David Faratian - Cumbria Hypnosis Mindfulness Clinic

I was incredibly sceptical with regards to ‘hypnosis’, it seemed a bit too ‘out there’ and “crazy” and to be honest, utterly bloody ridiculous…laughable almost. Seeking help with David was a last ditch attempt (through the suggestion from a friend) to at least try…again. I have not smoked a single cigarette in 10 weeks (the longest I have EVER lasted)…I stopped after the very first session with David. IMMEDIATELY. This was after numerous failed attempts over the past 8 years to quit, including trial drug therapy (champix) , patches, crutches, vapes and books. The smell of cigarettes does NOT affect me, it doesn’t even make me feel sick, doesn’t make me crave one either. I’m nonchalant. That crave and ‘need’ has GONE, it no longer exists…I can’t explain it. I feel so, so much better. INCREDIBLE what can be unlocked! Thankyou, so very much David.

David provides outstanding care and appreciation of what can be achieved. He shows a level of empathy that is remarkable and I would throughly recommend him to address all requirements for Mindfulness and Hypnotherapy.

Over all our sessions together, David has offered me a range of much needed strategies to help me cope with and control worry, anxiety, lack of sleep and pain and provided me with ongoing techniques to support my mental health and promote my physical well-being. Each session was bespoke to my needs and David tailored treatments flexibly and responsively so that I was receiving the exact support I required at that time. This was so very much appreciated. David’s extensive knowledge of key techniques and his expertise and experience in working with them, enabled him to select appropriate approaches that have been crucial to me maintaining a calm, focused and positive outlook during a very challenging time. I’ve found working with David has provided me not only with successful ways of coping with my current situation but also given me a continued interest in developing the different methods that he used. It has also given me time and space to recognise and realise the importance of maintaining a life-long commitment to prioritising my mental and spiritual health and a desire to do just that. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with David – it has been a privilege and pleasure. I’ve found it a most enlightening and enriching experience and I cannot recommend him highly enough. My most heartfelt thanks, David for all your inspiring work, informative advice and the invaluable support you have given me. I’m truly grateful and look forward to continuing to build on the work we’ve done together in the future.

David has really changed my life around over the last 2 months. My mind was controlling me from being the person who I used to be and who I want to be. I have gone from being unable to leave the house alone to experiencing normal day to day activities again that others take for granted. This has been a huge step for me and I am finally seeing the light at the end of a long dark tunnel. David is approachable and does not judge, we speak about the serious side but we can also have a giggle about things too which makes the whole process easier. He is very supportive in each session whether it's ups or downs and I can truly say that after a long nearly 7 years living with panic disorder and anxiety that contacting David was the best thing I have done. Family and friends have all noticed a huge difference in my attitude and I am much more positive now. Thanks so much David!

I honestly can say that this is one of the best decisions I've made. David is fantastic and really helped me. I'm so much more mentally stronger as well as on a fantastic journey to loose weight. The changes in my everyday are incredible and hard to put into words. It's like the problem I had never was, never even existed. The easiest way to explain is that all my life I've been a grazer, now its like I've never been, its just a non thought, non action. But, this is just one small element, David has helped me in so many ways not just with weight loss. I'm stronger as a whole, I can deal with life's curve balls better. I cannot recommend or speak highly enough of David. Genuinely from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
