I joined Alisa's program in 2015 and I lost 67 pounds in Hypnosis 2 Change Group Weight Loss Program. I have had a weight problem for 40 years, since early childhood trauma turned me to food to numb my emotional pain. Nearing 50, I feared that I wouldn't live long enough to see my young children grow up, graduate college due to my excess weight which had finally caught up with me and was causing all kind of health issues. I turned to Alisa and her hypnosis 2 change weight loss program as a last ditch effort to finally stop my eating out of control. I have always been able to lose weight in the past by white knuckling it, fighting cravings, but it was never a long term solution since the "want" for the junk food never left, as soon as I stop the "crazy starvation diet", the weight came back! I have lost the same 40-70 pounds four times in my lifetime and always put it back on plus more. But, enough about me, let me tell you about Alisa! I was seriously skeptical that anything could help me but since I have done Hypnosis 2 Change Group Weight Loss Program with Alisa, food is just not important to me anymore. I just don't care about it. I don't think about it all the time or obsess on controlling my eating. I just eat healthy foods when I'm hungry. That's it, the "big secret!" Due to my non-obsessing, and not thinking about food all the time, I am seeing the numbers on the scale and inches go down! it sounds so simple, but if you are a compulsive over eater like I was, the idea that food is just something to fuel your body and you don't think about it otherwise is a miracle. I'm not obsessing, thinking about food all the time. Best part is, I have so much more time to do what I love like art, music, nature, to "fill" myself up with, instead of thinking about what I'm going to eat next. I acknowledge YOU Alisa for creating a miracle Weight Loss Program and for helping me to lose 67 pounds in JUST 9 months! Thanks to you I live and I follow my heart! read more

Over several months, with the help of an amazing nutritionist, named Betsy Thurston, I was able to change my eating habit, ideas about food and lose 30 pounds for my wedding in 2013. Shortly, after the honeymoon I began gaining the weight back. After gaining back 15 pounds, she suggested digging dipper and figure out why. She had a previous client find success with Alisa and recommended I see her I signed up and started the group weight loss program in November 2013. After the group sessions were complete I began seeing Alisa for individual session. This program turned out to be so much more than about losing weight. I can't express the immense gratitude I have for Alisa and what she does. This was a life changing experience for me. I lost 39.8 pounds and 16.7 inches but gain so much awareness about myself. Here are just of few of the things I gained: · The confidence to trust in myself and tackle my fears. One of my fears was leaving my job. Every part of my body knew I needed to change jobs but I was scared. So I stayed and did nothing to make my situation better. With Alisa's help I quit a job that wasn't right for me, even though I didn't have a new job yet. I now have an amazing new job! · The reason I was biting my nails and how to finally stop. · Clarity, resolution and forgiveness for myself and others, relating to deep-seated issues that I've carried with me for a while. · A map and a plan for my life that will create the life that I want not based on others opinions or my irrational fears. · The spark to start living and to stop waiting for things to happen to me; to stop neglecting myself and start putting myself first. Alisa truly cares about her clients. She gives you all she has and really fights for your success. If you are sincerely ready to make a change, Alisa can help you get there. read more

Alisa is not my first therapist, but she's certainly the best I've ever seen. I knew from experience that hypnosis and NLP can help a person overcome PTSD and tremendous phobias. I went to see her to deal with issues being brought up from repressed memories of my childhood trauma. I'd been to a couple of psychotherapists and counselors for much of the initial spade work, so to speak, but knew that those techniques would only increase my pain I was in for an extended period of time before I got on top of things. Over a 5 week period, I was able to get a handle on the events of my traumatic childhood, and painful divorce and I started the process of letting go of the pain my mind had been trying to hide from me for most of my life. The relaxation CD she gave me has helped me to maintain emotional balance and peace far more easily than in the past. Alisa is kind, gentle, caring, considerate, and well-versed in her methodology. I would whole-heartedly recommend her to anyone considering a hypnotherapist for any reason. read more

First time i heard about hypnoses i said to myself : hmm interesting!! but I've always been afraid to go for it. I heard from my mom about someone that came to the US to see a hypnotherapist to quit smoking so I thought it was worth it to give it a shot. When I was introduced to Alisa, I was very skeptical and little bit afraid of where all this will take me. I used to smoke almost a pack a day, sometimes more....After 1 month therapy with her I quit smoking, and not only that but I learned so much about myself . I couldnt be more grateful to myself and Alisa for taking this journey together. I am now smoke free for 3 years and a half. Did not gain any weight, did not go "crazy" because i don't smoke anymore.. :) Its just an awesome feeling, I don`t even remember that i used to smoke, and when I do I just praise myself over and over again that I quit. I tell everyone that I know how great my experience was and hope more people will have the courage to go thru a journey that will change their lives forever !!! read more

I enrolled in the weight loss program 5 weeks ago and it has really changed my life. I will say that I was a bit skeptical at first but I everything so far has gone exactly how I was told it would and I expect that to continue until I reach my weight loss goal. I am 5' 8" and was 200 lbs. I have currently lost 17 lbs. in 5 weeks. In past I have done other programs and lost weight but eventually gained it back. I have seen the results of a previous program participant who lost the weight she desired and has been able to maintain the weight loss with no special diet or exercise routine. Alisa is great and very passionate about what she does! She really helps you get to the root of why you have had trouble with weight loss in the past. After completing the initial stage of the program, I now enjoy food more and have a real desire to eat better and live a healthier, more fulfilled life. read more

I took on Hypnosis 2 Change for weight loss, and I am left with my relationship to my body, to food transformed. The exercises of this workshop have you get to your bones that "Your body is the temple of your soul," so why treat it like a dumpster. At the end of the course, I felt the impact of the dangerous way of being that I had adopted as an individual and that we have inherited from our culture about health and well-being. I have no doubt that I will reach my goal weight because I am now present to the root causes of my relationship to food and to weight gain. And to top it off, I had great fun coming to this point. I find myself taking new actions without any sense of sacrifice. This is how I treat the temple of my soul. And I have a sassy new body. read more

I have been dealing with sleeping issues for all of my adult life that I eventually began depending on sleeping pills. After stopping that nonsense, I tried everything from tai chi, acupuncture, and I even traveled to India to learn special meditation for insomnia. Though those were great for my overall life, they didn't help with my sleeping problems. I chose Hypnosis2Change because of the great reviews from Kudzu. I am eternally grateful I did. So how are things now. Well now I listen to the CD that Alisa recorded for me before I sleep and I am out within 5 minutes. I also wake up feeling well rested, even after just 6 hours of sleep. I can't thank Alisa enough for my health and over all wellbeing. I strongly recommend Alisa. read more

After just completing the weight loss group therapy program, I wholeheartedly recommend Alisa and Hypnosis2Change. This exceeded my expectations on every level--I am filled with gratitude that I found something of this depth, and a guide with such integrity and skill. I immediately started losing weight-- 5lbs and over 10" within the first week--but the physical changes seem almost immaterial now compared to the profound emotional and mental shift the program facilitated in me and the other people in my group. I could hardly believe how quickly and effortlessly everyone made huge strides. This is one powerful space for finally transforming yourself and healing whatever has been preventing you from reaching your potential. read more

Amazing results. Mine was weight loss group therapy in March 2011 and I already lost 39 pounds. I tried everything and I could not help myself eating when I was depressed, sad, nervous, bored, name it! I had a food addiction and all diets only gave me temporary results. When I met Alisa at a trade show in Atlanta, I was suspicious. Hypnosis sounded like magic to me and I did not believe in it. After doing my research and reading reviews online, I spent $750 and took the 5-day course. I have no regrets and actually would have paid a lot more if I knew the results I got without any efforts. It's like I don't look at food the same way. Just as a way to nourish myself. Pretty amazing stuff. Thank you Alisa. read more
