I have had excellent success with assisting clients who have had problems with anxiety! Hypnosis is widely acknowledged now as a viable tool you can learn to help with anxiety (see quotes below.) After years of working with clients on this subject, I see a common thread. I believe most people who suffer from anxiety or panic are already doing a form of self-hypnosis. This is when you are thinking, worrying or making pictures in your mind of something undesirable happening. The result of creating an intense, negative picture in your mind of some kind of trauma or strife is that your reaction to your inner experience is so intense that the body has a physiological response to this perceived danger.

Hypnosis teaches you to to learn to have a relaxation response to stressful situations. It helps you to take control of your beliefs and thoughts that are generating the anxious feelings and begin to focus on how you want to feel and think. It is not a replacement for your will power but it helps align your consicious and subconscious mind to achieve a desired result...and make it a whole lot easier to achieve!

Hypnosis has traditionally been sought after for fears related to public speaking, test taking and a number of phobias including driving and flying. Most people who have "panic attacks" are already very adept at, what I describe as "negative hypnosis." In turn, this causes "fight-or flight" symptoms such as body tension, shallow breathing, and adrenaline flow which are experienced in an anxiety or panic attack .

Through hypnosis, you can learn to take control of your thoughts and release anxiety and panic. Here are some of the areas where anxiety can be common and has been successfully addressed with hypnosis:

Driving * Flying * OCD * Panic * Bedwetting * Thumbsucking
Fears/Phobias * Public Speaking * Study/Exams
