Anxiety
Anxiety can affect anyone. It can start at any time and affect all ages, genders, types of people.
It can also be relieved and solved with the right support.
Anxiety
can show up in many different ways. This could be in the way people think, speak or behave. It can also affect what they believe about themselves or the world. Sometimes anxiety can stem from a specific event or trauma, which can have a negative impact. This can create a specific phobia or it can become general anxiety.
I work with you to unpick where the anxiety stems from. It could have been a learnt fear picked up in childhood. It can also come from the culture or time we grew up in. Anxious feelings can grow over time.
Agoraphobia used to be thought of thought of as a fear of public places. In fact it can be a general fear of any unfamiliar or new event or place.
This type of anxiety can be the result of an accumulation of events where the brain perceives a threat. Of course, anxiety can stem from a single one-off event too. The threatening event can have a huge negative emotional impact. This can make doing new things feel frightening. Sometimes anxious feelings can creep into the things we have done for years.
Panic attacks may be part of the experience.
Symptoms of anxiety may include:
- Negative thinking
- Obsessive worrying
- Continually second-guessing what will happen next
- Physical symptoms – racing heart, sweaty palms, feeling faint
- Overwhelming sense of fear
- Feeling out of control
- Making a 'mountain out of a molehill'
- Panic attacks
GAD Generalised Anxiety Disorder
When we feel anxious, we are going into a trance state. This means that instead of thinking how we normally do, we have an anxious filter on.
This could include negative phrases or images in your mind. It's likely that you also have unpleasant physical symptoms. For some people the experience of anxiety can be excessive and persistent. This is sometimes diagnosed as GAD - Generalised Anxiety Disorder. The longer you are in this trance state, the more distressing and debilitating the anxiety is likely to b In some cases these feelings can result in a panic attack.

Our sessions will consist partly of conversational work. Here we are working on a conscious level to understand what’s going on and why. We will also work at an unconscious level with hypnosis. I record the hypnosis part of the sessions for you to listen to afterwards.
As each client is an individual, I write and record bespoke hypnosis recordings for each person.
One happy client said:
The hypnosis recordings have given me with a more positive mindset. I am now more optimistic in my outlook. I am also a lot more focused on the future. I love the recordings and how they are so personal to me. The relaxation techniques Zeenat taught me brought me a sense of calm and I am now able to differentiate when I am actually experiencing the stress response, and how to counter it. Each appointment gave me a deeper insight into the anxiety and how I can my mind healthy. I feel like a different person now, and I am so relieved. Finally I can start living my life again!

Another happy client said:
I had been suffering with crippling anxiety attacks and feeling depressed before key social and family events. The attacks became so debilitating that they would effect my ability to function at work. Knowing this was all psychosomatic, and wanting to lead a normal life, I decided I had to deal with the issue. I contacted Zeenat and started to attend regular sessions to understand the reasons for my irrational reaction and learn techniques on how to reprogram my perception and reaction to situations. Early on I felt a change in my ability to deal with an important up coming event and by the time it arrived I was confident relaxed and in control. I can not tell you what a relief it was and what a change it has made to my life. If I had not seen Zeenat I would still be looking for excuses not to attend events feeling like my life was passing me by and that I was missing out on spending time with the people I love. As ridiculous and as embarrassing as the situation was to me, Zeenat always dealt with me in a warm non judgemental and professional manner. I strongly recommend to anyone who is suffering with anxiety, no matter what your triggers are, don't keep living a half life and book an appointment.
