It is an exciting time to be coming into the field of
hypnotherapy....into alternative/complimentary healing in
general. Finally, the medical community and others are
beginning to recognize the healing potential of these
Canada is further behind than the U.S. in this respect but I
see the changes occurring. It is a slow process but it is
happening all around us and is wonderful to see.
A few years ago if you mentioned you were interested in
hypnosis, you would probably be greeted with the familiar…
"oh, are you going to bark like a dog or cluck like a
chicken?" or any number of ridiculous statements brought
on by misconceptions created through stage performances,
movies and TV talk shows. That is why it is so important to
have excellent schools with high standards and dedicated,
passionate teachers so the profession of hypnotherapy can
be truly appreciated.
Today, people are recognizing the healing power of
hypnosis, as well as making a positive change in their lives,
gaining confidence, breaking habits and so on. These things
are all within their reach through the power of their own
minds.
Everyone from Olympic athletes to business professionals to
students are discovering what they think determines the
direction their life goes. They are learning to take charge of
their own lives and are becoming empowered in the process.
For me, there is no greater work than helping people make
these wonderful discoveries. I am honoured to work in this
field and I constantly look forward to opportunities to grow
and learn more about hypnotherapy.
I have personally seen amazing results with hypnosis. I have
witnessed situations that could even be called miraculous. I
have worked with clients who, after trying everything they
could think of and came to me as a last resort, found that
hypnosis helped them with their issues.
I believe that in by-passing the conscious, critical faculty of
the mind and working with the subconscious mind, there is
no limit to what can be accomplished.
I always tell clients, "What you believe about yourself is
what you’ll become....all you need to do to change your life
is to change your mind."
