Ask A Question

Expertise

I can answer questions on Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, and NLP, with focus both on Hypnotizing other people and on Self-Hypnosis for personal improvement. Experience spans "regular" hypnosis techniques, Ericksonian Hypnosis, NLP, Stage Hypnosis, Underground and Covert/Black-Ops Hypnosis. Some experience also in PLR.
Whether you're just curious about hypnosis, or you need serious professional help - feel free to ask whatever is on your mind and I'll do my best to answer promptly. Please add any information you feel is relevant. The more info I have, the better I can address your question, especially if your condition is complicated. Please do not ask me to hypnotize you, online or otherwise. Sorry, but I'm here to help with advice - not actively hypnotize. Thank you for your consideration.

Experience in the area

I've started experimenting with hypnosis 23 years ago, and have been practicing it professionally for the last 19 years. I'm proficient in hypnotizing other people (and, of course, myself), and have successfully taught both hypnosis and self-hypnosis to dozens of students. I have a masters degree in education, 19 years of professional experience (4 more as a hobby) and have passed an intensive 5-year internship with another hypnotherapist.

Organizations

I am a founding member of the International Conversational Hypnosis Society

Education/Credentials

ICHS Approved Conversational Hypnotist

What do you like about this subject?

At the risk of sounding cheesy... I really enjoy helping people. I often encounter people with seemingly unsolvable issues, and when I get to solve these problems using hypnosis, this really makes my day.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

LOL - the whole subject is controversial. So many people think it is a hoax. Those who've seen it work know better. While we're at it: Please do not ask argumentative questions, just for enjoying a good debate. My time is very expensive, and I'm volunteering here to help, not argue.
