Great positive experience!I went to see Carolyn in regards to losing weight having been 'yo yo' dieting for years. Carolyn makes you feel at ease the minute you walk through the door - having had hypnosis in the past, my experience with her is much more relaxing and enjoyable. I had the 'gastric band' session and in the first month have lost a stone in weight! I am absolutely thrilled. Carolyn is great too with dietary advice, we speak about how my week has been and she offers help and knowledge of her own which is brilliant. Her sessions are making me truly believe I can continue with this into the future and know Carolyn will help me with this. More...

Having had a few issues with finding it difficult to sleep, a friend recommended I visit Carolyn for some hypnotherapy. I began to feel the benefits after my first session, and having had a few sessions now, I’ve been able to sleep - I’m so pleased! Carolyn’s help has really helped change my mindset and helped me get to a much more relaxed place; I would whole heartedly recommend her. Thank you Carolyn! More...

Carolyn enabled me to conquer my fears associated with flying. Amazing!

I contacted Carolyn after realising I needed to sort my fear of flying out. Before seeing Carolyn I would be not sleeping prior to flying, take remedies and once on the flight I would be hysterical and have no control of my feelings and would take days to recover from the flights. After only 2 sessions with Carolyn I felt positive and realised I would be fine. I have just come back from holiday and all I can say is I am cured! No anxiety prior to flight, in complete control and actually enjoyed flying. Even when hitting turbulence for 10 mins I was smiling and talking to my husband rather than hiding under a blanket crying! I can't thank Carolyn enough and would highly recommend her if you go through the same as I once did. Thanks Carolyn x More...

Caroline was the reason I had a wonderful birth experience. I was totally terrified when I met her and by the end if the hypnobirthing course I felt empowered and excited. I went on to have 3 happy births and I still use what I have learnt in my everyday life to help me overcome tough situations. I would highly recommend her services. More...

I visited Carolyn having had some sleeping issues, and she was wonderful. I have visited a few hypnotherapists in the past for insomnia, but none of them really had an effect until I met with Carolyn. Her manner and approach is so calming as well as pragmatic – it really resonated with me, and I’ve been sleeping better since the sessions. I would whole heartedly recommend Carolyn. More...

Carolyn is a kind, caring and exceptional hypno birthing practitioner. I started the course incredibly nervous of labour and left feeling calm and empowered. Carolyn has vast knowledge, a lovely gentle voice and I really caring nature. I cannot thank her enough for all she taught my husband and I about preparing for and giving birth. With her knowledge and advice I have given birth to two beautiful babies in a birthing pool feeling completely calm and in control. More...

Carolyn is a very experienced professional who I recommended to my family and friends. In fact I had engaged her to give my therapist group demonstrations and presentation.

I initially went to Carolyn for help with my driving nerves as I could not seem to keep it together during practical tests. Last week, I finally passed my driving test and I don't think I could have done it so calmly and confidently without her support. Carolyn has a very soothing nature and so you really feel you can disclose whatever issues are holding you back, and she shows a really inspiring dedication to helping you overcome them in a way that leaves you feeling quite empowered.

What do you love most about your job?
I love helping people reclaim their lives. Often clients are held back by a lack of self confidence in their own abilities, and it is so great to see them get to know themselves better and realise that they are 'good enough', in fact way more than good enough' to deserve to live a happy and fulfilled life.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I am a qualified accountant, but always felt like I was a square peg in a round hole. After having children, I realised that the time had come to pursue my own dreams, and hypnotherapy was something I had always been interested in. It fitted in with the family and also I found I had a natural aptitude for it. Starting my business was the next natural step.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have lots of experience in helping people. I have been practising for over 10 years now and there are few things that shock or surprise me any more, and for the most part I will have found a solution to your particular issue ( or something very similar) at some point in the past
Also I am highly trained, and am committed to significant ongoing training and development. I use Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy which uses CBT skills in conjunction with Hypnosis. CBT is the therapy used most widely in the NHS, mainly because it is evidence based and it works.
Thirdly, I have my own dedicated therapy room, so I am not sharing facilities, which means that my availability is enhanced.
Finally, it is important to note that clients need to have a good rapport with the person they chose as their therapist. I have uploaded a short video of myself on You Tube if you want to have a look, or see it on my website www.carolynpotter.co.uk
Weight Loss and Hypnotic Gastric Band
Having lost 35 pounds in weight myself during 2016, there is very little about weight loss that I don't know. I offer the hypnotic gastric band as a great kick start to your weight loss journey. However I offer so much more that that in techniques to change your thinking so that you feel satisfied and positive and in control of your eating and your life. I will help you control your cravings and stay positive and focussed for the long term, which is what is necessary if you want to achieve weight loss of greater than 7 lbs.
