3 Best Hypnotherapy in Salisbury, UK

James has done fantastic work with my daughter (aged 7). She was having trouble dealing with her emotions and temper and this often came out in very prolonged tantrums that left her physically and emotionally drained. We tried numerous techniques from books and advice from friends but it was getting worse not better. I was at my wits end. James had 3 sessions with Ella. 1 per week. I noticed a difference in her behaviour after the first session. She didn’t immediately start screaming when she didn’t get her own way and she took more time to actually listen to the reasons behind why she couldn’t have it her own way. She obviously wasn’t a changed person, she will always be passionate and fiery and we never want to change that. We just wanted to help her develop skills so that she could see how to express herself in a positive way and make herself heard rather than just by having tantrums. James used games and talking methods to help Ella visualise the consequences of her actions and to help her see more constructive ways of expressing her displeasure. He was always very kind, friendly and patient and even helped me see how to change my behaviour to help my daughter. I would highly recommend James. He is very professional and has made a really positive change within our family.

I contacted James when I was in a really low place. His reassurance was comforting right from the start. He was quick to communicate, efficient at arranging appointments and clearly knew his methods and used them with confidence. Over several sessions I felt a powerful shift from being anxious to feeling positive and he had given me the tools to face situations with a different perspective. I have seen many therapists over the years and I can safely say that James has had a very large impact in helping me overcome a long term emotional issue. I can’t thank you enough. - D

I have had a couple of sessions with James for debilitating overthinking, severe anxiety & depression. If you’re looking for help from a Hypnotherapist look no further than James. He is one of the kindest, thoughtful, easiest people to talk to, he shows compassion & is excellent at what he does. He even checks in with you after sessions, I cannot recommend James highly enough. Thank you for everything. - L Reply

I can highly recommend James. He's helped me with a variety of things such as: childhood trauma/abuse, low self esteem, preparing for medical procedures and the trauma/grief caused by recurrent miscarriages. I've seen James for hypnotherapy on and off for a few years. I noticed a difference in just one session. James is so warm and caring. He's very professional and highly skilled. I wish I'd tried hypnotherapy years ago! He's helped me overcome some big barriers. Massive thank you James. Very warm wishes. - JH

My husband Brian has been seriously ill for a long time.He had an operation for an aneurysm on his aorta and before that he, for some reason he couldn't eat,he was slowly wasting away.He didn't have trouble swallowing,he just couldn't face any food or drink.The operation went well, but he still couldn't eat or drink. He ended up losing 5 stone. I thought it must be something in his mind,so I called James Patrickson for help,he kindly came to see him at home,and he definitely helped him,just 1 session. He told Brian it's not wrong to eat,and slowly build up an apetite,which is what he is doing now.Thankfully he seems to have overcome the issue,and soon be back to normal,and is improving daily. I would like to say thank you to James for saving Brian, and I would like to add that James has been brilliant,he has contacted me over the past couple of months to see how he is doing. - AW Reply

Several occasions for different issues, all of which he has managed to help me with. I say help me because I realise that any change I want in my life has to be my own decision and that I am the only one with responsibility for maintaining the change. James was particularly helpful with overcoming phobias, particularly involving snakes and spiders. I was unable to visit my family in Australia and went for 14 years without seeing them as a result of the phobias. It was able to book a flight to Sydney the day after my first session and subsequently have been out to Australia eight times now. I still wouldn’t have a python or a huntsman as a pet but at least they don’t stop me from functioning now! James has a relaxed and easy going style which reflects his confidence and his competence. I have referred other people to James who he had also helped with problems involving motivation, eating disorders, confidence, and phobias and all of them have fed back that their sessions with James have been successful. - RB Reply

I was attracted to hypnotherapy by the results of smokers whom I knew. Alcohol is a far more challenging issue as I found. But I would still encourage fellow travellers to give it a go because I found it helpful. I had used psychotherapists before with varying results and they left me dissatisfied. So I researched hypnotherapy and had conversations with several therapists before settling on Daniel. And why? Because he offered no BS. ? My first session was transformational and I left the premises fully committed to my intention around drinking moderately. That hypnotic session was recorded and I listen to it frequently. Daniel is very personable and unlike psychotherapists engages in conversation offering some of himself therein. That can be helpful in moderation and over a further six sessions I experienced more traditional CBT than hypnosis, yet by the end I felt able to fly free despite the challenges of controlling alcohol as opposed to abandoning it altogether.

I came to see Daniel with my cigarettes and lighter in my bag not sure how I would ever be able to give up my 'old friends'. Through discussion and hypnotherapy, the decision to give up smoking came from me. I chucked the cigarettes and lighter in the first bin I saw on my way home. Little did I know that I would get a serious case of pneumonia a few months later and having given up the cigarettes I was able to fight and recover from the illness. I can honestly say that I am holding strong with my decision and have very few cravings.

I have tried numerous times to give up smoking always feeling miserable and tearful and although not wishing to smoke found it preferable to not smoking. I visited Daniel thinking it was worth a try although sceptical as to whether it would work - but hey what did I have to lose! I have smoked for over 40 years and I can truly say that since I had my last cigarette over a week ago I have not missed them or really thought about smoking. It is really odd and I am quite surprised that I have not experienced any mood swings or anxiety. It is almost like I never smoked - I have had glasses of wine, been out for dinner twice and not once have I craved a cigarette! Amazing!
