I finally made the decision to reach out and get some much needed help with getting over a past relationship that I had been holding onto for awhile.

It was around Christmas time 2010, that I felt I had kind of hit rock bottom! This needed to happen for me to be able to even think about the thought of moving on. Deep down I knew that I had to move on but was still holding on to that relationship...hanging on by a thread! I knew that I deserved more and I knew that I wanted more out of a relationship. With the new year quickly approaching I knew it was the right time to work on ME!

I finally sat down and emailed Darlene. It still was a hard thing to do but I knew I was doing the right thing. It made it easier knowing Darlene and having had worked with her a few years back. It also helped that I knew she knew me and what kind of person I was. So, I knew that we wouldn`t have to start right from the start.

My first session with Darlene went very well. I must admit I was a bit nervous as I had NO IDEA what to expect! Darlene made me feel so comfortable and welcomed me with open arms! I left that first session feeling like a totally new person. I knew that I had taken the first step to a better me, to a better future. I completed four other sessions and felt just as good after each session.

I completed these five sessions in about a month. I could not believe how much better I was feeling. Darlene had me focus on the positive things that I experienced each and every day, instead of dwelling on the not so great things. Sometimes it is hard to change our way of thinking but it can be done...and I did just that!

So, when I look back to how I was at the end of 2010 and when I look at how far I have come in just a short time, I am completely and totally AMAZED! I am proud of myself and I am also proud to know such a great person who has decided to commit herself to helping others.

THANK-YOU for all that you did for me!

Looking forward to the future,
A very HAPPY client :)

January 4th,  I was reading the paper at my favorite restaurant. I came across an article on  Hypnotism . This article invited all to an open house for that day to the Atlantic Hypnosis Centre to get a better understanding of hypnotism. I left and went straight there and it was the best thing that I could of done for myself. I kept an open mind and gave  hypnotism a try as Darlene was so easy to talk to and had the compassion and understanding that I needed for this addiction I had with food and understood just what I was saying and how I was feeling. I was at my highest weight ever and I didn't like myself let alone love myself.

It has been 11 weeks and I have lost 45 lbs and found myself as I know now that it is okay to like yourself and love yourself for that matter. I've gained so much more then I went looking for . I'm so proud of myself and Darlene has taught me that I should be. Not only have I lost weight but I've gained self respect and my health has greatly improved with my Doctor taking me off some blood pressure medication and my sugar level has stayed between 4 and 7 since the first visit. I could not have done this without Darlene MacInnis  in her kind ,caring and compassionate way . It feels like we have knew each other for years and when I go she does not rush me and listen with her heart . Darlene really does care and that makes me want to return because what I have to say is really important to her.

It has been a real life style change and now I'm really living healthy. What a blessing Darlene with her life coaching  along with the hypnosis has been for me and my health. I'm sure looking forward to a longer healthy life style with this new found energy and love for myself. I could not have done this  without Atlantic Hypnosis Centre and that special lady (Darlene MacInnis) with the big heart , I have a total new outlook about myself and know that I have added life to my years by changing things. I would love to see my family and friends fine this new found life style as it is so close if you will just reach for it .

"Hi Darlene

I could be a poster for you. Once again THANK YOU!

I decided to take my 7 year old daughter to see Darlene as she was having some emotional distress over her father and I separating. Though it had been 3 years since we had separated, she was still having several moments where she did not feel good in her heart, so she described. After a couple of sessions with Darlene, I noticed a subtle shift in her emotional demeanor. She appeared to be lighter and more carefree and the "bad" feelings in her heart became less and less present and when they did surface at the odd time, she would go in the special place Darlene had created for her during the session. I am very glad and fortunate to have had Darlene's warm, trustworthy and professional help for my daughter.

I went to see Darlene because a good friend of mine highly recommended her as she was making good progress in regards to a personal issue she was dealing with.
I had been doing much inner personal work on my self esteem for the last few years and could see that I was making great progress as well. But somehow, there was a place I still could not reach and it seemed to be at a subconscious level. Darlene's hypnotic therapy was the perfect and final step to my feeling good and positive about myself. It took a few sessions and then I noticed that the little things that would bother me about myself just did not anymore. It was as if a switch had been flicked off and I felt free of the burden of self criticism and my energy could now be spent on more worthwhile and meaningful things.
So I am very grateful to Darlene! Thank you. K.B.

Darlene MacInnis - This email was received from a client 24 hours after her first session for treatment of extreme panic attacks . These attacks happened many times throughout her days and for the past many years. 

“Everyone has seen a huge difference in me already. I know it usually takes a longer time to make a change, but I have been so much happier that my partner even said I feel different to him (energy wise). He cuddled me last night for hours just because for once he didn't feel the tension I had carried for years and I was comforting him versus him usually comforting me.

Since I've left your office I haven't had a panic attack. Not even a mini panic attack where I hyperventilate about 4-5 times. My dreams have become placid and more random imagery than a series of gruesome events, and I've been so happy that I've almost been making people nauseous I've been so cheery. I know that I will probably have one soon, but even this long of a distance between them I haven't had in close to a decade, I'm very optimistic.

I don't remember ever being this happy...ever. I've been smiling constantly and everyone I come in contact with sees it. So much has happened in the past 24 hours that I never ever thought I'd be able to do...today I stayed home alone for close to 20 minutes, not only did I not panic but I slept, and slept soundly. I haven't been alone since I was 13 without taking such a bad panic attack I've almost had to be brought to the hospital.
