Amethyst Therapy

A great experience with Amethyst Therapy. As someone who was originally doubtful about the idea of therapy I decided to give it a go and have been pleasantly surprised with the outcome of it dealing with problems I thought could not be sorted. Will be forever thankful to the service provided and would highly recommend.

I started working with Linda some time ago and during a turbulent time in my life. I had escaped a domestic abuse situation and relocated to start a new life. New job, new home, new relationship, but somehow things were not as I felt they should be and I was unhappy and confused. Linda worked with me to help me understand dysfunctional relationships in my life and why I kept finding myself in these situations. I realised I needed to learn about myself, understand and be compassionate towards myself and reframe my thinking. It has been amazing to have Linda as my support and advocate - to guide me gently through some really difficult stuff in my life and to look towards a calmer, more peaceful future. I am the same person - what has shifted though with Linda’s expertise compassion and humour, is the way I look at life, how people behave, and why they might behave in this way - to recognise the responsibility I have and what is clearly not my responsibility. That continues to be hard - however the inner voice is now powerful and reminds me of all I have learned - that was not present before Linda’s intervention - it’s so valuable to me. I have learned to self soothe in healthy ways, and if I do lurch towards old habits I do not beat myself up, just dust myself off - it’s just a small setback - and carry on. I would say my life has not been the easiest, but now I understand that my purpose in life is not to convince difficult people to love me and Linda has helped me to come to that realisation and respond accordingly. I cannot thank Linda enough for her compassion and honesty - my life now has purpose and meaning because I now understand things that before I did not, and without abusive and controlling influences in my life I am strong, capable and more equipped to deal with life’s difficulties. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending Linda - I had regular sessions for over a year and I know I would not be this far forward in my recovery journey if it were not for Linda. It really is worth having faith in the process and Linda’s dedication and wisdom - with work things can indeed be different !Moreexpand_more

Linda helped me to address my anxieties and work out that a lot had stemmed from my childhood. We covered CBT, hypnotherapy and Linda taught me ways to cope and deal if I feel anxious. Thank you for all your help Linda, and for making me feel myself again xx.

Linda’s guidance to help focus my mind, attention and energy on my ability to make better decisions, build confidence and reduce anxiety has been a huge factor in my life over the last few months. Highly recommend.

Great experience, as someone who’s clueless around hypnosis, Linda explained the whole experience from start to finish. What to expect etc. I was able to stop vaping as a result of the therapy without any relapses. Couldn’t recommend more to help with stopping smoking/vaping.

I have over the years struggled to stop smoking using willpower, patches, gum and vapes with no success. I had been through a sad time in my life and decided to stop smoking. I booked to see Linda and try hypnotherapy to stop smoking. I was very sceptical about it but after the two sessions I have not even thought about cigarettes or craved them. I did find some little Vanilla cigars in the bungalow that my partner and myself smoked when on holiday. I sercumbed after a while and smoked one, it brought back some memories but I didn't enjoy it. I threw the rest away in the bin and haven't looked back. Thank you Linda the best £'s spent for a long time.

My husband and I worked with Linda for psychosexual therapy combined with couples therapy. We found Linda to be very knowledgeable and perceptive. We're both hugely grateful for her help. Our only regret is not seeking her out sooner!

My partner and I started seeing Linda with a variety of issues but predominantly following infidelity. Linda was very patient with both of us and calmly took us through the journey of discovery to understand why it happened, how we could fix it and move forward, discover more about ourselves as individuals and our needs. I can honestly say it was the best decision both of us made to see Linda. We certainly wouldnt be together today without her. We are in a stronger, secure and loving relationship with all the tools in place to ensure we have an amazing future with each other. We will be forever grateful.

I absolutely recommend talking to Linda if you want to make positive progress and take charge. Each session felt productive and well thought out. I had my first experience of hypnosis therapy which alongside other sessions has helped me to move forward in my life. Thank you!

Linda helped transform the way I saw myself and helped me find answers to questions I have had my whole life! By far one of the best decisions I have made and the tools she has given me will help me for a long time to come. Thank you!

I came to Linda after recognising that I had difficulty moving forward in relationships and was backing away from intimacy and commitment. Linda helped me reflect on patterns of behaviour and understand how attachment and loss in my earlier life had helped to create this. It was painful work but so worth it. I now feel so much more confident and assertive. Linda has been wonderful and I just wished I’d found her years ago.

I have visited to cover a couple of problematic areas in my life which I have now overcome thanks to Linda’s help. From day one Linda provided a calm and comfortable atmosphere where I could talk openly, she set out a clear plan and encouraged me along the way. I’m so glad I booked that first appointment, I’ve developed my confidence and at last found my way out of the rut I’d gotten into. Thank you so very much Linda for guiding me and making it a rewarding and enjoyable process!

Linda has honestly been fantastic - if only I found her sooner! Kind, funny and and obviously very caring. I’d recommend her to anyone, young or older.

I wish I'd seen Linda years ago as I wouldn't have ended up in so many disastrous relationships. A brand new outlook towards men and feeling very positive about it! :-). Thank you soooooo much! .

Highly recommend Linda, always makes you feel comfortable and so easy to talk to. You will learn what it takes to get better, every session you have will be enlightening!

When I met Linda for the first time I knew I had done the right thing going to see her. Linda was so warming and welcoming and made me feel safe and relaxed to open up about a lifetime of trauma which I’d bottled up for many years. I opened up so much I thought I would never stop. Linda very quickly identified that I had low self esteem and preoccupied anxiety. In between sessions Linda gave me homework to do which kept me focussed. I truly learnt how to self soothe thanks to Linda’s guidance which also encouraged me to explore other ways of self healing. Linda gave me strategies and coping mechanisms to see things in a different way and I am now feeling more confident and see things in a very different way. This is all thanks to Linda who is very kind and professional, I can’t thank you enough for helping me understand why I was like I was and will forever be grateful for your help and support. Thank you.

Linda has had an amazing impact on me and my life, through advice, education and a great listening ear she had provided invaluable life skills to assist in a happier place. Allowing me to appreciate "the moment" and make "the right" decisions in life. I arrived 12 months ago a real mess with historic underlying issues and poor decision making and left 12 months later a more confident, happier person who makes the right decisions now. Linda has been an absolute "life saver" for me. Thank you for everything, you are one fantastic lady! Jonathan.

I saw Linda after being recommended by a friend after finding myself in a bad place, had so many questions. With Linda's help, we devised a plan. Initially meeting once a week then every 2 weeks. Linda was patient, listened and offered advise. With her help I was able to gain self-respect and esteem, ask questions and get what I needed out if situations. I was also able to stand up for myself more. She is one in a million and can't thank her enough.

After struggling for awhile, I decided to seek Linda’s help. After the first session I noticed a change in my behaviour. I still have a few off days but with the tools Linda has supplied me with I know I have this! Thank you Linda!

Exploring my issues with Linda has enabled me to think and act positively. Linda provided me with a safe place to talk about painful memories from my past that were having an impact on my current day to day life. I worked through my issues at my own pace and felt comfortable doing so. As a result of my counselling sessions, I am in tune with my needs and more assertive. I am a much happier person and am more in control of my life than ever before. I will be forever grateful to Linda for listening.
