I was a 20 a day smoker – I still can’t believe it! …
“I saw Cathy in May this year. I had tried all methods to giving up smoking but never succeeded. I needed to stop for health reasons but there was a big part of me that loved smoking and didn’t really 100% want to.
I spent a Friday morning with Cathy, she was so lovely and easy to talk to. Our session lasted about 2 to 3 hours, I have no idea how long as we just chatted. In the last half hour we did some hypnosis, really more listening and doing exercises Cathy asked me to.
I left, and normally the first thing I would do when I got into my car would be to light up. This time I didn’t and 6 months later still haven’t!
I was a 20 a day smoker. Everyone says ‘well done Liz, you have done so well’ but it hasn’t been difficult at all. I still can’t believe it. My partner smokes and it just does not bother me. I am not a reformed wave my arms in the air non-smoker. It is the strangest thing, I look at smokers and think “why would you: and that is that!”
Cathy was truly amazing, a number of friends who have seen her since have also quit.
My fear was putting on weight, to which we addressed and I haven’t put a pound on.

Thanks to Cathy and her magical way I feel so healthy and happy, no longer a prisoner to the cigarette. I really never thought it could happen! – Liz, London
The sessions I had with you had such a profound impact on me…
“The sessions I had with you had such a profound impact on me, I don’t think I would be where I am now and as happy as I am now if I hadn’t found my assertiveness and confidence again. It is really funny, in the first week of my new job I had to present to about 50 people at the company offsite on what my role was and what my team did and I absolutely loved it. I absolutely love doing presentations now, I find them a great way of communicating and helping people and I don’t for a second think about what anyone is thinking of me. It has been like peeling onions and I find that new layers come off every day especially at work when I do something new for the first time.” – L.J. - Cornwall
I would recommend Cathy to anyone and everyone! …
“I came to Cathy to sort out a few issues mainly being social phobia, low self-esteem and motivation. The techniques that she used were very practical and easy for the subconscious to digest which I think is vital when considering hypnotherapy. We also touched on EFT – Emotional Freedon Technique – which has proved to be very effective with immediate results, plus I can even practise it on the bus to work!
I would recommend Cathy to anyone and everyone! Her kind nature is motivating and inspiring and has had a great impact on me and I’m sure many others. I feel confident, motivated, sociable and more in control of my life after only two sessions. If you are considering hypnotherapy, NLP or EFT, I strongly suggest you to look no further!” - M. B, London

Giving up smoking with Cathy was one of the best decisions…
“Giving up smoking with Cathy was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Even on the day I gave up I still wasn’t sure if it was what I wanted. 3 years on and I can’t believe how tightly I held onto the habit and more importantly how fantastic it is for me and my family to not have to worry about the dangers of continuing.
Cathy’s style is very flexible. I can’t thank her enough. I really recommend Hypnotherapy if you want to kick the habit.” - Jill T, Surrey

…the treatment has been extraordinarily effective…
“I went to see Cathy Simmons in the hope that she could help me to eliminate a few stifling and negative thought processes I had got in to the habit of accepting as normal. As well as having the most fabulously relaxing and enlightening session with her, the treatment has been extraordinarily effective, and I feel like a weight has been lifted. I even enjoyed hearing Cathy shout at me in the middle of the night to “STOP” the train of thought which was keeping me awake, which I immediately did and slept soundly thereafter! ” - S.P. – North London
I found Cathy warm and approachable & I felt very safe with her…
“I found Cathy warm and approachable and I felt very safe with her. We focused on a pretty difficult issue in the session and yet I came out of it feeling very light and open which was quite a revelation. I’d been considering training in Cognitive Hypnotherapy myself and it was as a result of the session with Cathy that I decided to go ahead. It was a decision I’m glad I made and I’m very grateful to Cathy for inspiring me. ” - L.F. – London
… no cigarettes in my life any more …
“Since I saw you, Cathy, things are really good – no cigarettes in my life any more, and it has been over 1.5 years”- N. M. – London

The Ethics of Testimonials
It is worth mentioning here, that under the rules of our Professional Association, the NCH, testimonials had not historically been allowed. They can easily be fabricated by unscrupulous advertisers, or misquoted. So how are you to know that they are genuine, especially as they are mainly anonymous, in order to maintain client confidentiality?
The NCH has recently chosen to adopt the CNHC Code of Ethics, which allows testimonials. However, in order to do this I have to be able to provide proof on request that these are genuine, and that the client has given permission for them to be on the website – which is a good thing, isn’t it, and still maintains confidentiality.
