Reviews & Recommendations

"At Black Dog Therapy, both Kate and Luke are superb. Both lovely down to earth people. With any sort of therapy, you are always anxious of how things may go, but in my experience with Kate and Luke I felt completely comfortable in a safe non-judgmental environment with people who really listen and provide practical and logically advice and services. I found that the use of EFT and hypnosis was literally life changing and something I incorporate into my everyday life now. It genuinely feels like playing life with a cheat code for helping to deal with overwhelming thoughts and emotions and help to put the brakes on an ever whirring mind. In my first session with Luke I felt and saw a massive change within the hour. Highly recommended!" Kane Lister (Nov 2023)


"Really amazed again by the professionalism and care "
Stephanie Gentelle-Bonnassies

Really amazed again by the professionalism and care from Kate today during an on-line session. The goal was to let go of a chronic pain which has already been addressed with other techniques. I really appreciated her dedication. She took me through each step of the process showing empathy, intuition and knowledge. Kate is accessible and perceptive. I felt immediate relief. It is not the first time I have worked with Kate as she helped us previously. 
Depending on the results with this session, as one session is not always enough, or for other reasons, I will be happy to come back.

And thumbs ups for working on line with the Covid-19 situation!

"Kate really genuinely cares for her clients wellbeing and I wholeheartedly recommend her."

"Kate is wonderfully empathetic while also being totally professional. I immediately felt comfortable in her presence even when confronting some embarrassing or distressing life situations. 

She was incredibly thorough, and went above and beyond what she had promised... She has a very good understanding of chronic illness, whether physical and/or mental, and how difficult it can be to juggle the health demands of multiple symptoms or conditions. My GP was very impressed with her report, and despite having cared for me for many years, he had not realised the extent of my difficulties day to day until he read her summary. 

Kate really genuinely cares for her clients wellbeing and I wholeheartedly recommend her."
"I feel like a different person now, and this is after one session!... I've recommended you to everyone I know!"

Frankie L

"I came to see Kate a fair few weeks ago now but I cannot thank her enough. My anxiety had gone through the roof after the birth of my son and lots of different issues were flaring up from the past and exacerbating it. It was making me really fearful of a future operation I was due to have. 

Well safe to say I feel like a different person now, and this is after one session! I'm not fearful of the future and what it might bring, in fact I'm excited, and putting my demons behind me.

So thank you Kate, you made me realise that it is ok not to be ok, talk things through and find a resolution. I've recommended you to everyone I know!"

"My attitudes to my problems flipped completely"

“I didn’t know what hypnotherapy was. I’d seen people be ‘hypnotised’ on tv but I came into this without letting that form any opinions I might have. Kate asked me initially to tell her why I wanted help and what it was I wanted to get out of the sessions. We chatted, it was easy and open. Kate asked simple questions and made me feel at ease the whole way, supportive and caring. 

I didn’t know what to anticipate in the first session, would I be unable to control what was happening? Would she have control over me? How would it work? Kate talked me through different types of therapy, asked me questions and used my own words to form the sessions, making it all natural and familiar. I’ve never felt more relaxed and calm, we have worked together to tailor the sessions and always openly talk and review the work we have done together. 

Kate has given me the tools to ensure that even between sessions I am able to focus and further the work we have started. The results I have seen so far have been phenomenal, my issues focused on eating and body confidence saw immediate changes. My attitudes to my problems flipped completely, all because of the work Kate has done with me. She is completely invested in my journey and works alongside me to ensure I get the most from each therapy.” E.M. 

"I am free of the guilt, anger, pain & shame and burden of my former addiction "

"WOW....after years of trying to quit through various means, this has been a totally mind opening experience. Now I know I have the ability to be able to control myself, to find out the real reasons why and how, through controlling and working with my forgotten deep memories & feelings, which no one else could offer. 

I really was at my desperate end, nearly losing everything dear to me, but after 5 very emotional, but incredibly spiritual and relaxing sessions, I now feel, in fact, know, I am in control of my destiny and I am free of the guilt, anger, pain & shame and burden of my former addiction which has cost me dearly over the 40 years I’ve been a slave to the feelings connected with gambling. 

Whole heartedly recommend Kate to work with you, for you, when you’re ready to make the change you need to get whatever monkey is on your back-incredible lady, soothing voice and hypnosis is just an amazing experience!!! Not the ‘Paul McKenna’ stage show, but deep relaxation & mind opening...I will be back, but not for the reason I originally went for, she’s cured me of that, next is pain! Let’s see how she can cure my back pain, I know she’ll do it!!!" Dean A 

“I would thoroughly recommend Black Dog Therapy"

Caroline

"When Kate set up a local mindfulness group, I was keen to join having recently been diagnosed with a life limiting illness with all the low mood and anxiety that comes with it. The group was professional and sensitively run and all members felt it a safe place to voice our worries. I learnt a variety of techniques to approach mindfulness and really feel the benefit on the more tricky days. 

More recently, I have had a hypnotherapy session which has been hugely beneficial. Kate is kind and professional and I would really recommend her."

"Completely helped me change my thinking on life"

Natalie 

"I joined a Mindfulness group. Kate has completely helped me change my thinking on life! I was a glass half empty, it’s raining, we haven’t got any money! NOW. Glass half full!

The rain makes my plants grow and you can always get dry! We don’t have money but we have health. Appreciate the people around you."

"Working on myself with Kate has been life changing"

J.E.

"Without exaggeration, my time spent working on myself with Kate has been life changing. I am now more confident and open, calmer and ready to face whatever life brings my way without being influenced by experiences of my past. I could not recommend Kate and her therapy strongly enough."
