I was searching for hypnotherapy in my area and came across Achieve Awareness Hypnoses on google. I…read morewas struggling with significant stress and anxiety related to my work. I wasn't sure if hypnotherapy would help me or not, but I decided to give it a try, especially given the five star reviews this place had! I was so happy to meet Jackie! I could NOT believe the time she spent with me! I think my first session might have lasted about 3 hours. She really took the time to get to know me, my background, my current concerns and goals. I am not the type of person to take time out for myself, especially not 3 hours on a weeknight. Initially, it made me anxious to spend that much time there. I think Jackie KNEW exactly what I needed. I wasn't used to taking time out for ME and it felt very weird, but I realized after my three sessions with Jackie, it was that, that I really needed. I thought the handwriting analyzing she did was really interesting and surprisingly spot on! Jackie is someone who really works hard to get to know her clients and really wants to help people achieve their goals. I left all three sessions SO CALM and feeling so PRESENT. I found my mind not racing a mile a minute over analyzing all of the stressful things I had to do, but instead, I was present and calm with my conversations and it made me feel much more connected to my family. While I am still struggling with managing my stress, I will say I really enjoyed my time with Jackie and I never once regretted the money I spent. It was WELL worth it! If I tried hypnotherapy with her again, I would go during the day, and not in the evening after work when I was struggling to keep my eyes open (I may have fallen asleep the first two sessions which may have interfered with me getting maximal results). I HIGHLY recommend Jackie. There was something about her that made me feel sooo comfortable and I really enjoyed my time with her. I hope to return again one day!

I was at a point in my life where I felt "stuck" and unable to cope with anything. Jackie was very understanding and knew exactly what I needed. Even if I didn't. After 3 visits I feel like a new person. I do plan on future visits for other things I would like to work on, but for now I feel mentally healthy and I am moving forward with a new attitude. Don't hesitate to call Jackie with anything you are struggling with. I assure you she will be able to help you.

I am implementing what she taught me into my daily life and learning more about myself each day. Thank you for sharing your light, love, and knowledge with me, Michelle!

In 2019 Michelle helped me break through a lot of resistance with visiting my mother. During one…read moreof our active meditations, I saw a clear vision of my mother having passed away without me having visited her 4 years from then. After seeing this, I got to work doing everything I could to prepare a visit with the wife and kids for the first time to my Mom's house which happened a few months later. Our family is extremely grateful to Michelle for her help in getting us together! I originally came to Michelle for a past life regression which was a lot of fun, a little scary, and helped put together many of my memories that did not make sense before. Our sessions are so much fun I come as often as I can which is one to four times a month for the last year now. Many of my challenges in the last year have been in my business and finances where Michelle has proven an incredible listener and adviser as well as trained hypnotherapist. I am excited to see what 2020 brings with Michelle and maybe I will see you on my way out of her office one day? Love, Jerry Banfield

Dr. Hayden is outstanding. He's professional, grounded, and extremely skilled at what he does. He…read morelistened carefully, set clear expectations, and made the whole process feel safe and results-focused. He recommended a Reiki session before hypnotherapy. I was skeptical, but I trusted his process--and I'm very glad I did. The results have been impressive, and I feel genuinely better in a way that's been hard to achieve with other methods. If you want real change and you're ready to do the work, I highly recommend Dr. Hayden.

I was referred to Tammy by an employee who quit smoking after seeing her. I had 5 sessions with…read moreTammy (fall 2019), and if you're even the slightest bit interested, RUN, don't walk, to have the free consultation at least! It doesn't have to be 5, but I had multiple issues. I had no idea how truly effective hypnosis is, but now I lament not doing it 15+ years ago. It's such a powerful tool, I now believe it should be everyone's go-to method to tackle any unhelpful fears, thinking, or habits. My problems I wanted to work on were: * Lifelong general anxiety (I'm 36... I was previously on meds that worked great, but had bad side effects) * Severe lack of assertiveness (not helpful in my security job, or in life) * Utter lack of motivation * A moderate phobia of having my back turned to people I'd never realized that hypnosis could even be a viable option for such problems, but now I'm recommending it to everyone when I get a chance. It's made a subtle, but massive difference in my life. All 4 problems I listed have improved at least 60-80% depending on which. Tammy referred me to some supplemental materials to reinforce some of it, and I've since found additional material to listen to for reinforcement of other things if I desire it. My mental state--my life--is so much better! I don't get anxious for no reason... I can speak up and say things I need to say to people with little to no anxiety... I've been getting all kinds of things done, some of which I've put off for years... and yes, even the phobia no longer runs my life; I can sit in a restaurant with my back to people now. In fact I just did it last night. Before we began, I'd read up on hypnosis enough to know that it's not mind control as we often see it depicted, and I learned how the subconscious basically runs the show of our daily life, including all our deep seated anxieties and habits. You can spend a fortune over years or decades with a psychiatrist trying to change it with the fraction of conscious thought we can utilize, or you can spend a few sessions with a hypnotist like Tammy and change those subconscious issues directly with positive, empowering suggestions. The first session opens up the subconscious for positive change in general, and even that by itself resulted in changes that I hadn't even planned to address, but wanted to make, such as having more control over my spending--I simply noticed that I suddenly had zero difficulty deciding to make something at home instead of getting fast food, for instance... an empowering change by itself. A nice thing is that she offers sessions both in-office, and virtual in-home via the Zoom app, and I had sessions both ways. If you have a problematic schedule, or think you'd feel more comfortable at home, I can honestly say the virtual sessions were just as effective for me. Either way, it is such a wonderful experience, being guided to that state of deep relaxation! If you're reading this you must have at least one problem you'd like to change... so go see Tammy and become empowered to make that change! Don't wait, life is short, become your best self!

The tools she gave me--especially affirmations like "I am calm, relaxed, and confident"--truly rewired how my body responds behind the wheel. Unlike traditional therapy, which only made me dwell more on the fear, hypnosis tapped into my subconscious and helped me feel in control. I'm amazed by the transformation and genuinely grateful for this experience. You have to be ready for it and committed to making mental change. I'm really proud of myself and feel liberated to drive where I want to.

Now that was a 5 star pre-natal massage. The word massage does no justice for the healing power…read morethat Evelyn's hands possess. After my horrible experience earlier this week with another "pre-natal" massage, I found comfort and healing with Evelyn. This woman is very soothing, sweet and inviting. You feel the warmth of her soul from the moment you meet her. She's located in an office complex where the space is shared with other holistic providers. Her room is relaxing and well appointed. She, herself, has a tender touch about her and you can't help but find yourself relaxed when around her. My massage was so much more. She stretched me, used hot stones on me, worked on the areas that my pregnant self holds most of my tension and overall healed my entire self. Her table is extremely comfortable with tons of pillows and wedges to prop your belly up. I actually caught myself dozing off at certain points. She was so incredibly healing that I bought a package of 5 and basically received one massage for free. Definitely a great dealing considering I was already planning my next visit before I even left the table. I was talking with her at the end and this woman had quite the work experience. She was a teacher for 20 years to young elementary students. She then became a yoga instructor, a doula, a message therapist and now an overall healer. She's pretty awesome and She is a god send.

I have had all positive experiences with two different counselors here. Jill Freeman, has been…read morehelping me since July after a traumatic experience. A medical condition prevented me from being able to get there physically so she helped me over phone conferences during those few months. I greatly appreciated her willingness to work with me over the phone despite the fact that it may not be the way she's used to working with people. My son ran into some issues at school being bullied at school to the point where counseling was needed. I burst into tears while even inquiring about getting an appt with him. Denise the receptionist was so sweet over the phone and said she would have Matt call me back (he was in a session) and she took it one step further by texting me his number to make it easier for me to call and leave a voicemail with my info. He called right back, set something up for the first available time he had. My son also went to speak with another counselor closer to home, but we kept our appt with Matt to see who my son felt most comfortable. Of course Matt won my son over as soon as he mentioned football and used sports analogies so my son could better understand the concepts and strategies Matt was teaching us. The other counselor we met with just listened and gave his opinions, Matt on the other hand got up, drew out a diagram that we could see and immediately was giving strategies on how to stop, walk away, and other pointers to get him in a more positive direction other than acting on his feelings and saying bad things he doesn't mean and will regret. We will continue sessions with both counselors as needed in the future. Obviously these other reviews are either old or biased. There's three sides to every story! I would recommend Matt and Jill to others.
