Virtual Hypnosis & Consulting

My name is Michael Conrad. I'm a retired psychologist with 42 years experience, specialized in CBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and a still current clinical hypnotist since 2000. Now offering virtual hypnosis sessions, first one free, thereafter $100 per session, using my preferred video platform MEET which is already on Android phones and can be downloaded on iPhones.

Your journey begins with a free phone call where I can understand what you are going through and create the necessary steps to help you achieve a healthier and happier you. This is followed by a free virtual hypnosis session, only to see if you are hypnotize-able or are resistant and therefore need additional free sessions until you enter hypnosis. After hypnosis is successful, paid sessions are set up to address the issues you need help with.

The mind controls the body. If it is your mind that is making you feel physically sick or mentally unbalanced, then it is your mind that can make you healthy again. And when your willpower isn't working effectively, then hypnosis will help. However, don't expect years of what you're going through to disappear in one session. Several sessions may be necessary. There is no such thing as a one visit cure just as there is no such thing as one pill from a bottle of pills is all you need.

My hypnosis sessions can lessen and even eliminate symptoms such as ptsd, depression, stress, anxiety, fear (of dentists, heights, etc), a lack of motivation, personal as well as professional exhaustion and burnout, and so much more. Hypnosis is also very effective in eliminating a dependency for nicotine, alcohol, illegal drugs and pain meds like opioids without experiencing withdrawal pains.

What exactly is hypnosis? The word hypnosis was originally created to describe the process you put yourself through in order to fall asleep, named after the Greek god Hypnos, the god of sleep. It's lying in bed and letting go of all the thoughts and stresses of the day, eventually limiting your thoughts to how warm the blanket feels around you or how soft the pillow feels beneath your head, and without even realizing it, you drift off to sleep. 

There are only two ways to be hypnotized. The first is by being talked into letting go of all the thoughts and stresses of the day, as explained above. This is called progressive relaxation, and can take around 10 minutes to accomplish, followed by the hypnotic word, sleep.

The second is called mesmerism. You are mesmerized when you can focus your attention on something to the point where you are oblivious to everything else going on around you. It's also called tunnel vision. Named after Franz Mesmer, and you can achieve this hypnotic state of mind in as little as a couple minutes. The end results of either technique are the same, and again, followed by the hypnotic word, sleep.

Here is how mesmerism works. Your hypnotist will ask you to focus your eyes on a particular object (visual tunnel vision) while focusing your hearing on only the sound of his voice (audible tunnel vision). If you have followed instructions, then your eyes will appear blurry, out of focus, distant. At this point, a part of your mind opens up and becomes willing to accept suggestions, but only if they are coming from someone you trust. It will also reject anything that goes against your moral and ethical compass.
