Therapy - Testimonials |

Woman with overwhelming fear of death |
|
This message was received as a handwritten note from a woman who attended the Wiltshire Human Givens Centre for just two sessions. I would recommend this help to all. It has given me more freedom in life and I am now in control and don't have to have bad feelings about anything any more. Life is better than it has ever been. It is also helping my family as I am calmer with them. Thank you. Bless you. PS. You may use this in any way you like |
Woman with obsessive anxiety for her child's health |
|
This testimonial was delivered as a signed, hand written letter. The course of treatment was longer than usual - a total of nine sessions over ten weeks, but throughout the course of treatment the woman valued the help she was receiving and wanted to continue until she had reached her goals. At the end of the treatment she reported benefits from the therapy in the following areas: 1) personal insight/understanding, 2) expression of feelings/problems, 3) exploration of feelings/problems, 4) coping strategies/techniques, 5) access to practical help, 6) control/planning/decision making, 7) subjective well-being, 8) symptoms, 9) day to day functioning and 10) personal relationships. Here is what she wrote: After my first conversation with Alec, I instinctively knew that his approach would help me. By helping me to understand my behaviour and giving me the answers and guidance that I needed, Alec has helped clear my mind and move forward. Most importantly (for me) Alec has given me the confidence to realise that I have great qualities and I'm actually quite proud of what I have achieved. If anyone I know needs help in the future I will recommend the Human Givens Centre to help change their lives too. |
Previously suicidal client suffering from depression |
|
It would be my pleasure to give you a testimonial for your web site, I'm no Ernest Hemingway, but here goes: "I was give a pamphlet for 'alendi' by Occupational Health at work….. Alec was like a breath of fresh air, didn't want to know how I felt about "my father", "my past", "my first pet" or "first girlfriend", I was instantly at ease, I have goose bumps now as I think about it. Alec's technique was like nothing I had experienced in the previous 6 or 7 months since taking enough pills to cure all the hangovers in a small town. I was shown how to relax, how to recover and repair, deal with the pain when I wanted to instead of being crushed under the weight of it. 5 months on I am back at work and applying for a Managerial position, relaxed, confident and happy, but more importantly able to deal with all the rubbish that life dumps on you, without letting it build up until it is too big to even consider, let alone, put right. 5 sessions with Alec turned my life around, he saved my life and gave it back to me, only better. Part of the technique rids me of my daily burdens and puts me to sleep at night, (or when ever I feel like a quick nap!) please don't despair, the pit is surprisingly shallow, confusion doesn't reign, try alendi, if you are like I was 12 months ago you have nothing to loose and everything to gain." Alec, I can't really do you justice in 50 words, sorry. Please feel free to use all, part or none of the above in anyway you deem fit, you can put my first name on it and county and I would be happy to speak to anyone on the phone or by mail if it means they may come to you for help. Thank you once again and I'll never forget what you have done for me. Tim, Oxfordshire |

Young woman with spider phobia since teenage years |
|
This is taken from an email from the woman in the spider phobia video - four years after the treatment. The fear of spiders she had since the age of 14/15 years was removed permanently in a single Human Givens session held in 2003. "Most importantly I think to point out is that IT WORKS, I had been afraid of spiders (photos, drawings, cartoons not to mention the real thing) for as long as I could remember, it was becoming debilitating. I had found my self unable to go into my own home because I had seen a spider the night before which no one could find and dispose of and worst of all I was passing the fear on to my children, so when I was offered Human Givens therapy I was skeptical, but willing to try anything that could help, (I had already tried psychotherapy without success). I met with Alec with as open mind as possible. The success was remarkable . . . . . At the beginning of the session there was no way I would even sit in the same room as a spider, even if it was in a jar AT THE OTHER END OF THE ROOM !!!! However by the end of the session I was holding a jar in my hand watching the spider in the jar. It was probably the most liberating thing I had experienced. I now go into the insect house at the Cotswold Wildlife Park. I can actually pick up a spider and put it out. Don't get me wrong I don't like spiders but I no longer have to cry and run when I see a tiny house spider - which is fantastic !!!!! Try it !!!" |
Man in 40's overcoming a disturbing experience |
|
This client had been disturbed by an unusual experience two years previously and which had been present in his thoughts every single day since. A single session removed the automatic emotional impact from the experience, helped to give the client a clearer picture of the events and since the session he reports feeling happier and generally more positive. I met Alec Stansfield ....(deleted for reasons of confidentiality - Ed). Through general conversation he expressed an interest in a unique and troubling experience that had been with me since 2005. He suggested some professional guidance may be of help to me. I spent an hour and a half with Alec "in the chair". At all times I felt completely confident and relaxed about opening up and dealing with the subject. He is a complete professional and the method of discussion used, lead to a very positive result in terms of understanding and boxing the subject for the future. I would highly recommend Alec's passive, verbal methods and techniques. Aline this with his sincere and genuine character, I had no concerns about trusting his help and advice. |
