Hypnotherapy & Counseling

help better your life

Come to terms with fears and anxiety. With the use of hypnotic suggestions anything you can picture in your mind can become your reality. Take that plane ride, enjoy crowds, walk by a rottweiler, or conquer almost any phobia. From anxiety and weight loss, depression, grief, marriage counseling, anxiety, and divorce recovery. I have the skills needed to bring you through. Improve your game like the pros. Golf, tennis, and running, whatever your sport may be. Be like the pros and use the power of your mind to increase the power of your body. I will teach you how to overcome addictions, compulsions, and fears with guided hypnosis and proven counseling techniques.

Hypnosis working for you

With Hypnosis you can become much more open to suggestion and guidance -- not so much a loss of control as openness, agreeing to what someone else is suggesting. Hypnotic suggestions are used and implanted in your subconscious mind. Your mind accepts these suggestions because your mind enjoys suggestions that coincide with a healthy lifestyle. With my help we can overcome limiting behaviors and encourage and develop new ones. Use hypnosis to overcome anything you want!

Past life regression

This term is clouded in myth and half truths. Past life regression is a new age term for a type of hypnosis that takes you, the client into your memories. In hypnosis I will lead you to a part of your mind that holds memories that may or may not be linked to your personal life. I do not apply any judgment to your experience. Whether you believe that these memories are actually of a past life or just an interesting fun experience lies completely with you. I do believe in Carl Jung’s belief that we all have a “collective unconscious”. Meaning our minds hold a treasure trove of memories and experiences. This is the place I take you to, in order to find out fun and exciting things about your memory.

Hypnosis Myths

it's not voodoo

If you've ever seen hypnotism used as entertainment in a stage act, then you have probably witnessed many of the myths about hypnosis in action. Legitimate clinical hypnotherapy that is practiced by a qualified professional is not the same as that performed on stage.

  • Q: What is Hypnosis and how does it work?
  • A: Hypnosis is a very natural process of entering a state of deep relaxation. This helps your subconscious (or unconscious mind) become more attentive and receptive to suggestion, and, thus, more open to change.
  • Q: How can I be sure I can be hypnotized?
  • A: Hypnosis is a natural, though altered, state of mind. You enter some form of hypnosis several times a day, like when you are driving and pass your turn-off because you haven’t been paying attention. Everyone goes through natural, altered states before they fall asleep, and as they come into wakefulness. Therefore, most people can enter hypnotic relaxation easily, provided they want to.
  • Q: What can hypnosis be used for?
  • A: Hypnosis can be used for many things, including changing bad habits, getting rid of unwanted weight, pre and post surgery, and curing insomnia. It is also effective in dealing with anxiety, fears and phobias, depression and acute or chronic illness.
  • Q: Can a hypnotist make me do something I don’t want to do?
  • A: All hypnosis is actually "self-hypnosis." You are allowing the hypnotist to guide you into your deeper and broader memory and other resources. Since it is a 100% consent state, no one can hypnotize you against your will. You are free to reject and receive any suggestion at any time.
  • Q: Can I get "stuck" in the hypnotic state?
  • A: You can’t get stuck. The hypnotist counts you out, and almost always you will hear the count. Since hypnotic levels are altered states between being fully awake and being completely asleep, you would merely fall asleep if you didn't hear the count, and wake up when you are ready.
  • Q: Will I reveal too much when I am hypnotized?
  • A: Hypnosis is not a truth-serum or other drug. It is not like "opening Pandora’s Box" and letting out all your secrets. Since you are in charge and letting yourself be hypnotized, your own mind determines how much or how little you wish to contribute to a hypnosis session. You can just as freely answer and not answer questions in a hypnotic state as you do in a wide-awake one.
