Evelyn Talmadge helped me uncover what it is I really desire, through hypnotherapy. Evelyn's sessions helped me relax and focus on eliminating the self-limiting and self-defeating confines of what I thought "others" expected of me; and instead, understand what it is that I want in order to be happy and true to who I really am. Evelyn is also a great connector of people and has dozens of resources to help anyone get "unstuck," in their personal and professional life. She is a great listener and a great coach when you are in a rut, which we ALL suffer from time to time. A few sessions with Evelyn will move you forward. Hypnotherapy works. I give Evelyn my highest recommendation as a coach and hypnotherapist.

I had never been hypnotized before and while I was not nervous about it....I was curious. I arrived at her location and we spoke for about 20 minutes during which time she explained the process. Then we went into the pre hypnosis protocols which I found interesting and then, she took me into the hypnotic trance state. I was consciously aware of everything happening in a deep state of relaxation for about another 20 minutes and then she brought me out. Her voice is very soft, feminine and reassuring while I was in trance. When I came out I was feeling very good (almost giddy) and we spoke some more about the experience as well as the need to follow up. I will be returning to see her in order to completely work out my issue. It was a rewarding experience and definitely recommend her to anyone.

I appreciated the time Erica took to deeply listen to the challenges I wanted to work on and then to implement a highly personalized session. It really helped get me mentally and emotionally unstuck, and decreased my anxiety and its presenting behaviors. I also appreciated getting an audio recording of the hypnosis she wrote for me. It's so helpful to be able to listen to it on demand.

She simply guides me along the way, offering her advice and wisdom. I've learned so much from her... My only regret is that I wish I had found her sooner. If you're seeking a non-judgemental, supportive, informative, honest, and compassionate therapist-- Liz is the one to see.

So if you're not familiar with past life regression - this is what Donna does. I've always kind of…read morethought "who cares about past lives...how does that help me now?" Well I was SO pleasantly surprised!! First of all I felt like I could trust Donna. We did an interview then she used hypnosis to find another lifetime. I did!! It was in Victorian England. After the session the circumstances of my life and death from that life sort of paralleled the emotional highs and lows of this life -like I was still in the midst of learning those lessons. In that life I played this squirrelly type of piano. I wasn't happy about it, I felt my husband was just showing off. When I got back home I googled 'a tinny sounding upright piano from France' ( got all that from my past life) turns out it was an instrument called a Celesta. What???? Super fun to find evidence that was real!! I really think if you are interested in this. You should check out Donna. It was fun, relaxing and very very interesting!!

With last year's rash of deaths of loved ones, I came to the obvious conclusion that I only have…read moreone life. That I know of anyway. Is this how I want to live it? For the first half of my life, I was a super fit athlete who ate a lot of cookie dough. For the second half of my life I worked all of the time but didn't change my eating habits. My goal is to not recognize myself by the end of this year. I will not continue looking into the mirror and longing for the thin and fit person in me... sexual metaphors aside... when I realize that all I have is NOW. Suffering = pining for someone from my past to be in my future, or lamenting that I am a size MILLION when I want to be a size 8, or saying I do not like freckles and red hair when I do not have the money nor vanity of Michael Jackson to change that about myself. All I have is NOW. The goal this year is to shed weight like kids shed clothes at Barton Springs... fast and painless and fun while, at the same time, going through an emotional breakup. This is where I knew I needed to talk with someone who could help me. With a BA in Psychology, MS in Counseling and a background in business management and corporate coaching, Pam Yagjian takes hypnotherapy to transformational levels. She listens for about the first half hour or so and takes notes. Then she hypnotizes and continues to have a conversation with my usually hidden self. Some of it I remember and some of it she reminded me of when I was no longer in a sleep-like state. She utilizes the initial talk time to guide what she says while you are hypnotized. She uncovered what I spent years hiding. It seemed fairly effortless and peaceful. We are all beautiful to the extent we allow ourselves to be known as beautiful. YOU are beautiful. Beauty eluded me, living in a body that got bigger with every breakup. What I learned with Pam was how I linked love and food at a profoundly deep level and how I put on pounds to protect myself from pain. Thirty less pounds later with 40 more to go, I can say that she works if you do. Hypnotherapy plows through deep issues in a short amount of time. All of that bullshit that I was unwilling to come clean with in talk therapy or that I simply cannot even remember that was keeping me from living the life I wanted ... is revealed in the hypnosis. Well, not all in one session... but enough to make a difference. I once said to her, "Thank you so much for helping me get through this breakup, I thought it would take years to get over this and it has taken months. You are awesome!" She smiled and said that she just listened to ME... and that I was awesome. Very empowering and very low ego. Her website includes a quote that I can see in her and how she works: "The greatest good you can do for another is not just share your riches, but to reveal to him his own." ~Benjamin Disraeli I have recommended Pam to a friend dealing with severe pain (Crohn's disease mixed with severe Arthritis mixed with debilitating Migraines) and Pam taught her to hypnotize herself so she can manage her own pain. The pain has not gone away, but now my friend has a way to actively deal with something over which she felt she had no control. I have recommended Pam to a friend who wanted to quit smoking and I learned that Pam has a 3 visit quit smoking program. She starts with an interview and if you do not really want to quit smoking, she refuses to work with you. Brilliant. I have recommended Pam to my dentist for working with patients who cannot deal with the associated pain and fear of dental appointments but who desperately need to have their teeth cared for immediately. I have recommended Pam to a friend dealing with an issue from childhood that was getting in the way of her relationship with her children and I learned that some people only take care of their own issues when they realize they may be damaging their loved ones. Now I have recommended Pam to you. All we have is now.

Using extremely gentle and skillful techniques, Pam teaches you new ways to cope with physical or emotional issues. I saw her several years ago for physical pain. My experience allowed me to refocus on what was happening in my life and to use gentle relaxation techniques to allow my body to heal. To this day, I use her powerful self hypnosis techniques to de-stress or for any issue I want to negate. Each time I worked with Pam, my nervous system fell into a very deep sleep through her methods. And while I could hear her talk to me and send my subconscious suggestions, my body was unable to react. She explained that 20 minutes of self hypnosis is equal to several hours of deep sleep. Whenever I tell her she is amazing, she turns it around to "You are amazing." Pam is a healer of extraordinary measure without ego or judgment. I recommend her for whatever is hurting you emotionally or physically. Your life starts the day you enter her office. Do it. Now.
