Hypnosis is a powerful way to experience self-discovery and in the process effect positive change in one's life. It allows you to access the deeper level of your mind where you will find not only an understanding of the nature of any problems or issues you have but also the needed remedy. Within the subconscious of each of us there lies a level of wisdom and insight that far exceeds what might be available to our conscious awareness. As hypnotists, we are not trained nor licensed to deal with the conscious mind. This is an area best left to the professionals in the mental health field who have studied and trained in this part of the mind. The hypnotist, on the other hand, is educated and trained to work with the sub-conscious mind. This is the powerful part of the mind that determines who we are, what we are, and whatever we hope to become.
       Hypnosis is effective, powerful and it works! It is a way of transferring power and control back into the hands of the client. All hypnosis is self- hypnosis and the role of the hypnotist is that of a facilitator helping clients not only to identify the origin of many of their problems and issues but through self-discovery to find the solutions as well. The hypnotic process is short term, typically taking only a hand full of sessions rather than years to see results.
       Because hypnosis is so extremely effective and efficient in helping the individual actualize and achieve his/her goals, the future has to be bright. As Tony Robbins is so often quoted as saying "Success leaves clues!" And with todays out of control health care costs it is only a matter of time before the public embraces what works. It has already started to happen. Evidence seems to be both accumulating and pointing to what appears to be a shift in perception as more and more clients become exposed to hypnosis and it's awesome power for positive change. Even the mainstream media has shown an increasing awareness of hypnosis. Recent print articles and television shows like Dateline while not entirely accurate have on balance been positive.
       It is only a matter of time before hypnosis takes its rightful place within the self-help and healing arts fields . . . There is an ever increasing segment of the population that seems to be looking outside traditional institutions and professions that in their minds have failed to deliver the promise . . . I am profoundly impressed with the talents, abilities and ethics of those who seem to be attracted to hypnosis as a way of helping people empower themselves.
