Zeenat Ahmed-Peto Cognitive Hypnotherapy

My name is Zeenat Ahmed-Peto. I am a fully qualified Cognitive Hypnotherapist and NLP Master Practitioner.

I support my clients with issues such as phobias, lack of confidence and self-esteem, anxiety, panic attacks, stress and feelings of depression. I specialise in supporting sensitive professionals who want to improve their experience of everyday life.

My clients function well in most areas of their lives, but want to improve their boundaries within relationships or increase their self-belief for example.

You can get back the freedom to live your life you without any issues holding you back. Cognitive Hypnotherapy is flexible, objective, confidential and without judgement.

Whilst only you can make the changes you want, I will be your guide to show you how you might be able to achieve your goals by finding the most effective tools, allowing you to change your behaviour easily and quickly.

I see most clients for 6 or 12 sessions, although it depends on each person's individual needs. I send my clients bespoke hypnotherapy recordings to listen to every night between sessions, which helps the changes to occur unconsciously and quickly, and for the changes to be lasting. I also work with primary-aged children within Family Therapy.

Positive differences in a short space of time 5Star review I have recently completed a 12 weeks programme with Zeenat after deciding that I needed to have a therapeutic approach to work through a trying time. Zeenat is a warm and friendly person who is so empathic and easy to talk to. I instantly felt comfortable and at ease and in a very short space of time I could see and feel differences in the way I felt, my outlook and my approach to things that were a challenge before. Zeenat was brilliant at guiding the programme sessions to cover all the elements I had mentioned were a concern for me but we also had time to explore other areas that had arisen. I have been able to make changes for the better to make me happier and for this I am grateful to Zeenat for helping me, encouraging me and giving me those tools to do this. Zeenat has made an amazing difference in my life, thank you!

A hugely positive impact on my life 5Star review I had the pleasure of working with Zeenat as my therapist, and I cannot recommend her enough. She is a caring and compassionate therapist who helped me overcome problems and offered different perspectives that I had never would have considered. Working with her has had a hugely positive impact on my life, and I am so grateful for her guidance and support. If you are looking for a skilled therapist who genuinely cares about her clients, I highly recommend Zeenat.

Kind support to deal with your challenges 5Star review Zeenat is a blessing for everyone in need. She is not only kind, supportive and caring but has profound knowledge on how to deal with the challenges which comes to us. I would highly recommend working with her. Thank you Zeenat for everything you do. Xx

Get back on track 5Star review I came to Zeenat seeking some help after I’d had a few career and personal roadblocks which had completely shot my confidence. Through working with her I was able to talk openly and honestly about some of the mental blocks I'd had, and put mechanisms in place to acknowledge and cope with them better. I found Zeenat to be an exceptional listener, whose priority is to get you back on track to live your life the way it's intended. I wouldn’t hesitate to speak to her again in future if I face any more issues, as she provides a very friendly, confidential space for you to be able to get to the root of what's getting in the way.

Solutions to let go of trauma 5Star review Before embarking on a programme with Zeenat, I had tried traditional counselling to help me work through a rather distressing relationship breakdown. I found that while traditional counselling helped me somewhat, it did not help me to solve the problems that the difficult breakdown presented in my life. With Zeenat, I embarked on a carefully planned course with goals and outcomes. This focussed plan was extremely important for a quick yet efficient solution. This style also presented value for money. I found Zeenat’s high educational standard to be particularly helpful, as she was able to communicate effectively at varying standards and embark on sometimes deep and complex discussions without judgement. Zeenat’s style of hypnotherapy helped me to find solutions in order to let go of the trauma. More importantly, Zeenat helped me to understand why things are as they are, and how they might best serve you as a person. Instead of just confronting various issues, Zeenat was able to offer a different perspective on each of the issues I had faced, and then helped me to find useful techniques to solve them. Some of the techniques gave me a great sense of strength and calm at a much needed time. Zeenat understood that therapy should not be confined to one hour a week, and made herself available in-between sessions to support, monitor and offer professional care at crucial moments. I could not recommend Zeenat highly enough. Zeenat is caring, highly educated, and a model professional. Zeenat’s unique style of therapy is one which is positively different and effective.

Feeling Stronger and More Confident 5Star review The sessions were wonderful, thank you so much for the relaxing hypnotherapy. Zeenat is a natural therapist and her lovely warm and professional manner helped to put me at ease immediately. I came away from the session floating on air, feeling stronger and more confident, it was like a lovely oasis of calm in the hecticness of everyday life. The practical coaching advice she gave me was really insightful, and I've been able to put it into practice immediately to reduce anxieties and feel so much better.

Got my confidence back! 5Star review I would highly recommend Zeenat if you desperately want to make a positive change in your life, but you simply don’t know how, or where to begin. I had been an experienced solicitor for nearly 15 years, working for the same company, when suddenly I found myself working with an over-bearing and overly critical boss. I felt I was being bullied and over time, my confidence deteriorated to such a level, that I began contemplating a career change. Zeenat worked with me to find techniques to help combat my daily anxiety at work, and regain my confidence. Zeenat’s approach is firm and decisive, yet warm and empathetic. She made me feel totally at ease during the sessions. Thank you Zeenat!

Calming experience 5Star review Zeenat is wonderfully calming. She has a brilliant way of putting you immediately at ease. I loved visiting her to explore some techniques for anxiety. Her relaxation audio has been great to revisit when I have felt old feelings return. If you are looking for a warm, welcoming therapist don’t hesitate to contact her.

Hypnotherapy 5Star review Zeenat helped me find the root of some limiting beliefs and she had lots of strategies and solutions that helped me work on the them. This has been the catalyst for some major changes in my life and I wouldn't have made so much progress without her. She is kind, warm and supportive and I have really enjoyed working with her. Thank you Zeenat!

Hypnobirthing with Zeenat 5Star review I undertook Confident Childbirth Hypnobirthing with Zeenat because I wanted to be calm and feel prepared in the lead up to birth, and to assist me throughout the birth, in coping and being in control. It made a massive difference and I feel most of my goals were met. I believe the birth progressed as quickly as it did as I wasn't feeling fear. I was disappointed I needed an epidural but I was able to go with the flow. I was exhausted as I hadn't slept properly but when I look back I feel proud of myself. I was in my zone and I remained calm and polite to those around me. The doctors and midwives spoke to me regarding the decisions that were being made. It was an intense experience, but one that I felt went well considering all factors.Before getting pregnant, I always feared the labour part. In working with Zeenat, I felt so reassured. This process has increased my confidence in myself. It’s made me realise that I'm capable of more than I thought.Zeenat is an excellent teacher and I can't stress how much happier and much more confident I would feel after having a session with her! As a mother-to-be don't always realise what is specifically troubling you about the birth, but Zeenat helped me remain calm and take the whole birth experience in my stride.

Hypnotherapy with Zeenat 5Star review I have been facing difficulties in relation to my career and personal life. I was feeling overwhelmed and felt there was no relief to my problems. I was feeling hopeless and morally down. That's when I thought of seeing Zeenat for hypnotherapy. She was referred to me by a friend. I have had only couple of sessions with her so far and am already feeling lifted and a bit more positive. Mentally i feel I am in a much better place. She put me in touch with the positive thoughts I already had in my sub conscious mind and that has been helping me to lift myself up whenever I am feeling down. The download she gave me was personalised and addresses the issues I have rather than a generic one which may not have had the same effect. I am really thankful to Zeenat for her support and guidance and I am looking forward to taking further sessions with her.

Weight Loss and Career Changes 5Star review Working with Zeenat started me off on a path of finally finding what I was looking for career wise. I was a primary school teacher and I am now training to be a play therapist. This was a surprising outcome as I went for weight loss! Strangely enough I have lost 2 stone since finding this new career path. At 53 I had the idea that neither were achievable. I believe the talking sessions and the words in the download have guided me to make decision making easier and that the process continued in the months after I stopped seeing Zeenat. So it was not a quick fix but a long term process with lasting results. I have gained a tool box of strategies and will use all of them again and again over the years.

Fear of Driving 5Star review My experience of cognitive hypnotherapy with Zeenat was very positive. It was a ‘safe’ environment and Zeenat made me feel relaxed. The work we did together proved to be pivotal in my attempt to overcome anxiety around a specific situation. Zeenat’s patience and understanding has really helped me on my path to successfully conquering a deep fear and I have made big steps forward in the right direction. The bespoke recording has been really useful. The various techniques that I have been introduced to for coping with my specific situation have been great too. I just need to give myself more time and space for practice! I would definitely recommend Zeenat for helping to make positive life changes.

5Star review Zeenat’s approach is very professional and she puts you at ease. The assessment and subsequent sessions go into great depth and detail, allowing you to identify the core of the problem. The personalised hypnosis mp3 instils a more positive mindset and increases focus and the relaxation techniques Zeenat taught me brought me a sense of calm. I am now able to differentiate when I am actually experiencing the stress response, and how to counter it. Each appointment gave me a deeper insight into the anxiety and low mood, going deeper into the issue and thinking outside the box. There is also good promotion of self management as you are given self help techniques and inter-session tasks to practise.

5Star review Zeenat is exceptionally gifted at helping you to make positive changes in your professional and personal life in a very short amount of time. As someone who works in a fast-paced tech startup world - where change is constant and pressures high - it was a delight for me to work with Zeenat who seemingly effortlessly got to the core of my concerns and helped me to find ways to adapt myself that had immediate impact on my personal and professional relationships. Highly recommended.

5Star review I am so pleased I found Zeenat, she was the right person for me to talk to and she really helped me deal with my panic attacks. Last year I developed a panic whilst being in the sun on holiday, every time I was in the sun I would feel anxious and panicky. This year I was afraid to book a summer holiday for this reason. However, after having 4 sessions with Zeenat, I felt so much calmer and more in control and I was able to have a summer holiday without my usual anxiety or panic attacks. I am so thankful to her.

Highly recommended. 5Star review I found the whole experience of cognitive hypnotherapy very good and it has helped me a lot in a short amount of time. The flexibility of regular sessions combined with the download and homework allowed me to change things at my own pace. I found the download helped to kickstart change which then had a snowball effect over time. Zeenat also listens tenderly and carefully reflects back things I’ve said weeks earlier allowing me to hear myself better than ever before. That kind of feedback loop is really helpful in making positive changes. I have set regular reminders to continue my follow up actions and embed the new behaviours I want. Should I wish to improve other things I will be sure to contact Zeenat again.Highly recommended.

Anonymous, Enfield 5Star review My experience of hypnotherapy with Zeenat was very helpful and positive, and has brought me full awarenessof who and where I am now, and what I need to do to rebalance my life. Her approach was gentle at all times, and she quickly made me feel relaxed. After the first session, Zeenat created a personalised download which I listened to for home work, and by listening repeatedly, this helped me to communicate with my unconscious mind, providing new learnings and guidance on making the right changes to bring back contentment into my life. The work we did together helped me create a dialogue with my unconscious mind, bringing awareness of my inner potential to meet the goals that I desire to make in my life. I fully recommend Zeenat to help you too.

Beating Anxiety 5Star review Beating anxietyI had been suffering with crippling anxiety attacks before key social and family events. The attacks became so debilitating that the mere mention of future plans would make me so Ill that it would effect my ability to function at work. Knowing this was all psychosomatic, and wanting to lead a normal life, I decided I had to deal with the issue. I contacted Zeenat and started to attend regular sessions to understand the reasons for my irrational reaction and learn techniques on how to reprogram my perception and reaction to situations. Early on I felt a change in my ability to deal with an important up coming event and by the time it arrived I was confident relaxed and in control. I can not tell you what a relief it was and what a change it has made to my life. If I had not seen Zeenat I would still be looking for excuses not to attend events feeling like my life was passing me by and that I was missing out on spending time with the people I love. As ridiculous and as embarrassing as the situation was to me, Zeenat always dealt with me in a warm non judgemental and professional manner. I strongly recommend to anyone who is suffering with anxiety, no matter what your triggers are, don't keep living a half life and book an appointment.

5Star review Really enjoyed working with Zeenat. She has a solid and caring approach and is a huge support throughout the sessions and when we don't meet, she is still there via text, phone and email. The download has been great to listen to and has really helped with sugar cravings. Thanks so much.

5Star review I met Zeenat in May 2014 and was at point where my anxiety had reached an all-time high- even my medication couldn't control it. In only a few sessions and two weeks of listening to a download she had specifically prepared for me after our first session, I was amazed at how much better I felt in such a short space of time. Zeenat helped me reset my ‘panic button’ so I didn’t have so many panic attacks and any I did have were of a much less intensity. Zeenat was so kind, calm and supportive and I felt at complete ease talking to her, even about things I had buried deep many years ago.I really feel that Zeenat has given me my life back and helped me take control of it. My confidence has increased in leaps and bounds and I'm now able to take on challenges I could never have dreamed of doing before meeting Zeenat. I'm finally learning to follow my dreams. I will be eternally grateful to Zeenat helping me change my life and cannot recommend her strongly enough.

Fear of flying 5Star review I can't thank Zeenat enough!!!! I actually got on a plane without fear. The turbulence was probably the worst I've experienced and I breezed right through it! Zeenat is wonderful and understanding, I felt so comfortable with her during our sessions and opened up about things I thought if buried, she helped me in more ways than I can say. I have no hesitation in recommending this lovely lady :-)

5Star review Today it's a year since I left my old life and I only just remembered because I have been so busy living in the now! I wanted to thank you for getting me to where I am, and when I think about the past, I have a smile on my face as I have escaped the misery and have more than survived. The difference you have helped me make to my life has been incredible, thank you.

Fear of flying 5Star review I feel so blessed to have met Zeenat. I can't recommend her enough to help with any problems that you think are impossible to overcome. My fear of flying was so horrible that it was starting to affect my life. After 5 sessions with Zeenat I had the courage to get on the plane and have a great holiday. I felt that my sessions were more like visiting a friend than a therapist and was instantly at ease, can't express how lovely Zeenat is and please don't hesitate to give her a call as there really is no need to suffer anymore. There were so many reasons I developed my fears and thanks to Zeenat she pinpointed them after a session and we got to work straight away. As a result of seeing her for my fear of flying it's actually helped me cope with so many more issues in my life. Please don't worry about picking up the phone, it's so worth it.

Back to my old self....... 5Star review I saw Zeenat advertising her meditation class and made an e-mail enquiry explaining a little bit about myself. I'd suffered depression on & off since I was 19 but in the last 18 months I had certainly taken a turn for the worse. Despite having a beautiful baby girl I felt so stressed & low about everything. My relationship was suffering, I had gone from being excited about the future to dreading it and from positive about everything to negative! I went along to see Zeenat and all I can say is that in 3 weeks, 2 sessions and 1 fantastic hypnotherapy download she has me almost back to my old self.I will carry on working with Zeenat for as long as it takes. She is a lovely lady who genuinely cares for the people who come toner for help. Please don't hesitate in going. I first contacted her in November and wish I'd gone sooner. I owe her big time!

Zeenat has enabled me to use the resources I have to lessen the stress I have and fix the fractured relationships that I am with. I went to her because of my over eating and we quickly released that that the tip of the iceberg. We have now dealt with the underlying problems and I can truly say with 5Star review I am a happier person because of ZeenaÅ·
