"I would like to thank you for helping me with my fear of flying. I have tested this once since our session on a return flight to NY. I felt different immediately after the session, much lighter and I felt like my old self, as in actually looking forward to the flight and feeling excited about it rather than the dread I had been feeling before."

"I first visited Antonia in 2002 after my father had died and during a period when I was very stressed at work. Antonia enabled me to take a look at my life, create space in my mind and to address what was actually going on. She taught me to map out my life on a pie chart and I have used this tool continually ever since. A year after my father’s death I had one session with Antonia to come to terms with my father’s death and we did the ‘grief model’, which helped me to move on with my life more positively. The model did not take away the pain of missing him, but it enabled me to lay my father to rest in peace. Antonia has never passed judgement on my problems and that made it much easier to deal with the issue at hand. She has great respect for her clients and does not look to install her own ideas on to them.
I feel that by having gone to Antonia I have realised that years of therapy are not necessary to get to the root of the problem. NLP seems to allow you to deal with huge problems in just a few sessions, and sometimes in one session. My sons will agree with this as they have both been to Antonia and dealt with issues they have wanted to resolve.
My 14 year old son had been biting his nails and cuticles since he was seven years old. Recently my son went for 1 session and now he is so proud of his fingers and is truly grateful that Antonia helped him.
My other son now aged 15 has visited Antonia on 2 occasions. When he was 11 we had a burglary, which frightened him and stopped him from sleeping. Antonia used a simple NLP technique, which helped him to view the burglary slightly differently, and hence enabled him to sleep soundly."

"Before I proceed I would like to express the whole DeSouza family’s gratitude to you for your help and the positive change that you made in me. You will recall that on 24th February 1996 during your excellent Saturday course you asked for a volunteer who would like to cure a phobia. I explained that I had this tremendous fear of going into hospital for open heart surgery. I must say that when I left the demonstration chair I felt light mentally and found a vacuum had taken the place of the phobia. During the intervening days up to the operation I felt that a switch had been turned “ON” in my head. I was positive and relaxed about the outcome. I joked on the way to the operating theatre and woke up in intensive care unit."

"I saw Antonia in November 1995 after being claustrophobia sufferer for 4 years, which was brought on by a panic attack whilst travelling on the London Underground. After trying hypnotherapy, which failed miserable, I was resigned that I would not be able to use lifts, trains, etc. After Antonia used NLP I did not believe that my claustrophobia had gone, she assured me it had, but it all seemed so easy. The following week I started travelling to work on the train and after a few initial feelings of anxiety I found that NLP had worked. Since then my confidence has grown and not just with lifts and trains, but in other aspects of my life. I am no longer restricted in my everyday living as I was even before the claustrophobia."

"I managed it! Don’t know how Antonia does it! I was telling the air hostess about I’d been cured of my phobia and she told the pilot who invited me on the flight deck to discuss NLP as he wanted smoking cessation. He said: “Let’s see how good you are.” And invited me up the flight deck to help him land his plane!!! I sat behind 2 pilots with headphones and listened to traffic control talk us down. Mind you I did burst into tears when it was all over!! Tears of liberation. I FEEL AS IF I HAD OPEN MIND SURGERY."

"Dear Antonia, You predicted a few years back that I’d some day be travelling to London on my own to attend the NLP Practitioner Programme. Thanks to your inspiration, encouragement and support I have just completed module 5. Your future pacing has given me a sense of purpose and a sense of congruency that I never thought possible. You are a shining light.
Claire Brown ( Who, when she first came to see me was a agoraphobic since she was 7 years old and had had virtually continuous treatments since. After 4 sessions she left all that behind, trained for her Foundation NLP with me and became a Practitioner NLP with ITS. She is now an extremely effective therapist specialising in eating disorders, and getting magical results! I am very proud for her and for her achievements, which are truly remarkable."

"I thought I‘d share my good news with you. I handed in my notice at work yesterday and have been offered a fantastic new job as an events manager at a new private members club. The money is fantastic, the people are great, and so I am happy. I though I would write to you and thank you, as I feel that the sessions earlier this year have been very instrumental in helping me move forward towards my goals with confidence."

"I am doing well with snakes. My son tested me by showing me graphic photos on the internet and he was amazed at my reaction (or lack of it). I do feel I have a right to be here now, which I did not before. It is surprising how daily I come across something ‘snake like’ and I don’t feel in the grip of that sickness. It had a bigger impact on my life than I imagined."

"Thank you for your help with my driving problem. At last after 15 years, I am able to drive without the overwhelming anxiety attacks I have suffered for so long."
