Willow Hypnotherapy — Hypnotherapy service in Edinburgh, Scotland

Having tried various counselling techniques, to try to resolve issues of lack of control over my emotions and responses Alison was a complete breakthrough. To my surprise, the hypnotherapy sessions have really helped me to re-gain a measure of calm and personal well-being, which has been noticed by my partner and I am extremely grateful to Alison. I would heartily recommend her as a therapist. A safe space which you can totally trust.

This was my first experience of hypnotherapy and working with Alison has been eye-opening. The pre-session consultation helped me to reflect on my current issue and what I needed out of the session. It made me feel that Alison was very prepared when we began the hypnotherapy. Alison explained clearly what was going to happen and a little about how it works (the science bit). I felt very involved and that it was a collaborative process. During the session, I felt nicely relaxed yet focused on the things I wanted to achieve (in this case, moving forward from a period of ‘stuckness’ and procrastination at work). The imagery used in the session was really useful and the techniques that Alison gave me to work on in my own time have helped me to remove obstacles and move forward with clarity. Alison has a calming, supportive manner and is very knowledgeable and passionate about hypnotherapy – how it works and why it is beneficial. I would highly recommend Alison.

Alison helped me to deal with my anxiety and feelings of being overwhelmed when setting up my new business. She offers helpful advice alongside her hypnotherapy treatments. I feel peaceful and calm and relaxed following a treatment and I have tools to connect with to take me through stressful situations and daily living and working. I recommend Alison and Willow Hypnotherapy very highly.

I can't thank Alison enough for helping me get over a 30 year smoking habit. Having tried every other stop smoking method, as a last resort I tried hypnotherapy. More fool me, it should have been my 1st choice, and it certainly will be in the future when dealing with other life issues. The first time I spoke with Alison, it was clear she was one of the most kindest, caring people you can meet. I found myself telling her my life story within minutes of meeting her. It's been life changing, my health has improved an incredible amount. I really look forward to my next session with her.

I was slightly hesitant as to whether hypnotherapy would work for me. Alison however answered all of my questions, held a deeply supportive space and I found the experience extremely positive. I felt Alison helped me discover more about my self which in turn has allowed me to address issues and move forwards. I can definitely recommend Alisons service, her knowledge and experience is clearly evident.

After years of bad experiences with various healthcare providers, finding Alison was a breath of fresh air. Through her intelligent and intuitive sessions, Alison addresses core issues in a nurturing and elevating way. After one session, I felt my anxiety lift and for the first time in years, I felt that I could face the world honestly and with direction. Her sessions not only help alleviate symptoms daily but provide you with a series of tools to carry into the world so you can gain control over your emotions and life again. She's an inspiring woman and I am eternally grateful to have her as a therapist. Her sessions and guidance gave me back my life. Thank you, Alison!
