Phobia Therapy Specialist Exeter - Heale Hypnotherapy

Being at a low point again with my anxiety disorder, I searched for help and found Stuart’s details as a phobia specialist. My main issue was a fear of going out, driving, going to places I felt trapped in.After an initial consultation with Stuart I felt so positive I couldn’t wait to start.I’ve had hypnotherapy before, for a relationship issue, so thought I knew what to expect. However, Stuart’s techniques were different. You’re not under hypnosis in the way everyone assumes it will be. I was always in full control of what we were doing. The technique used is amazing, being able to contact my subconscious and ask directly to show me the issues - and reply. Wow!!!! I’ve been absolutely fascinated by it all and feel amazing after each session as I feel connected with my own thoughts again. Things I never even realised were issues have surfaced and have been dealt with. I’ve been able to get to shops, drive, visit people and go to appts. Loving the experience and journey I am on and cannot thanks Stuart enough for his expertise and understanding. Absolutely recommend giving this a try!

Stuart’s kind and thoughtful approach has really helped me to feel in control of my anxiety. He has given me great strategies to work through any worries with confidence. His messages after our meetings were very supportive and hugely appreciated. Thank you so much Stuart!

I have been seeing Stuart for around 4 months to help with my panic attacks on the motorway. I wasn’t sure he would be able to help as this has been a long-standing problem (almost 20 years).Well after learning the techniques and lots of practice I have been driving on the motorway and going further each time. I’m still practicing the techniques and keep aiming for longer distances. I would really recommend his services as I really didn’t think I would be able to drive on the motorway like I can now. Stuart has been so supportive of my driving journey and I can’t thank him enough!

I have suffered from an almost debilitating phobia of spiders for the entirety of my adult life, and it was starting to make simple tasks difficult. After just 1 session I walked away feeling lighter and calmer, with much more clarity, confidence and general well-being. After 4 sessions, thanks to Stuart, I am free of the constant (and it really was constant!) fear of bumping into a spider, and the pure panic upon seeing one. Through his kind, patient guidance I have been able to rid myself not only of the fear and anxiety associated with spiders, but also niggling anxieties and worries that had crept into other areas of my life too. As I told Stuart, the results are small but mighty. The subtle changes brought about through these sessions have had such a profound effect on my day to day living - I now live in harmony with the (large!) spider that lives alongside my front door, which is a far cry from where we were a few short months ago! And that's just one example of many. I cannot thank, or recommend, Stuart enough.

Stu is so in tune with people and has managed to dig deeper than I ever thought I needed to. I now have the tools to help me be a much calmer, more positive person. Would recommend to anyone who has anxiety. Thanks so much Stu ☺️.

I have just had a session with Stuart, before this I couldn't even look at spiders on TV never mind anything else.Now I am sat googling spider videos and am completely at peace and calm.Thankyou so so much

I highly recommend Stuart as a very professional, calming and friendly hypnotherapist. I had a spider phobia, scoring 9/10 on the phobia scale, all of my life. It was really starting to take over my life and make simple tasks difficult. I went to see Stuart and he brought this right down and I am now able to deal with and catch spiders myself. I can't recommend his services enough.

After struggling with bad anxiety for most my life I have seen hypnotherapists previously, tried CBT and have been to the doctors on several occasions. On my last visit to them my doctor recommended Stuart and was the best decision I have ever made, he has helped me manage to take control of my anxiety once and for all. He is extremely professional and made me feel comfortable straight away. One of the most genuine people I have ever met and gets a massive buzz from helping people out and really does care for his patients.I owe this man a lot! Would highly recommend him for anxiety, phobias or anything else you need!

For several years I suffered with overwhelming anxiety that had a huge impact on my day to day life. I happened to see one of Stuart posts when I was trying to distract myself during another anxiety attack in a public place. I wish I had contacted him sooner.Despite knowing Stuart personally for many years, Stuart was professional and I felt very comfortable and at ease throughout our therapeutic relationship. The 3 or 4 sessions I had were life changing for me, I am no longer experiencing irrational anxiety and I can not thank Stuart enough.Stuart has a gift and is clearly passionate about helping others.
