Common questions

Hypnosis & mental performance coaching FAQ

What is mental performance coaching with hypnosis?

It is private coaching that combines practical mental performance tools with hypnosis, a natural state of focused attention, to help you change habits of thought and reaction that hold back your performance. It builds focus, composure and confidence under pressure.

Who do you work with?

Executives, entrepreneurs, sales leaders and professionals, competitive athletes of all levels, students and exam candidates, and teams and organizations that want group seminars or team training.

Is hypnosis safe, and will I stay in control?

Yes. You stay aware and in control throughout, and nobody can make you do anything you do not want to do. Hypnosis feels like a deeply relaxed, focused state, similar to the calm just before falling asleep.
