I originally went to see Kathleen for help getting more active. After years of therapy, I felt like I was doing okay on a logical level. But after speaking with a counsellor friend and learning more about the theories in The Body Keeps the Score, I decided I wanted to try hypnotherapy to help figure out what was holding me back at a subconscious level.As it turns out, there was a lot—more than I expected. One of the biggest revelations was that I hadn’t fully processed the trauma from a break-in nearly ten years ago, even though I thought I had moved past it. I hadn’t realized how much anxiety I was still carrying, or how I’d been avoiding certain situations just to keep that anxiety at bay.Thanks to my six sessions with Kathleen, I’m now walking alone without fear, my energy has increased, and I’m discovering my more active lifestyle—that’s what I originally came for. But what I didn’t expect was everything else: my travel anxiety has disappeared, old painful memories feel healed, and I’m no longer cycling through thoughts in times of stress. I’ve found a level of calm I never thought possible, and I’ve even stopped biting my nails—a habit I’ve had since childhood.I’m so deeply grateful to Kathleen. This experience has truly been life-changing, and I would highly recommend working with her to anyone who feels stuck or wants to reconnect with themselves in a more meaningful way.

Mountaineering comes with several challenges, one of the struggles for myself was travelling through and around extreme exposed situations. Prior to my last trip that was going to involve lots of exposure I had some sessions with Kathleen in hopes it would eliminate or reduce my fear. I am so excited and impressed with the results and how my fear was transformed into confidence on Carstenzs Pyramid and can not say enough good things about Kathleen and Hypnotherapy.

I really enjoyed working with Kathleen. She " got" my situation. Very professional and extremely knowledgeable. Holds clients accountable. I never felt like I was talking to a " therapist". She helped me a lot. I would recommend her to anyone.

I got more out of the sessions than I had dreamed possible. I am grateful for those who posted reviews as this helped me in deciding to choose Kathleen. I would whole heartedly recommend Kathleen McIntosh to anyone who is considering hypnotherapy.

I had 6 sessions with Kathleen from December 2023 - July 2024, and I can honestly say she changed my life. I went to her to help with weight loss - something I’ve struggled with my whole life. I was feeling lost, defeated, and desperate to try anything to help me make the lifestyle changes I knew I needed. Kathleen was so kind, welcoming, approachable, and nonjudgmental. Each of the 2-2.5 hour sessions flew by, and I always left feeling prepared and excited to make changes. Hypnosis is nothing like in the movies; Kathleen guided me into a relaxed, hypnotic state and then suggested positive healing ideas. She sends audio recordings to listen to at home (one for the daytime and one for night/bedtime) to help reinforce the healing. I initially reached out to start sessions because I wanted to lose 50 lbs before my wedding in August 2024. Kathleen helped me find deeper reasons to want to be healthy. She did sessions that explored my childhood and helped me to understand how that affects me as an adult. Kathleen sent and shared many resources, such as apps, podcasts, websites, and recipes. Through my sessions, Kathleen’s resources, and my changed mindset, I started going to the gym regularly and eating to fuel my body. I lost over 55 lbs by my wedding date and feel amazing. I would recommend Kathleen’s services to anyone who wants to change their life. She is amazing!! Thank you, Kathleen :)

Kathleen gives 110% in her hypnotherapy session and is an absolute joy to work with! I highly recommend her to anyone seeking inner healing.

Kathleen is amazing at what she does. She has so much knowledge to share and goes above and beyond for each of her clients.

Kathleen is incredible. I approached her with a lot of skepticism, but an open mind to find another tool to help with life’s stresses. She has been phenomenal. It’s a gentle process, and not as you might imagine watching a TV/stage hypnosis show. However, she works with our unconscious minds to reset negative patterns that aren’t working for us. I’m so happy that I took the chance to give this a try. Expectations were clearly set, and I am delighted with the outcome. Highly recommend! She is also an inspiring individual who I look forward to staying in touch with.

I recently completed a series of 4 sessions with Kathleen in an attempt to unlock and resolve past traumas (medical and childhood). These episodes had caused me to live in fear and anxiety almost daily and was extremely debilitating as a mother of two little ones. I tried traditional counselling, CBT etc but didn’t feel it left me with lasting coping skills. I decided to try hypnotherapy as I knew I had nothing to lose and so much to gain.I felt very at ease with Kathleen immediately. Therefore it was much easier than I thought to be put into a hypnotic state. Each session more was unlocked within my psyche and I even felt some of my physical symptoms start to dissipate. Kathleen also provided me with very useful personalized meditations, book recommendations, and resources to assist me further.I am very grateful for Kathleen as she has been a guiding light during a period of darkness. In addition to my sessions with Kathleen and some positive life changes, I’m happy to report much of my fear and anxieties have melted away. I’m very confident with each passing day I will only continue to get stronger and stronger. If anyone is considering hypnotherapy, I wholeheartedly recommend Kathleen.
