Frequently asked questions

The results - habit change, emotional resolution, greater effectiveness, etc - are real, so hypnosis is just one way of using words to get real results.

Yes, because all humans go in and out of trance many times per day. And these days I more often use conversational hypnosis, where we have a “normal” conversation and I drive the necessary changes at the subconscious level, “under the hood.”.

It is when I do it. It feels comfortable and relaxing, and you typically feel peaceful afterwards. Sometimes I don’t even need to induce a trance to get the results you desire.

No. I learned my techniques by working with my own mentor to reverse engineer programming done to me and to others, through some written sources, and a lot of hard work.

I get permanent results, and I get them fast.

Yes. See the Testimonials link at the top of the page.

I aim to solve the problem at its root, so generally speaking, the results are permanent. In most cases you won’t be able to experience the problem again.

I have worked with people from ages 11 to 74, corporate managers, CEOs of $100 milion dollar companies, software engineers, small business owners, stay at home moms, professional athletes (both major league and minor league), store managers, flooring contractors, salespeople, doctors, surgeons, investment bankers, teenagers in school, and dozens of coaches and healers of every kind.

See the questions below for some ways. If your issue isn’t listed, I can still probably help.

The most common requests I get for habit change are social media addiction, overeating, pornography, video games, and “minor” chemical addictions like smoking and social drinking. If you have an unwanted habit it’s likely I can help you with it.

Yes, I can help with motivation, beliefs, resolving emotional resistance, and strategy. Be prepared to put in the exercise time and effort.

Yes. I’ve helped many people develop more useful and appropriate understandings of their true capabilities.

Yes. I’ve coached many executives, including CEOs of $100 million companies, small business owners, startup founders and investment bankers in persuasiveness, efficiency, effectiveness, and managing their personal lives.

Yes. Several of my clients have been promoted in their next review cycle (sometimes more than once) after working with me.

Yes. I have specific protocols I can use to supercharge any skill you already have and want to do even better at: golf, cooking, sports or athletics performance, test taking, any kind of sales skills, teaching, presenting, you name it.

Yes. I’ve worked with dozens of coaches and healers on both becoming better at your job and also with personal issues. Consider your barber or hair stylist - do they cut their own hair?

The emotional backlog is a term coined by Gary Craig to describe the events from your past that you still have strong enough feelings about to distort your behavior in the present moment. By neutralizing those events, the emotions are released and they stop distorting your thoughts and behavior today. That way you can go forward in life with less struggle, more freedom, and more peace.

Yes. I have several ways to neutralize painful experiences, even when they are “stacked” like PTSD or childhood abuse. Military veterans with PTSD get a 50% discount. See the “Overcoming Trauma” page under Solutions at the top.

Yes, in most cases entirely. See the Anxiety Relief section under Solutions at the top of the page.

Yes, I help many clients with insomnia. See the Coaching Programs page under the Solutions drop down list.

I can help with resolving unhealthy relationships to alcohol, smoking/vaping, pornography, video gaming, social media, and similar. Hard drugs usually require a physical presence and are best handled by specialists. I can, however, support those efforts and help prevent recidivism..

Yes, particularly regarding anxiety issues. Usually the youngest I work with is Middle School age, around age 11, but there are certain exceptions. Contact me for details.

For women, see the “Attachment Issues” section under Solutions above. For most women, that is the core problem. For men, see the “Men Wanted” section.

I can help each of you resolve the issues on your own side, and help your significant other resolve their issues that bother you. Then we build in new ways of relating that get you more of what you want in the relationship and less of what you don’t want. It works quite well and is usually much cheaper than a breakup.

Yes. I can teach you some effective persuasion techniques and the basics of hypnosis, if you are willing and able to practice them by talking to others. Contact me for details.

I usually charge by the solution, not by the hour. Think about it - if I can resolve someone’s anxiety problems in 4 sessions, isn’t that better than taking 10 sessions to do it? That said, most targeted programs I offer are completely resolved in 4-8 sessions.

ASD is mostly a “hardware” issue, but I can typically improve functioning, especially in already high functioning individuals. If someone has “tech brain” and wants to move into a soft skill role like managing, I can open up black and white thinking and shift categorization from discrete to continuous, which improves fluidity of thought.

I can move someone about 20% on a 0 to 100 scale without any adverse effects, but is that really a problem these days?

Hypnosis (both formal and conversational), neuro-linguistic programming, neuro-semantics and belief change, some methods of my own invention, and some other protocols such as EFT where applicable.

Yes. It is possible for anyone to be comfortable in his or her own body. Gender dysphoria in girls is usually a self-hate vs self-acceptance issue and is relatively straightforward to address (most cases in minors resolve naturally by age 18, though not all). Gender dysphoria in boys usually has an additional component that I also address. *I will only work with gender dysphoria clients if it is legal to do so in your jurisdiction.

See the Solutions page above.

See my “Products and Recordings” page under the “Solutions” link at the top of this page. I have many self-service programs that can help you.

How long have you been going to your therapist without a true solution to your problem? The psychology industry offers a lifelong subscription to a sympathetic ear or to drugs with unwanted side effects. I offer true, permanent solutions. Isn’t that more valuable?

No, but you should be able to use HSA money for sessions.

Start with my audiobook “Change Your Past, Change Your Life” (see Products and Recordings under Solutions above). It’s just one hour long, so listen to it 3-5 times. That will get you started. Then get whatever of my recorded products jump out at you as helpful.

Look into a 12-session package (Coaching Programs under Solutions above). That’s enough time to transform your life in several areas. Get things moving, rebound from a major loss or life event, or just take everything to the next level.
