My 100+ FIVE STAR Reviews

William Goodall Spy Ninja

10 August 2023

I have just completed Gillian’s 4 week course for weight management - having hit a difficult time and seeing my weight rise dramatically. She has helped me reconnect with myself and find inner peace, alongside supporting a change to a healthy and sustainable lifestyle. She is worth every penny and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is considering her services.

I had 3 sessions with Gillian and I can honestly say that I have never felt as relaxed and stress-free as I do now. Honestly it was like a mystical re-wiring of my thought processes, and where there was anxiety there is now peace, and where there was self-doubt there is now confidence. I can't recommend her enough. Truly transformative, and I will be forever grateful for her guidance and inspiration.

I suffered from anxiety and panic attacks since my husbands death in 2019 . Having tried numerous treatments on the NHS with no success I decided to try private hypnotherapy. I found Gillian and I am glad I did. My life has changed and I feel great since my treatments with Gillian. She is a professional . She is the best. I thank her from the bottom of my heart for what she has done for me. 5*

I had 4 hypnotherapy sessions with Gillian a few months ago, and can honestly say the experience has been completely life-changing. There was so much holding me back in my recovery from Long COVID, part of which was psychologically crippling anger. Gillian’s hypnotherapy has somehow lifted that yoke from my shoulders, and I feel more emotionally light and free than I have in years. Thank you Gillian, from the bottom of my (recovering) heart 🙏

It has been a couple of months since my sessions. Between now and then I can see and feel the positive and constructive change in my life, mindset and relationships. From the moment I met Gillian, she had a safe and comforting energy, paired with a calm and cosy environment for the sessions. Gillian provides sessions that are tailored to you and your preferences. I would recommend Gillian’s hypnotherapy to anyone!!

I have been smoking almost 30 years, and Gillian helped me to quit with her hypsosis therapy. Since the first day it's been really easy. Now, after almost 40 days non smoking, I feel like I haven't need of smoking, either with smokers around, and I feel really proud of myself. I recommend her therapy to everyone who really want to quit and think they can't, or already they have tried another ways to succeed. Thanks a lot Gillian!!

I went to Gillian for help to stop smoking, but I got much much more than that. She has cured my long covid! I’ve been so sick for so long it is a massive relief to feel myself again. Gillian also worked with me through all my worries and frustrations with myself and has given me the tools and the belief I need to achieve sustainable change for the better in my life. Gillian talks directly to your subconscious and together we have been reprogramming mine. Sounds very woowoo but don’t be scared off, Gillian is kind and nonjudgmental and fully trustworthy, I can’t recommend her highly enough. I feel brand new inside and out. Thank you so so much Gillian x

I have just completed Gillian's four week package. I initially contacted Gillian because I felt stuck/frozen in (mid) life, anxious, living in fear and really not knowing who I was any longer. The transformation I have had has gone beyond all my expectations. Gillian is so lovely. I found her to be warm, welcoming, empathetic and professional. She put me at ease even during our initial conversation over the phone. I felt that Gillian really listened to me and used her skills and intuition to help me heal week by week. I am no longer anxious/scared or stressed, I feel much lighter day to day and more grounded and sure of who I am. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gillian! She's amazing.

Five stars, Gillian’s work is quite frankly life changing and I can’t thank her enough. During sessions she makes you feel right at home and is an all round lovely person with an incredible talented in her field. Gillian is highly knowledgeable about the world and physiology of humans, it was an honour to have sessions with her and I will definitely be back! Thank you.

Katie Marx

25 March 2023

Hypnotherapy with Gillian has been an incredible experience and a real investment in myself. Gillian is so in-tune with what is needed and she was able to support me in reframing some parts of myself that were holding me back. I feel more whole, grounded and confident in who I am as a person and I notice how this positively affects the way I show up in the world. Thank you Gillian, you have real gift and your work is magic!

If you need help with life, love and all that follows go to Gillian. I initially contacted Gillian feeling very anxious and a bit out of control. I felt that she really understood what I needed and even after our initial contact (before any sessions) she instilled a sense of calm. After 4 sessions I definitely felt stronger and more confident in my decisions, with lots of tips going forward. Thank you Gillian.

Fiona MacRae

Gillian is a gift and a joy. She is well informed and highly intuitive and delivers her therapy with energy and enthusiasm. I have had hypnotherapy before with not great results but with Gillian my mindset shifted from day 1. I cannot praise her enough. The transformation. has been wonderful

Emma Robinson

6 March 2023

I found Gillian after a friend recommended her to me. I did a block of 4 sessions with Gillian with one additional session afterwards. I have previously had anxiety at different stages in my life, can easily over worry but I came to Gillian when I felt it was particularly at its worst. I had previously tried various types of therapy (CBT, CBT hypnotherapy, person centred, general counselling, body talk) so I’ll be honest I wasn’t sure what to expect. Gillian made me feel at ease and was able to understand and knowingly guide me with a particular focus area on each session. Gillian helped me move the the high intensity anxiety feelings to a more manageable chunk and eventually over the number of weeks they were no longer there. Gillian also gave me some other practical tools which I found helpful to take away and do on my own. Gillian is without a doubt meant to be in this career and I can’t thank her enough.

28 January 2023

Was recommended Gillian by someone else who had had a very positive experience with her as I was extremely anxious about my upcoming driving test and had failed previously due to excessive nerves. During the treatment Gillian was so lovely and made me so comfortable, and afterwards I felt so much lighter and ready to take on the test. Pleased to say, I passed and would highly recommend Gillian to absolutely anyone who is needing that extra bit of help to overcome or achieve something. Thanks Gillian :)

I don’t usually post reviews, but this was a lot of money to be wasted… I am giving the hypnotherapy a 1 star as it did not work for me. Gillian is such a beautiful person who no doubt is extremely good at her profession as a therapist. I don’t think hypnotherapy as such… I went here to stop vaping. I have been vaping for 12 years next month. I read such great reviews and thought I’d give it a try… I didn’t know what to expect with being hypnotised. Was it a feeling of under a spell if you like? I had only watched hypnosis on tv. I did not get hypnotised on both occasions I had my sessions. I don’t know if gillian believes she can hypnotise or is it really about searching your inner subconscious? Well definitely not hypnotised nor really reached my subconscious mind. I did feel obviously really relaxed and and at ease as gillian listens and guides you. Also great advice and knowledge about anything I had to say. I did though cut down that week to 4 vapes instead of 7 due to being so aware that I smoke it far too much, but last week was back to what I vaped before. Really disappointing. The follow up after my second session was a brief text on how did you get on?, to which I replied I am back to my normal amount of vaping and the reply I got was ‘sorry to hear that’. I did find this upsetting as I expected a little more of something from her. It was 300 pounds which is a lot of money. I know when you spread the cost of vaping to what you pay for sessions is extremely low, but if it doesn’t work then by god it’s a lot of money. My advice to people to stop this Disgusting habit is to seek help from the nhs which is free who have similar sessions. I have now joined and already feel benefits more than this nonsense hypnosis. I think would be a great income 2 people per day would set me up for life pretending to hypnotise. I really couldn’t t afford it and paid off my credit card. I believed with the reviews this would be achieved. So sad. Sorry Gillian. I have just received your exact response from copy and pasting. You sent me this via text at 9ish this morning. You did tell me on the 1 st call you never had a failed client hence why I was so eager. Also the good will gesture was not personal it was a Christmas gesture to All clients. I did thank you in the text after half past 9 this morning, but felt there was no more I think you could do. I do appreciate you offering. I think with 2 failed attempts plus an exercise when I am at home has also failed I don’t see any point, but again thank you. Take care

I would thoroughly recommend Gillian! She is extremely professional, skilled, knowledgeable and empathetic. This has been a very positive and empowering experience.

Jackie Anderson

I've recently finished 4 sessions of hypnotherapy with Gillian to help tackle imposter syndrome and lack of self believe after a recent change in job. Gillian was fantastic, a true professional in her field who has deep intuition and a real knack for reading my mind! I already feel much more confident, empowered and ready to take on my new role with gusto. A life changing experience, thank you so much Gillian.

Recently had four sessions with Gillian and she instantly puts you at ease from even the initial phone call. I have benefited so much from those sessions and feel my life has not just stabilised but feels enhanced. I would recommend Gillian and I tjank you again Gillian for all you have done.

Suzy Rowe

15 August 2022

I immediately felt comfortable and safe with Gillian and benefitted massively from my hypnotherapy sessions with her. Circumstances in my life had knocked my confidence profoundly and I had been feeling quite negative for some time. However, by the end of my sessions, I felt a huge burden had been lifted and felt so much lighter and at peace. The shift was really quite remarkable. I can't recommend Gillian highly enough and really miss my sessions with her! She exudes warmth, is very empathetic and skilled at what she does. Thank you Gillian!

I absolutely loved my sessions with Gillian, so much so I have signed up for another 4. She has helped me feel calm, positive, focused and grounded. I can't recommend her highly enough. If you are thinking of trying hypnotherapy, then use Gillian as you won't be disappointed. She is a master of her trade. 😊 Thank you Gillian xxxxx

I have done four sessions with Gillian. I felt very safe and listened to by Gillian. We had a good connection and her Intuitive way let us work deeper in my sessions. Seeing Gillian has been valuable for me.

Angela Henderson

10 June 2022

I saw Gillian for 4 sessions because I was binge eating sugary foods like chocolate, ice cream, cakes etc. After the very first session, I found for the first time in my life that I just didn't fancy all those things any more, so much so that I cut my grandson's birthday cake up and had no inclination to eat any. This for a woman who always looked at the dessert menu before the main course! In addition to this life-changing result, Gillian has guided me in ways to improve my lifestyle and general health and I feel equipped going forward to continue improving my physical and mental health and wellbeing. Many thanks Gillian. You're a star.

Lena

15 May 2022

Gillian has been amazing throught the whole process. She made me believe in myself and my potential which eventually has found the surface which I confidently use privately and professionally. My low self worth caused choosing partners which weren't the life partners and lack of confidence. This has now changed, I am confident, truly happy within myself, I recognise my qualities and this helps me professionally. I am deeply grateful for all the time Gillian has given me! She has definitely made permanent positive changes! Thank you Gillian!

I went to see Gillian for anger issues, as was difficult to remain clam in situations, this was from a young primary school age up till now, and was having an impact on family life even ruining Christmas. With the Hypnotherapy things changed to be able to see the bigger picture and help to just accept what is happening and just shrug it off and not react angrily. Each session I looked forward to as after each I came out feeling much better about myself and through that week felt noticeably calmer in situations which I would have been angry in. Gillian is such a lovely person, talking to her was very easy and the sense to calm and reassurance was wonderful. I would highly recommend as I feel so so much calmer after my sessions with Gillian.

I found my way to Gillian quite by chance, when I found myself a little lost and struggling to regroup. Gillian instinctively knew how to get to the root of my problems and set about rewiring my thinking and approach to various issues and situations I was facing. After several enlightening sessions I feel calmer, more grounded and with clarity of thought restored. Thank you for reawakening my inner boss woman, I lost her for a while! 🦸🏼‍♀️

My experience with Gillian has been truly amazing. I booked 4 sessions in a block and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. I had never tried hypnotherapy before and was pleasantly surprised at how much it has helped me with my issues. Gillian is 100% professional and has you feeling relaxed as soon as you enter the room. I would highly recommend Gillian and will definitely book more sessions in the future. Truly brilliant and lovely human.

Working with Gillian was an absolute joy. I found my sessions to be super helpful, insightful and valuable from the very first appointment. I had extremely positive outcomes and am equipped with techniques to keep the work going. Would highly recommend.

I have now had 2 hypnotherapy sessions with Gillian, one during lockdown remotely and today face to face.Both experiences have been amazing, Gillian has such a calming manner, listens to you and understands the stresses that bring peoole to her. She is professional, friendly and excellent at what she does. If you are looking for a recommendation, then I give her 5 stars, check out her website, Facebook etc you won't regret it.

Tracy Tait

I came to Gillian because I had gained 1and a half stone during the 2nd lockdown. I had tried for months but couldn’t break my bad habits. I felt heavy and down that I couldn’t fit into any of my clothes. After 6 weeks of seeing Gillian I’ve lost a stone and 3 inches on my waist. I am in control of my eating and don’t eat after 7pm in the evening. She also help me put a toxic relationship that was holding me back behind me. During lockdown I had got into the habit of weekday dinking in the evening which I have reduced and now keep it to weekends. Gillian is completely gifted and has not got me back to my old self but help me step into the new me.

26 August 2021

I went to see Gillian to discuss food relationship issues I had for many years and not really knowing what a hypnotherapist could do. We had an initial phone discussion to understand a bit better my issue and it turned out it was the relationship with myself we needed to repair. I've never been to a hypnotherapy so I didn't know what to expect and was quite nervous during my 1st appointment. I shared this with Gillian and she was very understanding and reassuring. While we work on my issue and relationship with food, I felt more and more comfortable and definitely experienced shift as the weeks went on ! It's great to see the real application in your everyday life. Also, Gillian is here to help and not to judge and I knew that from the 1st time I met her. I had 4 appointments throughout August and at the end of the 4th, I'm feeling complete and have a more conscious, healthy and tolerant relationship with food (and myself !) Very grateful for the work Gillian is doing, her positive aura and energy. These 4 appointments are truly a "massage for the mind" like she says ! Life won't be always peaceful but I know where I can find it if I need some ! Thanks Gillian !!

Gillian is gifted and talented and zoned into my needs immediately. She also has a lovely manner which is very soothing. I found my sessions with her to provide total relaxation but it was the after effects that I found the most incredible. I immediately felt a release of past self sabotaging behaviour and felt powerful and in control of my life. I can't recommend Gillian highly enough.

Tabassum Assia Jamil

20 August 2021

I came to Gillian 3 years ago about my anger managment and patience level issues and how it was effecting my relationship. I have had several counselling session and nothing honestly helped me when I was in the situation, I never would remember all the different techniques that I was taught but hand on heart I felt like a changed person after my second session with Gillian. I really enjoy and look forward to my sessions with her and I feel so positive and happy after my sessions. Since then Gillian has helped me and alot of my friends and family members with quit smoking, anxiety and weight managment issues. I can’t explain in words how happy I am with this version of myself and its all down to Gillian’s efforts. She is such a lovely, warm hearted person who understands you and genuinely wants to help you.

I’d recommend Gillian to anyone who is looking for support and guidance from a hypnotherapist. While she is Edinburgh-based she does also run client sessions via zoom which I found were just as effective during lockdown. I’ve been working with Gillian over several months and it’s been such a positive and rewarding experience. Gillian is such a warm person, highly engaging and very in tune with her clients. She brings a number of different complimentary disciplines to her sessions to help her clients. When I first met with Gillian I was looking for support in a particular area; however after several sessions Gillian had guided me to understand the underlying issues that I really needed to address - a real lightbulb moment for me! Gillian has given me the tools to make important positive changes and I look forward to working with her as I continue on my personal journey.

JOdi McGinty

8 May 2021

I have just finished 4 sessions with the wonderful Gillian. Someone in my family recommended that I got in touch with Gillian to help me overcome a personal challenge that had caused me issues for years. I was amazed with the impact the hypnotherapy sessions had in such a short space of time. I felt positive and confident after each one which helped in both my personal and professional life. Gillian was so lovely to work with and made me feel comfortable. Thank you so much Gillian!

Gillian is very inspiring, knowledgeable and always goes the extra mile. I've loved working with her and have seen my life completing change with her help with hypnotherapy for the past 4 weeks, with tools to help me achieve success. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to family and friends. Thank you very much, you are an Angel.

Gayle Allsop

30 March 2021

Thank you, Gillian! I have just completed a 4 week hypnotherapy and weight loss session which has transformed my attitude towards food within this short time period . Gillian has helped me to understand more about why I was making the choices I used to and set new boundaries, have self care/love, balance and a positive outlook relating to food but most importantly towards myself! I was feeling frustrated and full of anxiety for a long period of time which was having a negative impact on many aspects of my life. Since meeting Gillian and undergoing the hypnotherapy I have shed 9lbs in just over 3 weeks ( without dieting), given up on my addiction to come zero ( I have not had any which is a miracle! ) and most importantly, I no longer crave processed , fatty food and alcohol. Gillian has taught me to enjoy food and alcohol in moderation and made it easy for me to make positive choices. I no longer eat as a result of my emotions and have found my love for cooking and fitness again! I am excited to start the 21 day weight loss challenge and will continue to implement all the positives I have gained from these sessions. I highly recommend and hope anyone who is struggling and needs that littlw help up can find that in Gillian. I did!

Debbie Byers

23 March 2021

Can't thank Gillian enough for such a transformative and amazing experience. I had 4 sessions to tackle extreme anxiety and stress, handling the negative inner critic and imposter syndrome. Gillian's techniques are incredibly intuitive and insightful. The difference has been immediate. She has removed my parameters of self doubt and I am enjoying a new found confidence. She brought a new perspective and I feel liberated. Recommend highly.

Lynda Webb

I recently undertook 4 sessions with Gillian which I really enjoyed. These sessions have helped me gain a better understanding and insight of my eating habits consequently improving my overall health and well being. The sessions were relaxing and enjoyable and I would certainly recommend Gillian who was friendly, helpful and professional. Thank you.

I feel truly blessed to have been guided to Gillian, I feel she has touched my soul. I can't remember the last time I was looking forward to anything but she has given me my power back! Decisions were so hard before but now things feel right and I'm looking forward to the future. I can't recommend her highly enough. A lovely and inspiring lady 💖

Norman Clark

22 February 2021

Sleep dramatically improved. Half a stone in 3 weeks without feeling that you were even dieting. Big change in my self, language towards myself now more positive. More energy Eating healthily, 3 meals a day Portion sizes have became balanced. Stopped eating in the evening Feeling more positive & optimistic about myself, my home life, work life. Aversions to chocolate, biscuits, cake, crisps, fried food etc. We worked very successfully online, Gillian understood me more than I have, I never thought I could change my attitude towards eating. I have spent over 20 years trying do it myself, Gillian has helped me look at myself differently and really helped me to understand how my thinking works. I have booked booster sessions and feel like a different person, would highly recommend Gillian, its no coincidence she has a 5 strar rating, Lifesaver !!!

Jan Oraw

15 January 2021

I heard about Gillian’s excellent work from my friend and contacted her to ask for her help. Gillian called me back the same day and I knew straight away that I had done the right thing by taking this step to help myself. After our call I felt better already and was looking forward to my hypnotherapy session. I had this the same week and wasn’t sure what to expect. There was an element of apprehension and fear to be honest but as soon as Gillian started to talk to me, these feelings left me and I felt calm and reassured. I enjoyed the whole experience and was aware of everything Gillian was saying to me. I learned things about myself and now feel able to move forward in such a positive way. I’m so grateful and proud of myself for taking this step. I have no hesitation in recommending Gillian’s hypnotherapy session to anyone who needs the advice and appropriate help and guidance like I did. Go for it! I’m glad I did!
