What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, often accompanied by deep relaxation. In this state, you are more open to positive suggestions and can access deeper layers of your subconscious mind to promote healing and change. Sounds nice doesn't it?
Will I lose control during hypnosis?
No, you cannot be made to do anything against your will. You are always in control during hypnosis. It’s a cooperative process, where you remain aware and can choose whether or not to accept suggestions. Hypnosis is only effective with your permission.
What can hypnosis help with?
Hypnosis can be used to help with a wide variety of issues, including stress, anxiety, phobias, weight loss, smoking cessation, improving sleep, enhancing performance, providing closure, cord cutting and exploring past lives. It can also aid in emotional healing, trauma recovery, and self-discovery. This is by no means an exhaustive list. Hypnosis is custom designed for each individual. Even for things like overcoming the munchies, anesthesia or even gamer rage. The sky is the limit!
During a hypnosis session, you will be guided into a deeply relaxed state. The therapist will then use gentle suggestions to help you access your subconscious mind, uncover hidden beliefs, or address specific goals or challenges. The experience is calm, focused, and supportive.
Will I remember what happens during hypnosis?
In most cases, yes. While you may experience a deeply relaxed state, you will likely remember much of what happens during the session. Some people experience a heightened sense of clarity, while others may not recall everything but still benefit from the session. A copy of all sessions are recorded for you to revisit anytime you'd like.
Is hypnosis safe?
Yes, hypnosis is completely safe. It’s a natural state of mind that everyone can experience. When guided by a trained professional, hypnosis is a safe and effective tool for healing and personal growth. Its even safe to use during pregnancy and childbirth.
What is the difference between clinical hypnosis and stage hypnosis?
Clinical hypnosis is a therapeutic process guided by a trained professional to help individuals address specific issues like stress, anxiety, and phobias. Stage hypnosis, on the other hand, is primarily for entertainment purposes and involves volunteers from the audience performing exaggerated behaviors. Clinical hypnosis is safe and focused on healing, while stage hypnosis is more for show.
Most people can be hypnotized, though the depth of hypnosis varies from person to person. People who are more relaxed, open to the process, and willing to participate tend to experience deeper levels of hypnosis. It's not about "being susceptible," but about allowing the experience to unfold naturally.
While both hypnosis and meditation involve deep relaxation and focus, hypnosis typically includes specific suggestions aimed at achieving a particular goal, such as overcoming a fear or breaking a habit. Meditation, on the other hand, is often more about quieting the mind and achieving a state of peace or mindfulness. A well trained hypnotherapist will help you focus and navigate the inner spaces guiding you to find the answers you seek from within.
Yes, you will be fully aware and conscious during a past life regression session. You may experience vivid imagery, emotions, and sensations, but you will remain in control throughout the process. Think of it like this, you are driving the experience and the therapist is simply the GPS. Just in case, all sessions are recorded for you to revisit any time you'd like.
We offer hypnosis sessions both online and in-person, depending on your preference and convenience. Online hypnosis can be just as effective as in-person sessions.

Yes it is! A January 2024 Meta-analysis show significant findings proving the efficacy of hypnosis for a variety of domains. Many of todays modern psychological principles are based of theory's that originated with hypnosis. I too love to know the science and the history. So for those of you , curious just like me here's a extremely brief history on hypnosis.
The Science and History of Hypnosis
Hypnosis has a long and fascinating history, rooted in both ancient practices and modern scientific research. Although it has been practiced for centuries in various forms, it wasn’t until the 18th century that hypnosis began to be recognized and studied scientifically.
Ancient Roots
The concept of hypnosis can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where rituals and healing practices often included trance-like states. Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Hindus used forms of guided meditation and trance for healing purposes, believing in the power of the mind to influence physical well-being.
Modern Beginnings
The modern understanding of hypnosis began in the late 18th century with Franz Anton Mesmer, an Austrian physician. Mesmer’s work focused on the idea of "animal magnetism," where he believed that an invisible force could be harnessed to heal the body. While Mesmer’s theories were later debunked, his practice of inducing trance-like states laid the groundwork for hypnosis as we know it today.
Scientific Validation
In the 19th century, hypnosis began to gain more credibility in the scientific community, largely due to the work of James Braid, a Scottish surgeon who is often considered the father of modern hypnosis. Braid coined the term "hypnosis" and believed it was a form of focused attention, which led to significant advancements in understanding the mechanics of the practice. In the 20th century, hypnosis was further studied by psychologists and medical professionals, and its applications expanded beyond entertainment to include therapeutic uses. The rise of clinical hypnosis was marked by its application in pain management, stress reduction, and treatment for anxiety, phobias, and behavioral change.
The Neuroscience of Hypnosis
Today, research into the neuroscience of hypnosis shows that it is a legitimate and scientifically supported process. Functional MRI and EEG studies have demonstrated that hypnosis activates specific areas of the brain, particularly those involved in concentration, relaxation, and pain perception. This provides solid evidence that hypnosis is more than just a “mind trick”—it is a real physiological state with measurable effects on the brain and body.
Hypnosis in Modern Therapeutic Practice
Modern clinical hypnosis is a respected therapeutic tool used by psychologists, physicians, and other healthcare professionals. It’s employed for a range of issues, including pain management, stress reduction, smoking cessation, and overcoming phobias. In recent years, its use has expanded into areas such as trauma recovery, personal development, and even performance enhancement.
