Testimonials

“I came to Amanda with very low confidence and self esteem, and long standing issues with food. Amanda helped me to identify the causes of my unhappiness and through Hypnotherapy I was able to regain control of my health and happiness. I would not have though it possible to see positive results in such a short time. These results for me have been truly magical. Thank you so much Amanda for turning my life around.” MK

"Thank you very much for helping me get started on a journey to clarity and personal performance."- TG

“I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to Hunky Dory Life, for getting me back into the driving seat of my own life! When I was under a great deal of stress, Amanda gently helped me realise that I have the power to create my own confidence and that I can choose to be happy. After only a couple of sessions, and armed with some easy but extremely effective tips to deal with difficult and stressful situations, I feel I am ready to face any challenge and give it my best shot!” - MH
