testimonials about Penelope Ling Hypnotherapy

What Clients have said…

Firstly I would like to make it clear that the people who have given testimonials have done so because they are enthused by how well the therapy went. It’s down to the individual to give. I also for privacy, protect those who do by only using initials, and sometimes I will change the initials so that it’s completely anonymous, that goes for the outcomes too. Don’t forget Outcomes are as important as testimonials, see them on the Outcomes page.

Interview nerves

*Hello Penny
I wanted to let you know that I had an interview for a job today. Don’t know whether I was successful or not but as you know to be able to attend the interview was a success in its own right. Can’t thank you enough for giving me my life back.
I felt some anxiety and was very nervous but I was able to manage the whole process in a much more “normal” state of mind.
Thank you again.
Very kind regards

Cristina

Dancing again after an accident

Afraid to drive after an accident

* I am so happy with the outcome of my hypnotherapy sessions, I feel like a new person who is less anxious, and stressed and is much more relaxed and confident.  I was doubtful if this would work initially but decided it was worth trying and I have been so surprised by the results – this really worked! Following a car accident, I was so anxious about driving I was actually getting pains in my chest and was starting to dread getting behind the wheel for days, even weeks, before I had to drive somewhere.  This had been going on for some time and it was affecting my life.

Following my hypnotherapy sessions I can now drive without feeling anxious or stressed and the pains have gone.  My whole outlook on driving has changed and it has given me back my independence and freedom to plan and go on trips and journeys.  I also feel much more positive generally and so it has improved my quality of life and I am also sleeping much better at night.  This outcome has far exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much Penny*.

A level student helped to sleep to prepare for rowing championships

A level student regains confidence in exam results

*Hi Penny, I thought I should let you know that your therapy has completely changed me for the better. Since our final session not only have I not suffered an attack like before, but the thoughts have hardly come into my head. I remember one night where the same thoughts came to me and caused me to sit up however despite something like that almost certainly causing me to have an attack a while ago, I was able to deal with the thoughts all by myself which was something I never thought I could do. I think your therapy also helped me to focus on GCSEs and I am delighted to tell you that I ended up getting 7A*s and 6As, something I am immensely proud of. Thank you again.*

At last found the ability to stick to a diet

*”I can’t thank you enough for all your help. I was in such a state when I first came to you, and came to realise how many things were stopping me from losing the weight – low confidence from a break up, long hours, long commute time – all were stopping me sorting out a diet plan. Now I have spent the past month sticking to a set Slimming World regime which worked years ago, but I lost interest in, and now I’m losing a steady 2lbs a week.”*

MA Marcham


Gymnastic medal winner

*”I wanted to share with you how well LG has been getting on since visiting you about her gymnastic block. She has managed to get all the skills back and competed at her first full competition for over a year on Sunday, getting a silver medal!

Thanks for all your help, she is so much happier”*

How Hypnotherapy sports performance gave me a better job

*”Just wanted to let you know the snow boarding went ok – no issues! Also I accepted a job working in the product development department of a major car company, with your help I had the confidence to apply and breeze the two interviews. Just wanted to say thank you and will continue to recommend you to people. Thanks again.”*

Getting in the right frame of mind

*”I am thrilled to say that when I went to Slimming World yesterday I hit the 1 stone barrier! When I was a SW member a couple of years ago I spent over a year trying to achieve what I have managed in 6 weeks this time. Thank you for whatever you have reprogrammed in my head that has enabled me to move forward, stop craving chocolate, lose weight and start running! I never would have believed that I could run over 4 miles without stopping on my 3rd run ever.”*

KP Abingdon


Sporting Success

*”Having broken a leg training, I went to Penny in order to try and rebuild my confidence in order to get back into running. Penny took a holistic approach and helped me with my self-confidence, but also with both my sleep and stress levels. Her work was excellent and really effective – by the end of our time together I was running again and remain a runner to this day! I have a completely different approach to challenges and injuries, which has really helped me with my career as a runner. I still use the sleep/stress management hypnosis CDs when I can’t sleep. Utterly invaluable!

I can’t recommend Penny enough – she’s a wonderful, friendly and inspirational person. She puts you at ease and makes you feel safe and comfortable. I am now an advocate of hypnotherapy and have no compunction in recommending either it and Penny to them.”*

Driving phobia

*”Hi, Penny. Thank you for all your help. We hired a van to help my son move over 400 miles. It was fine, I was so pleased and it’s made life so much easier for my husband and I. I enjoyed coming to see you and am pleased with the results.”*

MD Portishead


IBS

*”Hi Penny, I doubt you will remember me as it was some time ago now that I came to you in Long Ashton for treatment for IBS. (The lady with the broken foot!)

I have been meaning to say that even though I was totally cynical, as I am sure you are aware, things have improved greatly despite being made redundant recently. I have done two trips to Scotland without any problems and dealt with the upheaval of the job loss – so thank you very much.”*

LG Portishead


Fibromyalgia

*”I hope you’ve found lots of new clients in you move to Oxfordshire. I have seen other therapists a few times, but they are not the same as you. It takes time to get used to someone else, but I don’t relax as easily as I did with you.”*

SC Nailsea


Wedding day nerves

*Thank you for your help in getting me ready for our wedding day and saying my vows. I am happy to say that I was a calm, smiley bride and didn’t start blubbing at any point in church and said my vows (apparently) confidently!!

It was a wonderful day from start to finish and I or we couldn’t have enjoyed it more and I only wish it had gone a bit more slowly!*
