Rachel Bernard – Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist

Rachel worked with my 10 year old daughter, who was suffering with severe anxiety and had developed a habit cough as a consequence. She was so friendly and welcoming and it was wonderful to see my daughter grow in confidence in Rachel’s company. Rachel’s techniques really helped her to overcome issues she was facing in school and she is using them independently now when she becomes anxious. The Nest is simply a wonderful and relaxing place to be and Rachel creates a safe and calming atmosphere. I would highly recommend her.

Rachel is incredibly intuitive in identifying the problem and shows great insight in applying a solution. Her treatment space is a joy to be in and Rachel has a very calming manner. She makes a massive difference – I highly recommend.

I’m generally someone who holds on to a lot of stress and I find it difficult to relax, especially to meditate. I really didn’t think this would work for me and that l’d struggle to focus and empty my mind. However I was put so at ease, and surprisingly I was able to sink deeply into a state of relaxation with the calm, comforting voice and relaxing environment. Since having the Hypno Reboost session, I have felt so much calmer, and find I haven’t reacted to stressors in the same way.

Rachel provided a clear and detailed outline of what to expect in each session, making me feel well-informed from the very beginning. Her openness and transparency made it easy to trust both her and the process ahead. Rachel truly listened to me, allowing me to discuss my concerns, and she quickly identified areas where she could help. I felt she genuinely understood the challenges I was facing, and she was able to assess my learning and compliance styles. With that in mind, she set clear, achievable goals for me right from the first session. Rachel also provided supportive resources, including personalised audio recordings, to reinforce our work between sessions. Each session, we reviewed progress on the goals, discussed what would come next, and ensured I was fully clear on what was expected before our next meeting. Even after just the first session, I noticed improvements. By the third session, I had significantly reduced the behaviour. I’m blown away with the impact it’s had on me and highly recommend.
