Thank you."

Dr. JH- General Dentist

"Hi Zoe 

Thank you so so much for my session the other day . I’ve realised from my session with you .. that there was just such a build up of suppressed trauma ! Something had to give a few years ago I realise that now . Thank you so much for being there and for your wonderful skills as a dentist and hypnotherapist xx I’m practicing the benny hill scramble technique when ever I think of swallowing and panic and of the sensation of the lovely comforting strong marble in my hand ! Also the vision of me as a conqueror as well as a survivor! Xx"
