What does hypnosis feel like?

• What does hypnosis feel like? What does thinking feel like? Hypnosis is a mental process. It is not uncommon for people to expect to much the first time. Despite what you might have seen on T.V. or movies Hypnosis is not a magical spell.

• Will I lose control? No. This is a myth that has been created mostly as a result of Hollywood wanting to entertain you. Hypnosis is not mind control. In fact hypnosis is a way of helping you regain control of those areas of your life that don't have to be out of control anymore.

• Will I be made to tell secrets or do weird things? No. No one can be made to do anything while in hypnosis that they wouldn't do in a normal waking state. You still have and hold onto your morals and values in hypnosis just as you do out of it. If you have ever watched a stage hypnosis show, yes it is usually filled with a lot of laughter as participants engage in silly behavior, but those shows are quite different than clinical hypnosis sessions, and those who participate do so with the understanding that they are going to get up there and have some fun. 

• Can I get stuck in hypnosis? No. No one has ever gotten stuck in hypnosis, unless of course you are talking about someone who just spent the whole weekend binge watching a series on Netflix. We all go into an out of states of hypnosis each and everyday. Even if someone were to hypnotize you and then walk away, you would naturally come out of it on your own, usually within minuets, much like waking from a nap.

How many sessions will I need?

Everyone is unique and all problems are different. There is no way to say how many sessions you will need without first discussing what it is YOU want to change. All sessions are customized to fit the client. It is my goal to help you reach your goals in as few sessions as possible.

I usually suggest that clients start with a 3 session package and of course if appropriate additional sessions can be added.

Is there any guarantee it will work?

• Although Hypnosis is a very powerful process that has helped millions of people make changes, it is not "mind control." Not even the very best hypnotist could MAKE you change your habits or behaviors if you didn't really want to. 

• All hypnosis is self-hypnosis and the responsibility of change is a shared agreement.

• Just as doctors can't always guarantee that you will get well and Teachers cannot guarantee that you will learn, there is no guarantee that you will get results. However if you show up to each session with a desire to change and a willingness to participate and do something different, you will get results.

• As a Professional Clinical Hypnotist what I can guarantee is the very best service using the latest in research and evidence based strategies for change and appropriate hypnotic techniques for your situation.

•Everyone can be hypnotized and we all naturally go in and out of stages of hypnosis everyday. Have you ever been in love or found yourself day dreaming? Have you ever been so engrossed in a movie or book that you've lost track of time? If you answered yes to any of those questions, then congratulations you are already doing hypnosis, I can show you how to do it better and actually use it to get the results you want.
