Sarah, Shepherdswell
Julie has been fantastic with my 9 year old son, who has been suffering from panic attacks, due to a traumatic event when he was younger. Julie has taken the time to get to know him in advance of his first session and put him at ease straight away.
During his four sessions Julie combined my sons interests with Hypnotherapy and specific Tapping techniques, this has given us the tools to help in advance and also if necessary, at the time of a panic attack starting. My son says he is pleased he has had Julies help and feels better now he knows how to help himself.
We are so grateful to be able to do so much more with my son, as he can now recognise the feelings he gets before a panic attack. Using the tools we have learnt we can then stop these feelings from escalating. This has given us the freedom to be able to go out as a family again. Not only is this life changing for us all now, but most importantly for my son as he grows up.

Natasha, Maidstone
My experience with Julie has been completely life changing. She has helped me find and develop techniques, coping strategies and ways to manage my anxiety with such positivity and light. It has now become so integrated into my thinking that I do it intuitively most of the time and without even realising. It's in those much less frequent moments of difficulty that I now find it so natural to actively tap into those coping mechanisms and find a way to re-balance. Her approach is really professional yet so personable at the same time and sets up an environment which is completely comfortable. I can't thank or recommend Julie enough for helping me turn a real corner in my life for the better and the long lasting effect it's having.

Molly, Faversham
I have been to see Julie a few times about my driving test, which I have failed a number of times due to anxiety and nerves. I have found her sessions so helpful and learned such important things about managing my stress and looking at things in a more positive way, which I have been able to apply throughout all areas of my life. The hypnotherapy was so useful and really took away my anxiety. I couldn't recommend her enough as I have found it so beneficial and thanks to Julie, I have finally passed my driving test! 

Letitia, Whitstable
I would never have believed how the power of the mind could be so amazing.  I play one or other of the CDs every day if I can and am amazed how well I can now walk without going near paracetamol!  I would recommend hypnosis to anyone in fact I am telling my Dutch friend to find a “Julie” in the Netherlands to help with her hip pain. It is important to embrace the concept which you manage to make one do so easily.

Vicky, Kent
Thank you again for your help with my son, I feel as though he is back to his usual self and coping very well now with further set backs he has had recently.  His optimism has returned and he is now able to verbalise his feelings when he gets frustrated.  He felt he had lost control over his life in general, your approach has helped him regain his happiness on his terms and he feels as though he has done the work to achieve this, rather than having yet another thing being done to him. The process has shown me that rather than dredge up and talk about a traumatic period, for my son at least, accepting what's done is done and focusing more on strategies to deal with such issues appears far more beneficial in the long run. If we need help again, I will not hesitate to contact you and I have already recommended your services to a couple of friends who are considering getting help for themselves or loved ones.

Margaret, Kent
I just wanted to tell you how grateful i am to you for the work you did with my daughter back in June for her fear of flying. She coped amazingly well on our recent flights to and from holiday. I bought a tablet and she downloaded her favorite romcoms and spent the time absorbed in them, the breathing techniques also proved successful. On the way home we were coming in to land when the pilot suddenly had to head up at a 45 degree angle at speed to avoid a problem on the runway and even that didn't bother her!. It has been trans-formative for her and she is now planning trips to The States! Thank you so very much. I also think what you have taught her will be transferable to other stressful situations such as exams. I am very grateful.

Mrs H, Kent
I approached Julie after much research into the best methods available to help my son resolve a number of very serious phobias he has had since a young child. As he was now 15 it was beginning to interfere with his school work, especially Biology and Sports Science, the reason for this was due to his phobias being, blood, bones and the heart. Julie very quickly established herself as his confident and between them they worked together over 6 weeks, working through his very severe reactions he had just even talking about these subjects. The NLP and Hypnosis along with some immediate visualisation processes meant he could see and feel improvements by week 2. He realised by changing his thought process he could overcome the challenges that had been there all his life. He looked forward to each meeting, knowing he was heading towards a worry free life and as a result his confidence grew.  Julie is now a very special person in our lives and our son no longer even remembers what or why bones, blood and the heart ever gave him any issues. Quite frankly, it’s a miracle! 

Hayley, Whitstable
Having  never really spoken to anybody about my anxieties before, instead locking them away and letting them grow I felt very nervous. But straight away I felt relaxed enough to talk in depth and felt reassured that I was going to get the results I longed for, with a mixture of hypnosis and relaxation techniques to use when I felt the anxieties building. In the second session we did regression under hypnosis and I was surprised to find where they had started. But with Julies help I helped settle these memories and lay them to rest and straight away Julie helped me find a sense of release from them. From the very first session I really felt I had started a new reformed more confident life. I felt taller, lighter and so much happier but most importantly I felt in control of my anxiety rather than it controlling me. I feel I have the tools to start taking control. I continue to practice the techniques Julie taught me daily and I now feel I can take on challenges head on, I feel I can remove myself from negativity and think in a more positive way.

​Louisa, Kent
​I can easily say that Julie has helped me to entirely re-shape my life and I cannot thank her enough! I first visited Julie at a particularly difficult time of my life when my confidence and self belief was at an all time low. The combination of Hypnotherapy and NLP was perfect and Julie also provided me with a number of practical tools for handling difficult situations. This covered areas such as better handling my emotions and using them for positive as opposed to self destructive purposes, self belief and, more practically, fear of presenting. I honestly believe that everyone would benefit from hypnotherapy and NLP.

​
Anna, Whitstable
I first started suffering from panic attacks aged 13 at school. From doing presentations to being asked a question, my anxiety around these situations soon escalated and I became very depressed and developed social anxiety disorder. Despite a move to a smaller school and my family's and my best efforts to manage my anxiety and depression, 2 years on I reached the point where good days were very scarce and I would self-sabotage over every conversation I took part in. When I went to see Julie at Time2Shine, she instantly made me comfortable and was extremely sympathetic towards my needs. She taught me Neuro Linguistic Programming and Thought Field Therapy techniques, backing up her propositions with hypnotherapy, and from leaving that first session I have not stopped smiling since. In just four sessions, Julie has taught me that it is not what happens to you in life, it is how you deal with it. Now her positivity techniques have become second nature to me, but I also have many techniques I can refer to if I find myself slipping back to my old habits. At 15 years old, I feel Julie has set me up with skills that will carry me through the rest of my life and helped me take control of my anxieties, I could not be more thankful.

Megan, Whitstable
 I used to have a fear of flying and found it really quite difficult to get onto a plane, and it was becoming hard for me to go on  holidays. I went to Julie before I went on holiday and she taught me these tapping sequences which really helped me deal with my fear. I went on that holiday with no problem whatsoever! Thank you Julie!


Amy, Herne Bay
"I used to get worried a lot and stressed and that made it hard for me to sleep. Julie taught me some tapping sequences that really helped to calm me down. I now know what to do if I get stressed."
Michelle, Faversham
 "I contacted Julie as my daughter was having problems at  school and needed to boost her confidence. Julie was very friendly and welcoming and put my daughter at ease straight away. After a few sessions, Julie helped my daughter to put strategies in place and so become more confident when dealing with problems at school. I would say that the sessions with Julie were very successful." 
​
Susan, Faversham
"I was claustrophobic  and unable to use lifts, but after just one session with Julie, lifts were no  problem. In fact last August I was on holiday in Toronto and my hotel room was  on the twelfth floor, so we were in and out of lifts several times a day. Julie  also treated me for loss of confidence, especially when driving, but at  Christmas I drove to Devon and back on my own. If I have any problems with anything again I would not hesitate to contact Julie."


Joan, Whitstable 
I visited Julie after the medical profession failed to help me. I was quite stressed, which  affected me physically. After the first session, the change was remarkable. I began with a simple tapping routine, but  after the first week my stress had all but diminished. I continued to see Julie for a few more sessions, with a great deal of  success.  I have since travelled to the French Alps by car, and also holidayed in Egypt without experiencing any stress whatsoever, despite the volcanic eruption which delayed  my return home. I use the tapping routines automatically now, when I feel "tight" inside. I shall continue to keep in touch  with Julie.  I am so glad I met her. 

Marcia, Faversham
"I took my 11 year old  son to see Julie when he was having difficulty with the transition between  primary and secondary school.  Julie was amazing with my son and he soon felt  comfortable with her.  Julie taught him some coping strategies that helped him  deal with his worries and anxieties.  My son is now settled into school well, so  thank you Julie!"

Frances, Sittingbourne
​ Just to say I have got to the target I set for myself for our wedding tomorrow, Have lost 1 stone 1lb since my HypnoBand was fitted. Wow. So pleased, I plan to lose the whole lot now in stages, thank you so much.

Francoise, Faversham
"I got in touch with Julie at a time when I was struggling with the challenges posed by my husband's depression. My self confidence was low and I felt unable to cope. I was having problems sleeping. Julie quickly put me at my ease and by the end of the first session I left with some coping strategies in place and with plenty to think about. Now after several sessions, thanks to Julie's practical approach and understanding, I feel stronger, better equipped to cope with life, and I am able to look to the future with confidence and optimism. My sleep patterns have much improved. I plan to return to Julie to "top-up" the practical strategies from time to time. I would definitely return to Julie should any new issues arise for me in the future. Thank you Julie!"

I wasn’t sure I would write a review on Julie’s webpage but if it even helps one person to pick up the phone and turn up at an appointment it will be worth it. I am a professional with a high powered job and severe anxiety and agoraphobia were the last things I would ever have thought I would have suffered from.There is a stigma attached to any form of mental illness especially when you have a high powered professional job and that’s why I prefer to remain anonymous. It started after a fall resulted in the fracture of my shoulder and I couldn’t get out of the house for a few weeks and started to suffer from severe anxiety. I didn’t know why and I didn’t know what was happening. I couldn’t sleep, eat, leave the house or carry out everyday activities; I couldn’t even go outside the door to stand in the garden. It was the most frightening thing I’ve ever gone through. Picking up the phone and asking for help was an extremely hard thing to do, it took a week of looking at the phone, ringing the number and putting the phone down before I could ring and finally talk to someone at the end of the phone. To turn up for the appointment was a massive step for me to take and to talk to someone I didn’t know was difficult, I didn’t even understand it myself. Julie was great; she was patient and understanding, supportive and kind. It was hard but Julie put in place for me a “toolbox” of techniques and strategies to enable me to cope with the anxiety and to gradually be able to go out again. Gradually over 6 months and only 5 sessions I was able to work again, shop, walk around a street and shopping centre. I was amazed by the progress I made in a short amount of time. Julie supports you and encourages you all of the time, but it’s up to you to put in all the hard work to get the results you want to achieve. Julie tells you how well you are doing and makes you feel confident and good about yourself again and praises you for all your achievements, but its then up to you to tell yourself how well you are doing and to praise yourself for your achievements. I hope this will help someone else to have the courage to pick up the phone, it’s not easy but it’s worth it. I wouldn’t have my life back now if I hadn’t made that call and had the courage to turn up for the appointment. I cannot thank Julie enough.
   
Marina, Kent
I had been struggling with anxiety  and a number of other related problems for quite sometime. Deciding I needed to  seek advice was a major step for me. I was welcomed into a very warming and  calming environment and straight away I felt at ease. Julie's whole nature is a  calming soothing one. I first met  Julie in 2011, having been through a very scary situation and needing some help with coming to terms with it and the by products; panic attacks, lack of sleep  and generally being in a black hole. Julie helped me see that with work, I could come back stronger and more confident. I am now back at work, doing lots of  training, still having panic attacks but they don't scare me as much and my  sleeping is much improved. What is a surprise is that in the last month work colleagues and family/friends have all said that I seem more confident in myself and calmer, I don't let situations or people upset or control me as much as  before, which has improved quite a few relationships within my life. The real surprise is that I've now started training in the Holistic side of life and this can only be because Julie  gave me the guidance that was needed to have the confidence to do so. The other thing is, you are never rushed out, Julie  takes her time and lets you take yours, some of my sessions were very long and  tiring for me, so she must have been extremely tired at the end of them as well  but you would never have known. We all need a helping hand at times, Julie is a  wonderful helping hand and if you need a helping hand you really couldn't choose better than Julie.
