About Rob Hadley

I bring a technical approach to the hypnotherapy I practice. Using biofeedback tools and a 'nuts and bolts' approach I have achieved consistently successful results in some of the most challenging areas of hypnosis, most notably addictions.

I set up Vancouver Hypnotherapy in 2007, and have developed it into a professional clinical hypnotherapy practice. I now enjoy working with a staff of therapists who share my views of how hypnotherapy can be used a therapy tool.

I have studied homeopathy, and continue to do so. I use hypnosis in a clinical setting as a genuine therapy modality. I am not a spiritual healer or life coach - that is not the business of Vancouver Hypnotherapy. I teach hypnosis skills for addictions professioanls and also provide training for eating disorders specialists. I also run BulimiaGirls.com - a global resource for people struggling with Bulimia, which is fast becoming a central data repository for research into bulimia.

I regularly write articles for hypnotherapy journals and websites, including Hypnoticworld.com and others.   Some of my material has been incorporated into training schools manuals, and have trained people in hypnosis in both Vancouver BC., and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

After graduating from Coastal Academy of Hypnotherapy in White Rock I set up Separated But Thriving - a system to assist people going through difficult separations and divorces. Coastal Academy offers the highest standards of training in Canada and is approved by the IMDHA. Leslie Macintosh provides extensive training and is widely considered a leader in her field. I currently teach part of the advanced module of Hypnotherapy relating to addictions, at the Coastal Academy of Hypnotherapy

I have additionally trained with Gerry Kein - a leading figure in the world of modern clinical hypnotherapy. I have completed his training in his techniques, including the ground breaking "Ultraheight" technique. Gerry is a legendary figure in modern hypnosis. Having had the opportunity to train with him has been a privilege. I have also trained with noted hypnotist, Grant Boddington in New Zealand, and continue to study an advanced level of homeopathy.

I come to hypnotherapy from a successful background in business. I bring experience gathered while working at a senior level within organizations including Associated Press, Intrawest and Unicef. Within these organisation I gained the technical skills to allow me to develop techniques in online therapy delivery, data pad systems, and predictive modeling that I bring to Vancouver Hypnotherapy.

I recently worked with Gala Films on a forthcoming TV project about hypnosis as a therapy modality and am featured in the forthcoming TV series, Going Under. I enjoy all aspects of hypnotherapy and - yes - I do the occassional show... I love the performing aspect, though it is purely a side interest.

I currently work on primarily on addictions and eating disorders. I also have experience working on weight issues, body image and several other areas of hypnotherapy. I have other therapists in the practice who specialise in other areas. My clients include members of the casts of many Vancouver based film productions, senior management of well established companies in Vancouver, and professionals from all walks of life. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have a question.
