Therapist Review from Jan Corcoran

I was new to Traverse City, moving from San Francisco,  searching for a therapist with a hypnotherapy background and found Amelia. As a professional business women with a psych background, I was very clear about what I thought I needed. I definitively wanted someone who would listen to me, and would help me face some very tough situations. I also wanted to learn some new tools like hypnotherapy to handle stress. For the first time in my life, I took a break from my career to focus on me. Amelia gave me a safe place where I could let go of deep feelings and heal. I highly recommend Amelia as a therapist and a hypnotherapist. She is warm, kind and insightful.  You will feel better in her care.

Abstract

In this study we examined the effect of hypnosis on preoperative anxiety. Subjects were randomized into 3 groups, a hypnosis group (n = 26) who received suggestions of well-being; an attention-control group (n = 26) who received attentive listening and support without any specific hypnotic suggestions and a "standard of care" control group (n = 24). Anxiety was measured pre- and postintervention as well as on entrance to the operating rooms. We found that patients in the hypnosis group were significantly less anxious postintervention as compared with patients in the attention-control group and the control group (31 +/- 8 versus 37 +/- 9 versus 41 +/- 11, analysis of variance, P = 0.008). Moreover, on entrance to the operating rooms, the hypnosis group reported a significant decrease of 56% in their anxiety level whereas the attention-control group reported an increase of 10% in anxiety and the control group reported an increase of 47% in their anxiety (P = 0.001). In conclusion, we found that hypnosis significantly alleviates preoperative anxiety. Future studies are indicated to examine the effects of preoperative hypnosis on postoperative outcomes.

Hypnotic Approaches for Chronic Pain Management

Hypnosis for Pain Management - Clinical Implications of Recent Research Findings

"The empirical support for hypnosis for chronic pain management has flourished over the past two decades. Clinical trials show that hypnosis is effective for reducing chronic pain, although outcomes may vary between individuals.

The findings from these clinical trials also show that hypnotic treatments have a number of positive effects beyond pain control. Neurophysiological studies reveal that hypnotic analgesia has clear effects on brain and spinal-cord functioning that differ as a function of the specific hypnotic suggestions made, providing further evidence for the specific effects of hypnosis.

The research results have important implications for how clinicians can help their clients experience maximum benefits from hypnosis and treatments that include hypnotic components."

Weight Loss Made Easy with Hypnosis

Dieting is not always the best alternative for those who want to lose weight. I can offer a healthier alternative.

We all know that diets fail because they are not realistic, convenient and manageable. Hypnotherapy offers the solution. It is not a diet. Hypnotherapy effects lifestyle and changes in habit.

Hypnotherapy is direct communication between your conscious mind (the part that tells you that you want to be slim and fit) and your subconscious mind (the part that likes to sabotage your healthy eating habits because it has another agenda regarding chocolate cookies and ice cream). Hypnotherapy calms the battle. Hypnotherapy gets your subconscious mind and conscious mind to agree to the same healthy eating habits. It changes your living and eating habits from now on. Because hypnotherapy does this through a very relaxing process, it is easy, comfortable, effective and sustainable.

You become who you think you are. You become healthier, fitter, and trimmer. You eat healthy foods because your subconscious mind believes in it. You are more motivated to exercise because your subconscious mind believes it. With hypnotherapy you make positive lasting changes to your lifestyle from now forward.
