Testimonials

Alcohol

"I went to Shelley as I found myself wanting to have a drink most nights. It was not nice waking up the next morning feeling hungover and I also wasn't motivated to do any form of exercise and was putting on weight. I didn't want to give up drinking altogether, only from Sundays to Thursdays as I enjoy having a few drinks with my friends and still wanted to socialise. After one session with Shelley I found I didn't even think about having a drink until Thursday. I also started walking everyday and I am so happy as I have lost a lot of weight and feel like a new person. I have also gone back to painting pictures, which used to be a great passion of mine before I started drinking too much. Thanks to Shelley I am a changed woman and love my new life. "

Alcohol

"I had opened up to my family that I was an alcoholic as I needed to drink a bottle of wine every night. This drink problem had been going on for about 15 years. I was very depressed and ruining my family life and my marriage.

I contacted Shelley and after two sessions have never thought about drinking alcohol again. To this day that was 19 months ago.

I am able to socialise in bars, restaurants, at bbq’s etc and only drink soft drinks and never think of drinking alcohol.

My new life is fantastic and my family are happy and content.

Shelley is worth taking that brave step to owning up to having a dependency on alcohol, which can be corrected by Shelley"

John - Manawatu, New Zealand

Alcohol & Coffee

"I went to see Shelley a few months ago because I found myself drinking too much alcohol during the week. I was drinking three times during the week and some work days were geting unbearable. I was sick of feeling tired all day and sometimes nauseous. Since going to Shelley I still have not had a single drink during the week and only drink up to six each night of the weekend (which is what I asked for). I was over being hungover during the weekend as well and then having to go through another week at work just do do it all again. It worked for me in only one session but can sometimes take up to five. When I went back for the second appointment I felt I didn't need another session on alcohol so I changed the subject and asked if I could stop drinking coffee - I used to drink upto seven cups a day. Since this appointment I have not had a single cup of coffee so thanks a lot. It has enabled me to stop two habits that I was never able to break and the best part is I don't feel like alcohol during the week or drinking coffee so its no willpower on my part "

Anger

"My life had started to hit many problems. I was unconsciously creating blockages, which were stopping me from moving forward, and my family was feeling the effects of this. It was time for me to seek help for my anger issues, and my inability to express my true inner feelings, which caused even greater troubles inside my head. I always thought there was hype around hypnotherapy, the whole wake up one morning looking for your belly button, but it wasn’t like that at all and it wasn’t till I actually went through the process that I let go of that stigma.

I had called numerous therapists, Mental Health, counsellors, pulse therapists and they all stated that my care could take up to one year. I wanted to tackle my problems head on, so when I visited Shelley at her place of work and she roughly estimated no more than four sessions, I decided that hypnotherapy was the way I was going to correct my problems.

I found Shelley very calming and professional and she made me feel very comfortable while in her care. The whole process was great, it was relaxing and inexpensive. Since my therapy, family and I have never been any happier. All the blockages that I was putting in front of us have now been released and I am a more balanced person on the inside and out. We have recently moved to Australia for start a fresh. My life and my family’s life are now flowing.

Anxiety & Phobia

"I appreciated Shelley’s calm, relaxed and respectful manner - she provides information about the process and the actual experience of hypnotherapy in a very professional way. I recommend contacting Shelley for help managing anxiety and phobias."

Janet - Wanganui, New Zealand

Bird Phobia

"Dear Shelley,

I cannot believe the change in my life since I have come to see you about my phobia. I have gone from shaking with fear, sweating and stressing to the point of vomiting to feeling totally happy in the presence of birds. I used to dread going to public eating places such as outdoor cafes and picnics but thanks to the sessions with you I feel totally relaxed and calm when confronted with these situations. All of my friends and family are amazed with the change in confidence and can't believe that it was only a few months ago that I was cowering in fear with my phobia.

Yesterday I tried the ultimate test, my husband and I took our children to the Katikati Bird Gardens - a place which I would never step foot in prior to our sessions - and there were at least 50 birds surrounding us and squawking for food. I happily fed them out of my hand and had birds flying and running around past us. It didn't bother me in the slightest! The children kept asking me if I was ok and I was so happy to tell them that I was!

I will never forget what you have done for me and I have raved about you to all who will listen. My sessions with you were worth every cent - you have changed my life and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this as a solution to many problems.

Thank you most sincerely."

Juleen - Tauranga, New Zealand

Confidence

"It's very hard to admit to yourself that you need to talk to someone who is not a friend or family member in order to a deal with an issue that's been hanging round your neck. Once you have made that hard choice I don't think you could ask be in more professional hands than Miss Burnette. Miss Burnette made me feel comfortable and dealt with me in a patient, confidential and caring manner. I was a little sceptical at first but it did help me to deal with my issues and I am happier and better person for it."

Nigel - London, England

Confidence & Weight Loss

"Dear Shelley,

I came to you last year and had 3 sessions to help me with my weight problem and my lack of confidence. I just wanted to let you know that my eating habits have totally changed, my personality has been brought out and uplifted no end and I am a much happier (and lighter!) person! I have lost 18Kgs, I feel so positive about going outside and doing exercise and it has truly changed my life!

So, I owe you a huge "Thank you"! It has been a lifestyle change rather than a quick temporary fix, and it is this that I am most thankful for, it is over a year since I saw you and I continue to feel better and healthier everyday. Every time I see a snack or something I would have normally indulged in, I now just immediately think of the therapy and instantly walk away without any craving or wanting for it. I look forward to continuing my life this way. Thank you so very much!"

Lauren – Tauranga, New Zealand

Dancing Nerves

"I thank you so much for your help in getting me to where I was on Saturday. I had a few little butterflies in my stomach as you knew I would but nothing like I have experienced before. On one occasion I had slightly sweaty hands but it came to nothing.   I was positive and did as you suggested. I remembered the dance routines and we had a very successful day. So once again Thank you very much for your help." 

John - Wanganui, New Zealand

Dog and Cat Phobia

"My 12 year old daughter had an ongoing phobia with dogs and cats. She couldn’t even get out of a car at family or friends houses if they had pets. After one treatment with Shelley the confidence was showing. As we had recently adopted a dog it was a good chance to see the results. The first few days Vicki was slowly getting closer to feeding and taking her for walks! Still a bit worried about cats Shelley gave Vicki a back-up session. Well now Vicki is a much happy, confident young lady, as a family we all highly recommend hypnotherapy with Shelley."

Megan - Wanganui, New Zealand

Driving Phobia

"Having had a phobia about driving for over 20 years, and not driven for eight or so, I could feel the pressure from my family that I needed to get back behind the wheel to do my part in taxiing kids to and fro. I saw Shelley's ad in the local paper and thought I'd give her a call to see if she could help. With Shelley’s sessions I was back behind the wheel.  My husband was so pleased with the results he bought me a car and now he's complaining he never sees me! Although not every day is perfect, I recall the advice she gave me and work through as I go. Previously I would have pulled to the side of the road, or worse still, completely refused to drive. Her therapy has been a major positive in my life - My husband's happier as he now has help in getting kids out and about and so am I as I have my life back. Next visit will be to give up smoking - a 30 year habit!"

Mel - Wanganui, New Zealand

Exams

"I came to see Shelley as I got very nervous when being assessed in practical exams.  Even though I knew all the information I found it hard to get the information out.  After I finished qualifying as a beauty therapist I wanted to sit my international exam, I was not doing very well in the pre exams that they put us through so a friend suggested I visit Shelley.  I found Shelley to be very professional and understanding and most importantly she has given me confidence to deal with my problem.   I not only passed but tied with another student to get the top practical points and got one of the top awards."

Linda - Tauranga, New Zealand

Fear of Flying

"I had had a fear of flying ever since I could remember and was sick of it. I was living in London and my partner and I were always traveling and the phobia was becoming worse and worse, so I decided to give hypnotherapy a try. After three sessions with Shelley I was feeling much better about the thought of flying and was amazed that when I did fly, I was no longer afraid! I am so pleased to have overcome this problem and am forever grateful to Shelley for helping me get there. Now I am able to 100% enjoy the experience of going away."

Marie - Auckland, New Zealand

Gambling

"From now on I will tell everybody about the time my husband and I were blinded by greed.

At first it was just entertainment and fun. We used to go to casinos after we sold our business 15 years ago. We had some money to spare and we started travelling.

All the beautiful places we went to also had big casinos and it was after a day sightseeing we would have some fun in the evenings and spend. The first couple of years we were often lucky and won substantial jackpots and even a car. That was over two years ago.

Since then we have became less and less careful and would go on more and more expensive machines.

We had already lost a lot of money but because we were addicted we went back thinking we could win some of it back.

We were at the stage that we wanted to give up but when I suggested we need help my husband told me that we had to beat it ourselves. I think it was his pride that stopped him agreeing with me. We were in denial. We had never had a mortgage before, but because of the gambling we now had an $85,000 one and that really hurt.

Four month ago I was so upset and crying and told my husband that we should go for some help. I looked in the phonebook and my eye fell on Shelley Burnette’s name. I insisted to my husband to let me go and he agreed.

Meeting Shelley gave me a lot of confidence. She was so calm and understood my problem. She did not condemn me and talked everything over first and explained how hypnosis works. I was already completely relaxed before she even started the hypnosis. Even after the first session I felt stronger.

I saw Shelley a couple of times and I talked to my husband after every session. Incredibly we are now both strong and happy and have no urge to gamble anymore. We now see casinos as the devils house and we no longer belong there.

We thank Shelley for bringing happiness back into our lives. Her professional approach is phenomenal and we recommend her to anyone who has some sort of addiction.

All the best to all of you and above all THANK YOU SHELLEY!!!"

Insomnia

"I suffered from insomnia most of my adult life and tried various treatment with no success.  I assumed it was too be a chronic condition.  I decided to try hypnotherapy with Shelley Burnette, with low expectations of success.  However after one session with Shelley, I was pleasantly surprised.  I enjoyed deep sleep for the first time in decades.  A couple of follow up sessions have left me relaxed and optimistic.  If you have insomnia, I enthusiastically recommend a course of therapy with Shelley Burnette."

Kate - Wanganui, New Zealand

Motivation

"For as long as I can remember I have loved to exercise whether it is walking for miles outside or lifting weights in the gym. It is just what I do. What makes me " ME " I love the sense of freedom I get when I exercise , of feeling strong both mentally and physically feeling I can face lifes hurdles, good and bad.

Just happy being me. However the new year did not get off to a good start and I totally lost sight of "me". Big Time! A very negative "why bother " attitude took hold My training came to a grinding halt, my food choices went from healthy to unhealthy consequently my confident feel good approach to life took a nose dive. Everything seemed tooooo hard. I knew I had to get control again but didnt quite know how . I have to admit that was rather scarey.

Then I found Shelley, almost by accident. What a great visit I had with her. Needless to say I am back training again, better than ever. My food choices back to healthy again. I am feeling fit and healthy , energetic and confident, ready to take on lifes challenges once again And, most important, I like me again Thank you Shelley, you made this so easy and I know if I have a little downward slide you are right there for me again. Great!

Melissa - Tauranga, New Zealand

Needle Phobia

"I just want to say thank you so much for the course of hypnotherapy I had with you a while back for my fear of needles. My partner and I really wanted to proceed with IVF treatment to enable us to have a chance of having a family, however due to the nature of the IVF treatment it meant I had to inject myself with hormone drugs over a course of a few weeks. My intense fear of needles was preventing this. After three sessions with yourself I had the confidence to go ahead with my treatment and proceed. I was injecting myself up to three times a day for a few weeks, and now am 16 weeks pregnant with twins!

We are both very grateful to you for giving us this opportunity and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this course of action for anyone in the same position.

Thanks again."

Vicky - Tauranga, New Zealand

Overeating

"I engaged Shelley's services as a last resort to resolve a serious overeating disorder I had endured since childhood. I had never been hypnotised but was willing to give anything a try.

From the very first session with Shelley the difference in my thought patterns was extraordinary. It felt like my 'wiring' had been reset so that I no longer obsessed about food and did not have the desire to over eat. After battling and trying to overcome this problem my entire life with various other therapy options, I can honestly say that hypnotherapy was the most effective option for me. After only three sessions with Shelley, I feel that overeating is in my past and I am truly grateful for that.

During my sessions, I found Shelley to be highly professional with a genuinely kind and compassionate manner."

Nicole - Mount Maunganui, New Zealand

Public Speaking

"I decided to be proactive and seek help to reduce my fear of public speaking; it was impacting my career development and made some social situations difficult to manage. Typical symptoms were increased heart rate, physically shaking, and simply being unable to properly control my nerves. After three hypnotherapy sessions with Shelley, we found the cause of the issue and dealt with problem. I no longer see public speaking as a barrier or an issue of concern. I recently spoke at a friends wedding in front of 120 guests, it went very well and proved to me that hypnotherapy actually works."

Matthew - Wellington, New Zealand 

Relationship

"Most people have had moments in relationships when they don’t know what’s going on and how to handle the situation at hand – I’m one of those people.

For most of 2008 I spent my time (and I mean all my time), wondering why my relationship which begun at the end of 2006 had tipped over and what I could do to restore it to it’s former glory. I had tried everything from just enjoying the nice moments to completely ignoring any contact when received. However my mind was pretty consumed so ‘even forgetting about it’ was a conscious effort. I was constantly reverting to the ‘whys and what’s ifs’ of the relationship – and it didn’t help that Mr was still contacting me, but in a non-committal, non-apologetic “good-times” only kind of way.

Although I maintained my dignity the possibility that ‘this time could be the time we actually got back together’ could at times cloud my judgment – we live and learn! Over the months I had realized that it’s not about him, it’s about me and what I want and if he’s not going to give it than he’s obviously not “Mr Right” after all. What was tripping me up was that I was still had feelings for him so I was constantly justifying why I should respond to his approaches and invitations rather than accepting that I shouldn’t; not to mention my concentration span was shot. It’s one thing to not respond but to not even think about it is quite another – herewithin lies the major issue and is what brought me to Shelley.

I needed to ‘set this bird free’ and if it comes back it was meant to be mine and if not then get on with my life. To back up my ‘moving-on, talk to the hand’ strategy I needed the automatic ability to block out the approaches from Mr, with speed and lack of analysis, even thought.

After my hypno-session with Shelley I’ve been able to do this. I’ve backhanded his approaches and not made any attempt to conjure up an epiphany from him - I’m truly empowered by my steadfast belief that ‘it’s all about me’ and that unless concrete actions are made on his part there is no point.

I know I don’t need to think about it because if it’s going to happen I’ll find out about it so my concentration has improved dramatically – it’s not like I could hone in on Mr’s brainwaves anyway and make him change his actions!! Thereby, I’m no longer plagued with wondering thoughts - I’m finally able to read novels again! I'm more fulfilled with the time spent with my family and friends and I’m fully focused at work and at the gym, enabling me to achieve great things at quicker speed.

I no longer take part in random sessions of cupboard love, my sleep pattern has normalized and I’m no longer experiencing bouts of anxiety from the uncertainty surrounding Mr. I’ve also had a few other unexpected events come my way. I’ve found I’m automatically responding with this new attitude and I’d credit this to the hypnotherapy instilling life-enriching skills into my everyday psyche.

Overall, I’m so happy to finally be restored to my former glory!  My outlook is positive and relaxed. I’m comforted in knowing that if Mr and I get back together one day it’s because he’s going to give me exactly what I’m looking for from a relationship. If we don’t and when I meet someone else the same outlook will apply to the new Mr.

I definitely recommend hypnotherapy with Shelley as an excellent way to let go of whatever it is that's holding you back from a bigger and better life."

Stop Smoking

“I have been smoke free for over four years with the help of Shelley and Hypnosis.  I was a very heavy smoker, smoking a packet a day for eight years, after just one session, I completely stopped, I no longer craved cigarettes.  I got my sense of smell and taste back and I didn’t put on weight.  Hypnotherapy gave me my life back. Shelley is a professional and caring hypnotherapist and I would recommend her to anyone looking to stop smoking.” 

Angela - Melbourne, Australia

Stop Smoking

"I have stopped smoking for three years now thanks to Shelley.  I am fitter, healthier, more motivated, have more money in my pocket and feel much better.  I would recommend hypnotherapy to anyone." 

Jeremy - Wanganui, New Zealand

Stop Smoking

"I don’t desire to have a smoke anymore. I got sick of waking up with a dirty taste in my mouth.  I thought I could do it on my own but I couldn’t. I saw an advert, came along to Shelley and that was it. I now have so much more energy."

Pam (a smoker for 52 years) - Wanganui, New Zealand

Stop Smoking

"I actually can't believe that I used to be a smoker, it kind of seems like that was someone else. I don't even remember the last time I had a cigarette. What Shelley managed to do for me is stop me smoking dead in my tracks. One day I just stopped and ever since then it 's been great. If your like me and your into your fitness then you'll see a massive difference in the months after you stopped. You also get your sense of taste and smell back to. It's one the best things I've ever done for my body and would recommend it to anyone."

Ed - London, England

Stop Smoking

"I'm doing very well, not one smoke since the session. When I see someone smoking the thought enters my mind but it disappears as quickly and I don't have a craving for it. I would never have believed it could work so well."

Leta - Wanganui, New Zealand

Stop Smoking

"I had my first cigarette at the age of 13 and smoked constantly (at least 10 smokes a day) till the age of 28, until I was hypnotised by Shelley Burnette in 2005.

From that 1 hour session, the effect was instant, the urge and cravings were removed.  I even broke my nearly full  packet of cigarettes in half and threw them away - something I never would have considered doing!

I stopped smoking for over a year and saved heaps of money.  I decided to try a cigarette again one night and didn't enjoy it at all,  but as any smoker knows it's not so much the taste but the habit, especially when drinking. After that I had a few more but was bothered by my lack of control.

I rang Shelley and she booked me straight in for a follow up treatment. This was the best thing I have ever done.  Shelley was understanding, caring and determined to help me kick my habit.

Whilst under hypnosis she replaced my urges and cravings with more constructive, healthy and positive suggestions.  It's hard to believe that this is possible, I was overweight, ate badly and very rarely exercised, but within a week of the first treatment I joined a gym and now love going. I have lost 15 kg so far and I'm still losing!

I have a more positive outlook on life now.  I am more motivated, feel healthier and have a drive I never knew was in me, but best of all I have never had another cigarette, nor do I want to.

I know, thanks to Shelley, I have well and truly kicked my habit and am on a path to a much better happier and healthier life.

I have recommended many people to Shelley and they have all had amazing results, and I will continue to do so as I am so happy with my new lease on life and want others to share in the feeling.

Thank you Shelley, I am forever grateful."

Kate - Brisbane, Australia

Stress

"I came to see Shelley as I had been feeling stressed for many years, even when there wasn't anything to be stressed about!   Shelley got to the root of the problem and I am now rid of all the stress and tension that plagued me for so long.  I really feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and am now in control of my feelings and my life."

Vomiting Phobia

Hi Shelley,

My name is Lynne from Wanganui, and I just wanted to give you 
some feedback.

Some years ago, before you left to live in Papamoa, I had several 
sessions with you for a phobia about vomiting.

I'd not been put to the test till 7 weeks ago when our Mum became ill 
and I've had to frequent hospitals and now a rest home where she 
currently lives. Vomiting has been a fairly frequent occurrence for my 
Mum and others around her. Not only that, but patients around Mum with 
smoking related lung problems has them coughing till they vomit.

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!
I cannot believe how much your hypnotherapy has changed my attitude 
and my previous gut wrenching, horrendously panic stricken, physical 
response to those situations I found myself in. I thought the time 
lapse would have somehow rendered your work ineffective, and I've 
wondered over the years how I would react when put to the test.

Excitedly, my insides don't turn giant summersaults anymore, which 
previously would have had me looking for a toilet or a bowl myself - 
though I do feel anxious, which everybody tells me is normal. I don't 
panic and run away like I used to, though I still don't like being 
there when it's happening, but I can actually physically remain there 
or thereabouts. My insides amazingly remain relatively calm and I can 
manage myself heaps better so that I can help our Mum or find someone 
else to assist her. I find I can be in the present moment with a much 
better inner strength and I use the technique you taught me - finger 
and thumb together, deep breathing whilst focussing on the point of 
positive strength that I decided to use in those times.

So, Shelley, my thanks again for being a life saver and helping me to 
regain some semblance of humanity by being able to respond in these 
situations with a more compassionate feel for people which is what I 
so dearly wanted. I'm not perfect yet by any means, but I am getting 
better and I hope to improve even further if I can.

Warm regards


Lynne

Weight Loss

"I am not resorting to so much comfort eating and I am losing weight steadily so am feeling better too.  Somehow I feel alot lighter emotionally and am managing to get more into my day than before." 

Pam - Palmerston North, New Zealand

Weight Loss

"For most of my adult life I have struggled with being overweight, carrying about 10-15kg excess weight. My main struggle has been with emotional eating. As much as I hated being overweight, there was something in my brain that always drove me to eat the wrong things so that I couldn’t lose weight, or if I lost weight it wouldn’t be too long before I was back to my old way of eating, self control had disappeared and my weight would soon be back to where it had started. I would eat when I was sad, angry, bored, upset, all the negative emotions, even when I was happy because it felt good.

I was more of a nibbler than a huge eater. My main problem was anything sweet which I loved to snack on in between meals. Every time I went to the supermarket, I would be drawn like a magnet to the baked goodies at the bakery section. Some of the time I was able to exercise sufficient self control to stop myself buying anything, and after standing and drooling over all the cakes and slices for a few minutes I would walk on again. When I did buy something I would secretly eat it in my car before going home and hide the packaging in my handbag so that nobody knew about it. I would do the same thing with a bar of chocolate. Or I would hide it and eat it when I was all alone at home as I was ashamed of my lack of self control.

I had read just about every diet book imaginable, including the ones on eating a healthy, well balanced diet, the Low GI/Low GL ones, the ones which outlined the health risks attached to being overweight, and I knew it all, I just couldn’t put it into practice. I had developed a degenerative back problem in recent months, after x-rays my doctor had told me that the best way to avoid surgery was to keep my weight down and my torso strength up. I now had a much more pressing reason to lose weight. But even that didn’t give me sufficient motivation to stop eating the wrong foods in order to lose weight. I was very frustrated with myself and desperate by the time I saw Shelley Burnette’s advertorial in the local newspaper. I had often wanted to try hypnotherapy in the past but I was apprehensive as I didn’t understand much about it. I always used to say that nobody would ever be able to hypnotise me as I’m too strong willed.

I gave it some thought and eventually decided to phone for an appointment. Shelley explained briefly on the phone how the sessions with her would work and I was happy to make an appointment to see her. She explained very clearly at the first session what she would be doing, how it works and what I could expect, and she completely put my mind at rest

The following day I had to go to the supermarket and I was amazed to find that when I walked past the bakery section, my eyes flicked across the baked goodies and immediately looked away, it was just as disinteresting to me as if it were dog food. I had to go to the supermarket again a couple of days later and I found my reaction was exactly the same. I was delighted to say the least. I couldn’t believe that I was getting such good results so soon. I found that my emotional eating had completely gone already. That first week I lost 1kg without even trying or thinking about it. All my knowledge of eating correctly was becoming automatic without feeling deprived in any way. I had a second session with Shelley, when she reinforced all the positive suggestions that she had given me the first time.

It is now several weeks since that first appointment and I am continuing to lose weight slowly and steadily, without feeling like I’m on a diet or having to exercise self control, it’s all so easy now. I feel so much better about and within myself, my clothes fit better and I’m still totally disinterested in junk food. I find it so easy to eat healthily and not to overeat and I can see that this will be my lifestyle for the rest of my life. I am now able to enjoy an occasional treat without it leading to a huge binge as was previously the case.

This has definitely been a turning point in my life. For years I had dreamed of living like this, with thoughts of food and eating not dominating my life. I had almost given up hope of ever being in control of my eating habits and getting rid of my excess weight. I know now that I will never binge on junk food again, nor will I ever have an emotional eating problem again. I’m totally delighted with the results and I can highly recommend Shelley Burnette and hypnotherapy."
