I had the pleasure of using Joanna Hannaford Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy services. I was blown away with what came out of that session and almost instant healing for some of the issues that I had for years. I found her voice very soothing and by her asking the right questions, guiding me to forgotten memories which surfaced. I will use Joanna’s hypnotherapy and meditation services again to heal other problems in the future.
Thank you very much Jo.

My ADHD brain is always overwhelmed and chaotic, one meditation session with Jo had me feeling lighter and my brain feeling quieter. I left feeling like I was floating, with associated stillness.

Joanna has a way of making me comfortable and safe. She helped me with a presenting issue that was causing me some anxiety with a meeting I was worried about. With her help I was able to attend the meeting without reacting and also being heard.

Joanna did a group meditation class for our customers and it was a beautiful experience. She has a calm, grounded presence and held the space with ease. The room was set up thoughtfully and professionally, creating a welcoming and peaceful atmosphere from the moment people arrived. Her guidance was warm, engaging, and soothing, and everyone left feeling deeply relaxed and supported. We received wonderful feedback from participants and would happily welcome her back again.
