Life Coaching for Life Success

Scientific studies have shown that hypnotherapy can effectively help with several psychological and physical conditions. Research published in journals such as Psychosomatic Medicine and The International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis has demonstrated that hypnosis can significantly reduce anxiety and depression, and has also been proven effective in treating chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia, migraines, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

In addition to pain and anxiety, hypnotherapy has been scientifically validated as a tool for improving sleep, breaking unwanted habits, and supporting weight loss and smoking cessation. Clinical trials have found that hypnotic suggestion can enhance self-control, reduce cravings, and help people maintain behavioral changes over time. Studies using brain imaging techniques have even shown measurable changes in brain regions linked to attention, memory, and self-regulation during hypnosis. While it is not a cure-all, the evidence suggests that hypnotherapy can be a powerful complementary treatment when used alongside traditional medical or psychological care.

How Hypnotherapy Affects The Brain and Why It Works - It’s Not Mind Control!

Hypnosis affects the brain by changing patterns of attention, perception, and self-awareness. Brain imaging studies using fMRI and EEG have shown that during hypnosis, activity increases in areas related to focused attention and imagination—such as the anterior cingulate cortex and prefrontal cortex—while activity decreases in regions involved in self-reflection and external awareness. This means the brain becomes highly focused on inner experiences while filtering out distractions. Hypnosis also alters communication between different brain networks, especially the default mode network (linked to daydreaming and self-talk) and the executive control network (involved in decision-making and focus). These changes help explain why suggestions made in hypnosis can feel more vivid and believable, and why people can experience real physical and emotional shifts, such as reduced pain or anxiety, even though they remain conscious and in control. The reality is that ALL hypnosis is self-hypnosis in that you need to want the changes, regardless of how Hollywood science fiction movies depict hypnosis for entertainment. If a person doesn’t wish to make the changes, then no changes will take place.

What to Expect from Your Hypnotherapy Session

Hypnotherapy is safe, relaxing, and highly effective. During your session, Keli Joy, a certified master hypnotherapist, will guide you into a deeply relaxed state of focused awareness. In this state, your subconscious mind is completely open to positive suggestions for changes that you desire. We'll work together to identify the triggers that lead you to hold beliefs and engage in behaviors that create limitations in your life, and replace them with healthier coping mechanisms. You'll leave the session feeling empowered, in control, and ready to embrace your new way of being. Depending on the complexity of the presented problem, you may notice some results after one session. More complex issues require more extended care and may require other therapeutic interventions. Since Keli Joy is also a trained psychotherapist and is an expert in human behavior, you can feel confident that you are in good hands.
