Hypnotherapy for anxiety attacks - client testimonial
"Last year I was giving up hope, so depressed, suffering major anxiety attacks, feeling the lowest I have ever been, nothing was working and my last attempt at claiming my life back was messaging Mind and body, Renee looked friendly from the pictures what did I have to loose, I arrived at the blue door absolutely terrified about to turn around , and their Renee was a friendly welcome a much needed smiley face and a ear that listened, we came up with a plan and I stuck with it a year later, I am less anxious, less depressed and the best I have felt in a long time. I honestly don’t think I would be here today and I have Renee to thank for it, I have not only reclaimed my life but have met a friend for life in Renee. I cant thank her enough.
My son was suffering dealing being a military child with a father that is constantly away, and bully’s at his school he was upset and struggling to deal with things, the slightest thing was getting to him, I turned to Renee yet again, after only a couple of sessions my son was sleeping much better, more relaxed, less upset and stressed, he calls Renee the magic word lady and I have noticed a huge improvement in him and the school are over the moon with his progress. Again the amazing Renee strikes again." Samantha Read more testimonials

It is a fact that sexual difficulties increase stress, and stress contributes to sexual difficulties, so the cycle goes on and on... It is truly a vicious circle that can cause needless upset, hurt and misunderstandings. |
But you don't have to put up with it because, in most cases, the situation can be greatly improved, sometimes beyond all recognition. Very often the three cousins - guilt, shame and embarrassment, cause an increase in stress and can make it difficult to seek a therapist.

Psychosexual Therapy Testimonial
"I found Renee after searching tirelessly through all of the hypnotherapists and psychological therapists in the Lothian/s. What really attracted me to her was that she was the only therapist listed in Scotland qualified through the Essex Institute and listed on www.sexualstress.com as a Psychosexual Therapist.
At the first appointment it was brilliant, quite demanding but not in an awkward way, Renee made me feel very comfortable, not intimidated at all. It was a huge relief to be able to discuss freely what my life WAS like. She listened, she questioned, she even challenged me but it was fantastic and she helped me to realise that I did not have a sexual disorder but just an alternative lifestyle that I wanted to explore more than I had ever done before.
I continued to visit Renee and each time I left feeling massively better than the previous time. Friends and family can see the new confidence in me and I am so looking forward to a new life and it’s all thanks to Renee." - Paul. M Read more testimonials
​Weight Control, West Lothian
|
The subject of weight control is conflicting and disheartening for many people who have spent long periods of time struggling to lose weight and maintain their health. For decades the media informed us that it was all about calories in and calories out, a simple equation for weight loss.
It is not that simple. |
