When Andrew Bennett first told me about the healing potential of hypnotherapy, I was skeptical. As someone who has explored various methods for self-improvement and emotional healing, I was unsure of his claim that he could help me solve my problems with one or two sessions. I have sought help through support groups, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), spiritual practice, and rigorous self-discipline. While these methods have aided me in one way or another, I have never experienced a method as effective as the one that Andrew practices.
For most my life, I have experienced a level of depression and anxiety that ranges from general discomfort, to panic attacks and fight or flight responses. These symptoms are rooted in past trauma. Though I had a thorough knowledge and understanding of the way that my past was still affecting the way that I respond to life, I felt hopeless. In the months leading up to my first session with Andrew, I had begun to have severe and disproportionate responses to daily occurrences. Anytime a person raised their voice at me, I flew into panic and despair. When a firework came to close to me on the 4th of July, I was sent into a fit of rage. I used every resource at my disposal to work on this problem, and nothing seemed to help. Though I found temporary relief through CBT, and a diagnosis of PTSD like symptoms, similar episodes continued to occur.
After the first hypnotherapy session that I had with Andrew, I experienced immediate results. Since that day, I have not experienced any symptoms of PTSD. Thanks to Andrew’s compassion, dedication and expertise I have moved beyond a simple understanding of my problems. He has shown me a practical and effective way to legitimately heal from them and begin to take responsibility for my life. The first time I reached out to Andrew, he told me one thing that will stick in my mind forever: He insisted that hypnotherapy could change my life in ways that I couldn’t even imagine. It has done just that.
