Cannot recommend Mandy enough. I was nervous and unsure what to expect but Mandy was So friendly and put me at ease and talking to her was like talking to a friend. The hypnotherapy sessions were amazing, it was so nice to take a hour out from my hectic life and just have complete relaxation in the hypnotherapy session, I've never felt so relaxed & didn't want it to end. The hypnotherapy I had was for a phobia and its changed my life as I am now free to do the things I wanted to because my phobia was holding me back. If you are thinking of trying hypnotherapy I recommend you do and if you go to Mandy you won't be disappointed. More...

I went to see Sherwin after noticing the difference it had made to a colleague of mine. My husband had been diagnosed with terminal brain tumour with a 6 month to a year life expectancy. I contacted Sherwin not to deal with the grief that I knew would come after he passed away but because I knew I was going to be in the forefront of all financial issues, family situations, it would all come to me. I wasn't used to dealing with this. I was also hampered with a lifelong pattern of low self esteem and lack of self belief. I was very worried how I would cope. Seeing Sherwin made me feel more relaxed, made me see how much potential I had and gave me self belief that I could cope, and indeed have done so. Sherwin is patient, explaining, how hypnotherapy works, instills confidence and has been with me all the way. I have no hesitation of recommending Sherwin to anyone who is unable to cope with what is before them More...

My initial thoughts of hypnotherapy were very weary as I know it wasn’t practiced by the NHS and had contrasting views. However, my state of mind was in a bad place and after trying medication, CBT and even being diagnosed with ADD (due to my inability to concentrate) I thought I had nothing else to lose by trying it. After meeting Sherwin for the first session I had already felt a wave of relaxation of well being. Now I have only done 4 sessions with him but that was all I needed. My mental state is better than ever. I don’t take any medication anymore, I am able to socialise again, work and go back to living my normal life. I strongly recommend Sherwin’s services as even if you are skeptical about it - it has a much deeper ability to change you then you would believe. Thank you Sherwin. More...

I contacted Mandy and she immediately got back to me and offered me a free consultation. Despite me being late she made me feel at ease and we spoke about my requirements. Mandy's commitment & dedication to make a difference really stood out to me. The setting is beautiful and her office/room is comfortable. Mandy is available by mobile and promptly replies to texts/calls and is flexible with her approach which is helpful when you work full time, have children or have traffic to face if travelling.

From the moment I met Mandy I felt at ease, she is so welcoming and it's like talking to a friend you've known for ages. It doesn't matter what you need help with, or how long you've felt the way you have, you won't be disappointed. You are fully aware of what Mandy says to you during Hypnotherapy, but are feeling relaxed. I've just had my 6th session today and I'm feeling really different about things, I can't explain how, it's just there in my mind now. You need to try this, it's life changing. Mandy is wonderful. It's not just one thing she can help with, it's as many as it takes, they can be all linked. Be open with what's troubling you. Go on, change your life. Contact her today. I'm really glad I did.

I went to see Sherwin last year because I was unhappy and my personal relationships were suffering. I didn’t know what was ‘wrong’ with me. I expected my first appointments to be intimidating but instead they were relaxing. Sherwin is not just a therapist - he has a deep and genuine desire to help people and felt more of a friend because it became so natural (and a relief) to open up to him. My friends, family and children have all benefited from huge changes in and a closer relationship with me. I could not have imagined having such close personal relationships before. Most importantly, Sherwin helped me to feel comfortable with myself - to be myself, to make the most of every day and I now finally feel genuinely happy and relaxed whatever life may bring.It seems a long time ago now that I did not feel this great and I hope that anyone who is unhappy or lost (for whatever reason) gives Sherwin a chance - you will not regret it.

I went to see Sherwin on the recommendation of a friend, not entirely convinced he could help me, other Hypnotherapists I’d tried had failed, why would this be so different?

I’d been experiencing anger, anxiety, grief, panic, phobias and weight issues for years, since my childhood in fact. Long established behaviours that were impacting on my life, health and well being and I was tired, literally, of feeling this way, it was exhausting.

It sounds like a cliché to say this, but very quickly I felt that Sherwin would help me and he has. In just seven weeks I’m more calm, I’m sleeping well, the anger and defensiveness has gone and my relationship with my partner is as good as its been in a long time.

And the bonus to all this…? I’m finally loosing weight, I have energy and feel good..!!

I now have control over my life instead of the fears and phobias ruling me, its a great feeling, thank you Sherwin..!!!

Mandy is superb at what she does; I cannot recommend her highly enough. I approached the idea of hypnotherapy with a degree of skepticism, but the results she achieved speak for themselves. From my experience, she is professional, empathetic and methodical in her approach, and seems genuinely invested and interested in achieving the desired results through the course of the treatment. I approached my four-session treatment not expecting any results, but in the end far exceeded what I thought possible. Highly recommended. More...

I've always been very sceptical about hypnotherapy, but after my sister recommended Mandy I thought I'd give it a try. Mandy was very kind and approachable, and I very quickly felt at ease talking through my issues and concerns with her.

Sherwin Bodsworth is an excellent hynotherapist, probably one of the best in the country I would say. He helped to get me off prescription drugs in 2017 by giving very good hypnotherapy sessions to help me to relax and focus my mind on getting off the drugs. Sherwin came round to my home and as soon as he started talking to me I felt better. His voice and his way of speaking is very calming. He even took me out walking to help my agoraphobia. He made me my own personal recordings to help with sleep and anxiety problems which helped lot. I am still using him as although I managed to get off prescription drugs, I suffered a corneal ulcer in January 2018 which has affected my vision and I need ongoing councelling. I would thoroughly recommend Sherwin Bodsworth to anyone looking for help with mental problems of any kind. He really walks the extra mile to help you overcome your emotional/anxiety/stress/panic disorder problems. Book him with confidence. More...

I went to Mandy a timid person who allowed stress to manifest internally, resulting in eczema and a scratching habit which left me with raw bleeding skin.

After talking about my need to control the urge to scratch my legs (mainly) and how I like to internalise stress Mandy worked with me to help me.

With everything there are other factors to consider but Mandy has changed my life. I do not say this lightly, I have changed bad habits and learned not to internalise stresses. This in turn has helped my confidence and taken me on a path which has helped me realise my potential. With the tools she gave me I have reduced the scratching dramatically! This apparently was a distressing habit according to my partner, so he has also noticed the change.

Please do not dismiss hypnotherapy, for me it provided such a relief to me! Thank you Mandy for being so positive and patient with me! More...

I went to see Sherwin as I felt I was in a fog in my mind and needed clarity. He has been really helpful in clearing this fog and getting me to having clarity in my mind, I cannot speak too highly of his skills. In a few short weeks he has brought me to a place of confidence, clarity and empowerment. I phoned him when I was feeling something keenly, and needed clarification as to what it was that was troubling me, and in a few short minutes he enabled me to have clear insight into what it was all about! This speaks very clearly of his skill in helping to guide people to come to their own resolution as to what is troubling them. This empowers the person. My confidence has grown significantly and I now understand and trust myself much more, also I have learnt to validate myself instead of wanting others to validate me, and am now much kinder to myself.

Seven years ago we took our son Ben who was six years old at the time to see Sherwin. He was having problems with bed wetting and holding himself from going to the toilet, which was causing him a lot of pain anger and worry. We knew at the time if this was not addressed he would most probably suffer humiliation and teasing at school if and when he soiled his trousers, and were worried this may have a long term effect on him. Thankfully Sherwin was able to resolve these problems completely with kindness and sensitivity. Ben has continued to be free of those problems and has enjoyed a happy life since.A few months ago he began showing sings of anxiety and stress, which started to affect his confidence and sleep. We thought they were most probably being caused by pressures at school, I.e. Exams and expectations. So we didn' hesitate in contacting Sherwin. After four sessions and a personal recording , which Ben listened to each night for about a month, he is now once again a happy confident young teenager. He is sleeping well and taking things in his stride. Ben enjoyed seeing Sherwin again and he was given new mental skills and tools to help him through his adolescent years and on into higher education.This therapy is so beneficial and effective for children, I think everyone should know about it. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Sherwin to anyone. More...

I have struggled with my weight for the majority of my life. I would eat for both pleasure and comfort, and even though I always had a healthy variety of foods, I always overate and had an unhealthy relationship with cheese and pasta! I tried multiple diets, and even tried a personal trainer (with whom I actually gained weight), with either little success or with short lived results. Two years ago, my mother was diagnosed with stage four cancer. This only increased my comfort eating habits, and in the space of one year, I gained more than two stone. I am comfortable with who I am, regardless of size, but due to my mothers health issues and a knee problem of my own, I was desperate to conquer my bad eating habits. I researched numerous hypnotherapists and had a bad taster session with one other therapist. After meeting Mandy, I felt that she was the most likely person who would help me to succeed with the issues regarding my weight, I immediately felt comfortable in her presence and was able to honestly confide my struggles. I visited Mandy in her Maidstone office, which was closest to my home, and was immediately relaxed as I drove up the path to the grand building where her office is situated (It reminded me of a house from the Jane Austen novels). I met Mandy in her office, which is divided into two sections, her main office and her treatment room. By having this separation, each room felt as though they each served a different purpose. We would begin the session in her main office by discussing my progress, issues that week, and recapping what I would like to work on specifically during the session etc. We would then proceed into the hypnotherapy treatment room to begin the hypnosis. This separation allowed me to positively associate the different aspects of the treatment to the different rooms, making the transition from being stressed to feeling calmer easier. The treatment room was smaller and cosy and Mandy immediately made me feel relaxed and calm. To be h More...

Highly recommended hypnotherapy for fear of flying. I have been scared of flying all my life and in recent years it had reached a point where I didnt want to fly.
