Habits and Behaviors
Hypnotherapy is an effective way to eliminate undesired habits and behaviors because it deals with the part of the mind that keeps those habits in place. You can take control of your habits and live a more fulfilling life. I will help you break free from the unconscious patterns that are holding you back and replace them with positive, empowering habits and behaviors.
I guide my clients in a heartful and mindful program where I facilitate a journey to eliminate unhealthy habits and behaviors and naturally and effortlessly introduce desired healthy practices. The hypnotic state makes the person better able to respond positively to suggestions and accept changes until now considered difficult or even impossible.
Some of the habits and behaviors that can be improved with hypnosis include bruxism, TMJ, nail-biting, hair-pulling, smoking, binging, drinking, addictions, stress, anxiety, procrastination, insomnia, bulimina, OCD, among others.
Fears and Phobias
Most people experience some kind of fear of particular things; sometimes it might be a reasonable response to certain situations. Phobias, on the other hand, are extreme fear responses that are out of all proportion to the trigger. Phobias are defined as extreme, overwhelming, debilitating, and irrational reactions to specific triggers. A phobia is an irrational fear, a fear without good reason. People with phobias experience unwanted responses to animals, insects, objects, actions, or places.
Some examples of common fears and phobias are confined spaces, dentists, dogs, flying, heights, needles, snakes, spiders and other insects, and water.
Personal Development and Confidence Building
Hypnotherapy taps into the subconscious mind to uncover hidden talents, boost self-confidence, and amplify motivation. It is an amazing tool to improve your memory, concentration, and learning capabilities and remove mental blockages and limiting beliefs about your skills and abilities. Individuals can develop better organizational skills, have better conflict-resolution strategies, and have a results-driven attitude. It allows you to enhance your self-esteem so you can feel more empowered to deal with the challenges in different environments, including at school, work, sports, and your personal life.
Personal development hypnotherapy has been proven to be an effective tool to remove negative behaviors and beliefs, to help you formulate goals, and to encourage aspirations. Hypnotherapy brings more clarity about your gifts and what makes you unique and special, unleashing your inner power and connecting you with limitless possibilities for your personal and professional life.
Traumas, Grief and Loss
Clinical hypnotherapy can be a useful and effective intervention in prolonged grief reactions. It can be used to address issues of unresolved grief in those individuals who develop any disorder in response to prolonged grief reactions or in those who show complete avoidance of talking about the deceased. Hypnotherapy has been useful and effective in addressing grief reactions as well as associated manifestations, such as sleep problems, depressive features, or post-traumatic stress disorder. It might be a good choice of treatment while dealing with someone having underlying issues or maladaptive coping mechanisms.

What happens in a Hypnosis session?
Hypnosis is a changed state of awareness and increased relaxation that allows for improved focus and concentration. During hypnosis, most people feel very calm and relaxed. While in this deep state of relaxation and focused concentration, you will experience a process that many people think is similar to a guided meditation or guided visualization, with the specificity of being intentionally permeated with imagery, cues, and suggestions targeting your desired goal.
Myths about Hypnosis
Myth: You’re under the control of your hypnotherapist when you’re hypnotized.
The hypnotherapist is just guiding you in the process; you do all the work. In fact, you are hypnotizing yourself. It is a voluntary act aiming to alter beliefs you know are not benefiting you. You can’t be made to do anything against your will. You won’t reveal any information that you wish to remain secret. You don’t lose control over your behavior. You can leave the hypnotic state anytime you want. You are always in control.
Myth: Only weak-willed people can be hypnotized, I cannot be hypnotized
Everyone with minimum cognitive skills can be hypnotized. This is a process that works and activates your imagination and creativity with a specific goal. Actually, smart people can have amazing hypnotic results due to their very active and vivid minds.
Myth: Hypnosis is related to the occult, to mystical powers
Hypnosis has nothing to do with any spiritual practice, cult, religion, or faith. It is a practice involving your unconscious mind. More and more we find pieces of evidence and research from respectable and renowned medical institutions validating the efficacy of hypnosis.
