Testimonials

 

I think most of what could be said about Alexia's amazing abilities as a therapist and more have been said in the other reviews. She is an incredibly talented and compassionate person, who took me on when others turned me away, and is bringing me back to being a whole person again. So I'll just add one thing:

If Carlsberg did therapists, they'd be Alexia Elliott!!

 

 

 

Sometimes words do not do people justice and sometimes there are not enough words or emotions to express how grateful I am for having met such an inspirational and wonderful woman/therapist. I remember the very first session that I had with Alexia, wondering if this person was going to be able to help me. Within minutes after meeting Alexia, I was at ease and felt very relaxed and comfortable. For once in my life I felt that this time was about ME. After many years I had finally realised and accepted that there were areas in my life that I needed to change  in particular, depressive episodes and weight loss. Little did I realise that the two were so interlinked, and for the first time ever, I felt that there was someone out there who understood the pain and torment that I had been going through."

Alexia is truly an amazing therapist with so much empathy and compassion for the people that she works with. I have gained so many valuable life-tools that have helped me to work though, and continue to work through, some of the barriers I had been facing.

 

Worry and anxiety over food and my life was all consuming.  It had all but taken over all my days and left me feeling so scared and alone that I didn't think I could ever feel safe, content or allow myself to smile ever again.  I found Alexia's approach and methods were a massive help, not only in making me feel better about myself but helping me find that teeny little bit of light in my life and showing me how to brighten up my whole existence.  It all made sense after she helped me to see who I really am, turns out I didn't have all that to worry about after all and after a few sessions with her, I began to feel so much better about all that was worrying me.  I can't believe I struggled for so long when I didn't have to.  Alexia has a gentle, yet no nonsense approach that is very caring; understated but SO effective.  I'd trust her with my spirit, mind and worries without hestitation, anytime.   KDP

 The emphasis of the teaching is in the title of the course - quick, efficient cures for clients, not whys and wherefores. The client is then left empowered to go on with a life, armed with more choices than they thought possible

 

"Alexia Elliott was the Therapist I had sessions with. She was very Professional but also extremely friendly and put me at my ease straight away. I found the session fees paid for themselves in my case as I spent less on Alcohol due to them. My self belief and health also improved. Thank you."

 

 

 

 

"I looked forward to every session with Alexia and find it so easy to talk to her as I knew I can trust her. Alexia has helped me see things so much more clearly and have the belief to take things a step-at-a-time, with awareness and compassion for the journey that is taking place. Without any doubt, I will always HIGHLY RECOMMEND Alexia because, quite simply, she is the best. An inspirational person that helps you to see your world in a brighter light, an inspirational person that inspires you to be a better person". Kerry

 

 

 

"Working with Alexia of Empowerment Therapy has given me an amazing lease of life that seemed impossible 2 months ago. Alexia has a wide range of therapy skills which she constantly develops, a natural empathy toward people and an open mind. Using this mix she provided me with therapy that was specific to my needs, whilst being flexible toward the changes that I experienced. Most importantly, the journey that we went through was fun and creative (along with the odd tear); this provided me with the freedom I needed to gain true self awareness and make necessary change. Empowerment Hypnotherapy is an exceptional service that I would recommend to anyone who is looking to actively improve their life." Fiona

 

 

"I visited Alexia for weight related issues. I had struggled all my life. As well as weight loss, I was able to explore and close some very difficult issues in my life that were symptoms of my over eating. I am now able to eat sensible choices, eating wise feeling better physically and psychologically". Maisie"

 

 

 "Alexia is a great listener and orchestrator of questions that inevitably make you search your inner soul to find root causes of anxiety and stress related problems, which often manifest as physical conditions. Doctors may prescribe medication and time off to heal, but Alexia brings about a self awareness that enables improved management of the cause and a better outcome. I have no hesitation in recommending her skills to any person or organisation" David

 

 

"Alexia Elliott was the Therapist I had sessions with. She was very Professional but also extremely friendly and put me at my ease straight away. I found the session fees paid for themselves in my case as I spent less on Alcohol due to them. My self belief and health also improved. Thank you." Pete

 

 

 

 

"As I was coming from a non counselling background, I wanted a course that catered for as wide a range of therapy topics as possible. Talking Cures exceeded this aspiration in every way. I have had doors opened to so many things, it's been a delight to start investigating future directions. The course covers all conceivable presenting problems and goes on to demonstrate many different ways of approaching them - from hypnotherapy, NLP, shamanic approaches and combinations of all three.

 

I found the delivery to be well paced and sympathetic the feelings of the group. In fact it was only looking back when I realised how much ground we had covered every weekend. The theory is interspersed with practical exercises and enlivened by many anecdotes and examples from the real world of counselling. the emphasis of the teaching is in the title of the course - quick, efficient cures for clients, not whys and wherefores. The client is then left empowered to go on with a life, armed with more choices than they thought possible.

 

 

If asked to sum up the course, I would describe it as a launch pad. A runway designed for students to take off in any direction they choose in the wide world of counselling. I would recommend it heartily to anyone considering taking up counselling, furthering their career or as wonderful self development."

"Having started the course with Talking Cures Training with no prior knowledge of hypnotherapy, I can honestly say that it has changed my life. Every single module was excellently taught by Alexia and Martin, both of whom have a wealth of experience in hypnotherapy, NLP and Shamanism.

They made every single one of the students feel at home from the word go. I enjoyed the course so much that I have become a professional hypnotherapist myself. I would recommend Talking Cures Training to anyone who wants to learn the skills and techniques involved in hypnotherapy, NLP and Shamanic healing. Every single lesson involved a lot of practical work, backed up with excellent slides and presentations" Mark

 Hello,  I am a qualified and highly experienced Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, Master Practitioner in NLP (Nuero Linguistic Programming) and Timeline Therapy. My background is in Psychology, which I have taught for over 11 years. I am a Qualified Adult lecturer with extensive and varied life experience. I teach Hypnotherapy, NLP,  Contemporary Shamanism and Personal development throughout the Midlands with my collegue Martin White. Click here to see our Hypnotherapy Practitioner training course.

 

  It can be quite daunting looking for a Hypnotherapist. I remember, when I first started to look into the world of Hypnotherapy, I found it fascinating, but quite overwhelming, as there were so many people out there, offering different styles of Hypnotherapy, making amazing claims, about what Hypnotherapy and NLP can do. The problem is, if you don't know anything about Hypnotherapy and NLP, this can be quite confusing and for some a bit scary.  I recall many years ago, visiting a Hypnotherapist who was suitably qualified, they seemed very nice,  most professional during a telephone consultation. However when I arrived for my session, it was carried out  on the sofa of their family living room. I could hear the family chatting away in the background. I struggled to feel comfortable and relax in this environment and didn't return, and felt I did not benefit from that session.

 

 My advice to you, is call the Hypnotherapist, NLP Practitioner or Therapist, and arrange a free consultation. You will visit website's that look very professional, some may  offer you guarantees. Again, I recommend that  you be  cautious of such claims.  What is  important that you trust and feel safe with your Hypnotherapist and that you feel assured  that they are suitably qualified to help you. This is why I continue to offer free consultations, so people can meet me in person, and see the lovely private and safe office where we work from. you can at this point  make an informed decision whether to go ahead or not, without parting with any money. 

 

 

My professional office  is based in Desford Leicester, it's just on the outskirts of Leicestershire, there is always plenty of parking space and accesible by public transport.  I will meet you at the agreed appointment time to ensure that your needs are met and that you are comfortable throughout your visit

What I Am Not:

 

  • The cheapest hypnotherapist in town. (However I tend to work with people in fewer session's, than therapists charging less for each session)
  • Lacking in experience; I have worked with thousands of separate individuals. I teach people to be professional  Hypnotherapists. I have various professional hypnotherapy memberships.
  • A miracle worker.

 

 

What I Don’t Do:

  • Offer immediate, instant solutions or short-term fixes
  • Use any therapeutic intervention that has not got robust, empirical evidence to support its efficacy.
  • Make unreasonable promises or guarantee a cure.
  • Profess to be an expert at curing every and any known issue, because there are treatments that are better than hypnotherapy for some issues and ailments.
  •  

 

What I will do

  • Is listen to you
  • Treat you with respect
  •  Give you my undivided attention
  • Aim to help you in a way that feels right for you.
  • Use my experience to enable to get what you want and the most comfortable rate for you
  • I might make you laugh from time to time.
  •  

 

 

I  run my busy and successful Clinical Practice In Desford Leicester, Leicestershire. I have helped literally thousands of people change, as a result of this; I've earned an enviable reputation, as an excellent Therapist, Hypnotherapist, and inspirational Change worker offering ethical and high quality service. 

 

It is my ethos that hypnotherapy should be enjoyed, regardless of how profound the changes are that you wish to make. My site, aims to tell you all, that you need to know about benefiting from individual hypnotherapy sessions with me here at my Leicestershire based Hypnotherapy practice. I have been teaching Hypnotherapy for over 7 years now and I really, really, love it, but First and foremost,  I am a therapist, A Hypnotherapist and that is my greatest passion. 

 

If you have learned somewhere along the line that hypnotherapy is a serious business, where you sit for hours wondering when you are going to have something tangible to show for your time and money, this often isn’t the case, Hypnotherapy  and NLP are powerful.  

 

 

  Empowerment Hypnotherapy is based in Desford Leicester, on the outskirts of Leicestershire.

 

I specialise in weight related issues and anxiety disorders. This doesn't mean, I do not work or have experience with other issues, as I do. I have many years of experience working with many other complex emotional, Psychological and physical issues. My therapeutic approach is client centered, focusing on your needs in a flexible, simple, yet effective manner. As a result of working with me, you will develop a greater understanding of you and your inner resources,  skills and needs, which allow you to regain control and personal power.

 

 

I employ a variety of techniques, approaches and ideas, such as Hypnotherapy, NLP, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Timeline Therapy,  Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychotherapy, I often draw upon ancient wisdom. Psychology theory plays a role in the delivery  of all these disciplines, they blend and complement each other well. They provide a well-rounded and flexible approach to the treatment of a wide variety of psychological and somatic problems.

 

With over 20 years’ experience working for the Mental Health Services (NHS), on various psychiatric wards, Homeless sector (working in hostels and with rough sleepers) and Education (teaching psychology and various personal development course courses). I believe my background in these areas adds to my wealth of knowledge, skill and understanding regarding the complexity of human behaviour, emotion and thought, but more importantly our inner ability to change and transform.

 

 I have worked for the Local Education Authority for over 10yrs teaching Psychology, Life skills, Life coaching, Mental Health Awareness, Women's Empowerment Groups, and Meditation to Adults of all ages and have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

There is something about, being above the clouds that does it for me.

 

 

 

 

 

It is important that when you consult a therapist, ensure that they are appropriately qualified to assist you and you feel comfortable with them.
