Peter Bates Holistic Services
"I recently had hypnosis therapy with Peter to help me quit smoking. I have been a smoker on and off for over 40 years and found it difficult to quit on just will power alone. Peter has helped me to overcome my addiction using hypnosis he has taken time to guide me through everything including audio meditation that can be done in your own time and space. I can't thank Peter enough for the help he has given me and I would highly recommend his services to friends and family."

Working with Peter has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life.
From the very first hypnotherapy session, I felt a shift I hadn’t thought possible. Peter brings a rare combination of warmth, empathy, and deep intuition to his work. He listens - not just to words, but to what’s beneath them - and creates a space that feels safe, respectful, and profoundly healing.
I came to him carrying trauma I didn’t believe I could ever process. Through his guidance, I’ve not only begun to heal, but to understand myself in ways I never imagined. Each session has helped me reconnect with parts of myself I thought were lost.
The only way I can describe it is that Peter brings colour back to your life. Where things once felt muted or heavy, there’s now lightness, clarity, and vibrancy. I feel more grounded, more hopeful, and more alive than I have in years. Peter’s approach is gentle yet powerful, and his presence alone is calming. I’m deeply grateful for the work we’ve done together, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking meaningful, lasting change.

Hi Peter, I am deeply grateful for the opportunity BNI have given me over these last few months. Being a part of Dynamic Downham has provided so many wonderful experiences and memories. It’s given From Me to You a chance to grow and expand their visibility. One of the most inspiring and influential people I have the utmost pleasure of meeting is you, my dear Peter. I have had the pleasure of sharing invaluable time with you, both as a BNI charity member and on a personal level. Your support, kindness, compassion and your calm aura is a true blessing and testimony to your chosen profession. Your service to Dynamic is truly outstanding. You do so much. Even when you are not well, yourself. One part of your many talents is your ability to write the most amazing poetry. You have submitted so many beautiful and heartfelt poems to the charity. I read one of your earliest poems to a neighbour. She loved it so much it now sits next to her bed so whenever she needs a lift, she reads it. This is the very essence of From Me to You! To help with loneliness and feeling isolated. Lastly, thank you so much for your intervention. We all live with our own levels of stress and anxiety, pain and trauma. Thank you for helping us overcome these life challenges. You are an amazing human being! Thank you x

Peter is a sincere person and genuinely cares about helping his clients, so far I have had 2 long discovery chats which cost me nothing but, helped him to help me. Those chats also helped to clarify in my own mind what it is that I need help with. I wasn't a true believer in hypnotherapy but, open minded enough to give it a go and I'm very pleased I did. Falling asleep could often take me hours, now it's a matter of minutes!! Yes, really!! Don't ask me how he does what he does but, it's working for me. I've just returned from my second session and I'm hopeful that today's visit will be as beneficial as the first one. Hypnotherapy isn't cheap but, at least with Peter you aren't conned into paying silly money, none of this "Buy 8 sessions, get 2 free" and other similar ads you see online. Have one session with Peter and feel the difference, potentially saving yourself ££££.

I contacted Peter for help with exam stress and to deal with a past exam experience that was really stressful. Peter was amazing, he explained what hypnotherapy was, how it worked and how he could treat my issues. I did the meditations before our session and really enjoyed them. My session itself was very useful and relaxing, the whole experience was really positive. When I took my exams, I was able to think clearly and logically, stay focused, didn't panic if I didn't understand anything, and have no doubt that my session with Peter had helped. Would highly recommend Peter, a very caring and sensitive person. I have continued to do the meditations as I found them so beneficial and relaxing.
