About Betty Newman

I became a hypnotherapist after seeing how hypnotherapy can make rapid and permanent changes to such a wide range of problems.

I most enjoy seeing the changes in clients over just a few weeks or in the case of stopping smoking just a single session. Often a client first comes to see me feeling anxious and lacking confidence, and after a couple of sessions feels calm, confident and happier than they have felt in a long time.

I am passionate about hypnotherapy and have a caring, informal approach. It is important to me that you feel comfortable and at ease with me, and when choosing a hypnotherapist you should follow your instincts as to whether that person is right for you.

I work with a wide range of problems in a caring and empathetic manner. I have a great deal of experience with helping people to Stop Smoking and an extremely high success rate. I enjoy helping clients to lose weight and I believe that the Aspira Weight Management Programme is a truly effective way of changing your relationship with food for good.

I am a professionally qualified clinical hypnotherapist registered with The General Hypnotherapy Register. I am committed to undertaking continuing professional development and undergo further training each year. I also practise NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), EMDR (Eyes Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing) and Thought Field Therapy (TFT).

If you have read the website and are still unsure whether hypnotherapy is right for you, please feel free to call me to discuss your problem/concerns. This is completely free of charge and you are under no obligation or pressure to proceed further. All discussions/therapy are completely confidential

Testimonials

Stopping Smoking

"I was smoking 20 cigarettes a day and had done so for the last 14 years. I had just one hypnotherapy session with Betty, and my urge to smoke has just disappeared."

"I can't believe it was so easy!"

"It was so simple to give up smoking - I stopped smoking after just one session. Amazing!"

“From 30-40 cigarettes a day to nothing. I was sceptical but I just don’t want one now.”

“I can’t thank you enough. My breathing has improved and my chest feels so much clearer. I wish I had done this years ago.”

Fear of Flying

"I just wanted to let you know that I was really calm on the flight, and even quite enjoyed it! Which seems really weird, as I would have found just getting on the plane almost impossible before! I am really amazed at how easy it was, and how quickly things have changed."

"So thanks for everything you have done – it’s made such a difference."

Confidence, self-esteem and social phobia

"I had low self-esteem and almost no confidence at all. I hated socialising, and would go out of my way to avoid it, as I really couldn’t cope with speaking to people."

"I found Betty very easy to talk to and I enjoyed every session. Each week I found I improved more, and I ended up feeling better about myself and so much more confident. I have been able to go out with my work colleagues and have been out to restaurants and bars with my friends. I would recommend it to anyone."

Panic attacks

"This has been amazing, I’m doing all the things I was scared of and I don’t even think about panic attacks any more. I wish I’d come to see you years ago!"

Exam nerves and memory improvement

"Just a quick note to let you know that my GCSE’s went really well and I found it easy to remember everything. I was just a little bit nervous beforehand, but that soon went and this time I could really concentrate. I feel quite confident about how well I did, and thank you for all your help."

"I can’t remember feeling so relaxed before. It was a great feeling and the self hypnosis you taught me helps me to relax on my own now. My wife says I’m really chilled out now and I know I am much less irritable."

Fear of public speaking

"Just to let you know that I did the presentation and I didn’t shake or stammer at all. I did everything you showed me and I was really calm and felt in control. My boss was really impressed – maybe I can ask him for a pay rise now!"

Losing weight

"After all these years, I now understand what caused me to overeat.  Now I am in control of my eating and it feels great! I now feel so much more confident and am really optimistic for the future."

"Excellent! I lost 16lbs in four weeks, and have changed my eating habits. I'd recommend it to anyone."
Georgina Newman

"I cannot believe the change after one session. This has completely changed my life and I now feel that I am in control of my weight. It's been a fantastic experience and I'm sure it will stay with me forever. Thank You."
Lisa Mahoney

"My life does not revolve around food any more. I eat what I want when I want. I taste every mouthful. I am not on a diet!"
Lorna Young

"I feel so calm about what I eat now. I only think of food when I am hungry and I have lost weight easily and naturally. It's made a huge change to my life, and I have become a more positive person."
Jane Lewis

We spoke to Jane over a year later and this is what she said

“I’ve lost over 2 stone now and I love going into a clothes shop and knowing that I can choose whatever I want. Thank you so much for your help”
