I was a smoker for 30yrs and tried many times to give up and always failed! One session with Lara and I can’t ever imagine smoking again. Can’t recommend her enough. Thank you SOOO much!

"I can't recommend LC Hypnotherapy…
"I can't recommend LC Hypnotherapy enough! As a fellow hypnotherapist, I've worked with and learned from many practitioners in the field, and I can confidently say that Lara is truly exceptional. What sets her apart is her brilliant combination of professional expertise with genuine comedic talent.
What I particularly admire is her incredibly creative approach to hypnotherapy. Her sessions are unlike any others I've experienced or witnessed, bringing fresh and innovative perspectives to the practice. Lara also has this refreshing directness – no beating around the bush or unnecessary fluff. She gets straight to the point while keeping you thoroughly engaged and entertained.
Whether you're new to hypnotherapy or experienced with it, Lara's unique blend of humor, creativity, and straightforward approach creates transformative experiences that are both effective and enjoyable.
As someone who knows the field inside and out, I can say with absolute certainty that her work is outstanding. If you're looking for a hypnotherapist who will not only help you achieve your goals but make you laugh along the way, Lara is absolutely the one to see."

I made the decision to stop smoking
I made the decision to stop smoking, the obvious (cost £11.49 anti-social and health reasons, notice that I listed health last) get a piece of paper, write down benefits of smoking!! tried patches, mints, fake cigarettes, thought what else, hypnosis, would it work?? thought all I have to do is give it try.
I was skeptical of trying people might think that I was wasting my money, was it all fake .... 2 weeks ago I was smoking 20 a day, I'd had enough, booked a 15 min chat with Lara on the Monday scheduled our session for Friday of the same week, had last cigarette on Thursday night, threw away all my lighters ashtrays. The session wasn't frightening or scary, it was enlightening, calming, haven't had a cigarette or craving from that session, saved over a £100.00 and feel so much better, I encourage anyone who is thinking it's not for them, please give Lara a ring, it's been a life changer for me :-) good luck

Hypnosis for weight loss
I recently finished a 4 week course of sessions to target my unhealthy eating habits and preoccupation with food which was causing weight gain and poor self image.
After initial contact Lara called to discuss what I wanted to achieve and made me feel at ease immediately.
I had in person sessions, after the first visit the difference was immediately noticable. I felt lighter mentally and more free from constant thoughts about food.
A few weeks on and I've lost over 12lbs but more importantly have more headspace, no intrusive thoughts and less anxiety.
A really great experience all round.

Lara helped me stop snoring
Lara helped me stop snoring. I was skeptical to ask this but she fixed it! During the procedure funny thoughts went through my head, but the proof is in the pudding. According to everyone who has ever shared a room with me during the night my snoring was intense and loud. She did a hypnosis session with me that was very interactive, she asking and guiding, and me answering while I was in trance. A few hours later my wife and me went to bed and for the first time as far as anyone can remember I was quiet the whole night and so far so good!
I highly recommend Lara to anyone who wants something mentally fixed very badly. If you want it but don't know how she can help you do amazing things.

Lara charged us £ 400 styed just over…
Lara charged us £400 stayed just over an hour and all her tricks failed.Donot pay her up front she is not truthful by her words.
Drank all our alcohol and left.Lara we arrived at 9.40pm and saw you arrived.I offered you a glass of wine and you accepted.I have all the videos to proof only 3 worked ,within the space that you were there.You chatted so much to let time fly! 3 worked and 8 failed, you can hear yourself on the video you kept swearing, not again! You got so upset because it was not working that you blamed the 12 guest for not being responsive.Your Husband also said no pictures or videos as he will be the photographer for the evening.Some guest said that it was strange that we cannot take pictures in our own home.4 guest wondered if it was a catch at the end and charge us again an astronomical price for the videos.We all took some.debbie and I took the videos.I am gratefull we took the videos.
I offered you a glass of wine not the bottle that you took to the lounge.That is irrelevant.We were all disappointed because your tricks failed about 8 times.Please explain to your clients that 9 out of 10 times your tricks failed then you blamed it on a small amount of 10 guest.
It is very sad to see the videos that I have.Good luck!

Thank you for your reflection and review.
It failed for a number of reasons, most significantly, there were not enough guests to form the kind of audience you need for a successful hypnosis show. Over the phone you assured me you would have 25 guests in fact there were only 10, most of whom including yourself did not want to go into hypnosis and none of whom had been forewarned or provided consent.
Hypnosis is a collaboration between the hypnotist and the subjects. If the subjects do not want to go into hypnosis whether for entertainment or therapy they will not go into hypnosis.
Amongst other things you were unhappy that I was talking to the guests. I understand that your expectation was that I walk into your space with guests who didn’t know I was coming and begin hypnotising them. In a small working space like your flat it was important that people relaxed.
You say that all my “tricks” failed, this is simply not true. Out of those ten people in the space, I successfully hypnotised two of your guests. The hypnosis ‘tricks’ as you call them include one of them forgetting their name and having their hand stuck on their head.
You were also disappointed that I didn’t do some of the ‘tricks’ you asked for. Before coming, you mentioned your husband’s best friend as being a bit of a nuisance and a conspiracy theorist, and someone who you wanted me to do a trick on and have me implant a conspiracy theory in his head. However, when I met the man concerned, he was very gentle and told me that he suffered with some anxiety and the idea of planting a conspiracy into his head presented itself as a very bad idea to me and seemed totally unethical and more importantly unkind.
You also wanted me to get your husband to strip his top off and dance to Elvis, but it was revealed to me during the hypnosis that your husband didn’t like Elvis so would have found this suggestion humiliating rather than entertaining especially with such a small and unresponsive audience. He did however, imagine he was seeing you in the shape of a cloud and waved to you. This is on our recording, along with few of you experiencing hypnosis.
We can both agree that it was not a dazzling success of a hypnosis party, however it is clear from the full recording that I’m a hypnotist doing my best in a difficult situation. Some of the things worked and some of them did not.
I don’t know who this person is who you’ve described as staying for an hour and drinking all your booze. Sounds like they had a much better time then me. Your husband offered me a glass of wine when I came in. And I drank half of it, as I introduced myself to your guests and settled into the space having had to wait in the car because your party returned from the restaurant half an hour later than agreed. If I’d realised you were insulted by my accepting a glass of anything I would have brought my own water.
I don’t know what sort of price you think that asking someone to come to your house in London involving an hour’s drive each way, late on a Saturday night and perform some entertainment hypnosis for you in the privacy of your own flat with six day’s notice should cost, but I really think you are mistaken in what you consider to be expensive. The following morning, rather than have a polite and respectful conversation with me about your disappointment, you called me a con artist on social media. This was not the behaviour of someone acting with integrity. Thankfully the video evidence shows the truth of your evening weather you like it or not.
This could have been handled so differently.
I know you were disappointed but so was I and your disappointment has manifested in rage, spite and dishonesty .

Weight Loss With Lara
I have just completed a 6 week group weight loss course with Lara and the results are in.
I no longer think about food in the same way.
Lara equipped me with tools to use incase the ‘munchies’ strike and I am so happy to say that they actually work.
Not only have I lost weight but I have also noticed differences in other areas of my life too.
Working closely with Lara is an experience I will never forget because she is friendly, intuitive and so funny at the same time as working her magic.
I highly recommend Lara.

Thank you so much, Anne for taking the time to review the group weight loss programme. I’m so happy that you’ve seen the benefits to your relationship with food and to your weight.
I really loved our group, it was a laugh. And I am missing seeing regularly although glad also that you’re doing well.
