anxiety attacks I once suffered from. Anxiety and panic attacks no longer control my social and work life, I have managed to increase my earnings by 20%, this is simply because I can work a full week without suffering anxiety attacks. Many thanks for the excellent and personal service I received!!
