Dear Dr Kraft

I need to speak to you about my performance anxiety. I am a trombone player and I play regularly at festivals and concerts throughout the year. The work that I do pays the bills, but it is the solo work that I enjoy the most and it also pays well. But when I get to the venue I get so anxious that I can’t perform well. Now, it has got worse. My performance anxiety affects me the day before, and start developing panic symptoms a whole day before the event. I get moody. My heart begins to race, the palms for my hands get sweaty (I understand that this is called hyperhidrosis__I have looked on Google), and I am out of control. Apart from when I am asleep, which incidentally take a long time, these feelings build up and get worse and worse. When I arrive at the concert venue, I become so stressed that I begin to shake. I can’t hold a pen let alone a trombone. My sister said that I should get help, and see someone who specializes in performance anxiety hypnotherapy, and someone who does it in London. I live in West London and I need to see somebody in London because of my work.

I perform all over the place, but most of the rehearsals are in central London. Can you see me soon? I have a really important gig in Basingstoke and I have been learning this piece of music for several months now. It is really important. I also understand that performance anxiety hypnotherapy is long lasting and continues to grow on its own. Is that correct?

Dear Kel

I can certainly see you. Please give me a ring on 0207 467 8564. Hypnotherapy, combined with counselling and/or psychotherapy, are together very powerful in treatment and the effects are long lasting. I tend to give suggestions such as, ‘the process of becoming more and more confident…..grows inside of you stronger and stronger as time passes’ . This is very useful during the hypnotherapy.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Dr David Kraft

My name is J. I am 14 stone and I have had two babies. I am now 42 and decided to have a hysterectomy last month because of what my doctor said. I went to a specialist in London and he performed the operation under a general anaesthetic. I want to take off weight so much. I was 10 stone five years ago before I had my two daughters and I want to take off that weight. Now, I am so depressed too. I know that the operation was a life changing event for a woman, but I feel less of a woman. I still want sex and everything, but I somehow feel less attractive to my husband. I feel fat, and non-sexy, and this feeling has worsened since I had the operation. I want another operation now to get rid of the fat, but I know that this would probably be a bad idea. Can we use hypnotherapy to help me with this problem? I heard that weight loss hypnotherapy was very effective for woman.

The fact that I have had a hysterectomy won’t effect my ability to take off weight, will it? I was told by my doctor that each person is different and that I should be fine, and still have good sex. I have had good sex since the oiperation, although it took some time to recover from this trauma.

I took a lot of care after the operation. Many surgeons agree that six to eight weeks is sufficient time to recover from the operation: I did not have sex for three months even though I was dying for it.

I worried that I would get chronic pelvic pain, but I didn’t.

Please help me take off weight and feel better about myself. If hypnotherapy is useful, please help me.

Dear sir

Thank you for my hypnotherapy. I have now got my bulimia under control, and I feel more in control in my life. I am now eating what I like but in smaller quantities. The work we did in the sessions has really helped me to believe in myself. I am now going back to the states, but, when I come back, I would like to see you again because I feel that this is the right thing to do. I might have a hypnotherapy booster, or I might have a psychotherapy session. These psychotherapy sessions seem to work too. I have space to talk to you about whatever I need to talk to you about. You will be pleased to know that I am also practising self hypnotherapy too. This is empowering. I think that if I ever meet someone in London who needs hypnotherapy, I will recommend them to you. I feel great now, and feel comfortable with my weight. I do not need to binge anymore. It was tough to sort out. I cried a lot during the hypnotherapy and at home and I am seeing less of my mother during the week; but I feel more in control of my life, and the bulimic attacks have stopped. I think that everyone should try hypnotherapy. I had no idea that my mother was so interconnected with this whole thing, you know. Wow. What a strange thing! Thanks again

Dear Dr Kraft

Thank you for my hypnotherapy sessions in Harley Street. I am now a size 10 and I love it. I have bought a new wardrobe and I eat sensibly every day, and I also give myself treats in the evening every weekend. Thank you very much,, Hypnotherapy has changed my life and I feel that I can stay this weight forever. The hypnotherapy has given me the strength to do what I want to do and to be sensible. Even if I eat pizza, I eat sensibly the next day. I initially lost weight with you and now I am maintaining this weight, thanks to your guidance, and the self hypnotherapy which I do every day.

Thank you again.

Thanks very much for my appointment London Hypnotherapy UK. I wne tot see Dr David Kraft in October 2009, and I am still 9 stone 5 pounds. I seem to find dieting and living normally very easy. I eat what I like at the weekend and eat sensibly throughout the week. I love my new size and it is staying that way. No more crash diets and no more cravings. Just sensible eating. Hypnotherapy has changed my life and your guidance has made me really happy.

Still going…

I would like to thank Dr David Kraft for his help in getting me better. I was looking for a top hypnotherapist who could help me with my problems. I have been suffering from flying phobia and this had affected my relationship with my wife. We went away occasionally but I would always have to take a boat the the destination and found the outward trip really stressful indeed. My flying phobia is now not there at all. Thank you Dr Kraft for your care and support.

To London Hypnotherapy UK

I just wanted to put pen and paper to thank you so much for your help and the hypnotherapy. As soon as I phoned, I felt that I was in good hands, and they said that the hypnotherapist is extremely good at what he does. They also said that he is a psychotherapist too and that is principally what he does. Well, you know, the slogan of London Hypnotherapy UK is ’someone who cares…’ and I think that this is correct. The secretaries were lovely and helpful too. I have to say that I felt worried about the whole hypnosis thing. And I didn’t think that it would help me at all. I have been suffering from insomnia and hypnogogic hallucinations for many years now and I had come to the end of the road. But the hypnotherapist, Dr Kraft, reassured me and made me feel much better. He guided me through the hypnotherapy process and this helped me a great deal. I think that he is the best hypnotherapist ever. I should know. I have seen three in my life so far, and I don’t think I need to see another hypnotherapist ever again. He also taught me self hypnosis and this is really important indeed. If you need a hypnotherapist in London, contact London Hypnotherapy UK. Their phone number is 07946 579645, and they are really helpful. The only thing that I found difficult was the first session. But you have to work through that if you want to get better. A friend of mine went to see the same hypnotherapist and he got better too. But he said that he was in a terrible state for several days after some of the session. I only had 5 sessions and got better, but he cried during the hypnotherapy and it took him a couple of months before he felt ready to leave. I suppose we are all different.

Dr David Kraft: Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist

To the hypnotherapist

I would like to thank London Hypnotherapy UK for my treatment. I saw Dr David Kraft in May 2010 and he was a great source of comfort to me. Hypnotherapy is so powerful. I used it before to help me with my IBS and found that this was successful too. I wanted to see a top hypnotherapist in London and I was not disappointed. I had been suffering from insomnia for most of my life and now I am very much better–and this is all due to the care and the hypnotherapy that I received in Harley Street. I feel that the approach helped and worked for me very much–hypnotherapy can be instructive but can also help people to make their own decisions in their own time. I was given so much time and space to work things out in the hypnotherapy. Dr Kraft called it ‘content free hypnotherapy’, but I say that this was inspired hypnotherapy. I feel cured. I knew that the first time I slept without any problems that this would happen more frequently. And it did… Now, not only am I able to enjoy sleeping, and have a restful night’s sleep, but I also enjoy snoozing both when getting to sleep and in the morning. If I get woken up, it is not a problem. I was also taught self hypnotherapy so that I can use this in order to help me get to sleep.

I thoroughly recommend London Hypnotherapy UK to anyone, but especially to people who are suffering from insomnia or from another sleeping disorder.  

Thanks again
