About Hypnotherapy and Clinical Hypnosis

Hypnotherapy is a safe and practical method of helping people of any age manage physical and psychological challenges through the therapeutic power of imagination and self mastery. It is a non-pharmaceutical intervention approved by the American Medical Association in 1959 as a treatment modality and is effective with adults, children and teens. Once learned, self-hypnosis is a valuable, life-long skill that can be utilized for coping, healing, and overcoming detrimental attitudes, habits, and actions as well as goal setting and achievement.

Clinical hypnosis is the use of positive suggestions in a deeply relaxed theta brain state to eliminate habits, attitudes or behaviors that are detrimental to the client’s well being. It allows the client to bypass defense mechanisms and our analytical ability to rationalize any behavior. New associations, through positive suggestion, are established. Clinical hypnosis is the opposite of anxiety in that anxiety is negative messaging and sensation and is uncontrolled. Clinical hypnosis is positive messaging in a controlled environment for the purpose of establishing new patterns and associations.
