Testimonial
"i am
a 25 year old girl from germany and live in london since 2 years. about 3 weeks
ago i met jack raymond through a friend and was curios about his profession
and if he maybe could help me. since i was little as long as i can
remember i had an eating problem. i just couldn't stop, couldn't resist to
anything, sweets and all the heavy foods. couldn't resist to all that cravings
which followed me the whole day.
as
i went to see jack the first time i explained to him what i've seen as a major
problem for myself. in
the first session he did a little of accupuncture, hypnotherapy and he used
this kind of electropulsethingy, to find out which kind of treatment my body
would respond to. after the first session, i had 1 week to go to see him again,
i felt little changes. i wasnt feeling as cold as i used to and yes maybe
i didnt have had that amount of cravings like i used to, but no i still
was not happy with the results. but of course, how much can u expect from
just the first time!?
and
see when i talk about beeing happy, this is what i want. i know that there
was still something in me, smthg. which was not right in my mind, smthg.
which made me eat. i guessed that it had something to do with my childhood.
so i was always fat, it never was fun going to nursery, school or even
out of the house. so i thought the food i ate was my comfort, my friend,
something which was always there for me.
a
week later i went to see jack again. i told him about the changes and about
the thought of the source of my eating problem and about the unhappiness
i carried around my whole life so far. this
time he went for hypnosis. in full relaxation i could listen to what he was
saying and asking and i could feel what my inner self, my soul or whatever
u call it, was responding. it was amazing.
as
soon as we finished i felt as light, shiny and happy as i never did before
and as i never could have imagined. in one hour, u won't believe, he changed
my life. soo
many things in me changed, just for the positive. i've
lost my cravings for sweets. not like before, when i desperately needed min.
one chocolate bar a day, when i ate massive amounts of food everyday, sometimes
non stop.
no,
now i can't even finish half of the portion of food i used to have. i eat
regularly 3 times a day and if i see sweets wherever it is, i am not even interested
in it. i even started doing sports, which i hated doing at all. i go
fast walking with some running for an hour on my 2 off-days and even sometimes before
work. i do exercising every day and it just comes out of nowhere. i
enjoy it now and i just feel in mood for it.
i
have to thank jack so much, for beeing able to be and feel happy about life,
about things i achieved, i do and live. about me beeing able to be a better
person to myself. thanks jack, thank u so much!"
Hypnotherapy is safe and enjoyable
You might have picked up a sensationalised picture of hypnosis from the media or stage shows. Please put that out of your mind. If you come to see me you should have a really enjoyable as well as powerful experience, during which you are always in control.
Hypnotherapy: you're in charge
At every point I will ask if you are willing to let go of old habits; everything needs your permission. I am just there to be a seasoned guide for you who knows and loves the territory, and is there to take you where you want, at the pace that is right for you and by the most pleasant route possible.
Light trance hypnotherapy
I did my first hypnotic induction when I was twelve years old so, as far as therapies go, this is my first and longest love. My definition of hypnotherapy is 'using a light trance state for positive change'. You might think that a deep trance is necessary but that is not the case.
Any time that you are absorbed in or focussing on something you are effectively in a light trance. Even watching television or reading a book are forms of trance, as is looking at a computer screen as you are now doing.
You might well say, "I didn't feel hypnotised" or "I heard every word". Usually it feels as if you could get up straight away if you wanted to, but you just can't be bothered. You're not coming to me to be 'hypnotised'; you are coming to have your life improved. My job is to create positive change in you, not to knock you out.
My training in hypnotherapy
I trained at the Association of Qualified Curative Hypnotherapists (Therapy Training College) in Birmingham, followed by The Atkinson-Ball College of Hypnotherapy and Hypnohealing and finally a course in Ericksonian hypnosis, psychotherapy and NLP with British Hypnosis Research at St Ann's Hospital, London.
This has given me experience with techniques ranging from the direct Elman style to the indirect Ericksonian style, to deep and powerful Curative Hypnotherapy techniques (hypnoanalysis). All have their place and uses. I also find some techniques of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) useful in certain circumstances and employ them when the occasion demands. This enables rapid changes without a trance state.
I am registered with GHR, the General Hypnotherapy Register as SQHP (Senior Qualification in Hypnotherapy Practice) and agree to abide by their code of ethics.
