After strict dieting months before my wedding, a honeymoon in Italy was exactly what I was craving. For two weeks I gorged on pasta, pizza, wine and more pizza. I managed to gain approximately 10 pounds while on this European holiday. Needless to say this wasn't they way I wanted to spend my new chapter of married life. I wanted to re-set myself and my eating habits for good. Growing up I was praised for always being a good eater and finishing all my food, which psychologically forced me to ALWAYS finish what was on my plate, even if I was full.

Upon my first meeting with Mindy, she was able to pin-point my downfalls of self-sabotage. She made me feel very comfortable talking about my eating habits and exercise routine.

After the first session I felt amazing! I couldn't wait to workout, and when it came to meal time, I was shocked by how less I ate. Within the first week, I lost 5 pounds. During the remainder of my sessions with Mindy, i lost approx 2 pounds a week, losing 13 pounds total. I am still on my path to success to get to my ideal weight.

I am so grateful to have experienced weight loss through hypnosis. My routine of eating and working out has permanently been altered without strain or deprivation. I honestly can't wait to workout, which has never been something I could have said before.

Thank you, Mindy, for changing my life and helping me achieve my life long goals.

"Eighteen studies showed that clients who learned self-hypnosis lost twice as much weight as those who didn't."                                             O Magazine, August 2004

"When you're overweight, there is a conflict between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind.  The conscious mind says, 'I know I want to lose weight.' However, the subconscious mind tosses up roadblocks such as emotional eating. Hypnosis can help get the two parts of the mind together."

Hypnosis is “no longer regarded as mere hocus-pocus; it’s been shown as an effective means of helping people quit smoking, shed pounds, reduce stress, and end phobias.”                                                   Jane Pauley Show, September 2004

You have probably come to realize that there is more to losing weight than just dieting. You may realize that what needs to happen for you to lose weight and keep the weight off is a change in thinking, a change in lifestyle. You’re right.

That's why hypnosis can help. With hypnosis we can find the negative patterns and beliefs that you have at a subconscious level and re-educate your subconscious mind with more positive empowering beliefs and thoughts about yourself and how you feel about food and exercise. Beliefs and patterns can become established at a very early age.  We may not even realize how we got our beliefs and how they are affecting our life and the choices we make.

During your initial visit, I will explain and we will discuss the mind model, and how the mind works on a conscious and subconscious level. We will then discuss the myths and misconceptions about hypnosis so that you will have a clear understanding of what hypnosis is and what it is not, and what it can and cannot do for you.

We will discuss the goals you are wanting to achieve and some of the roadblocks that have come up for you in the past.  We will then review the different hypnosis methods available that can help you with improving your life and your overall well-being and help you in achieving your goals and dreams.

Before your sessions, we will agree upon the modalities that will be used. Some of the different therapeutic modalities are neuro-linguistic programming, regression, basic suggestion therapy, advanced suggestion therapy, and core transformation.
