Hypnotherapy

Why does hypnosis work so well?

Hypnotherapy is a process where you are guided to focus on one thing to the exclusion of all others. It involves being in a state of deep relaxation while accessing your inner guidance, which helps you resolve difficulties in your life that keep you from living a full and active life. 

Do you wonder what a session feels like? It is similar to guided meditation—very calming and enjoyable, guiding you with positivity. The main difference is that during hypnosis, the experience will be solely focused on your personal intentions for the purpose of helping you achieve your goals, whether that involves resolving unwanted behaviors, healing emotional blocks, or overcoming fears.

It is your time for healing, clarity, and growth. People often find that the effects of hypnotherapy help them prosper on many levels in their lives. 

During our sessions, you will retain all control and awareness of your body. If—for any reason—you need to awaken, you will do so in a fully alert state, with all of the resources you need. You are the co-therapist, and I guide you expertly on this journey.

The power to heal and grow is within your control; I simply open the door for you to step into your power.

Hypnosis for Peak Performance

The Peak Performance Program

  • I help athletes perform at superior levels to achieve their goals. Whether it’s a personal best or a championship, you will feel more relaxed, motivated, and in the zone to accomplish what you have worked so hard for. The process is fun and easy, and you will notice that anxiety, doubt, and fear are things of the past. Let me help you master your performance and achieve your dreams.

Hypnosis For Athletic Performance

  • Hypnotherapy for athletic performance has the ability to help a person focus in such a way that they will not be distracted by negative thoughts or worries, but on their best possible performance. Hypnosis helps athletes enter a state of deep relaxation, which can reduce anxiety and increase focus, developing a sense of calm and confidence that can carry over into their performance.

Creating New Neurological Pathways

  • Hypnosis can help athletes identify and overcome any limiting beliefs or negative self-talk that may be holding them back. By replacing these negative thoughts with positive affirmations and visualizations, athletes feel more empowered and confident in their abilities, which can help them push through challenges and stay focused on their goals, even when the going gets tough. Hypnosis helps athletes by using visualization and imagery to see themselves performing their sport exactly the way they want to by tapping into their motivation and drive. This process creates new neural pathways in the brain, which equate to memories of performing the way the athlete would like to perform.

The Mind-Body Connection

  • When an athlete has a lack of confidence and doesn’t believe they are capable of winning or being “the best,” their body will pick up on these unconscious signals and help the person out by having pain somewhere, which prohibits them from continuing in the competition. This is, of course, not happening consciously or purposefully.

    It happens because the athlete’s thoughts have been running a negative pattern, and the subconscious mind is always trying to protect the person from mental pain or failure. The physical pain or injury comes about as a way out, rather than the athlete having to admit that they just don’t believe they are good enough.

  • Hypnosis helps athletes develop mental toughness and resilience by helping them build mental fortitude and increase their ability to handle stress and adversity. This can be particularly useful in high-pressure situations, where athletes may be more prone to making mistakes or losing their focus. When athletes stay calm, centered, and focused, they perform at their best and are less likely to get injured. Many well-known athletes have worked with hypnotherapists to achieve significant behavior changes that can result in gains in their performance while keeping them safe.

Testimonials

  • “Hypnosis and coaching from Lark helped me pass my board exam with flying colors. She made the process of testing far less stressful and actually enjoyable. I recommend the use of hypnosis to anyone who is preparing for any important test or exam. I came to Lark with years of test anxiety; I was overwhelmed and paralyzed by the pressure of my upcoming exam. She allowed me to reach that place of peace. Because I felt no anxiety walking into my exam it was easy for me to get a high score! I felt exactly how Lark described when I was in hypnosis – calm and prepared.”

  • "Thank you for giving me such a gift. I can't believe how relaxed I am now. I use my anchor and I drift off into sleep, I no longer toss and turn stressing about everything I have to do. Thank you, Lark.”

    David
    Stress Relief

  • “I woke up feeling relaxed beyond anything I have in my memory. It was as if we stole a spaceship and you flew us around Pluto and brought me back. I feel different, for the first time in a long time I don’t have any fear. I feel more positive about my situation and am looking forward to living life with less fear.”

    John
    Release Fear Around Health Challenges

  • “I love working with Lark Ericson. The results I get are quick and fantastic! She helped me with an excruciatingly painful compulsion that I have had since childhood. I felt so trapped, helpless and weak by this vicious compulsion that had me in its grips. With Lark's treatments, and her patient, compassionate, caring nature, I now have it under control. What freedom and empowerment I feel to finally get a handle on this! And, what remnants of that behavior that remains, which I must add are now few and far between, I handle with ease, immediately putting a stop to it if it occurs. I love that I have that control now. I was never able to do that before! It feels so good to come out on the other side of this horrible ordeal. Thank you so much Lark. You’re the best!”

    Releasing Unwanted Behaviors

  • "I aced my chemistry final! I used to get terrible test anxiety. I would start being anxious as soon as a test was announced. I took my chemistry final and failed it but my teacher let me take it again. In one session Lark was able to help me relax and gave me tools that I can use in any situation to help me calm down. All of my tests have been so much easier now that I am not so stressed out."

    Gwen
    Chemistry Final Test Prep

  • "I gave up smoking cigarettes years ago and I was so proud of myself, but I really only switched to vaping which I've done everyday for the last 15 years. I thought I was making a better choice. I finally decided to quit everything and Lark helped me so much. I now find vaping disgusting and the smell of cigarettes makes me sick! I am so happy to be free of this disgusting habit and I am saving so much money."
