About Me

I was born and raised in Los Angeles County, CA. I became a psychologist in 1978, specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, with additional studies in neuroscience and physiology. Since then, and to this day, I have continued to read hundreds of books on similar subjects in order to stay up to date on the most effective therapeutic techniques and results.

Whatever it is you're going through, whether it be mentally, emotionally or physically, if you were to Google search it, you would find CBT to be at the top of the list of therapies. CBT is the fastest and most effective form of therapy to date. Mainly because it involves taking notes and doing your homework.

I eventually studied hypnosis for 10 months at the Hypnosis Motivation Institute in Tarzana CA, graduating in 2000, which was 5 years before YouTube was created where I could have learned hypnosis techniques a lot sooner than 10 months.

I have since Incorporated hypnosis into my CBT sessions in order to achieve faster and longer lasting results, especially with serious mental, emotional and physical issues.

Be aware that a typical hypnotist that does not have a medical background should keep their techniques strictly for comedy and entertainment purposes and leave the serious mental, emotional and physical issues to us real medical professionals.

It was in 2020, during the covid crisis, that I moved 140 miles north of Los Angeles, above Bakersfield, in order to care for my aging parents who have since passed away. This was when I retired the word psychologist, but continued to do the same work under the new name of Consultant, a word that does not require a license or insurance.

I have clients that are actors, singers and athletes who have a much higher level of stress, anxiety and burnout, and a session with me prevents them from resorting to alcohol or drugs in order to unwind during or after a very demanding day. My sessions with them averages $1,000 a day because I usually work with them for an entire day. I'm either backstage or behind the camera, working with them during breaks, reinforcing and synchronizing their mind, body and spirit for optimal health and happiness.

For those of you who are not the elite, and therefore do not need to see me in person, I can offer you therapeutic consulting or therapeutic hypnosis, or both, either virtually, or by texting, emailing and even with occasional phone calls.

Virtual hypnosis sessions are $100 per session, your first session being free, using MEET which is already on Android phones or my second favorite which is WhatsApp, or whichever video platform you prefer.

If you do not wish to experience hypnosis, and only wish to speak with me as a retired psychologist, then you can contact me for an entire day through texting, emailing or even occasional phone calls, for only $100 a day, and again your first day being free.

Just remember that since I retired, I am no longer licensed or insured and can still help you, just not under a medical title. You can now consider me a consultant with 42 years of therapeutic experience as shown on my business card above.

Your first session is free. Once you feel that session was effective, then additional sessions are only $100 and payable just before the session begins. Payment is through PayPal.

As you may know, all medical professionals keep their list of clients strictly confidential. And I am no exception to that rule. My clients, both individual and corporate, are kept confidential. Not even my closest friends know who my clients are or their issues, which is why you don't see testimonials on my website.
