Social Anxiety Disorder

Social anxiety disorder is an overwhelming fear of social situations and it is believed that one in ten people suffer from this disorder and for most it will not go away without help.

For many it means worrying about an up and coming event many weeks in advance, worrying during the event and for some days or weeks after the event.

For some sufferers even a visit to the shops can be stressful because they may fear being judged or watched by strangers.

The anxiety can lead to you to being depressed, withdrawn and to having a feeling of being isolated. If untreated, you could develop other anxieties including a fear of leaving the home (agoraphobia), or other phobias and/or OCD.

By using a combination of psychotherapy, analytical hypnotherapy, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), emotional freedom techniques (EFT) and mindfulness, I can help you to identify the core reasons why you are experiencing this anxiety and help you to release and let go of them.

I will help you to increase your confidence and self-esteem enabling you to feel comfortable and at ease in social situations.

If you are suffering from this disorder contact me today for a confidential and complementary telephone consultation and see how I can help you.

Testimonials

"Diagnosed with emphysema 2 years ago ... had tried to give up using all the usual stuff like patches, pills, fake fags none of it worked, so decided to try hypnosis, it worked in just one go 10 months ago and I don’t miss it at all.

JBH – Derby

"During a period of stress and anxiety in my life, a friend recommended that I talk to Carol. I wasn’t keen on taking anti-depressants but was nervous as I didn’t know anything about how hypnotherapy worked. Carol explained the process and benefits of it, which put my mind at ease. After only a couple of sessions I felt able to get on with my life again. Thank you, Carol.

Claire – Derbyshire

"Failed driving test 3 times ... I was very nervous about trying hypnosis thought it would be like you see on TV, where you don’t know what’s going on and have no control but it wasn’t ... Past my test, I enjoyed it as I felt soooo relaxed and confident’

Philip – Derby

I had a presentation to do and my last presentation I made a complete fool of myself because the nerves were so bad that my throat dried up and I couldn’t get my words out. But thanks to Carol I was able to confront my fear and I went on to do a presentation confidently and I felt so proud of myself when my feedback was " confident and calm manner"

Kim – Nottingham

"I had been three stone over weight, ever since giving birth to my daughter, fifteen years ago ... we discussed my weight problem and my history and decided that I may need more than the single session weight loss programme. Took me less than four months to reach my ideal weight and have kept it off ever since ... I know that I will never go back to thinking about food the way I used’.

Sally – Ashby De la Zouch

"One session was all it took and listening to the CD at home, can’t begin to tell you what a change it has made to my life, being free of all that weight. Finally the real me is revealed."

Angela – Nottinghamshire

"Was I nervous? – yes. Did I think it would work? – wasn’t sure. Am I glad I tried it? – absolutely. I’ve not only lost weight but I’ve gained confidence, peace and tranquillity."
