What is Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a natural, focused state of awareness where the body relaxes, the nervous system settles, and the subconscious mind becomes more open and receptive to positive change.

 What is Hypnotherapy?

Clinical hypnotherapy is a powerful way to work directly with the subconscious mind—the part of you that influences your emotions, behaviors, beliefs, stress responses, confidence, relationships, habits, and ability to create lasting change.

Rather than focusing only on surface-level symptoms, hypnotherapy helps identify and change the deeper subconscious patterns and nervous system responses that may be keeping you stuck in fear, anxiety, self-doubt, emotional pain, burnout, unhealthy relationship dynamics, or limitation.

As those deeper patterns begin to change, your mind and body can start responding in healthier, calmer, more confident, and more supportive ways.

Hypnotherapy is not about becoming someone else.
It is about becoming free from the patterns that have been holding you back from fully being yourself.

Celebrities that have used Hypnotherapy:

Barak Obama:
Quit smoking after 30 years with the help of self-hypnosis.
Ellen Degeneres:
As well as going on the record to say that hypnotherapy can help you quit smoking, Ellen shared her experience with smoking cessation hypnotherapy on her show.
Adele:
Reportedly, hypnotherapy helped her stop smoking right away, around the time her hit single “Hello” first came out.
Drew Barrymore:
Hypnosis worked well for her, leading her to permanently quit the habit. This is another success story that underlines how hypnotherapy can make a difference even in the most challenging cases.
Matt Damon: 
When he was a guest on The Tonight Show, he discussed how tough stopping smoking was for him, and credited hypnotherapy for his eventual success. He praised it as the best choice he made, and emphatically endorsed its effectiveness.
Ashton Kutcher:
Ashton Kutcher is enthusiastic about the effects of hypnotherapy, noting that he used it to stop smoking and that he really believes it works. In addition, he endorses hypnosis for focus and concentration, and is an advocate of creative visualization for personal success.
Angelina Jolie:
A mother of six children, world-famous actress Angelina Jolie reportedly relied on hypnotherapy to help her remain calm and centered when she gave birth to her twins. She apparently chanted and entered a hypnotic trance, which was allegedly a pre-arranged part of her birth plan.
Debra Messing:
Will and Grace star Debra Messing used hypnotherapy to help her get into the right mindset for underwater scenes in the film “Lucky You”. Prior to her use of hypnosis, she was reportedly terrified of being underwater, but she didn’t want this to hold her back from a fantastic role. She also says that hypnotherapy helped to save her life, as it pushed her to stop smoking for good.
Albert Einstein:
While you might not imagine that a prominent scientist would try an alternative therapy, Albert Einstein is known to have used hypnotherapy. In fact, he first came up with the ideas that led to his theory of relativity while he was in a hypnotic trance. He found that hypnosis enhanced his creative thinking. This is a good example of using hypnotherapy not to overcome an obstacle but rather to improve skills you already have.
Orlando Bloom:
Although you wouldn’t guess from his adult physique, Lord of the Rings star Orlando Bloom struggled to stay away from sugar when he was a child. His mother enlisted the help of a hypnotherapist to help him cultivate a different attitude to candy, and it worked. He was able to lose weight, and seems to have stayed in great shape since then. This suggests that even in childhood, hypnosis can have long-lasting positive implications.
Tiger Woods:
Golf star Tiger Woods is a staunch advocate of the power of hypnosis, and he has used it for more than keeping fit. He has talked about using hypnotherapy to become a better golfer, and his record speaks for itself. He first tried hypnosis in his teens and it has helped him to get rid of feelings of anxiousness so that he can give his best possible performance on the course. In addition, he visualizes every move he makes on the golf course before ever hitting the ball.
Kevin Costner:
Kevin Costner had his own hypnotherapist for many years, and (like Debra Messing) he used hypnosis to help himself overcome discomfort surrounding water. While he wasn’t afraid of the ocean, his time spent filming “Waterworld” was causing intense sea sickness and slowing production of the movie. He reports that since his time working with his hypnotherapist, he no longer has any struggles with working in or on water.
Fergie:
In addition to using hypnotherapy to control her eating habits, Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie has reportedly used hypnosis to help quit the habit of biting her nails. She has described herself as being “heavily into hypnosis”, and says she finds her sessions extremely relaxing.  She mentions that she sometimes hears the voice of her hypnotherapist encouraging her to make positive choices, and says that these lifestyle changes have stuck.
Eva Mendes:
Eva Mendes is also said to have benefited from hypnosis sessions aiming to stop her from biting her nails. She has a history of endorsing hypnotherapy more broadly. In particular, the actress has confirmed that she has used hypnotherapy to combat and overcome a debilitating fear of spiders. This is another excellent example of how hypnosis can influence subconscious fears that hold us back.
Sylvester Stallone:
It took a long time for Sylvester Stallone to get his big break in the movies, and some speculate that the success of Rocky (his breakout role) came partly from his work with a hypnotherapist. While he struggled with intense fear during the first days of filming, he used personalized “subconscious motivation recordings” to overcome his anxiousness and give his best performance.
** Sylvester Stallone worked with the infamous Hypnotherapist Gil Boyne, who mentored my mentor. After repeated acting job rejections, Gil worked with Sylvester and suggested that he write his own script, about overcoming poverty and adversity (they both grew up in rough neighborhoods of Philadelphia.) That script became the infamous film Rocky and launched “Sly” into megastardom.
