For your first session, you will come prepared with an idea of what you want to work on. If you want to try hypnotherapy but you are not sure what you want to specifically work on, than I will ask:
If I tap you with a magical wand that could give you anything, than what would you want? Addressing your desires is the best place to begin your journey of achieving true happiness and satisfaction.

Next sessions
The first session covers the basic groundwork and sets you up with the proper foundation that will be necessary for the following sessions. Here, you will get in touch with your highest potential. These sessions sometimes include regression, aka: reviewing your past, therapy in which you explore the root of your limiting belief and then immediately transform it into a positive supportive belief. When you wholly believe in your capabilities, they become your reality.
Study Results
Since hypnosis and hypnotherapy were accepted by the American Medical Society as a legitimate therapeutic agent in 1958, a great deal of research has been conducted on the efficiency and effectiveness of hypnosis. Several investigators during the 1970’s and 1980’s provided clinical and experimental evidence about the effectiveness of hypnosis for smoking cessation, substance abuse, weight loss, phobias, depression, and anxiety. These results were summarized by the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis as follows:
- Home Study Self-Hypnosis : 2 – 5% success rate
- Group Hypnosis Session: 2 – 5% success rate
- Single Individual Session: 17 – 20% success rate
- Four Individual Sessions: 50 – 70% success rate
- Five or More Individual Sessions: 85 – 90% success rate
