Hypnosis is a completely natural state of mind. When under hypnosis you will feel very relaxed, similar to that wonderful feeling you experience just as you drift off to sleep. Every person goes in and out of trance states every day whether that is while engaged in a good movie or book, watching TV or at peace in a natural environment. Hypnosis is as ancient as civilization; it is a state of mind that you will recognize as being very familiar. Similar to daydreaming, the effects are feelings of calmness, tranquility and profound relaxation.

You remain in complete control. Rather than losing consciousness or control, you will feel your senses and mind as being even stronger and more focused than in standard waking consciousness. You will not be asleep and will always be aware of your surroundings. During a session, you will be gently guided to a very relaxed state. When you reach this level of focused attention, we will be able to access your subconscious mind to create the changes you want. In this frame of mind you can create true healing and transformation.

Hypnotherapy is a two-way process between the therapist and the client. No one can make you do anything that goes against your moral and ethical beliefs. All clients remain in control and are able to return to waking consciousness at any time. The more involved you, as the client, are involved in the healing process the more quickly you will achieve beneficial results. It is the job of the hypnotherapist to serve as an expert guide who leads you through the self-healing process in a safe, efficient manner that will produce rapid, long-lasting results. Expect to be successful!

Hypnosis has been recognized as a safe and effective healing modality by the American Medical Association since 1958, as well as by the American Psychological Association, the American Dental Association and the National Institutes for Health.
