Pain Reprocessing Therapy UK

I felt Anne believed in me which in turn helped me to believe in myself and take my power back—in such a short time. Her sensitive warm sincere approach together with her ability to give of herself in a professional way enabled me to believe the this method would work. It was much more than I expected.

All the tools were very helpful. The sessions have made a great deal of difference, I now feel I have a future to look forward to, whereas before I felt I had to accept my life was very limited due to the pain. My symptoms have greatly improved and I now feel in control and don’t despair about them.

Anne tailored the therapy and the audios perfectly to suit me and guide me in the most effective way. My mindset to the pain and symptoms has changed and has allowed me to go back to exercising. I still have symptoms now and then but they come and go quickly due to being able to deal with them.

The sessions completely changed my life. For four years I have not been able to exercise and this therapy has made all the difference. I would 100% recommend.

I suffer from fibromyalgia and the pain was affecting my day to day life so much. I very rarely get shooting pain in my body, or tingling toes, or an upset tummy anymore. I sleep much better; I feel like my brain is clearer and I am in control of everything.

Since having my sessions with Anne I have felt 100% better in myself, I wake up smiling and ready to start the day and not wishing I could spend all day in bed. My pain is almost completely gone. I get the odd twinge but nothing to the degree of what it is was before, I don’t collapse in pain or exhaustion.

The most effective things for me were learning how my brain works and retraining it to stop the pain and learning all the different techniques to calm myself down and stop my brain going into overdrive with things that are out of my control.

I am so thankful to Anne for helping me become more strong and realising I am in control, not my brain. Thank you is not enough!

I have had such an amazing learning and healing experience. My pain/sensations have lowered drastically. From going from high 8 to 10s of severe pain to now having moments of peace and minimal pain of 0-2. I have less symptoms when working long hours on my feet and am able to slowly start to enjoy more exercise based activities without pain.

I would 100% recommend to anyone having chronic pain, that affects their life. Being told that your pain is something that cannot be fully cured, or living with something that has such a toll on your life, to then being given this treatment is such a relief — it has helped me to change and let go of the pain and all of the emotions attached to it too.

The pain in my head and brain fog has significantly lessened over the months I’ve worked with Anne. I no longer feel extremely fuzzy-headed after a stressful or active day. I’m waking up much more clear-headed. My pain/fog levels are definitely the lowest they’ve been over the past several years. I have faith my pain/fog will continue to reduce from here with more time. Overall, I feel like I have I large toolbox now to continue to manage my pain/brain fog, and also live a healthier, more balanced life.

Anne was a fantastic teacher and an excellent support throughout the process. After a challenging journey with various medical professionals, it was nothing short of life-changing for me to have someone I felt was genuinely in my corner, and actually had the tools to make a difference. I now feel something I haven’t felt for a long while – hope that my pain and brain fog continue to fade away. I’d highly recommend Anne to anyone struggling with chronic pain.

I was gifted a session of hypnotherapy with Anne shortly after my cancer diagnosis. It was an incredibly empowering gift at a time when I felt at my most vulnerable. I felt immediately in safe hands: Anne’s approach is based firmly on scientific evidence, therapeutic expertise, and human compassion.

During the session I was equipped with strategies not only for feeling less anxious and improving my sleep in the short term during treatment, but for supporting my whole-body wellbeing in the long term and after cancer. I found hypnotherapy with Anne so effective that I gifted a session to someone else, so they could benefit too.

After working with Anne I did more in 6 months than I did in 12 years with mainstream medical treatment. I was so inspired I recently started my journey into becoming a practitioner myself.

Somatic Tracking was super effective, also really enjoyed the Progressive Muscle Relaxation and Leaves on a Stream. Anne was lovely — the encouragement and the kindness in particular.

In terms of pain, it is now far less in my legs and it moved around, while it is still there on and off it is far, far less which is wonderful! I would absolutely recommend Anne to others and have already done so 😀

Anne is such an excellent teacher with a really kind and compassionate way of sharing things and she has the softest most relaxing Scottish accent ever. I really enjoyed the group programme and cannot recommend it, or Anne, highly enough. This really works. The part that helped me the most was the Somatic Tracking and dealing with thoughts (milk milk milk). I also love having the audios so I can continue using them. I would 100% recommend to others who are ready to understand more about chronic pain and take their power back and work towards overcoming it!

Anne has been fantastic and has helped me resolve 90% of my back pain and neck pain and improving my prickling skin. She is a very genuine person, doing this to make a difference. Anne has a lovely way of relaxing, encouraging and supporting. She understands the tools and goes the extra mile with anything you need.

Before this I had spent thousands on chiropractors, osteopaths, acupuncture, physios and back injections but none of it really helped; it turned out that all I needed was self-belief, commitment and Anne’s wonderful support.

I was introduced to Anne by my local Macmillan centre at a crucial time when I was in abject despair, facing a crippling phobia of chemotherapy compounded by PTSD and added trauma from previous ‘Pandemic cancer’. I felt like I might sink beyond rock-bottom if I went ahead, and was doomed either way.

From the moment I met Anne I was put at ease and gratefully took to her positivity, practicality, and empathy. It was thus with natural trust in her that I was able to relax fully into the hypnosis sessions that were paramount to rerouting my thought paths. In them, I learned to teach my brain, whilst in a super relaxed state, to ‘time travel’ to my upcoming Chemo treatments and practise experiencing them increasingly in calmness.

And it truly worked thankfully! I coped better than I ever thought possible. We continued reinforcement with visualisation of the drugs working on a cellular level and future self-audio goals. The nurses were all on board, and have been so impressed by the level of wellness and fitness I maintained throughout treatment. I was not sick in bed once or depressed as I feared. Instead, my friends thought I was glowing and I can only put this down to Anne’s help in conquering an immeasurable obstacle. My chemotherapy nurses have said they would recommend Anne to anyone they see suffering with similar anxiety issues, and I myself of course wouldn’t hesitate to… her help has been literally lifesaving and I’m ever grateful xxx

Anne has helped me tremendously especially with my relationship to pain. The Somatic Tracking and Body Reassurance audios really helped expose me to pain in a more kind and compassionate way. It helped reassure my brain that everything was OK and nothing to worry about.

The pain has subsided dramatically and feel my relationship with pain has changed. Instead of fear, I accept it with a lot more patience, kindness and understanding.

I would definitely recommend Anne to others.

I was in a horrendous cycle of my ankle having a really low tolerance of pain and a low pain threshold too which caused my brain to overreact. My new-found ability to reprogramme and reinterpret the pain signals has made a massive difference—the muscles no longer panic and tighten for weeks on end. I can apply the same thought processes and strategies to the nerve pain which reduces its impact and helps flares to resolve more quickly.

Anne was really patient, answering my endless questions and encouraging me when I had doubts in my abilities early on. I would absolutely recommend working with her to address chronic pain. Sessions also brought additional benefits of feeling a lot more calm and optimistic too.

The worksheets and audio files were also really helpful and very easy to use! I listen to my Recovery Blueprint often as well as the chronic pain sleeping audio.

I had hyperemesis during my pregnancy and it left me traumatised. Annie really listened to the specifics of my concerns and tailored hypnosis recordings addressing each of these in great detail. I have managed to keep the sickness at bay and can now even eat during my chemotherapy schedule.

It has honestly been life changing and helped me cope with this challenge so much more. We also did some visualising around breaking down the cancer and healing which has helped me and my recent scans have shown some positive progress. Thank you and I will be back for more when I feel I need it.

I felt hugely supported, reassured, and our sessions were more joyful than I anticipated, which also improved my mood! I feel great. I am sleeping really well now and my whole system feels calm.

I no longer feel that I am someone who has a ‘pain’ problem. I am getting so much more done, now I am not nursing myself with hot water bottles! And if/when pain flares, I feel that I have all the tools to manage it.

I feel that I am now in control of my health, and this is huge for me after many bad experiences with consultants who have never understood what was really going on. Without a doubt, Anne has been a wonderful coach in getting me to empower myself. I would highly recommend this approach, and Anne: no better person to help you.

Working with Anne has made a huge difference and my progress has been immense. The sessions were sequenced just right, and I really looked forward to our weekly meetings, which were tailored to my needs with the time to air my worries, thoughts and concerns.

The Recovery Blueprint hypnotherapy session was a particularly pleasant experience and effective. Anne has given me the tools, and most of all, the belief and re-assurance that I can reach my goal. I would definitely recommend Anne to others and I am so glad I made that initial contact.

For years I had been suffering from chronic tinnitus and often felt powerless in its grip. I now appreciate how powerful and beneficial Pain Reprocessing Therapy can be for people like me.

Anne tailored sessions and audios to suit me as an individual; she was always full of encouragement, support, and reassurance which has had a profound effect, in such a good way, on my life and how I view things in general. I now feel calm, positive and in control—I highly recommend working with Anne.

Anne made me feel entirely at ease throughout the whole process. She has a very gentle manner and sincere sense of empathy which made me relax and be completely honest without fear of judgement. I always felt Anne was listening intently and never hurried my responses.

Anne’s soft voice is ideally suited to creating a soothing audio, especially when used before sleep. Having such a positive experience means I would not hesitate to suggest her as a therapist who will offer a supportive role in enabling others to improve their mental heath and wellbeing.

Anne was easy to talk to—I felt she always let me speak and listened to everything. She made the whole process straightforward for me and it worked which I was delighted about!

Having been to therapy before, this was a different, positive and enjoyable approach for me and I gained a lot from the sessions. I feel I have been given tools and ways to help control not just my pain, but my over all wellbeing.

Anne has helped me to conquer my fear  and I am now confident that singing will become an enjoyable part of my life. I have no hesitation in recommending her for help with comparable issues.

Anne recently started with us but is already providing wonderful results with her work! Her results are quick and effective—we have seen first hand how she has helped individuals at WICCI.
