Raise Hypnotherapy - Southport

I did a hypnotherapy course with Debbie and I was pleased with the results 🙂

Debbie helped me understand a lot about anxiety and stress in a welcoming and supportive environment. I enjoyed the positive thinking that she taught me and I am glad I did sessions with her.

I went to see Debbie in January 2024 after being told by the hospital that they thought that a lump found by a mammogram would be cancer which was later confirmed after a biopsy. I said to Debbie that I didn’t want to cry at the hospital and I have managed not to. Debbie also gave me a recording that I have listened to regularly throughout my treatment (two operations and a three week course of radiotherapy) which I believe has been invaluable in helping me cope and get through it. She suggested that I should also listen to it at night to help me get back to sleep if I woke up and I found that this did work. I am still listening to the recording over 9 months later and would like to say a big thank you to Debbie.

Debbie quickly put me at ease and helped me to understand and move past my anxieties. I am much more positive and able to fulfill the tasks I was too afraid of before. Debbie is very calm, patient, caring and easy to get on with. Definitely recommend her.

** Update - I have now completed my treatment and I am thrilled! After years of being extremely stressed around people when they are eating I no longer feel any negative emotions about it. When people start to eat I do initially expect to be uncomfortable but I soon realise that I am not. This is amazing. Not only has it addressed my issues with eating, but I am so much more relaxed in general. The treatment has helped so much with my anxiety and outlook in general. Huge thank you Debbie, you’ve changed my life forget better.

This treatment is life changing. I have not yet completed my hypnosis journey, but the changes I have seen are fantastic. Debbie makes me feel so welcome, at ease and not judged during each session. It has been fascinating to learn about brain functions, and I’m impressed by Debbie’s extensive knowledge on the matter. I highly recommend Raise Hypnotherapy. If you have something to address I would say to start your journey now, I am so very glad that I have!!

Debbie is a dream, she is so calming, so attentive, makes you feel comfortable and relaxed and like you could talk to her forever! She also has a good sense of humour which always helps 🙂 thank you Debbie, I’ll miss our sessions.

I strongly recommend Debbie.
Being new to hypnotherapy, I came to see her with an open mind, and a hint of scepticism.
Her plain English, logical, scientific approach and calm demeanour soon had me settled and feeling confident.
My fear WAS drowning in an enclosed space, and having recently found out that a river cruise (booked by friends) entailed sleeping below the water line -I was very unsettled, scared, and willing the Rhine to run dry!
I’m pleased to say that by the end of the 4th session, I DIDN’T want the Rhine to run dry, and was actually worried that the recent heatwave in Europe, would do just that!
I returned from my holiday this week, and am still amazed by my complete lack of fear - even when a huge wake of water completely enveloped the bedroom portholes, and even actually liking the sound of the nightly slap-slap of the water against the hull- right next to my head.
During my sessions, Debbie gently probed to ascertain the reasons for my fear - and guided me towards exploring relevant past experiences.
I was given techniques and exercises to do at home, to lessen the impact of this fear on my daily life.
It’s very important to put the time in, to undertake these exercises, in order to get the full benefits.
I have found that I am even more positive than I felt before, and more capable in dealing with stressful situations.
I am also aware that I subconsciously use many of the tools Debbie gave me.
I wouldn’t hesitate in seeing Debbie again, should the need arise.

I cannot rate Debbie highly enough. I came into this with a slight scepticism but prepared to put in the work I needed to but working with Debbie was far from hard work. She pinpoints the issue and gives relatable, real-life explanations and next steps which are easy to integrate into your life. Debbie is easy to talk to and really puts you at ease - the best thing I did was to get in touch. Thank you so much Debbie!!

We approached Debbie for support after our 8 year old daughter was diagnosed with a chronic pain condition.
From our first phone call Debbie’s calming and gentle nature had an impact on our approach.
My daughter really enjoyed her sessions with Debbie. The relaxation stories/tracks she sent through have been fantastic and used daily.
My daughter described Debbie as calming, friendly and kind. She helped her feel less scared and more in control.
From a parents perspective I cannot praise Debbie highly enough. Her wonderful explanations of quite complex concepts empowered my daughter to understand and take ownership of her condition. We’re not at the end of our journey but thanks to Debbie we’re a lot further ahead than we would have been. Thank you so much for your support Debbie. I cannot recommend you highly enough!
