Nearly half of US teens mutilate themselves.

According to a study conducted by Brown Medical School and The Miriam Hospital, published in Psychological Magazine, forty six percent (46%) of teens admit to cutting or burning their bodies…biting themselves… or picking at their skin to draw blood.  Teens who do it says that the physical pain distracts them from mental or emotional distress.  Other teens feel that self-mutilation gives them a feeling of self control over their lives.

Almost half of all teens you know feel so bad about themselves that they are hurting themselves.  As a Certified Hypnotherapist I have been working with people to overcome bad habits, fears, weight management, stress, self esteem, confidence, etc.  It breaks my heart to think that many of the adults I treat have been living in misery for decades.   It’s sad.  They are lucky that when I work with a client it takes only five sessions to help them overcome their problem and feel good about themselves…Finally.

I wish I could have worked with the older clients when they were younger; before they took their bad feelings and added bad habits to distract them from their pain.  The more parents know about what is going on with their child, the more the child can be helped.  Most people have found adolescents to be a difficult time in their lives.  Some people live with the pain forever.  THEY DON’T HAVE TO!

I am the foremost expert in working with children and teens, utilizing hypnotherapy in Southern California.

As a former middle school special education teacher, I am especially skilled at building rapport with parents and children. I love working with children, even those that others find "difficult." I find it truly rewarding to help young people permanently improve their self esteem, confidence and ability to learn, and overcome issues related to emotional problems, motivation, anger management, fears, anxiety and trauma. Taking care of these issues early can prevent even bigger issues later.

  Poor School Grades

  Fears

  Low Self-Esteem

  Anxiety

  Moody Behavior

  Emotional Issues

How does hypnotherapy help with child and teen issues?
Do your children have issues? If so, hypnosis can be used to help in many ways, including helping children:

Ø Learn to love themselves and treat themselves with kindness, so they can grow up knowing the truth, which is that there is nothing wrong with them. All children – including your child – deserve to grow up happy.

Ø Eliminate anger and gain control of their reactions, so they will make smart decisions and remove hostile or aggressive behavior.

Ø Desire to be confident and successful in all facets of their lives, so they can set goals and achieve their dreams. Hypnosis can help children improve their grades and their attitude towards school and family.

It is important to help children as early as possible, as early intervention prevents the child from becoming an adult with far more serious issues. The techniques I use give your children the tools they need to maximize their potential and eliminate bad behaviors. Hypnosis can help children and teens live happy and healthy lives. I turn bad habits into good habits, confidence and self esteem.

I am pleased to announce that I have opened my own practice.  I am now the proud Hypnotherapist at TRANQUIL SOLUTIONS HYPNOSIS.  I am enjoying being on my own, despite that fact that I dont have the Banyans' around to ask questions to every 5 minutes.  My business is starting to thrive and I find my time focusing more on working with tweens/teens.  It is rewarding and parents love to refer me to their friends.  I love it. 

To my old friends, please drop me a line to say hello!
