I went into hypnotherapy with mixed feelings about 2 weeks ago. I was unsure if it would be worth my money. Especially because hypnotherapy wasn't covered by my insurance, the price seemed steep. I had been suffering from severe anxiety, insomnia, night terrors and depression for about 2-3 years at that point. In addition, tons of weight loss, and anger. I had tried about everything that you can imagine. The biggest issue was that it was affecting my work/academic life. But on top of that, I was not having fun at all. Functioning in day to day life had become a chore. I was suicidally depressed for at least a year of this period Out of all the hypnotherapists that I called and whose reviews I checked, Rich came off as the least money oriented. There are hypnotherapists who on the phone jumped at the opportunity to sell me "packages" of hypnotherapy sessions for 1000+ dollars. Rich was open to splitting up the cost of the session up and seemed more concerned with solving the actual problem. I came into Rich's office and explained my symptoms, as well as what I personally felt was causing these particular symptoms. Despite me being fearful, anxious and uncomfortable with opening up to someone about my issues, he was calm and logical as he helped point out my mistakes and flaws in my thinking process/worldview. He then crafted a hypnosis track for me. I was hypnotized in the room once, and then afterward he gave me the track, I was told to listen to it every day for a month. If you are looking for a silver bullet for your problems; look elsewhere. You won't just walk into his office and then walk out cured of your ailments. If you are looking for a valuable tool that when used consistently used will help you significantly improve your mental health over the course of 1-3 weeks, then you are looking at the right yelp page. It has been 17 days and I feel near 100% better. The effects of hypnosis weren't overnight or immediate. But if you take the time to listen to the hypnosis tracks that rich gives you daily, as well as put in the genuine effort to act on their messages, then I would be surprised if you didn't at least have a noticeable improvement well worth the money within a week. Keep in mind; I have been to at least 15-20 psychotherapy sessions and tried a slew of medical treatments over the course of 3 years. While the first few sessions of psychotherapy worked wonders, there was a point of diminishing returns, and after the 3rd session, I felt there was little to no improvement in my well-being. I have been to one single hypnotherapy session and listened to the hypnosis tracks daily for a few weeks now and feel nearly 100% better. Hypnotherapy gets to the root of the problem quickly and effectively read more

My experience with Rich was truly life-changing. I've suffered with anxiety for as long as I can remember and decided to give hypnotherapy a try after my mom recommended it to me. I was extremely skeptical, but things were starting to get out of hand and I was desperate for help. I figured I had nothing to lose by giving it a shot. I went into my appointment not knowing what to expect at all. I've seen those hypnosis shows at the fair and wondered if it would be anything like that. Rich was so kind and easy to talk to, it was just as though I was having a deep conversation with a close friend. He wasn't judgmental at all and I was surprised that someone I had just met could be so insightful. He was able to identify the root cause of my anxiety issues after just a 2 hour conversation. I used to work in mental health, and I don't know any psychiatrist or therapist that's able to achieve such results so quickly and effectively. Within 4 days of listening to my track, I noticed a significant improvement. I had never felt so amazing in my life. I had never realized how crippling my anxiety was until it was gone, and it was like I was seeing life through a completely new lens. Not only did I feel emotionally different, but also physically. I noticed a huge improvement in my personal interactions, as well as my performance at work. It's been over 6 months since my session, and I've struggled a bit with keeping up with my tracks. I started to fall asleep while listening to them, so Rich was kind enough to create ghost tracks for me to listen to during the day. Every time I start to feel my anxiety creeping back up again, or if I need to prepare myself for a stressful situation, I refer back to them. As others have mentioned, the results are highly effective, but not immediate or without effort. I find that maintaining the results requires consistency and a great deal of effort to train my mind to be receptive. Thankfully, Rich keeps in touch and continues to follow up on my progress to make sure I'm staying on the right track. It's obvious he truly cares about his clients' well being and is willing to go above and beyond to help in every way possible. Thanks for everything, Rich. read more

Yes! yes! yes! Rich is someone who will help you achieve that which you seek. This is my first review on Yelp because I got propelled to let people know that THIS is the right place for them! I remember my Yelp search not knowing, wondering. Go see this individual, you will benefit and your spirit will grow, glow and gleam from his commitment to you, his special manner of deep listening and what he is able to identify to allow you to flow to your highest good. I came to Rich because I felt stuck. He gave me the rarest commodity in the West-his time. "I am result oriented, not time related." I thought, "thats interesting but surely can't be." I told him i needed to see him and needed as much of his professional time as I could get. Rich gifted me his time. I came in at 0530 and left his office at 1030 PM. At no point did he make me feel I was using more than was allotted to me, not one second. I felt his commitment, his gentle way of identifying stumble thoughts and his gentle reminders that I am a Perfect vessel to my subconscious profound. What moved me most about Rich and this experience is the words he didn't use, those cliche words that suggest to our subconscious or makes our mind play havoc by thinking we are the opposite of those words. I had no chance for negative thinking. My subconscious could only get auto suggestions from the words he used to make that inner light glow. Rich is a spiritual teacher that has been sent to guide you from fear, transcend it into faith and love.. all of it for YOU! Thank you Rich for your commitment to Me. That a stranger could do this without looking at his clock is something unique, generous and blessed and thank you for helping me see through the illusions of the mortal world and cross the bridge from any form of fear to love. Greatness is an experience! :) read more

I came to hypnosis with an open mind because I am motivated to make changes in my life. As a result of taking Hypnotize Yourself Slim, I not only embarked on a journey of weight loss but of great self-discovery. And I found among my classmates, those who came to it with a positive attitude enjoyed a really amazing experience. The class helped me let go of my inner critic and with it, a lot of anger. Now, I sleep better. And I am generally in a happier frame of mind all the time. I am constantly aware of how good life is, how many things during the day there are that can make you happy if you let them. Even others view me differently now. And my happiness is starting to rub off on them. What I liked most about the class is Eric's approach. He is fair-minded and generous to everyone. He took everything step by step and was careful to explain everything we needed to know and understand. Without hesitation I would recommend Hypnotize Yourself Slim to anyone. There are days I feel like the weight is just dropping off all by itself. I am losing weight without "dieting." I am beginning to learn a more healthy way of eating (or not eating) and it really feels good. I have more to accomplish, but I know I will get there. read more

I have a problem and it is a work related issue. It affect me so much that I just cannot handle it myself. I was searching online and I found Rich on Yelp. I was not convinced that I need professional help, but I just cannot find a way out. It's been torturing me in the past couple months and I need to do something about this. I will not get into detail about my issue. I made an appointment and able to have my first consultation. I cannot believe that he listens to my every details and able to address my comments with advise. The hypnosis therapy does a miracle work for me and I feel much better now. Rich has the passion of helping people and he is willing to go extra miles to help. I called him the next day for comfort and he just spent his time on the phone with me to go thru and to comfort me. He is a real person that you can feel his care and his passion in his profession. I received his follow up emails and I am so touched by his effort. This is what make him a successful therapist. I would strongly recommend him to anyone and you will be satisfied. I am still working on my issues and I know Rich will be behind me whenever I need his support. read more

I had a session with Rich a while back. I was. struggling with depression, my past marriage and my children not to mention PTSD. I couldn't sleep every night.Rich helped me see positive ways to look at both past and moving forward. He had recorded two different versions of sleep therapy as well as explained and pointed out things I need to improve in my life. Time to time, when I feel troubled or feel stuck, I reach out to Rich on the phone. Every time he has given me directions to how to approach things in life positively and made me understand with different real life examples to help me with my struggles and problems. I have never experienced anyone like Rich who is easy to talk to, makes his time to help me when I am down and low, very personal and professional at the same time. I recommend Rich to anyone wanting to better their lives and learn important factors in life that are often neglect and ignored. Rich teaches values, morals and ethics all in very simple steps. Thank you Rich for all your help and advice. You truly are one of the greatest person I have ever met in my life. Much appreciated it. Mia Henderson read more

After deciding to look into Hypnotherapy for relief for my wife from the effects of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain I came across Rich and Remedy here on Yelp. Some of the reviews led me to give Rich a try. I was allowed to sit in on the consultation and my wife and I were both very impressed with Rich's easy going nature as well as his obvious skills in getting to some of the root causes of what may be causing her illness. Don't let Rich's young looks fool you, he is an old and wise soul and a compassionate and caring listener. Rich gave us an mp3 of the Hypnotherapy session and my wife has been listening to it twice a day since our visit. We really like Rich and felt like our visit to him was worth what may have been years of therapy with a psychiatrist. We highly recommend Rich and Remedy for anyone seeking to make some positive change in their lives. read more

I have seen Rich for two sessions now and have the third one tomorrow. I tried hypnotherapy about thirty years ago and was not very impressed. I saw a Living Social special and decided to give it another try. I have found Rich to be very professional and experienced. He spends a lot of time on the interview and asks many questions. With that he is able to customize your session to just what you want to work on. I am very impressed with him and know he will do very well in his business. After the first session I stopped my night time eating which was really getting out of hand. I already eat a good diet and get lots of exercise but was eating too much food. Rich really helped me with be satisfied with eating less. He can work on many issues, so if you need help focusing and getting onto what you need and want I recommend seeing Rich. read more

I went to see Rich this time for advice about work life balance and some concerns that I had about the future. He was still patient and listened and had some really good metaphors and examples that helped me see my life in a different light and I share this with my kids. He has a spiritual background and a funny sense of humor that had me cracking up! We created some graphs and he showed me his theory on behaviors that made a lot of sense. I was expecting to be in a cliché office and be asked 'Well how does that make you feel?' But not Rich -he kept asking different questions until we got to the root of the problem. I thought I would be going back for session after session and getting my bank account lessened, but nope. He said it would take only 1 session and it did! read more

Rich is sharp, energetic and so full of positive energy, not to mention he is the youngest hypnotherapist in the Bay area. I needed direction in my life and needed to change few things. Just after my first session I felt positive about my situation in life. And after the second visit I could really feel the positive changes happening within myself. Rich has been helping me ever since I joined hypnotherapy in every possible way, even though I am not going for sessions anymore. What makes Rich amazing is his passion to help his clients in every way he can. I am so glad I tried hypnotherapy and that too with Rich. It has given me so much hope and tools to change my life. Thank you so much Rich! Thanks a bunch! Alka read more

Glad that I have seen your website Rich. Previously, I have tried several meditation and hypnotherapy services to address my concerns regarding the professional development but of no use. When I first spoke to Rick on Phone, he made me very comfortable, probably to ensure that I can share my problems. I have undergone two sessions and for each session, I have received a recorded MP3, which I listen to when I have free time. Whenever I listen to these MP3, I feel empowered. The best part of the Rich's service is the personal attention he gives to the client. He is very patient and listens to our problems/concerns and come up with the solution. Thanks again for your service Rich. read more

I just had my second hypnotherapy session with Lynda Nguyen. I am still very new to hypnotherapy but everybody has to start somewhere. Even though I went in with an open mind in the first session, I accomplished more in the second session than the first one. So, don't be discouraged if this is the case for you! Lynda is very professional, patient and a skilled hypnotherapist. She is very responsive and reliable in both text and email communications. I feel very comfortable sharing my afterwards feelings with her candidly and unfiltered. I can clearly see myself as a returned and happy client of Lynda Nguyen for future hypnotherapy sessions. Thank you! read more

Remedy Hypnotherapy has a huge background in therapy, NLP, Hypnotherapy, military leadership, ​a Masters degree in Business, a Masters degree in Education, a Masters degree in Social Work -for therapy...seriously! He is the therapist's therapist. Free recording, free check ins, free assignments. If you can't be helped by him maybe you are working really hard on not being helped. He helped me raise my income, become emotionally balanced, and understand why only 7% of people hit the top tiers in success! He was talking about raising his prices real soon so I'd make that call. :) read more

Rich helped me out by listening to my problems and then persistently working with me even though I probably got in my own way. Many of my problems were rooted in my childhood and it brought up things that I had long forgot about but was able to address and deal with. I searched for a long time before choosing Rich because I wanted to work with the best and my searching paid off! It has been 3 months now and my results has still taken hold and it was money well spent. I have recommended him to my family members who probably need a lot of help and I am sure he will fix them too! read more

I created this yelp just to write this review. I want to break it down how I felt when listening to the audio on my iPhone 5s. First this calming voice came on, and it was a guy but he talked so soothly and he instructed me on what to do and how to lie down. I thought it was funny when he mentioned not lieing down in a car lol. But I was completely relaxed and my mind was focused on the beach it was amazing. I pictured water thrashing back and forth as the guy spoke to me. I was absolutely taken by the whole thing. I'm looking to get further into hypnotherapy. read more

I was doing sessions with Rich in person for just over six months before I had to move out of state and he still continues to check in and help in any way he can to maintain the goals I've reached. My sessions were primarily for stress, anxiety and weight loss and I was so surprised at the amazing results! The sessions were very professional, comfortable and there was never any pressure. This therapy has worked so well and I am so grateful for it. I would recommend this business to everyone! Thank you so much for all of your help! read more

Going through a really hard time with my family, I've attempted to take counseling at school and it doesn't seem to help. A friend of mine recommended me try this hypnotherapy Audio on this their site and I felt weird about it at first but it sort of relaxed me. It's all about being alone and in a quiet place when you listen to it, which is what i did. All in all it did help me, and I've been using for a couple of days now and everyday I'm starting to feel a lot better. read more

So me personally I'm in love, I think I found something that definitely helps me. I'm continuously always upset and can't ever seem to get myself to relax, and I work in a very quiet environment, and still I'm always tense. I like to plug in some head phones and just let the Audio play, heaven in my ears, lol weird thing to say but I loved it. My friend recommended it to me and that's the only reason I created a yelp account lol. read more

I've had a few sessions at the home office which I have found to be very relaxing as well as comfortable. After a couple of sessions I could feel a difference. I called Rich for business success (The Master Hypnotherapist who conducts the sessions) and truly feel that this is a great way to get to the root of the issue that could be holding someone (myself) back. I recommend seeing Rich if you're looking into hypnotherapy. read more
