Frequently Asked Questions

I’ve seen hypnotized people act silly on stage. Will I do things I don’t want to do? Can my mind be controlled?

You won’t do or think anything under hypnosis that you wouldn’t normally do or think. You can’t be controlled. If people in a stage show act silly it’s because they want to.

Can anyone be hypnotized?

Yes, anyone who wants to can be hypnotized.

How does hypnosis work?

Hypnosis provides access to the unconscious mind where most of our behavior originates. With my guidance you literally change undesirable emotions, habits, and behaviors, into new desirable ones. You create a new you!

What does hypnosis feel like?

Hypnosis is refreshing, relaxing, and energizing; for some even more refreshing than sleep. Most important is the fact that it works— people get results.

How long does therapy last? How many sessions does it take?

The number of required sessions varies between individuals and the nature of the therapy. As a rule hypnotherapy is considered short-term therapy compared to conventional psychotherapy.

People use hypnosis for quitting smoking. Can it be used to work with other addictions?

Yes. Most addictions are caused by events deeply buried in the past. While treating addictions many methods fail to address these issues, and so really only deal with symptoms. Hypnotherapy addresses the causes.

• Improving academic performance

• Eliminating test anxiety

• Enhancing athletic skills

• Increasing concentration

• Building self esteem and motivation
