Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation to achieve a heightened state of awareness. The technique enables changes in perception and memory.

What is hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is a technique which uses the hypnotic state, which enables changes in perception and memory, a major increase in response to suggestion, and the potential for managing many physiologic functions that are usually involuntary. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation, intense concentration and focused attention to achieve a heightened state of awareness that is sometimes called a trance. The person’s attention is so focused while in this state that anything going on around the person is temporarily blocked or ignored. In this naturally occurring state and with the help of a trained therapist, the person may focus his or her attention on specific thoughts or tasks.

What are the benefits of hypnotherapy?

The hypnotic state allows a person to be more open to discussion and suggestion. It can improve the success of other treatments for several conditions such as:

  • Phobias, fears, and anxiety.
  • Sleep disorders.
  • Depression.
  • Stress.
  • Post-trauma anxiety.
  • Grief loss, and depression.
  • Pain Management
  • Smoking
  • Wellness and so much more…

Hypnotherapy is a safe modality when done by a trained hypnotherapist. Hypnotherapy is not mind control or brainwashing. A therapist cannot make a person do something embarrassing or something the person does not want to do.

Testimonial

I just wanted to let you know that this past weekend we were up at the wounded warrior preserve. There were several excellent opportunities for me to have anxiety or a panic attack and I did not.  There was a lot going on including the memorial service for my boss. His family was there. And there were just many many opportunities for me to have anxiety. And I did not! I felt some stress which was perfectly normal. But it never flipped into anxiety. I think it’s Hypnosis!  And I wanted to say thank you thank you thank you thank you!

Honestly, I thought hypnosis would work but I had no idea it would work so quickly. I thought it would be a multi-phased event. I am very surprised at how quickly it worked.
But again I just want to say thank you thank you thank you. I have been worried about this weekend's memorial service since January.  And I’ve had several small freakouts about it but I maintained. I did what I needed to do I did it the way I thought it should be done. And I was 100% fine and you know if you had taken if I had taken a drug or something to avoid the anxiety I would not have been able to have my normal emotions.

So you know if I was glad to see the family it was sad to see the family under the circumstances but I absolutely felt like myself and I thank you thank you thank you!
