Testimonials:

"My hypnotherapy sessions with Kathy have been simply amazing in my efforts to achieve physical and emotional health & well-being. I have lost 6 lbs and reduced my cholesterol by 22 points in just the last 30 days. Hypnotherapy has also enabled me to discover things about myself which have prevented me from maintaining true emotional health, and is helping me work through them toward a much healthier approach to life encompassing mind, body, and soul." Dora Martin-Manager of Client Relations-Dallas, TX 3/25/04

"Hypnotherapy has really helped with my binge eating. The suggestions that were given to me while in hypnosis give me the will-power I used to lack to resist self destructive eating patterns and the ability to resist consuming processed junk foods that give a quick fix to deeper emotional issues." Mike W. Microbiologist, Los Angeles, CA 4/14//04

"My hypnotherapy sessions with Kathy were amazing. Traumatic events from my childhood have kept me trapped and full of fear. In hypnosis those events were re-programmed so that the child in me understood what happened. It is like a weight has lifted off me and I am excited to do things that I normally would be running away from. Thanks again Kathy!" Hilary H., Yoga Instructor, Ayurvedic Practitioner, Hollywood, CA 4/12/04

"Kathy is very intuitive and her ability to put one at ease is second nature. My hypnosis sessions with her surprised me. I had no idea how simple yet effective subconscious re- programming could be. Her skill of hypnosis, her clarity of purpose and her healing ability have turned the areas of my life where I have suffered into areas of freedom and possibility.
