About Helen McElroy Miah, Advanced Diploma in Hypnotherapy
The Basingstoke Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy Clinic


Hello, my name Helen McElroy, and I am a fully qualified and licenced hypnotherapist and hypnoanalyst, who has been actively studying hypnosis, psychotherapy and psychology for over 15 years.

Three years ago I set up The Basingstoke Hypnotherapy Practice.

I hold a Diploma in Hypnotherapy from Hypnotherapy Control Board – which is Europes largest hypnosis, hypnotherapy and hypnoanalysis training school.

I have recently been awarded (one of the first 20 people to have done so) The Advanced Diploma in Hypnotherapy, from The Iah - The International Association of Hypnoanalysts - which is the most professional and credible hypnotherapy and hypnoanalysis organisation that exists. (see www.successfulhypnotherapy.com for more information)

To be awarded the Advanced Diploma, I had to successfully complete eight separate residential training courses, they were: Hypnosis for pregnancy and childbirth, Sexual abuse and sexual offending, Easy Smoking Cessation, Hypnoanalysis, Training Analysis, Initial Consultation and three other hypnotherapy conferences.
I further had to demonstrate to The Iah Council of Management, that I was practicing therapy to an advanced standard.

Though I am now an advanced practitioner, I still continue to update my training and skills by regularly attending advanced training seminars and workshops, and undergoing regular therapeutic supervision.

As part of my committment to Iah Membership, I have also successfully been through my own training therapy (to make sure I don't pass on my own neurotic conflicts to you!)

On a practical note, I hold full and public liability, product liability and malpractice insurance for the practice of hypnotherapy, psychotherapy and counselling.

My professional association, the IAH, is dedicated to the professional and ethical use of Hypnosis for therapeutic treatment of problems of a psychological nature and was set up in 1981.

Members of the Association are bound by a Code of Practice and Ethics of the highest standard, have satisfied an examination board of their knowledge and level of competence and have undertaken to abide by the Rules of the Association.

Dear Helen
Since my session with you I have made a couple of presentations and the most important one was a 45 minute on last week at a very important sales meeting. The presentation went very well. Your session really did help my pace which was what I was really working on. The feedback I got following the presentation was very positive and a lot of people commented on the difference. Thank you for you help. I will at some stage come back for another session as I felt so good after.

Thanks once again. (consulted to help improve presentations)

"....Helens calm and soothing approach helped me to sink into a deep state of relaxation. I was still aware of what was happening around me but my limbs felt too heavy to move. I really felt at peace after the session. Helens easy going and friendly manner really put me at ease. I felt very safe and comfortable in her presence. Thank you Helen"........Victoria Hale

"Dear Helen, What a wonderful experience!! I cannot remember the last time I felt that relaxed. Ever since the session I have felt so much more positive, people around me have noticed a difference too. I don't know how you did it, but I'm very appreciative, and I've been recommending you to everyone I know! Thanks very much"

"Helen...thanks for all of your help........life is really good - CP"


"I just wanted to say a big thank you for firstly giving up your time on
Saturday and for what you did to help Jane (not her real name). It was amazing the difference when we got home, she was smiling, laughing and joking and even spent the evening downstairs with us.....I haven't seen her this relaxed for months maybe even a year. She went off to her course today without a second thought and more amazingly has said she will go away on an outward bound trip......which staggered me, she hasn't been able to stay away from home for over 2 years! whatever you did it worked. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I cannot believe the difference in her...."

"Helen, the effect has been enormous! I have lost three and a half stone, and I feel bloody marvellous. I really cannot thank you enough - you have changed my life. JK, Salisbury"

"The session worked a treat! Not only have I not smoked for three months, but I haven't even thought of one. I don't know what you did to me, but thanks very much - everyone at my work wants to come and see you now. Dave, Andover

"Life is so much better since my session with you helen. My confidence has improved dramatically, and I even attended an interview last week. Thanks very much". Clare, Basingstoke

"Just wanted to thank you again for all your help, I don't know what I would have done without it. I feel like a weight's been lifted off my shoulders, it really did feel like I was walking around with a black cloud hanging over my head before.

I noticed the difference most recently (visiting a fairground). Before I came to you I would be almost hysterical at going on any of the rides there, but I went on almost everything without feeling any sort of nerves really. I just kept telling myself that I needed to push myself to face different challenges, and I felt a real sense of achievement.... it made me feel that if I could conquer that fear, then I could conquer anything that I was afraid of.

I'm driving a lot more now....I'm looking at getting one of my own (car) soon....I'm also starting swimming lessons.....I've also decided to start a college course with a view to maybe changing my job to suit me more...I don't seem to feel half as much emotion about situations that I did before now. I'm finding that generally I don't dwell too much on things like that anymore......Generally I feel a lot more relaxed and happy and that's all thanks to you, I just can't thank you enough"
