Years ago, as I was building my executive career, I used self hypnosis to enhance my ability to picture the outcomes I wanted for work. I found it very effective then. Now that I have retired from a robust, high-​stress career, I found that I was getting blocked from achieving some of my personal goals.
I turned to Alison because I liked the fact that she is a clinical hypnotherapist and that her comfortable office is in a nice professional building. I immediately found that she is extremely personable and is wonderful to talk to. I trusted her and felt that she was the exactly right person to guide me on my journey.
Initially, I wanted to lose my corporate weight. Not a massive amount but enough to warrant extra help. Personally, I did not want to do another diet. Not without fixing the things in my head that were eating at me.
I bought the Unilocal deal offered for my first session which included a weight loss MP3 session that I could listen to anytime I wanted. I was so pleased that after that first session, I bought her four-​package offer on the spot. Money well spent because the gains and insights I received have gone a long way to solving some major problems and completely removed any lingering bitterness I harbored.
I notice that there are several folks who thought the other reviews were not helpful. I am not sure why but hopefully by describing the process, some will try using hypnotherapy as the powerful tool it can be in achieving one’s goals.
Let me describe a typical session for me…
I would start by talking to Alison about something I learned or something that had been bothering me. I found that by doing this, it would help Alison deliver a more effective, personalized session and ultimately helped her develop the personalized MP3 session that comes with the four session package. (She sent it to me after my last one-​on-​one session with her.)
We would reach a logical ending point in our conversation and then she would then guide me to relax deeply through breathing and closing my eyes. As I went deeper into this relaxed state, I heard every word she said and was cognizant at all times of her suggestions yet I was fully relaxed and open to the ideas she was giving me. Each session was designed to work through what was bugging me and instilled in me confidence and focus that would get me past any sticking point that stood in the way of my goals.
She would then tell me to open my eyes, and each time I would feel exhilarated and liberated.
Through my sessions, I have broken through a few plateaus, realized that my corporate weight is a symptom rather than a cause and I am on my way to my perfect weight. I am happier than I have been in years. I do a daily session using one or both hypnotherapy sessions she has provided me. I have found through trial and error that doing a session mid-​day is most effective for weight loss.
At Alison’s suggestion, I have begun to journal again. This, too, has been most effective in helping me focus on some areas that were heretofore a little fuzzy and this alone has produced some wonderful surprises.
catherine r. expressed it well in her review… when I listen to Alison, I always feel much lighter and angst free — that is a BIG thing.

From the minute I walked into Alison’s office, I felt safe and supported. She gently and skillfully guided me through exploring the issues I am facing and identifying some key underlying issues. She then offered some very helpful tools to address those issues and a lovely guided hypnotic process that allowed me to go deep inside and experience peace and healing. I really appreciated the session and know that it is and will provide ongoing benefits.

Alison was the first hypnotherapist I’ve ever seen and I immediately felt comfortable and safe in her presence. She explained hypnosis and was really skillful at both making me feel at ease and understanding my particular situation. I left feeling much lighter and equipped with some visuals I could tune into to help me manage my anxiety and general state of being.

Alison is the ultimate professional, always on time and present. She has an uncanny ability to know what you need. She holds safe and holy space during her sessions.
I went to see her because of anxiety issues and she helped me identify my triggers so I could diffuse their power.
I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

I went to Alison because my weight is affecting my stamina and mobility and I have tried many things without success. I understand how to eat healthy foods but I have a stubborn, rebellious inner child who refuses to cooperate.
Alison is committed to the benefits of changing eating patterns and choices that can be integrated into my life style permanently. She begins each session with an interview to understand my self-​talk and learn about positive steps that I have taken. She integrates these into the protocol for the portion of the session when she puts me into a light, pleasant hypnotic state.
She offers two wonderful bonuses for challenging times between sessions. She is willing to return phone calls if I fall off track. And, she made a downloadable MP3 for me to listen to between sessions.
And, now for the first time in six years, the scale is showing my healthier eating choices.
