What is hypnosis? Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness that allows your conscious mind to quiet itself so you can access your very powerful subconscious. While in this restful and peaceful state, you always maintain conscious control; yet your subconscious has the opportunity to incorporate powerful new thoughts and ideas that facilitate change.
 

Our core philosophy: We practice a form of hypnosis called "Transpersonal Hypnotherapy" which has at its core a client centered approach. It is our belief that every effect has a cause and almost every client, through the use of hypnosis, has the capacity to uncover not only the details concerning the origin of his/her problems, but the solutions as well. The hypnotist or hypnotherapist approaches a session as a facilitator with the deepest respect for the client's inner wisdom for locating and resolving his/her issues. Each of us is following our own unique path through life and it is not for the hypnotist to judge but rather trust in the client's ability to find his/her own way, according to his or her own individual time table.

Here we list just a few of the most common questions and misconceptions so that you understand the truth about hypnosis and the power it offers for positive change.
