Ian Murton Hypnotherapy - Hitchin

Sophie W.

When I came to Ian, my driving anxiety after a car accident was completely consuming and overwhelming. It was completely taking over my life. I had resorted to taking back roads, avoiding dual-carriageways and motorways, and panic attacks before and during journeys were becoming the new normal. I had even tried herbal supplements and medication from my GP to no avail.
I was completely desperate and thankfully I came across Ian online and got in touch, and immediately upon meeting him he put me at ease and assured me that this was something that could easily be solved. Through hypnotherapy and finding new ways to challenge my anxieties, I genuinely feel like a brand new person! I’m able to drive a lot more comfortably, I’ve driven to places I haven’t been in years and I’ve started braving dual-carriageways and bad weather again, and my driving anxiety no longer controls my life.
I cannot recommend Ian enough, I genuinely feel like he has saved my life! He really helped me to rationalise things, taught me valuable coping skills and I feel like a calmer person in general, not just in terms of driving.
I will miss our catch ups and our laughs but boy, am I glad to leave driving anxiety behind!
Thank you so much Ian!!

After 6 years of avoiding Motorways I decided enough was enough.
I found Ian online, hoped the reviews were genuine and that this process would work over zoom rather than in person.
Nearly 600 miles and 4 motorways later, I'm happy to confirm that Ian really can deliver what he promises!
I am so grateful to Ian for opening up my horizons again, I no longer have to plan long journeys via A roads, or log on to Trainline to work out how many changes it will take me to reach my destination.
Even with a loaded car and weather warnings in place I was totally relaxed, calm and confident.
I can't recommend Ian highly enough, if you're reading this review and thinking about whether or not to go for it don't hesitate!

Learning to drive was a long and difficult journey for me because of anxiety. I started taking lessons at 18 but kept stopping and starting over the years. I changed instructors multiple times, practised in different locations and failed my driving test 7 times. Each failure was devastating, adding to the pressure and making it harder to continue. I took a long break but didn't want to give up completely. At 34, I started lessons again, only to face the same anxiety issues such as hesitation, overwhelm, reckless mistakes and fear of failing another test.

Desperate to overcome my anxiety, I decided to try hypnotherapy with Ian. After just one session, I noticed a difference. With each session, my confidence grew. Ian genuinely cared about my progress. He messaged me after driving lessons to ask how they went and provided tools to manage my anxiety and become more positive. It also helped other areas of my life, lifting the emotional weight I had carried for years and making me feel happier.

I'm happy to say that on my 8th attempt, I finally passed my driving test! I couldn't have done it without Ian. He's a lovely, supportive guy who was a pleasure to spend time with. If you're struggling with driving anxiety, I highly recommend Ian's Hypnotherapy. It changed my life. Thank you!

I have been struggling with some issues for some time now and was really eager to try hypnotherapy to see if it would help me. I was recommended by so many people to try Ian murton and I'm so happy I did and grateful to have found him. I can feel anxious around new people but Ian is such a calm and relaxed person that I instantly felt I could just be myself. I have had a few sessions now on emotional detox and trying to release past traumas that I have not really dealt with from the past and was keeping me from moving forward. After my first session I felt so much lighter and on my second I felt a huge shift in my negative emotions and felt like I released so much and was able to think clearer and feel so much more calmer. I have been working with Ian to help with my social anxiety also because I struggle to relax around people and when I come out of hypnosis it's like my anxiety has just been lifted out of me and I feel like situations that make me nervous don't seem to bother me anymore. I now seem to be much more relaxed around people and I don't feel the need to run anymore as I used to also get alot of physical symptoms but now I am just much more relaxed. Thanks to Ian I have managed to release so much of my past trauma that I didn't even know I was holding on too and I can finally start to really enjoy my life. Ian is an incredible person, he's kind, caring and I feel like he really listens to you and your needs. If anyone is looking to try hypnotherapy I would definitely recommend Ian, he really does work his magic and in my opinion is very gifted at what he does. Thank you so much for changing my life for the better

I recently visited Ian and to be honest I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. I would consider myself quite the cynic when it comes to hypnosis but all I can say is how wrong I was. This has been a game changing moment in my life. I saw Ian to help me with my confidence and I left after only an hour feeling like a new man. I would highly recommend his services and since my visit haven’t stopped recommending him to everyone I meet. Don’t delay book him up now!!

Through virtual meetings, Ian got me back on the road driving safely and comfortably. I live in the US and went across the pond for some help and found Ian. He knows what he's doing and as a bonus, he's a nice person too. I can now do road trips--something that would not have happened a year ago. Thank you, Ian!

Emotional Detox
I recently had an emotional detox hypnotherapy session with Ian as I’m mid way through active treatment for breast cancer and have suffered with anxiety and insomnia amongst other symptoms. I wasn’t sure what to expect. The hypnotherapy session was conducted at my pace, I felt very comfortable and relaxed throughout in fact barely noticed the time pass during the session. Approximately 48 hrs later I felt a huge weight lifted off my mind and I physically felt a weight lifted off my shoulders in terms of tension and posture. Prior to the session I had felt crippled in terms of completing tasks at home but afterwards I made a start and finished off things I’d put off for months through treatment. I could think clearly and wanted to do things I’d lacked motivation for previously. I would highly recommend consulting with Ian and booking an emotional detox series of sessions.

What an amazing service provided by Ian! Having suffered from a debilitating phobia of dogs since a child, I was feeling trapped and afraid, that I would never get over it. Missing out on so many events for fear of a dog being there. Well with the help of Ian, I am no longer afraid. His calm and thorough approach has changed my life. I finally feel free from fear. Today I visited my sister and her neighbours dog came out to say hello. Where i would have frozen in fear before, today I was calm and able to enjoy the experience and even stroke the dog and give her attention. I never thought that I would be able to do this. I can not thank Ian enough. He is truly here to help people and I would recommend him to anyone who is struggling with a phobia.
