She is very professional and a beautiful spirit. My first session was amazing and Shara gave me exercises to practice between our sessions that have helped me with my anxiety.

After watching a few of her videos I was pleasantly surprised by how calm, soothing and relaxing her voice made me feel.

That's such a shitty thing to do to a person needing help. I HAVE insurance and I'm sure she gets paid for Medi-cal patients. It's already bad enough to have to be on Medi-cal but when people refuse to treat/help you based on it, it's an especially shitty feeling. Shame on you Renee, if you had other reasons for declining care to Medi-cal patients you should have made them clear before hanging up on someone.

Her angelic voice guides you as you connect with your intuition to guide you through whatever unbudgeable issues are presented. In particular, this experience was different than any hypo I have received because there was one thing my soul needed and Julie was able to pull that out of me for a total and complete recovery. I give Julie my highest recommendation. I refer my clients to her, she's great!

Even though I wasn't sure if I was "doing it right," Julie guided me through the stages of relaxation so that I felt very comfortable, and led me to a place where my mind was pliable. At this point, she took me on a little journey which elicited some some great insights about my current situation. After the hypnosis was over, we talked a bit about the things I "saw" and how they relate to my life. She was very compassionate and warm - overall a very calming presence. I am looking forward to doing it again to see if can get any deeper.

My life changed on April 9th, 2026 when I met Angela Fritz on my hypnotherapy session. She will…read morealways be my angel that new I needed help and came to give me back my peace that I desperately was missing in my life. She was so warm, accepting, with a beautiful smile, knowledgeable, professional, non- judgmental. I was allowed to become very relaxed to tell my story and be comfortable. I responded well to my hypnotherapy session and the process was not scary. This was my first time and it wont be the last. The first day and everyday after my hypnotherapy session has made a huge impact on my life. I no longer react to loud noises and people talking around me and or near me. I feel calm and for the first time in my life I can breath without having to feel fear. It took me a life time to make the call to Mrs. Angela Fritz, since I am now in my 60's. I was a very startled child and developed becoming startled to the point of screaming, buckling knees and falling. I also would accumulate hair specifically in the bottom hem of my pants. I would get shocked by touching anything. I was so confused. Everyone around me would not intentionally startle me but it was unavoidable. Home, work, restaurants, stores it didn't matter. I really believed that life was this way due to my difficult childhood. Growing up was not memorable. What really literally pushed me to make that call was being so tired of being tired of my childhood experience and reliving my fears. The first day and everyday after my hypnotherapy has been a relief of letting go of the past and knowing that it no longer controls me! WOW! I am telling everyone I know about Mrs. Angela Fritz and how amazing she is and how she is transforming lives. Make an appointment don't wait a life time like I did.

As with the other reviews that have been made, Angela is wonderful. She approaches her clients…read morewith great care and compassion. She takes the time to listen, understand and formulate a plan to fit everyone's needs. She provides space for the clients to explore their own journey and what can be done to remove blockages and move forward to a healthier and whole person as well as manifesting things in your life. If you tried other modalities, such as Psychiatry or Psychology and it didn't provide the all-inclusive outcome, I would highly suggest reaching out to Angela and trying Hypnotherapy. Hypnosis may be a foreign concept and even seem a little non-traditional for some. However, I would recommend it. The process helps the client drop unhealthy or stagnate thinking and feelings that don't serve them and keeps them from growing into the fullness of who they are. My secessions have helped me greatly from growing and thinking about my own transformation. Best wishes to you on your own journey.

Every timely surgeon said I could not smoke anymore as my bones would likely not fuse. I lied to him and kept on going. I always knew smoking was bad for me but besides being an addict, I loved smoking and I felt it was part of me and I did not want to quit. One day a neighbor saw me smoking and said she had quit with the help of Wanita. After keeping Wanita's phone number on the back burner for about 6 months, I decided to give it a try. I will complete one year as a non smoker in 9 days. I never crave them, I don't think about them, yet they don't bother me (my friends who smoke still smoke next to me). It's like she implanted something in my brain and I never looked back. The session was about 8-10 hours long but it was a delight. Not only Wanita is fantastic at what she does, she is also one of the nicest, coolest, most positive and most fun people I have ever met. Highly highly recommend :)

I was referred to Dr. Wanita through a friend, in order to help with my test anxiety. As a new law school student, I found myself struggling with the stress of finals. In law school, whole semester grades are based on final exam performance. My first semester, I experienced a panic attack during one of my exams and got a "C". As a former straight "A" student, it devastated me. I was desperately in need of some help! Within minutes of meeting Dr. Wanita, I knew I had come to the right place. She has dedicated much of her life to perfecting the art of hypnosis and test taking. Dr. Wanita taught me simple techniques for studying and memorization. Also, she used hypnosis to calm my nerves and find my inner confidence. Within a few visits, my study skills greatly improved! My next semester grades were remarkably better. I credit my success to Dr. Wanita's test taking expertise! During my visits with Dr. Wanita, I realized her ability to help me with far more than just law school tests. I began seeing Dr. Wanita regularly for therapy and listening to the recorded hypnosis sessions every night while falling asleep. She understands me like nobody else - we even joke that we are like soul mates! I've experienced a significant improvement in my anxiety and depression. Also, my general outlook on life has improved. I look forward to my meetings with her so much because I always leave feeling wonderful! Dr. Wanita genuinely cares about all of her patients. Her wisdom is endless! She has useful information about everything and can help with any personal problem. She has an uncanny ability to make her patients feel self-confident and content with the world. She's helped thousands of people quit smoking, or pass the bar, or overcome any obstacle they may face. Dr. Wanita truly changes people's lives!

I was pretty skeptical of hypnosis in the beginning so I couldn't believe that my anxiety went down from a 6 (on a scale of 1-10) to a 3 in just a week! Amanda is really kind, direct, and collaborative. She encouraged me to stay in touch with her in between sessions so that she could adjust our next session accordingly. She has a very soothing voice that put me under and I felt really safe with her. Before this, I thought of hypnosis as a really "woo woo" thing you had to believe in, like it was magic or something. Turns out it's pretty concrete and I'm looking forward to seeing a significant long-term change as I finish my round of sessions and keep using the tools.
