Everything and everybody that comes into your life is there for one of two purposes: either to heal you or to be healed by you of some wrong attitude of mind, body or affairs. Everything and everybody in your life is there to press you into more good, or so that you may draw out of them more good.
                                                                                            - Catherine Ponder

A competent hypnotherapist, like me, working with highly suggestible clients, can help create astonishing change for one's betterment. Relaxation can be induced to relieve pressures of stress at home and at work or to alleviate sleep disturbances; habit problems can be brought under control, whether smoking, overeating, alcohol drugs or unwanted mannerisms.

Hypnosis, often under physician referral, has proved effective in countless physical and mental illnesses, dealing with phobias, degenerative conditions, anesthesia requirements and especially attitude modifications.

Hypnosis can create the all-important positive attitude necessary for well-being in one's life. It can enhance learning, develop motivation, build confidence, improve relationship with self and others and attract positive conscious awareness.

Nearly anyone can be hypnotized and is hypnotized at least 25% of their day.

A word does not frighten the man who, in acting, feels no fear.
                                                                        - Sophocles
 
Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross has said "When we are born, we are only born with two fears. As a baby they are the fear of falling and the fear of loud noises." The rest of our fears are accumulated by our surroundings, what may have been taught to us as a child and through experience of perceived failures.
 
Fear reactions may range from simple "hang-ups" to specific (or non-specific) fears which affect the activities or enjoyment of life, to full-blown phobias which may be part of serious mental illness. (Always work with a physician if mental illness is involved) Under certain circumstances or in specific situations virtually all people experience a variety of rational or irrational apprehensions. Fears seldom travel alone. One may be dominant, but usually several may be present.
 
Fears often emanate from trepidation of impending danger. Fear of loss of control is primitive, but also common, especially in phobia cases. Fear of fear itself can be debilitating.
 
Hypnotic suggestions can replace disquieted thoughts with truthful facts releasing existing conclusions. Exposing the causes may diminish anxieties and alleviate fearful thoughts, relieving distress.
