Client testimonials

Everyone deserves to be happy, self confident and successful. I have helped many people change their lives for the better and I can do the same for you. Here are testimonials from just some of the people I have helped to change their life.

  • It worked brilliantly and I passed!

    Had my 4th driving test coming up and I didn't want to fail again so gave hypnotherapy a try to help with anxiety and confidence. I passed with one minor error!

  • Highly recommend!

    I contacted Bridget for help with my emotional eating habits which were spiralling out of control and making me feel very unhappy. I had put on a little weight but was more concerned of how I saw myself.

    After reading up on hypnosis I thought I would give it a try. Bridget made me feel very comfortable. We talked a great deal about my habits and how hypnosis works and I felt ready to try.

    I had no idea what to expect after the first session but I felt really relaxed with Bridget and afterwards she was there for support. It’s surreal what you think when you are in hypnosis, I could see myself as me and how I wanted to get back to who I am. Seeing that for the first time in a long time felt really good. It’s like I had lost myself for a while.. and that was the trigger for me.

    Listening to the hypnosis has really helped me to relax and take a moment for myself.. to stop and just think for a second. We all have busy lives and can get caught up in the day to day world, not giving ourselves much time. This has helped calm me down and take my time, which in turn has helped with my eating habits.

    Hypnosis really worked for me, not only for resetting my thoughts of food and being more conscious of what I put into my mouth but also it helped me relax, allowing time for my own thoughts. I am so much happier and would recommend it to anyone. Bridget has been a huge support and is fantastic at what she does! I will definitely be keeping it up.

    Thank you so much Bridget.

  • It’s amazing this programme. You can eat what you want just in small portions.

    I’ve been going to see Bridget since January as I was piling weight on, eating too much and doing no exercise at all. I’ve gone from a size 14 being too tight to a comfortable size 12 without cheating or craving or giving up. It’s a life change not a diet. Thank you so much Bridget Freer Hypnotherapy.

    Sue, 2024

  • A spectacular success! Within a couple of weeks of my hypnotherapy sessions with you there was a dramatic change in my life.

    The violent daily episodes of involuntary muscle movement which had affected me every evening for many years, stopped. I was very cautiously optimistic that the change was permanent as it seemed too good to be true. I continue to listen to the audio track and apart from occasional mild bouts of involuntary movements and discomfort, the change has continued.

  • I came to see Bridget before a holiday to Kuala Lumpur - petrified of heights.

    I’ve done the Petronas Towers today and was soooo much better !! I even walked along the Skywalk 26 floors up. I’m so pleased with myself and even my husband noticed how calm I was. I wouldn’t have done the Skywalk beforehand at all! Thank you so much!

    Lisa, 2024

  • I didn’t have single worry or panic on any of the flights. I cannot thank you enough.

    Got back from the Philippines yesterday and just wanted to say thank you for everything. We had 6 flights in total over 2 weeks away and it was amazing.

    Rob, 2024

  • I honestly don’t know how it works but that doesn’t matter.  I have found everything super easy to follow and I’ve not snacked once in 3 months. I have lost over 3 stone and my mobility is so much better. Every time I’ve dieted in the past I have just tried to hang on. This is so different. I have 3 trips booked next year and I now look forward to those knowing I will be smaller and more mobile.

    I’ve been on a diet off and on for 30 years.  I have always been ok with how I was. Then lockdown and working from home happened.  My mobility decreased and I gained weight without even noticing. This year I came home from a trip to Center Parcs having had a miserable time and inflicting that on my family. I knew I had to do something new and found Bridget.  After my consultation I came out feeling so hopeful. She was positive and encouraging.  Bridget explained how she could help me and what my part was.  It’s so relaxing and I came out of every session feeling great. In my first consult Bridget told me my life would change massively and I wondered if it really would. Words cannot express how grateful I am to Bridget for changing my life and my future. I would recommend her to anyone.

    Jane, 2023

  • I contacted Bridget as I had such an intensive fear of medical procedures relating to fertility treatment, purely because of how intrusive the process is.

    Bridget was accommodating and understood the urgency and got me in so quickly. First contact made Monday, consultation on Tuesday, and hypnotherapy session on Thursday. The medical procedure I was terrified for took place on Friday. Bridget helped me finally face my fear rather than running away from it. I am so grateful for the help I received at such short notice. Bridget is professional, understanding, and compassionate. I know you can’t waive a magic wand when it comes to fears and phobias, but what I do know is that I managed to get through the procedure with no complications, and I’m not scared anymore for future procedures. Thank you Bridget, really grateful for your help and support. 

    Rachel, 2023

  • I came to see Bridget after booking a long haul holiday to Singapore with my husband because I have a fear of flying. Bridget has a very warm & calming personality so put me at ease straight away. Her session made a huge difference and I actually found myself really looking forward to the holiday.

    Rather than just becoming anxious and nervous about the flight, spoiling the build up to the holiday, I was calm leading up to it and didn’t feel at all nervous when I got on the plane.

    So many thanks Bridget for helping me overcome my fear of flying.

    Lindsey, 2023

  • When I first contacted Bridget two months ago I had no confidence and was struggling with my weight and fitness. Now I feel fantastic and love the fact my weight has gone down and I'm able to exercise more. Thanks for all your help Bridget.

    Joanne, 2023

  • I came to see you in January this year for help to stop smoking. I wanted to tell you that I am still not smoking, no cigarettes since then. Between us we did a miracle! So Well Done!

    Sarah, 2023

  • I look at food so differently now. My mindset has completely changed, I find that I no longer think about food all of the time, I easily get by on much smaller portions. It is a brilliant program, with a lovely lady, and so easy if you follow it properly. If you are thinking about, then DO IT! Thank you Bridget.

    Gill, 2023

  • At first I was pessimistic. I’d tried lots of different diets only to put the weight back on. I was desperate and thought I’d give this a try.

    It’s hard to explain how it works, all I know is it’s changed my mindset. I now really enjoy the meals I eat and my cravings between meals have stopped. I eat what I fancy and am losing weight.

    I now have a completely different approach to food. It’s no longer ruling my life. I feel satisfied and for some reason sleep a lot better. Thank you Bridget.

    Tracey, 2023

  • Before meeting Bridget, I had tried every ‘diet’ under the sun, constantly restricting my food and binging as a consequence. My weight was out of control and I felt stuck, constantly failing and putting more weight on each time. I was very pessimistic about the results as I had tried everything else.

    But this was so different, it’s not a diet at all, it’s so easy to do and I don’t feel like my day revolves around food and hunger anymore. I am consuming much smaller amounts of food without feeling restricted.

    I have lost nearly a stone but despite the weight loss, the difference in my confidence and self-esteem is huge. I am so glad I found Bridget and can’t wait to see how much more weight I can lose.

    Amy, 2023

  • I came to you at the beginning of the year for hypnotherapy treatment. I used the audio that you prepared for me daily and started to feel more relaxed and confident about my impending surgery.

    I had my surgery carried out on 4th May and the hypnotherapy certainly gave me the confidence to feel quite relaxed about the whole procedure and it didn’t cause me any undue stress or anxiety issues.

    Hopefully this is something I can now put behind me but I just wanted to thank you for your help and encouragement. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone else or, indeed, use your services again for other circumstances.

    Robin, 2023

  • Before I started with Bridget I had tried every diet going with no success. I was the heaviest I had ever been and was very down about it.

    From my first session with Bridget, my mindset changed. I never realised how much my mind influenced my thinking on food.

    This is a total mind change for the positive! 7 weeks in I am feeling amazing – the weight is coming off the inches are going down and my fitness is a million times better.

    I am now looking forward to the future and a happy healthy life!

    Jane, 2023

  • Bridget has helped me with how to think clearly about my claustrophobia and how to overcome negative feelings that go along with it. I now feel calmer, more relaxed and more positive about situations which once filled me with dread. And thanks to her I got through my holiday flights panic free! Thank you Bridget!

    Laura, 2023

  • Started this journey about my weight and drinking. Bridget put my mind at ease straight away. Starting to get more confident and feel so much energy. Unbelievable.

    Dawn, 2023

  • My hypnotherapy was everything I hoped it would have been! I had my first session with Bridget in January to help manage my claustrophobia after many years of struggling.

    I have just returned from New York and have been in many lifts in the skyscraper buildings and on the underground trains – both of which I would have totally avoided in the past due to such intense feelings of panic and anxiety! I felt calm and relaxed throughout my whole trip and this was honestly such a huge achievement for me and could not have done this without the help of Bridget!

    This therapy has really changed my life, my only regret is not doing this sooner!

    Elise, 2023

  • I decided to contact Bridget as I was suffering with anxiety and sleep issues. From the first meeting I knew I can trust her and I opened myself, told her about my problems and I knew she’ll be able to help me.

    Bridget is a lovely person and very professional-you just know she knows what she’s doing. I’m listening to audio she recorded for me every day before I go to bed. It’s been only 3 weeks and I changed drastically. I’m not that miserable stressed and sad person anymore. It doesn’t take me so long to fall asleep anymore. I’m calm, relaxed and so happy. I’m dancing, singing and smiling for no reason! Things that used to bother me before don’t mean anything to me today.

    I will continue working on myself, now I know anything is possible and I can’t thank Bridget enough for what she’s done for me. So if you think about getting in touch with her, don’t think about it-just do it!

    Klaudia, 2023

  • My therapy was everything I was hoping for and more. Bridget listened to the things I was saying and targeted exactly the areas I wanted to focus on, and I feel that the whole process has been hugely beneficial. Bridget’s therapy is a fantastic tool either as an alternative or alongside other treatments, and I will have no problem in recommending her.

    Dan, 2023

  • Best investment!! I found my best friend (in me). It feels amazing. Dreams are coming true, one by one. Thank You!

    KG, 2022

  • Just a quick update. I came to see you over a year ago re panic attacks when driving and flying by plane. Last Tuesday I drove from Hull to Manchester alone and then flew out to Spain and back by myself without any issues. In fact, I thoroughly enjoyed the flight. Unbelievable! Thank you for opening up my world!

    Katherine, 2022

  • Bridget’s services were professional, effective and empowering. I wasn’t sure I’d find the time to fit in the daily audio recordings but in fact loved giving this time to myself. It was really transformative putting myself first in this way. I feel more confident and energised and excited for the next chapter of my life! Thank you again Bridget.

    Rebecca, 2022

  • I just want to say thank you so much I’ve tried for over 15 years to stop smoking cannabis and this is now week 5 I’m heading into of being drug free! You have made a massive difference to my life and I can’t thank you or recommend you enough! Thank you again.

    Sam, 2022

  • I am a 68 year old Hull lady who over the last 40 years has battled with losing weight and self esteem.

    On 17th June 2022 I had my first hypnotherapy session with Bridget Freer and cannot thank her or praise her enough. After 5 weeks I am proud to say I have lost 1st 1lb – 2 inches off my bust, 2 inches off my waist and 4 inches off my hips – and I feel so much more confident.

    I can thoroughly recommend Bridget’s therapy.

    Sue, 2022

  • As a 60 year old man and having tried – or having felt I’ve tried every diet on the planet.

    I felt that Bridget was my ‘last chance saloon’ I’ve never experienced hypnotherapy before so this was all new to me. My first session I felt a little nervous but was soon put at ease. Bridget’s sessions have worked wonders – having lost 1st 9lb in 7 weeks and never once been hungry like other diets. I feel a lot more confident and at ease with my weight. The response from my friends with my weight loss has been amazing too! Anyone that is undecided – give it a go it works. I thoroughly recommend Bridget!

    Stephen, 2022

  • Feeling very low with my weight. I contacted Bridget. She has really transformed my thinking. Only 7 weeks later 1st 6lb loss which is fantastic. Bridget’s calm and informative sessions have been an inspiration to me. Thank you Bridget!

    Julie, 2022

  • Went to see Bridget as I wanted to give up smoking. Well it has been 5 months now with no smoking and no cravings either. I can honestly recommend Bridget as she explains every bit of the process and makes you feel relaxed and safe. A big thank you again Bridget. If you struggle to motivate yourself and are unhappy with your weight loss progress, then Bridget is highly recommended!

    Jeanie, 2022

  • I came to my first session with Bridget feeling unhappy about how I looked I felt unmotivated and was having a really hard time sticking to a diet or routine for weight loss. I came into this feeling optimistic, but never expected to feel as energised and driven as I do now!

    Before, I would break from my eating regime easily and regularly, and find any excuse to miss the gym and working out… now I’m enjoying the time and effort I take to improve myself and my health thanks to the mindset that Bridget’s sessions have helped me be in.

    For what you get out of this, it is 100% worth it and it’s amazing how little you actually have to give up to succeed. Now I am feeling well on my way to being the best version of myself possible.

    If you struggle to motivate yourself and are unhappy with your weight loss progress, then Bridget is highly recommended!

    Henry, 2022

  • I found myself in a dark place with my weight, munching through endless amounts of good and bad foods. Energy levels were low, emotions high and stress levels through the roof.

    All that changed in April 2022 when I read an article in our local village magazine about the virtual gastric band. Intrigued I read further and this was my turning point .

    I contacted Bridget and she made me feel so relaxed and positive from the first phone call to my first visit. It was the first time that I felt that I could talk about my weight problem without being judged . My journey begun, meeting Bridget, using the tools given by her, has turned that dark place into a very bright happy place.

    My confidence, self esteem and eating habits have certainly changed and in June 2020 I am 1 1/2 stone lighter!

    Ann, 2022

  • After struggling with my weight through lockdown and trying a number of different ways to lose weight and failing I started to feel very low about my appearance.

    At this point I made contact with Bridget who was friendly and professional from the get go! Bridget discussed the hypnotherapy process with me in depth and we started working together soon after.

    I had never done anything like this before so it was all new to me but Bridget offered a wealth of knowledge about hypnotherapy and was genuinely excited and happy for me to be seeing results.

    This isn’t any kind of fad diet – it’s a complete lifestyle change and I’m feeling so much more confident already.

    I’m super excited to continue my hypnotherapy journey and I can’t thank Bridget enough for her support throughout this!

    Aimee, 2022

  • My session to combat my fear of water has been amazing – even my swimming instructor commented on the difference. I swam 6 widths of the pool last night unaided. It’s changed my life going forward. I can’t thank you enough!

    Jean, 2021

  • just wanted to let you know that there was just a spider in my bath and not only did I not panic or cry, I grabbed a shower gel bottle, picked it up, took it to the window and put it outside!

    It all happened really quickly and I couldn’t quite believe I did it! I didn’t even need to think about it too much. Never thought I’d ever be able to do that at all. It’s incredible. I did a little dance around the bathroom to celebrate haha! Thank you so so much.

    Hayley, 2020

  • It’s been 15 months since I came to see you for my Virtual Gastric Band … just wanted to let you know that I have had the best summer ever.

    I was able to wear to what I wanted to wear, rather than only being able to wear what fits or what covers up the bits I didn’t like. I even wore shorts this year which is something my I haven’t done since being an adult!

    I’m happy to say that weight is no longer something I obsess about. At one time I was weighing myself half a dozen times a day, every day and then having the highs and lows of elation at losing a pound to the disappointment of regaining it. What a waste of a life!

    I don’t think I have lost anymore weight since I last saw you (got rid of the scales a year ago and haven’t looked back) but I know I could if I wanted to. I am happy with the size I am and being able to feel good in my clothes is a life changer.

    Katie, 2020

  • Just letting you know how well I am doing. I haven’t bought alcohol or had a drink on my own since starting this. I have even started to drink green tea and have bought a smoothie maker. Found myself drinking water on an evening.

    I’ve had 2 occasions where I have been with friends. I drank a couple bottles of Budweiser and then asked for a cup of tea!

    I feel amazing and alert. I definitely do not hold alcohol important in my life anymore. I can’t believe that I don’t even think about it! I never thought this day would come. I am still listening to your audio daily.

    Yes please let people know that they also can gain back control of their lives with your help.

    Rebecca, 2020

  • I was spending a lot of money on gambling sites – money I couldn’t afford to lose. I knew it was way out of control but I just couldn’t stop. Even the thought that I was putting everything I cared about at risk wasn’t enough to make me stop.

    Thankfully everything changed when I met Bridget. She helped me conquer my addiction once and for all, get me back on track and focused on the important things in life.

    I’m now 6 months on and I’ve never looked back. I can’t recommend Bridget enough. She’s changed everything and given me back my life.

    Martin, 2020

  • I was suffering very badly from anxiety when I saw Bridget. Today I’ve been to my GP for a blood test and she was amazed at the change in me. I was smiling and even laughing! The difference is incredible. I’ve still got a way to go but I’m not suffering every day. There is light at the end of the tunnel and I’m looking forward to the future.

    Eddy, 2019

  • I’ve been overweight for years! and finally made the best decision of my life in June 2017 when I booked an appointment with Bridget Freer. Bridget, a clinical hypnotherapist, hypnotised me into thinking I had a gastric band fitted (virtual gastric band).

    It was clearly explained that it wasn’t a diet, could eat what I wanted but in small portions. I still ate chocolate and takeaways etc but because they weren’t ‘banned’ I didn’t yearn for them any more.

    I lost 5 stone in 6 months (including Xmas period). My virtual gastric band has changed my life completely unlike the many failed diets and weight loss clubs I’ve tried. No food regimes, salads and weekly meal preparations which allowed me to continue my normal lifestyle whilst losing weight at the same time. It’s the easiest 5 stone I’ve ever lost and recommend it to anyone and everyone wanting to change their life.

    Anita, 2019

  • I first visited Bridget in May 2017 feeling rock bottom over my weight and fitness. My weight increased after I lost my eldest son suddenly in October 2014. I turned to food for comfort and felt out of control.

    I had tried slimming clubs and although the first time round I was successful I found that as soon as I stopped going my weight went back on and more! I became obsessed with food and thought about what I was going to eat next all the time. However since I had my sessions with Bridget I feel much more in control and am no longer turning to food for comfort. I also became more motivated and re-joined Zumba classes and started running for the first time in my life. I would like to thank Bridget for all the support. I listen to her CD daily – it’s just part of my everyday routine now and I intend to see her maybe two or three times a year.

    Janet, 2018

  • Just a short message to say thank you. I was petrified of flying before and dreaded going away. This time I had a lovely holiday without any stress or anxiety.

    Vicky, 2017

  • I’ve been frightened of flying for as long as I can remember but this time I loved the flight. I can’t wait to go again. Thank you so much. You have changed my life!

    Yvonne, 2017

  • Back from holiday and had a fantastic time! Thanks to you helping me out with my fear of heights and anxiety of flying I was able to relax and overcome my fears.

    For the first time ever I was able to stand up and move about the plane and even use the bathroom. Something in over 100 flights I have never been able to do. I am also no longer afraid of heights and keep showing off to my family and friends how daring I’ve become. Think they’re getting fed up of me now! This is all thanks to you! I shall certainly recommend you to everyone and I am proof that hypnotherapy really works!

    June, 2017

  • Before I came to see you I had a very negative relationship with food, I would eat without thinking and not know when to stop, it was like I was on a personal path of destruction.

    Since my sessions with you and with the help of the techniques you advised in between and after sessions I now feel that I am in control of food instead of food being in control of me. I can walk out of a shop without feeling like I need to by a chocolate bar or a packet of crisps. For that alone I would like to thank you, I have changed to a positive path now and look forward to a healthier future.

    Samantha, 2017

  • After 15 years of trying every diet under the sun and repeatedly losing, gaining weight, feeling bad, good, bad, I went to Bridget after a friend recommended her.

    After 7 weeks I have so far lost 29lbs and have not once felt restricted or ‘bad’ or even as though I am on a diet. This is because I’m not. I just think differently, act differently and thanks to Bridget have a completely new attitude towards food. I can not thank her enough and am one very happy customer.
