Each of us, at some point in life, can find ourselves at a crossroads. 

I invite you explore the possibilities - the tools for wellness and renewal that are available through hypnotherapy.  Allow me to help you to find your own unique solutions to life’s challenges, because a whole new life path could be just a step away…

What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is both an everyday occurrence and a profound mental gift.  Perhaps you have gotten lost in a good book and completely forgotten what time it was.   That’s hypnosis. 

Perhaps someone suggested to you that by doing some minor activity, you might reduce some type of discomfort – you tried it and it worked.  That’s hypnosis. 

Perhaps you found yourself daydreaming while stuck in a boring meeting – losing yourself in your memory or imagination.  That’s hypnosis.

Hypnosis is merely the suspension of one’s own disbelief, along with the willingness to think selectively on that which you desire to focus.  Although simple, this gift can offer us tremendous tools for personal wellness.

How Can You Use Hypnotherapy to Help You Heal?

Hypnosis can offer growth and wellness in many forms.  This can be as short term as boosting your confidence – just before you give that all-important speech.  Or they can be as deep and long term as reducing life-shattering discomfort or fear.  In all cases, hypnotherapy utilizes the unique gift of the human mind that is hypnosis to help you access and heal the issue you wish to address.

What Does the Hypnotherapist Do?

As a hypnotherapist, I am nothing more than a deeply caring guide, who can help you to find the solutions you seek.  With my help, you can allow yourself to go into your own internal space to accomplish your healing work.  Hypnotherapy is client-centered, meaning that you will always know you have the freedom to do whatever is most appropriate for you.  I will only say or ask that which can be most helpful to you to promote your healing. 

Imagine how, with me as your guide, you can find answers to questions which can help you improve your life.

Who am I?

I am a Certified Hypnotherapist and NLP Practitioner, living and working in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, just north of Minneapolis. 

I conduct hypnotherapy to help people with career, mind-body and life-quality issues.  These include weight loss, pain relief, fear reduction and building personal confidence.  By the grace of the Higher Power, I endeavor to bring hypnotic healing to those in the community who experience such life challenges.

What is My Training and Education?

I am a Certified Hypnotherapist with the National Guild of Hypnotists, America’s oldest and largest hypnotherapy certifying body.

I am trained and certified through the Center for Hypnosis Research and Training, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, as a Master Hypnotherapist, Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist, NLP Practitioner and Hypnotherapy Instructor.  The Center is owned and operated by Dr. Kevin Hogan.  It is affiliated with the National Guild of Hypnotists and licensed in the state of Minnesota.  It is recognized throughout the world as a leading school of hypnosis and hypnotherapy.

In addition, I hold a bachelors degree from the University of Wisconsin, in Madison, Wisconsin, and a Masters Degree from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota.

New!!! I am now certified as a 5-PATH Hypnotherapist, and an instructor of the 7th Path self hypnosis method. Click here to learn more about 5-Path and the 7th Path.

I Look Forward to Meeting You

For each of us there is a time to focus on healing some part of our life.  If you are at such a time, either now, or in the future, I would be honored to be part of your healing process.  Please feel free to let me know if, when, and how I can be of help to you as you find your own unique solutions to the questions of life.

Articles:

       (Published April/May, 2004 in NGH “Hypnogram”)

Hypnosis and Meditation have many similarities.  How can we use some of the techniques of meditation in hypnotherapy?  This article examines how the client can use mindfulness techniques to step back and observe, reframe, and thus transcend an issue. 

       (Written with Rebecca Scott, CHt)

This article examines the techniques in the book “MetaCreation of Personal Realities in Space and Time”, and describes an experiment with it, by the authors.

A technique to manage those pesky dark spots in your field of vision:  This was written as a contribution to the book “Through the Open Door, Secrets of Self Hypnosis” by Kevin Hogan and Mary Lee LeBay. 

 

UPDATED!!!  My new self-hypnosis CD, "Tune out the Spots," is also available for help with your visual "friends".  This uses the techniques in this article.  Order yours today, and start learning how to manage those annoying dark spots in your visual life.

 

Note: This self-hypnosis CD is not intended to affect any physical condition.  Check with your doctor to be sure that floaters are not a sign of an important health condition.  Always use this or any other complimentary health tools in conjunction with whatever your doctor may indicate.

Patterns, Scripts and Other Tools
This section will contain various patterns, scripts and other tools which I have found to be effective.  I invite comments from any who have used them, or have been the client where they have been used.  In addition, any new ideas are always welcome:

This is a generic pattern which I have adapted to help manage chronic discomfort.  I have found variations of this, when tailored to the specific client’s needs, to be effective in cases of pain due to chronic issues.

A generic routine which I have found useful for helping people to come to terms with those stressful or annoying situations that are all too common in life.  I have found patterns similar to this to be useful tools to help the client build a sense of personal security, emotional self empowerment and personal confidence. 

A generic script for trance work which I have found to help people enhance their own creativity, or find the answers to questions beyond the analytical mind.  This script lets you become your own personal oracle.
