'It was a unique, very personal experience. I am normally a sceptic about these things but it was definitely worth it.'

Alison Wytchwood, Yorkshire Evening Press, July 21, 2007

'Another fab week, just returned from a competition with a first! It has just transformed my life. Thank you so very much.'

Heather Wilkinson, show jumper, Lancashire.

'I have not touched a cigarette since I saw you, and it feels so good to be free of them. I truly believe that I look better, and feel so much fitter. I have really felt a huge difference in that respect.

Thanks so much for what you have done for me.'

Geraldine Williams, York

'Stopping smoking with Sophie's help was so easy compared to all the other ways I'd tried. From the day of the hypnotherapy session, I knew that I no longer wanted to smoke.'

Trevor Holmes, Wakefield

'Thank you for all your help and support. For someone who on that first day believed it would never work, it has been one of the best decisions of my life... What you have given me is the tools to use when things seem to be getting on top of me. I still use the self hypnosis nearly every day.'

David Nevison, York

'I sometimes struggled to just 'sit down and do it' with some aspects of my work. After my first session with Sophie, we managed to get straight to the cause and I could feel the benefits almost instantly!'

David Lawrie, music producer, York

'We've got rid of a major stumbling block, so thank you very much! I'm really, really enjoying it, and on Sunday, my final set I realised as we came back to the dock, I'd just been totally in the zone, which is exactly, above all, what I wanted to achieve.'

Paul Marshall, water skier, York.
