I specialize in helping people face their most challenging problems head on and find solutions that provide the confidence and peace of mind they deserve. The people I help feel more alive and inspired by the possibilities that life has to offer.
I’m such a strong believer in the tools of hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming and personal development coaching because I know first-hand how profoundly they can change a person’s life for the better. These are the same processes that ultimately helped me address and resolve many of my own greatest challenges in life. I absolutely know these tools are what so many others are also in need of, that I’ve made it my mission to help bring it to them.
For many years I had been searching for solutions to my own problems that had been following me around for most of my life. The major issues I couldn’t seem to shake were things like:
- Social anxiety and racing thoughts
- Depression and mood swings
- Self-sabotaging behavior like procrastination, and reliance on immediate gratification
- Poor attitudes and negative self-talk
These things would continually interfere with my relationships, career, finances and health. To solve these problems I tried the traditional approaches such as psycho-therapy, psychiatric medications and counseling. All these things helped me to some degree, to get a bit of relief from my troubles. But there was so much more going on with me internally than my therapists knew how to address. After several years, I felt the overall progress I was making in therapy was just too slow and so I stopped going entirely and I quit using psychiatric medications.
From there I continued on my own, looking for ways to change and improve my situation; in the course of this I pursued many different routes. Some of things I did included:
- Traveling all around the country attending dozens of personal development and holistic health seminars and trainings with top teachers
- Learning to meditate
- Reading hundreds of books and articles on the mind-body connection, religion, philosophy and science
- Incorporating all that I learned in order to create a cohesive mental, emotional and spiritual frame work through which I could live life in a meaningful and healthy way, according to my own values
- Researching and connecting with many different kinds of coaches, hypnotists, holistic health practitioners and healers and hiring them to work with me on my problems and health challenges
And I made a lot of progress this way. But still my life seemed very unbalanced. It wasn’t until I hired a hypnotist to work with me the for the first time that I could clearly see the possibility of what being a truly whole human being looked and felt like. My first experience working with a professional hypnotist help me clear up so many things from my past and gave me the confidence I was lacking to fully pursue my goals. I made such great progress that I went on to hire and work with several other hypnotists and coaches who helped me to:
- Earn more money and progress in my career
- Create fitness regimens and get in shape
- Improve my diet and sleep cycles
- Have more fulfilling relationships
- Start a new career path
It inspired me so much that in 2012 I decided to get trained and certified as a hypnotist. The same year I was fortunate to also attend certification training, for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. The skills I gained from the NLP training were like the “magical” missing pieces of the puzzle in my communication tool-set. They beautifully complement the ways I learned to help people through hypnosis and together allow me to help people accomplish way more than using just hypnosis alone.
For many years since then… I’ve been working with people using these tools and helping them make dramatic changes and improvements in their health, wellness, careers, relationships and much more. My greatest success in life comes whenever I help another human being have the same experience I did through hypnosis, NLP and coaching – realizing that the things they truly desire are not only possible but clearly achievable with the right mind-set, approach and support.
