Halifax Hypnotherapy Clinic Ltd Reviews 13

After nearly a decade of battling High-Functioning Anxiety and Panic Disorder, I had tried everything—medications, CBT, talking therapies—you name it. Nothing truly worked. Feeling like I had exhausted all options, I took it upon myself to explore alternative treatments. That’s when I was recommended Clinical Hypnotherapy and found John at Halifax Hypnotherapy Clinic.

From the very first session, I knew I had made the right decision. John’s approach is nothing short of transformative. His calm, professional, and deeply intuitive manner made it easy to trust the process. I can honestly say this therapy has saved my life. I’m not just coping anymore—I’m thriving. The anxiety and panic that once ruled my life are no longer present.

We’ve now moved on to working on other areas of personal development, and I’m genuinely excited about the future. If you’re struggling and feel like nothing has worked, please reach out to John. He is a miracle worker.

It’s beyond me how this isn’t available on the NHS. Halifax Hypnotherapy Clinic, and John in particular, deserve all the recognition in the world.

I used the services of Halifax Hypnotherapy as a last resort to give up smoking which I had tried and failed to do several times before, having smoked for 33 years.

Rather than use the term "last resort" perhaps the phrase, "I'll try anything once" would be better, and thank God I did.

The service provided was very professional with John being a calming influence throughout which is helped by his relaxing voice.

I don't understand the techniques involved in the 2 hour session but I do know he went through why I smoke thoroughly making my brain see the bigger picture on the cravings, the habit and so on.

I didn't stop immediately and was frustrated with myself, but a few days later I woke up one morning (the Satuday after), and rather than get up for the morning cig, the brain just kicked in and said "no". It was as though a penny had dropped in my sleep, and I was suddenly aware my body was trying to trick my brain into pumping more noxious poisons into it.

For the first time ever I was now understanding why I smoked, and telling my brain's cravings to sod off was empowering. Despite cigs being all over the house I didn't touch one, and haven't since that moment of Epiphany.

I could write an essay on the journey I've been on since using hypnotherapy and it's all positive. If you have an open mind I suspect this science can improve many people's lives, just as it has mine.

I thoroughly recommend.

I have had three hynotherapy sessions with John, to help me stop drinking. The first session was super helpful, informative and extremely interesting with hynosis.

From that first session, I did not feel the need, or want, to have a drink. I booked a second session for two weeks later. Like the first, I was put at ease, we talked and hynosis followed.

From the first to the second session, I hadn't felt the need for a drink and didn't miss it, at all. I still booked a third session, just to be sure!

I have now been alcohol free for six weeks. Having gone from one bottle of wine each evening to absolutely nothing, for six weeks, makes me proud of myself and a very happy person.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Halifax Hypnotherapy. My life has totally changed for the better. I certainly could not have done this without John!

I started sessions with John in November 2021 after struggling with anxiety for as long as I can remember. I can honestly say my whole outlook on life has changed in the past 6 months! I’d previously tried medication, CBT and other talking therapies but unfortunately they didn’t really help long term (I felt like they worked when I was in each session and then left feeling the same and going around in never ending anxious circles after them!) I saw huge improvements in my mood and general outlook/ coping ability from the first couple of sessions with John and would honestly recommend giving it a try to everyone, it’s changed my life! I really can’t recommend this highly enough and will definitely be continuing my monthly sessions :) thank you John!

What can I say.. I had a stop smoking session with John Lowson hypnotherapy and went from smoking 20-30 cigarettes per day to detesting the smell the day after.
Ive not needed any help ie gum/ vapes to combat any cravings as there wasn't any.

The technique used is a must for anyone who is 100% wanting to quit the habit.

I have much more energy, and my outlook is a much more positive one.

A huge Thanks

Not only was the therapy fascinating and life changing it was also one of the best personal experience I've ever had. More people should try it.

I contacted John after considering hypnotherapy as an option to help me deal with an array of issues, most of which was anxiety related including feelings of stress, overwhelm and a general sense of hopelessness about my future. After a telephone consultation I felt that working with John was the right thing to do for my needs at that time. I felt very at ease with John and rapport was built very quickly, which I feel helped get the most out of our sessions. John is a very warm, passionate and upbeat therapist, I felt completely comfortable in discussing how I was feeling and didn't feel as if I needed to hold anything back. Working with John gave me the time and space for myself which I desperately needed. I already had a lot of ideas of what I wanted to do in my future and how I wanted to live my daily life, however since working with John, those ideas have become more of a reality. I have quit smoking, started eating better, exercising and have more confidence in myself and am much more optimistic about my future. I would recommend John to anyone considering hypnotherapy and am very pleased with the level of service I received.

After having had a big wobble with panic attacks and also struggling with insomnia I reached out to John and I am so glad I did. Week after week there was a marked improvement with my confidence and by week 4 I was starting to sleep a lot better than I had in months. I can’t thank John enough. Last week I received a message from a friend ...

Just needed to tell you like...WOW..!!!Who is this AMAZING...new woman ??,.
.SO incredibly proud of YOU..!!😘😘😘...💞💞💞

Focused Hypnotherapy really does work!

Have had stress/anxiety problems for years & tried various therapies without much joy. Saw John mentioned on FB so thought i'd get in touch. Really friendly chap, explained everything in it's simplest terms and assured me that he would not be making me walk like a chicken!!
Had 8 remote sessions because of lockdown and i have to say that i now feel better than i have in years. I intend "keeping my bucket empty" but i know that if needs be John is more than happy to help with some top up sessions...

From my first session to my last, i was made to feel comfortable, and invited to share my problems with John, he has a very relaxed approach to how he works and gets the information he needs to help you from what can be just a simple conversation, there are a couple of times you feel thought provoked but it is to bring the best out of each session and to help you get the most from it so dont worry,....trust me the more info and deeper you can go the better, as you may find he ends up helping you with things you didnt even think were an issue. I couldn't give John a higher regard for what he can do, and for how he has helped me. Take that first step...you won't regret it. Best regards, Scott W.

Where do I start?
I felt totally relaxed from the 1st minute right through to the end of my treatment.
I'm sure my blood and needle phobia are behind me now.
Cant thank you enough.
Thank you

I came to John a nervous wreck, I got anxiety over the smallest things. I’ve been to counselling both through the NHS and private and paid for and never got the relief I have found with hypnotherapy. What I like was that John didn’t focus on my past, that I’d rather keep buried personally, he focused on the future. He helped me remember the small things that happen in the day to make me happy, that are easy overlooked and revealed a new version of me. I now I feel more confident, happy and healthy and deal with once stressful situations rationally and maturely. I can’t thank John enough, I’ve even referred one of the person I met during my counselling to him, he is a real healer.

John has been my saviour, if I hadn't of met him I genuinely don't think I would be here writing this review. I am now living with chronic recurrent depressive disorder rather than suffering from it and this change to my life has been possible due to the techniques I've learnt through Hypnosis with John.
Why did I chose Hypnosis? After another breakdown in January and spending time in a halfway house between home and being sectioned because of my illness, I was offered help on the NHS however there was upto a 24 month waiting list for this help. My family firmly believed that I wouldn't make that 24 months. By chance my partner found Johns details and contacted him.
I had my initial consultation and immediately felt completely comfortable, John gave me a relaxation tract to listen to daily I started my Hypnosis the following week.
The change in how I felt was immediately life changing and after several years of "existing" I could beat this depression.
After several weeks I was living again, I could look in a mirror and not hate what I saw, I was showering regularly, I was smiling, I was going out a little more and just generally coping better with life.
I write this review in October, 9 months later and I am loving life more than ever before, don't get me wrong I do have days when I just "cant be bothered" or when I feel "angry" but these feelings pass quickly.
John is worth every penny, he is quite literally a life saver. I get quite emotional when I think of the journey I've been on and I am so thankful that I found John. I will be forever grateful. Thank you John,
