I suffered from crippling anxiety for years. It started in the middle of grade eight and was so bad that I had to be homeschooled. It took over my life. 
     My mother took me everywhere trying to help me but nothing worked.. I was even put on medication but it just didn't seem to help. I started seeing a phycologist every week which I wasn't happy about but went to anyway. 
     Then, one day my mother saw an ad in the paper for Atlantic Hypnosis saying that it could help anxiety. We figured that we might as well try it as we had nothing to lose. We met Darlene that week and my life was changed forever!
     After my very first session I told my mother "this woman is going to be able to help me", and I was right. With Darlene's help over the next year or so and continuing to see my phycologist I finished my homeschooling, wrote my GEDS, started a beauty blog, took a makeup course to become a certified makeup artist, and now work full time as a cosmetician at Lawton’s.
      I am now a happy, confident nineteen year old enjoying my life! Don't get me wrong, I still struggle with anxiety once in a while but I now know how to deal with it and not let it take over thanks to Darlene!

     It’s really amazing how much Atlantic Hypnosis Centre has helped me. I was stuck in a number of aspects in my life. Relationship, work, diet etc. Darlene took the time to listen to me to help figure out what we needed to work on first. I honestly couldn’t get over how quickly my behavior started to change, I’ve been hypnotized before but never got results as I’ve gotten with Darlene. 
     It’s been almost 4 months since my last session and I’m still benefiting. I ended an unhealthy relationship I felt stuck in for a 5 years! I’m making healthier choices eating wisely. Lost weight and surpassing my fitness goals. I’m more confident and assertive than I’ve ever been. AND the only thing I changed before all this happened? Was going to Atlantic Hypnosis Centre. Thank you very much Darlene!

     For years I have been plagued by sleepless nights. The “wide-awakes” at 3am became routine and I was always aware of the passing of the night. I was never well rested.
     Darlene at Atlantic Hypnosis has helped me to turn my sleep deprived nights into what they should be- nights of blissful sleep. That, in turn, has dramatically changed my days. I am rested and ready to rock and roll, and no longer sleep obsessed!
     Had I known it was this simple and hypnosis could provide these results, I would have done it years ago. I used to dread going to bed and the inevitable struggle to get to sleep and stay there. Sometimes that dread rises up when I’m not paying attention, then I come to my senses and realize I’ve got it licked!
     I am amazed at how quality sleep leads to improved quality of life.  So, it’s easy, accessible, private and it works- what’s stopping you? 
     Darlene is professional, deliberate and detailed. She provides a customized approach to whatever challenges you may be facing. She provides a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere and arms you with tools to help yourself.

     I suffered from a variety of anxiety related problems throughout my early 20s (mild to severe) which I managed to get under control on my own with lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise which allowed me to keep most of these problems at bay for many years, aside from some general or situational anxiety on occasion, until some recent major life changes brought my anxiety back in full force with a vengeance.
     I kept telling myself that as long as I'm living a healthy lifestyle and do what I did before it will eventually go away, but despite my efforts it seemed to worsen to a point where it started affecting my relationship with my wife and daughter and my overall quality of life.
     I am somebody that is very familiar with anxiety, how and why it happens, how to deal with it etc. but sometimes knowing exactly how something works is not enough to resolve it on your own.
     I started to seek help earlier in the year, determined that I would not allow myself to mask my issue with medications.  I had seen a therapist for several months focusing on cognitive behavioral therapy, and another therapist specializing in emotion freedom technique (tapping) & bodytalk.  I gained a lot of insight from both, and had some minor wins but overall and after many sessions the anxiety continued to affect my day to day life.
     My wife recommended that I try Darlene at Atlantic Hypnosis Center, she had worked with her in the past (as a youth worker) and has also been to many sessions with Darlene over the years as well.  I was totally skeptical about hypnosis in general, but later discovered that my skepticism was more or less related to not understanding how or what hypnosis actually is.  I've always said to myself there's no way someone would ever be able to make me bark like a dog, I think movies/tv had skewed my view and understanding of this practice.  I thought what the hell? I have nothing to lose so I committed to five sessions.  My first session was essentially testing the waters, I was anxious and found it hard to relax, as mind wanders easily and the first session was geared toward bringing my anxiety and my past to the forefront.  Each session after that got easier and easier, by my second session I was much more relaxed and almost asleep by the time our session was over. It started to feel like it was actually making a difference.  After the third session my major anxiety issue was practically non-existent and was no longer affecting my day-to-day life, I honestly didn't even feel like I had to continue on with the final two sessions, but did so anyway because I wanted to keep on top of it.  I started in early April and finished my fifth session early July.
     I found Darlene to be very unassuming and super easy to talk to.  She has comfy chaise lounge and blanket in her office and always makes sure you have a glass of water.  She has a great personality and is just one of those people that you feel like you could talk to about anything, and is genuinely interested and eager to help.  Some people are just naturals when it comes to helping others and Darlene is one of them.  I also like the fact that she records each session and emails the full recording to you promptly.  It is very helpful to have the recordings for a quick refresher if you need it in the future.
     I would say at this point I'm feeling 99% cured, I still have some very mild anxiety and haven't ruled out the fact that at some point it could possibly affect me again in the future, but it's comforting to know that Darlene will be there to help me through it if/when needed.
     I plan to do at least a few sessions a year as a preventative measure.
     With insurance the sessions cost next to nothing, but even if you don't have coverage my opinion is that you owe it to yourself to give it a try, it is well worth the investment.  Nothing is more important than your own well being.
     In the end I discovered that all of these different types of therapy methods essentially lead to the same thing, replacing negative thoughts with positives.  The same thing is done with CBT, EFT, and hypnosis but the approach is different.  For me personally CBT and EFT didn't work well because I tended to overthink and second guess it, and had a hard time doing the exercises on my own (one might say that I was being lazy, but I really did give it a lot of priority and effort).  Hypnosis is essentially doing the same thing but with a more hands off approach, you are allowing someone else to put the positive affirmations in to your sub-conscience.  It could be different for others, one approach may work better than the other but from my experience hypnosis was the clear winner for me, and I have absolutely no problem recommending Darlene to anyone out there who is struggling.
     Thanks Darlene!

     Just wanted to let you know that I've been smoke free since I saw you last week. For the past few days the only challenge was keeping my hands busy every so often. Water and eating lots of oranges helped. Mentally, there's no doubt in my mind that I'll always be a non smoker from now on. But if the cravings start coming back I'll definitely give you a ring. 
     Thanks again!

     I had a session recently with Darlene and was practically jumping off the couch to get going in my projects and life EVEN before the session was over! Darlene took what I shared with her about what I wanted assistance with and was able to create THE PERFECT approach or me. What could have been a 6-week process of transition was done in a session! I am so thrilled with the results! Thank you Darlene for what you offer and what you do! Blessings,

     I had my hypnosis sessions for my phobia of needles in 2013 with Darlene. Today after 3 years of no sessions in person I was still able to get blood work done with only a slight panic attack that I was able to control by taking out my phone and listening to a session. My anxiety has also been controlled now and I am able to function on days that I would have been bed ridden before. It really has changed my life for the better and I don't know where I would be today with out it. I highly recommend the Atlantic Hypnosis Centre!


​Amy Christine

 





     I moved from my home country for my dream postgraduate program.  If the language barrier, cultural differences, contrasting weather conditions and loneliness were not enough, I also had to deal with my bad habits, including a toxic relationship. 
     I really wanted to work on getting better.  I tried counseling at the university and got some answers to work on my problems, but the biggest problem was me being unable to keep myself safe. 
     Then one night I read somewhere on the internet that many of our worst habits are hiding deeply within our subconscious mind.  The paragraph stated that all that we control about ourselves is in our conscious mind.  Therefore the battle against bad habits is hard, because their roots are deeply buried out of reach of our subconscious. 
     Looking for a way to access my subconscious mind I found hypnotherapy as the best option.  By the time I found the Atlantic Hypnosis Centre my professional life was going downhill, I was about to be kicked out of the program, trapped in a toxic relationship and paralyzed by uncontrollable anxiety. 
     I really wanted to fix my mistakes, but I couldn't even stop crying to help myself. 
     I made an appointment and had my first -of many- sessions with Darlene, a licensed and widely certified hypnotherapist and coach.  The experience was treasurable. I sat there sobbing and pouring out my feelings, my aim to fix the mistakes and my inability to do so. 
     Darlene first suggested to get rid of the boundaries -in my mind- with toxic people.  I was taken into a journey within my subconscious mind, and interestingly, I was still aware of my surroundings.  When the hypnosis finished, I got "homework" of repeating some affirmations to support the session.  I did so, and never opened the door to that toxic relationship again. 
     This was so amazing to me! I continued going for a couple of more sessions to work on specific bad habits and fears that impeded me reaching my goals.  Every time I went to a session it was recorded.  I would get the recording and occasionally a little homework that pushed me out of the "hole" I felt I was in. 
     I realized the strong power that our mind and thoughts have on our lives.  I realized how much one can do by unblocking the obstacles we built in our minds. 
     After some sessions and hard work and commitment, I got the chance to catch up in my professional path.  I finished my postgraduate successfully, and even got the opportunity to extend my founded position for one semester after graduation.  I got into a healthy and caring relationship.   Today, I'm writing this experience from a different province where I got a new job.  Trust yourself to have the answers for your problems. Trust those who can help you to achieve this.  I trusted Darlene to help me with no regrets and would undoubtedly recommend her.





     When I first visited Darlene at the Atlantic Hypnosis Centre, I was a “basket-case”, as I liked to put it. I was riddled with anxiety and depression which, in turn, caused very bad insomnia. I suffered from low self-esteem and rock-bottom self-worth. I believed that I wasn’t “worth it” to anyone and that I would never truly be happy.
     The hypnosis sessions with Darlene enabled me to calm my mind and weave my way through the maze of negative self-thoughts that I was prone to. The sessions were recorded and emailed to me so that I could listen to them before bed. This helped to put me in a relaxed state and enabled me to sleep better.
     With Darlene’s help I was able to let go of anxiety, resentment and stress related to the past. And surprisingly (at the time), I realized that I am “worth it” to someone…MYSELF!!...and that only I can control my life and future. That clarity of thought allowed me to take some big chances and make some changes in my life that I would never have dreamed of doing before.
     I left my job, left the province and went on an adventure. It was a scary prospect as I’d never lived or worked outside of PEI ever, but I felt I was up for the challenge. Throughout the last few years I have avoided falling into the trap of not being “worth it”.
     Thinking positively about myself for what seemed to be the first time in my life, allowed me to be open to an exciting, reciprocal relationship. I have met the most amazing, wonderful man, my soul-mate, who loves me like no one else ever could. We support, trust and respect each other without question. He is my rock!
     I am grateful to Darlene for giving me the foundation for dealing with my anxiety. It really helped to get me to where I am today.

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've been smoke free since

I saw you last week...

After my very first session I told my mother "this woman is going to be able to help me", and I was right.

This new sense of confidence through hypnotherapy is wonderful.

Darlene took what I shared with her about what I wanted assistance

with and was able to create

THE PERFECT approach or me

Her voice was with me Not only was I calm and peaceful going into my surgery, I was ready.

     On May 29th, 2009 I went under hypnosis to quit smoking. I was very skeptical at first however I was ready to quit and wanted to make sure it was a permanent thing. I am happy to report that I am now well over 90 days smoke free and have never felt better.  I have never had a craving or anything of the sort since going under hypnosis. I can be around people who smoke and it is like I never smoked a day in my life. It’s wonderful.  And the health benefits are even better.  
     
A few weeks later I was a having a very difficult time dealing with some old anger issues and wondered if hypnosis would work for that to.  So I went under hypnosis again and again it worked.  I have been able to let go of the hurt and anger of a bad marriage and was able to move on with my life and allow myself to have someone in my life again.    
     I no longer feel the anger or the hurt when I speak to or see my ex husband.  It’s an amazing feeling after years of hurt and anger limiting my life. 
     Hypnosis is the greatest thing that could have ever happened to me. I can now say that I am smoke free after 22 years of smoking, I have let go of the past so that I can move on to a great future.  The best part of all of this is that it was done by someone that I trust completely.  She made it very easy to allow myself to let go.  It was an amazing experience and I plan on having her work with my son who has been diagnosed with ADHD to see if it helps him.

     At the beginning of November 2009 I tried hypnosis for the first time. To say I was skeptical is an under statement...but not anymore!
     Darlene made me feel comfortable from the moment I entered her office and the whole experience was relaxing and beyond anything I had hoped for. I ask Darlene to help me to accept something in my life that was causing me stress and unhappiness. With just one session I can honestly say I have experienced a feeling of 'letting go' and moving on that I hadn't thought possible.
     Thank you Dar for helping me...you're the best!

     I am so pleased with the results of the hypnotherapy I received at the Atlantic Hypnosis Centre.  Darlene MacInnis, the consulting hypnotist explained the process to me in a professional and calm manner, and answered any questions I had with clarity and reassurance.  After a car accident I was involved in 8 years ago, I have been suffering terribly with severe anxiety while I drive and as a passenger.  With the wonderful work of Darlene, the anxiety that once prevented me from driving even if bad weather was only forecasted, has now been greatly reduced.  I can now drive without hyperventilating and feeling overwhelmed with panic.  This new sense of confidence through hypnotherapy is wonderful.  

With sincere gratitude,

Nancy Monaghan     





     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 shed 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 known each other for years and when I go she does not rush me and listens 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.

     I'm back and Thank you sooooo much. I couldn't believe it - how calm I was for the flight and then Hurricane Igor! What an experience. It was like I was 20 again. Awesome.
     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.





     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.
     I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted off of my shoulders and I feel like I'm re-learning how to live. I have no idea how to thank you, and we've barely hit the top if the iceberg...I can't wait to see where we can go with this.
     Thank you so much...

     Before coming to Atlantic Hypnosis Centre, I believed that hypnosis was hocus-pocus. Nobody was less of a believer than me. Now, hypnosis is the best thing I have ever done. The benefits I received through hypnosis are, I no longer crave cigarettes and I have not eaten sugar since I came to Atlantic Hypnosis Centre. So, a general over-all feeling of good!

     I see a big difference. I feel more positive. I now find that I have the ability to make changes in my life when things are not working. I feel better about myself. Before coming here, I needed to change a lot in my life about how I viewed myself. 
     I feel that my self-confidence has grown throughout the process of hypnosis.

     Our daughter was having difficult time with being at school and anxiety. I would like to acknowledge that hypnotism has helped her deal better with her difficulties and is able to put things in perspective in a positive way. She is more outgoing and does not seem to allow anxiety to run her life. I would encourage anyone, no matter of age, to consider hypnotism as another helpful tool to overcome  life's challenges.

     Before leaving for Toronto to wait for my double lung transplant , I experienced so many dark and trying days. It was a feeling that seemed to have no relief in sight. Darlene became a wonderful friend before and during this journey. Her sessions brought me hope for the future and hope for a new life. The hypnotherapy CD's that she made for me to bring to Toronto brought me peace many times during the long 11 month wait. I had 3 false calls along the way and listened to these CD's each time while waiting to go into my life changing surgery. Even though those calls didn't happen, my call finally did come and her voice was with me right until I was rolled into my operation. Not only was I calm and peaceful going into my surgery, I was ready. Thank you Darlene for what you brought into my life.....light.

     I came for my addiction to alcohol. If I don't keep that straight I don't have a life. I feel more free to talk about my addiction. I don't try to cover it up anymore. Hypnosis helped me with my cravings for alcohol. Learning to not think about it anymore, I find that I do not worry like I used to before. My sleep is tremendous now. Before I would wake up and have to get up. Lots of nights only getting 3 to 4 hours sleep, some nights, not at all. I find that it has helped in my relationships too. I listen to my recordings every night.

     I first met Darlene MacInnis just over a year ago, and I can tell you that my life has changed significantly for the better since meeting her.  I have struggled with life-long anxiety, and am -- wait, make that USED TO BE -- overweight.  I had tried hypnosis in the past without success, so when the Atlantic Hypnosis Centre was recommended to me by a friend for my anxiety, I was a bit sceptical.  I shouldn’t have been...my sessions with Darlene gave my mind peace, rest and focus, drastically improved my relationship with my partner, and aided me in a 50 pound weight loss.  I have never in my life felt so at ease in my own skin, and Darlene has played a pivotal role in this for me.  I will forever be grateful for her coming into my life!

My quit smoking journey.
     Nov. 26/08
was to be my original Quit date...the day my granddaughter was born..I had eight months to prepare..why couldn't I quit? "I'm not ready yet" "I enjoy it too much" "I don't smoke in the house, car or around the kids" " I only smoke half a pack a day what can that hurt?"and on and on it went.
Fast forward to late spring 2011. We attended a benefit dance ( ironically for someone who needed a double lung transplant) and i am horrible for silent auctions, gotta drive those prices up. I happened to see a gift certificate for Atlantic Hipnosis Centre and thought "yeah why not?" long story short I got it and it sat on my desk until a month before expiry. That would be around the time my granddaughter (now 3 years old) says " Meme don't smoke it makes you cough cough cough" It was time to make that phone call. Far be it for me to let a gift certificate go to waste, so I called wanting to quit for the new year. Darlene graciously extended the certificate for a few days...I had a month to prepare..
  Jan.09/12 10:00 am
     No snowstorm... guess I gotta go. Smoked my last cig before leaving home with a large coffee. Three flights of stairs.. oh my!!! I finally made it..pause to catch my breath.. man I'm out of shape..still trying to catch my breath when Darlene comes out..and from there on end I have never quit so easy it my life!!! 30 years I was a slave to smoking. Oh sure I quit when I was pregnant and nursing but always started again as soon as I was done. Quit for lent, 2 months, 3 months but Always wanted that cigarette. This time I swear when I walked out of the office it was like I Never Smoked!!! I had tried group hypnotism before but it only lasted 2 days.
  July 09/12 10.00 am
     Six months smoke free!! and down 20lbs!!!
     No words can express my thanks to you Darlene!! My children,9 grandchildren, and family thank you!!

My life has changed significantly… my sessions with Darlene gave my mind peace, rest and focus.

Darlene's hypnotic therapy was the perfect and final step to my feeling good and positive… It was as if it was a switch had been flicked off and I felt free...

     I moved from my home country…If the language barrier, cultural differences, contrasting weather conditions and loneliness were not enough…

     I made an appointment and had my first -of many- sessions with Darlene.

on our lives

 It feels like we have known each other for years and when I go she does not rush me and listens 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.

I don't remember ever being this happy...ever
I feel like the
weight of the world has been lifted off of my shoulders and I feel like I'm

re-learning how to live. 

Hypnosis is the greatest thing that could have ever happened to me… The best part of all of this is that it was done by someone I trust completely.

     I am somebody that is very familiar with anxiety... but sometimes knowing exactly how something works is not enough to resolve it on your own.
     I found Darlene to be very unassuming and super easy to talk to.  She has comfy chaise lounge and blanket in her office and always makes sure you have a glass of water.  She has a great personality and is
just one of those people that you feel like you could talk to about anything, and is genuinely interested and eager to help.  Some people are just naturals when it comes to helping others and Darlene is one of them.
     It's comforting to know that Darlene will be there to help me through... if/when needed.
     
from my experience hypnosis was the clear winner for me, and I have absolutely no problem recommending Darlene to anyone out there who is struggling.

Today after three years of no (follow-up) sessions in person, I was still able to get blood work done. 

I feel more positive. I now find that I have the ability...

Hypnosis helped me with my cravings... I find that I do not worry like I used to...

I would encourage anyone, no matter of age, to consider hypnotism as another helpful tool to overcome life's challenges. 

Thank you sooo much… I could be a poster(child) for you.

 So, it’s easy, accessible, private and it works- what’s stopping you
     Darlene is professional, deliberate and detailed... whatever challenges you may be facing. She provides...you with tools to help yourself.

Hypnosis is the best thing I have ever done...

I am so happy to have (had) the experience 

The "bad" feelings in her heart became less and less...
