Life is full of options and you should have access to all of them.  In the past, when a person felt confused or overwhelmed, they would seek a therapist.  This would typically consist of sessions of cognitive therapy (a lot of talking) resulting in some new understanding of the self and a period of change followed by reverting right back to old behavior.  A newer and more effective method is hypnotherapy where cognitive work is done and then the mind is sort of rewired to reinforce the new and better behavior at its source: the subconscious.  Hypnotherapy is very effective, plain and simple.  More and more people are recognizing this every day.  The days of “trying” to feel better are over as hypnosis has been de-mystified and revealed for the true science of mind that it actually is.  However, to be truly effective hypnotherapy needs to be combined with other methods, like coaching and/or counseling.
Life-coaching assists clients in determining and then achieving personal goals.  These goals can be health, profession, relationship, educational, or anything else the client can dream of.  A qualified life coach acts as a mentor and understands that success in reaching goals is a formula.  I provide effective strategies, not merely ideas to my clients.
So what can happen when these two highly effective practices some together?  Life-changing and mind-altering success, that’s what.
As a hypnotherapist I have been extensively trained in consciousness and subconscious behavior.  As a life coach and state licensed counselor, I draw from a variety of disciplines that include sociology, psychology, mentoring, management, counseling and even western and eastern philosophy.  Between the two of them I have built a successful practice.  A private practice only succeeds if my clients succeed.  By using non-conventional and highly assertive methods, my clients succeed… and so will you.
When seeking the help of a professional, interview them thoroughly and make sure they have the skills and experience you need for permanent change.
Here’s what hypnotherapy and life-coaching can treat for you: depression, anxiety, unwanted habits, health and weight concerns, relationship and sexual enhancement, career choices and goals, motivation, creativity, memory, life direction/purpose and too much more to list here, including conditions that range from severe to mild.  If you truly desire change and feel that a better life is possible, it can happen with a winning combination.  Your professional’s expertise should cover the spectrum from everyday self-improvement to crisis and severe issues.
