I heard about NOVA Hypnosis and Wellness through my friend Michelle R, (who also wrote a review on Yelp.) I saw Michelle recently at a work conference, and she mentioned that she took a new position within her company that required her to fly frequently. Knowing that Michelle had a extreme fear of flying I was surprised that she would accept a position that came with such travel commitments. When I questioned how she was going to handle all of the flying in her new job, to my astonishment, Michelle said "Oh I am a good flier now!" and when I heartily laughed she said " No, really, I am!" Ok so knowing Michelle's fear, I was completely intrigued about this new found confidence. Then she told me about Ramzy and NOVA Hypnosis and Wellness. I had the initial questions that probably everyone has who has NO CLUE what to expect from hypnosis other than what I had seen on TV. (Seriously my first question to her was "Am I going to periodically and spontaneously cluck like a chicken or something when these sessions are over?" And "How does this work- do you go into a trance while on the plane?" She of course laughed hysterically and told me she would send me Ramzy's contact info.) Without hesitation, I can honestly say that one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life was to make that phone call to NOVA Hypnosis and Wellness. Over the last two years I have been doing much more air travel as my work position grew to include National Sales oversight. Just this past year I clocked over 30,000 air miles for work, but I noticed that as the time drew near for each flight, I was getting more and more anxiety both before and especially during the flight. I came to feel powerless every time the flight encountered some turbulence, so much so that my head usually ended up plastered to the seat in front of me to steady myself during the bumps! I decided I really did not want to live under so much stress since so much of my time was on an airplane. So I booked a consultation with Ramzy and to my great relief, my life is now forever changed for the better! After 4 back to back sessions and the initial consultation, I am now "one of those people" who I used to marvel at on planes- you know the ones who are sleeping before take off and all the way through the flight! I am SO relaxed on flights now that I travel with my neck pillow because invariably I end up with my head so far back or to one side that my neck starts to hurt! Honestly, even though I am aware of turbulence, I am so relaxed that I can't even bring my body to tighten up! AND for the first time in my history of flying (19 years,) During take off, I am completely relaxed- like just got out of a massage kind of relaxed! Normally I would tighten every muscle in my body as the plane sped down the runway. There is so much more I could write; I could go on and on singing the praises of NOVA Hypnosis and Wellness and Ramzy Ayachi and how much more peaceful and focused my life in ALL areas now is. Ramzy is extremely professional and is very well trained in his craft. I appreciate how prepared he was for our sessions and how much he truly cared about what I was going through. And he is definitely "the great encourager." You will feel like you can conquer anything after sessions with him. One point I wanted to make very clear. Ramzy and Monica and the staff at NOVA take what they do very seriously. I am an educated, professional business woman who has spent most of my career at the top of my game. Before meeting Ramzy and Monica I had the notion Hypnosis was superficial and mostly for TV purposes. I am a living testimony that Hypnosis is not just for Hippies in bare feet with flowers in their hair- not that there is anything wrong with that! :-) However, It is also for today's professional person, athlete, parent, and for anyone who is looking to not only conquer fear, or unwanted habits, but it's also great for focus and self awareness. If you are open, the possibilities are truly endless. If my testimony helps just one person to call Nova Hypnosis and Wellness that is a success to me indeed. Make that call- I promise, you will be so very glad you did! read more

All in the mind Life can teach us a lot of things but it rarely teaches us about our own thinking. It's easy to analyze facts and events from our point of view, but it's hard to find the root of our own thought process. It's even harder to understand why certain undesirable circumstances materialize here and there, forming a pattern. We often run the risk of believing it's others who have control over our life - boss, spouse, kids, friends - but do they really? I came to Ramzy in search of answers. Why was I experiencing the world the way I did? Where does stress come from? What's the point of this running around, from one place to the next, if we rarely take time to enjoy it? I engaged in a 5-session exploratory journey (1.5 hours per meeting), over a period of about 10 weeks. Ramzy applied NLP during our time together and it's been fascinating, to say the least. By making me verbalize certain beliefs, Ramzy successfully helped me demystify the unhealthy ones, naturally and permanently. When you turn the switch on and you see, you'll become aware and you'll want to keep the lights on. NLP stands for Neuro Linguistic Programming. I am not a pro but I can explain how it worked for me. We first did the value exercise, which made me aware of what really matters to me. What do you really stand for? That's the question you'll ask yourself during value identification. Then we continued with exercises where I was invited to observe whether these values were taken into account during a past or current decision-making process. Without fail, I saw clearly that each time I didn't account for those values, I was at a loss and stress would creep up. Subsequent sessions focused on how to re-frame thoughts, attitudes, and perceptions and create new routines and scripts, through repetition mostly. We did a lot of quick and continuous verbal back-and-forth during our sessions. It was exhausting but amazing. I felt like a Socratic student in the presence of her teacher. It challenged me every time, and at the peak of stress, it's like a door would open in my mind, I would enter and I would set myself free from the problem I had caused in the first place. Sometimes Ramzy would have to push me forward but he did it so gently, I felt like I was being accompanied and never kicked. This exercise was extremely valuable. We can literally untangle ourselves, if we are willing and guided by a true professional. It's not magic but it kind of is, in the sense that you will feel like something new, uplifting and encouraging is taking place within you, something you might have not thought it was possible. Most importantly, do the homework and take time to appreciate small wins in your learning. It will become progressively more apparent that you're solving your own issues but take the time to feel the joy of this journey, regularly. If you have an extremely logical and skeptical mind, please do consider NLP with Ramzy. I had been fighting my own thoughts for years. My intellect would create amazing structures but many times would also build terrible frameworks. We can get out of the ugly ones and decide to hang out in the brightness of our consciously chosen patterns. We are so complex it's hard to figure us out completely but we can help ourselves. Ramzy has been an ideal teacher, trainer, mentor, and guide. Extremely professional and frankly a person I admire. I will for sure go back to maintain myself accountable and to continue challenge myself. The work is never over but it can become pleasurable and inspiring. Thank you, Ramzy! #forevergrateful #chopwoodandcarrywater #celebrateandhavefaith read more

I have a few different reasons why I would highly suggestion nova hypnosis and wellness...I went for hypnotherapy for one issue and Monica ended up helping me with two! As well as guiding me in my own reiki healing journey! Here is my story :) the short version! I am 23 now, I was around 13 when I started picking at my face. It came at first as a bad habit and continued into my teens and then adulthood..unfortunately with this habit came scars, causing anxiety, insecurity and more that I never shared until now. I went in to see Monica in December 2014 for this particular issue however after a small chat about myself and my reasons for seeing her, she offered to help guide me on another/different daily issue I just never took seriously. During our first session we ended up working on what I call "screen communication" anxiety, I could hardly answer text or emails without shaking out of pressure. I had tucked this issue away because I was able to ignore it by just ignoring my phone and etc...Monica helped me realize I needed to face this little issue I kept shoving to the side. I am so thankful she brought this anxiety to the surface, I can talk to my friends long distance now, business communication is better, I feel my friendships are stronger because I can now reach out more often. After one session I can say I was able to concur this anxiety with Monica's guidance and support :) Our second session we did some reiki and Monica helped me during this session to just be comfortable with who and where I am in life. I really enjoyed this particular mediation unlike anything I'd done myself before. Reiki opened a lot of new doors for my built up energy, I was more then willing to keep them open especially with Monica's teachings guiding the way. Monica was very helpful we did our sessions right around the holidays so things were a bit messy with scheduling but she was really flexible and always willing to work with me. The third session I knew we were going to work on my picking, I was nervous and honestly didn't believe in myself. This was something I've been struggling with fighting myself day after day over it...I wasn't sure if hypnotherapy could even help, but it was worth the try especially with my trust in Monica! Not to bore you with the details but it was a challenging session I went through every emotion possible in my conscious and sub conscious. It was ok though, these emotions were coming out of me in a good way. These twisted emotions were rising above me so I could let a new light in. I still struggle a tad bit with this issue but nothing like before! I have courage to stop myself and believe in myself. My stress and anxiety levels are lower then ever. I was lucky enough to be one of the few in Monica's first reiki workshop (level 1) I jumped on the idea without even checking my weekend plans haha I couldn't be happier to joined this workshop I can't wait to move onto level 2. Reiki healing and hypnotherapy changed my life in many ways, and all positive. My dogs absolutely know I have a new energy to me, they haven't left me alone since Monica did my reiki attunement! My relationships are all great, my picking is minimal and under control. My over all anxiety level which would fluctuate daily is minimal also, I don't find myself stressing over small things and I find myself more open to the world around me. read more

Oh man. If you've ever wanted to try Hypnotherapy, NoVA Hypnosis and Wellness is the place to go. I bought a four-session, hour long package of Hypnotherapy sessions to start off with, because I had a few issues that kept coming up and causing me anxiety. I figured within four sessions, I should be able to see at least some improvement. Prior to signing up, I really didn't know what I was going to be getting myself into, or exactly how effective Hypnotherapy would be. I have previous experience with other therapies, including regular talk therapy, which have been a waste of time and money for me. I was a tiny bit unsure about whether this would be helpful or not, but I figured it was worth a shot. And let me tell you, it was worth every penny, and more. Monica, they Hypnotherapist, is absolutely amazing. She has a wonderfully calm presence, and makes you feel at ease immediately. She always makes sure to talk things through with you before the actual hypnosis begins, clarifying what the focus of the session will be, what type of hypnosis she'll be conducting, and generally offering advice and guidance on whatever issues are being focused on before the actual session begins. She also makes sure to follow up on the previous session's issues to see if progress has been made, and if further work is needed. I particularly like that, because previous therapists I've had have worked on one issue one session, and whether or not it was cleared, it was never brought up again in future sessions. As I mentioned, I really had intended on just working to clear a few small blocks I had that were setting off my anxiety, but Monica managed to help me clear many serious issues, some of which were buried so deep within me, I don't think anything but hypnosis would have dragged them out of me. While they were sometimes intense, these sessions were beautifully healing, and I couldn't have asked for them to be any more successful than they were. I cleared my driving anxiety, issues regarding self-worth and self-esteem, lack mentality, and a really deep emotional scar that doesn't need to be mentioned publicly. Just know that there were tears during the session, and a huge weight was lifted after it surfaced and the healing process was allowed to begin. Another great thing about these sessions is that they're recorded and sent to you via DropBox, so you can listen to the hypnosis recordings again and again, to continue work on your own while you're in between sessions, or just to have on record what you've worked on in the past. Unfortunately I've moved to California recently, so I can't continue to work with Monica directly, as much as I'd love to continue working with her, but I give her the highest recommendation possible, and would absolutely recommend her services to everyone and anyone who is considering Hypnotherapy. She is incredibly caring and professional, and isn't all "woo-woo" and "crazy new-age-y," If you're even half considering it, definitely give it, and NoVA Hypnosis and Wellness a try. I promise you'll be blown away by how effective this therapy is. read more

I went to Nova Hypnosis and Wellness after reaching a point where I thought I was spiraling out of control. My health was bad, and I didn't know why. I was struggling with anxiety symptoms, binge eating and low self-esteem. With a childhood history of neglect and abuse, and the recent death of my husband from cancer, I needed more than just therapy. I did not know what to expect from NOVA H&W. I had had one session of hypnosis a few years back to stop binge eating and noticed nothing. My daughter bit her nails to the quick and had the same therapy - without success. But, I was encouraged by the reviews and thought I would give it a try. After an initial phone consultation where I learned that this was going to be more than just one session, I started treatment with Ramzy. Originally I wanted Monica - her reviews were fantastic - but I joke with Ramzy that I got the sloppy seconds! Ramzy proved to be anything but. He was kind, thoughtful, caring, insightful, passionate and dedicated. I had about seven sessions. The sessions consisted of a combination of talk, with Ramzy just chatting (like you would to a therapist) and listening to me talk, and finding out what made me tick. He would hear something that he knew he could work with, and then use that experience to use in hypnosis to "reprogram" me. I got homework which involved a bit of thought and searching my memories, to figure out what made me happy, what was important to me, things I had no idea about, had never thought about. Put it all together, and I am, today, calm. If you think you're going to sit in a chair session after session, looking at a swinging clock, that is NOT how it works. After listening my whole life to the chattering voices in my head that tell me I'm no good, and which make me want to eat, I am calm. I have had no issues with food since I started. In fact, I hardly think about food unless I am hungry and have easily cut out gluten and dairy. I feel confident, happy, stable. I am not sure I recognize myself right now! I have replaced some of my most unhappy memories with different images of those events. I now have tools that will help me deal with adversity and the chattering voices. And I am going to keep doing my self-hypnosis exercises. I am an open-minded person, and believe in the power of thought. I was determined to make changes in my life and do exactly what I am told. I can state, categorically, that I feel different. I smile more. I am calmer. I am optimistic. I tell the voices to go away. I don't need food to numb me. I am ready to face the future. It's like having a year of intensive psychotherapy in just a couple of months. I highly recommend Nova Hypnosis and Wellness. read more

What can i say other than Ramzy Ayachi is amazing! Such and awesome person and meeting him was such an unbelievable life changing experience. You can feel his positive energy when just sitting in the room with him! I had been a heavy smoker for over 32 years and tried every quit smoking aid out there time an time again but with no success. It didn't matter what i tried, they were never going to work for me personally because my mind had always been in the completely wrong place. I was also dealing with a lot of other life long personal demons that i had never been unable to deal with prior to my sessions with Ramzy. Before meeting Ramzy i was at my wits end, constantly worrying about my health and what the years of smoking had done to my health, but i still couldn't quit. That constant worry was causing a lot of stress, anxiety and insomnia, which in turn was also affecting my wife and children in negative ways. My wife and children are everything to me and knowing how much this was also affecting them was adding to the anxiety and bouts of depression. Even knowing this i still felt so helpless and continued to suffer daily as did they. I must confess i was always somewhat a skeptic of hypnotherapy but Ramzy came highly recommended from one of my clients so i figured i would give him a try since i had tried everything else more than once! In just 5 sessions Ramzy had completely changed the way my mind was thinking. He taught me how to reprogram my brain so i was able to deal with the nicotine cravings. Not only did he teach me how to use my mind to beat the cravings, he also taught me how to be a more positive person, how to care about myself and how to deal with past traumas. Thanks to Ramzy i am a much happier person today and i am in a real happy place. I now have a completely new and more positive outlook on life and a real sense of direction. My wife and children have also noticed the positive effects of my time spent with Ramzy. I wish i had met him years ago!! I highly recommend NoVA Hypnosis and Wellness and constantly sing the praises of Ramzy to anyone i meet and that i feel could benefit from meeting him. I am happy to say that i have been a non-smoker for 9 months now and i know that i will be a non-smoker for the rest of my life!! Ramzey you rock my friend!! read more

Thank you Ramzy Ayachi and Northern Virginia Hypnosis and Wellness. Ramzy is a very talented, kind, and effective life coach/therapist who helped me get on the right path of wellness, good health and self love. I was looking to reinforce some lifestyle changes that I made a month earlier after 10 years of working an ultra high-stress job, wreckless eating, and leading a sedentary lifestyle. My obesity and diabetes was out of control and I needed to get it in check. I was referred to Ramzy by a business colleague who worked with Ramzy to manage some health issues. I generally keep an open mind about alternative therapies and read up on the science underlying hypnosis. To me, it just made a lot of sense and I decided to set up some sessions. I was expecting to be "hypnotized" my first session but I actually was not...they disclose that the initial session is consultative and needed to understand my needs and issues. While the initial meeting with Ramzy was exactly that, I could tell that these people knew what they were doing, wanted to help me, were genuinely concerned about my issue, and wanted to map out best possible plan of action for my specific issue. He was very professional, personal, genuine, and caring. Overall, I believe the hypnosis sessions were very beneficial. I am much more aware and mindful of my positive behaviors...Ramzy's work really helped me learn how to take care of myself and steer away from the unproductive, unhealthy behaviors (I genuinely believe it's my subconsious at work through the hypnosis sessions). So my progress is not only backed by a healthy drop in weight, but my blood glucose levels are under control and normal! I am already working with my doctor to reduce my diabetes medication...a path the Ramzy and I designed for myself. All I can say is that I am super proud of the progress I have made and look forward to continuing my work with Ramzy and the team. He is an excellent overall lifecoach who just uses hypnotherapy as a tool. I would recommend this team, and specifically Ramzy, to anyone who has a desire to modify unhealthy or unproductive behaviors and get on the path to wellness and peak performance! read more

January 13, 2019 This is the best Hypnosis and NLP training in this area! What they offer is so unique that you will not find it anywhere else in this format: Hypnosis, NLP, and business training all in one concise package! They even have a mentorship program if you decide you want to be a part of the NoVA Team! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to either gain the skills or start their own practice! I came to NOVA Hypnosis and Wellness for an appointment in May of 2017. I carefully looked at the website, compared it to other websites and called to ask questions. It became clear to me very quickly that Ramzy and Monica had the training, professionalism, honesty and compassion I was looking for. I had one session with Ramzy, to improve my sleeping patterns, which had caused sleep deprivation for years. I quickly decided I wanted to commit to making the changes and doing the work I needed to do to allow this to happen, then returned for 2 more sessions. I was confident my sleeping would improve, and it did, but not only did it improve, it continued to remain that way for almost two years and is still improved today. My daughter had been experiencing anxiety in the form of panic attacks. She went to see Ramzy for several sessions last summer, and she been successful in continuing to reduce the panic attacks. I found myself thinking "I wish I could work in this career field of helping people". As a parent and teacher for over 30 years, with a bachelor's degree in choral music education and a master's degree in special education, I have a passion for learning and for helping others. I confidently decided to begin the Hypnosis and NLP training and mentorship program to transition from teaching in the classroom to teaching and guiding others to live their best versions of themselves and am fully satisfied that I did!

I cannot say enough positive things about Monica and the practice at NoVA Hypnosis. From the moment I walked into the serene office space, to the first time I met Monica and felt her bright warm energy, making me feel comfortable and safe immediately. My sessions with Monica were truly amazing and supremely relaxing. She is not only professional and ensures that her patients have a good understanding of the process, but she also genuinely cares about her patients, giving guidance and tools that extend beyond the sessions, including recommendations for reading, videos, recordings, etc. Her sessions brought about a sense of peace in my life that has beeen profound and meaningful, and in many ways complement my other spiritual practices of yoga, hiking, etc. I also went to see MaryBeth for three Reiki sessions, and words can barely describe the tremendous healing power I experienced. For 10 months I have been suffering from a torn hamstring, and virtually after my first Reiki session, the pain was gone. I followed up with two more sessions to ensure the healing continued, and I will not hesitate to go back to see her again as needed. Reiki is also quite powerful and effective for emotional healing and I highly recommend both MaryBeth and Monica for these services. As a side note, scheduling and communicating with Monica was easy and she is extremely responsive. I have been recommending NoVA Hypnosis to my friends, and I look forward to a long relationship with NoVA Hynposis and Wellness in the future. read more

Since moving to the area I have had the opportunity to experience hypnosis several times. I've generally used it to help me relax and reverse the affects of the anxiety I've experienced since moving to this city from a small town - huge lifestyle change! One of the things I love the most about hypnosis, is that you don't have to have to be clear on what you want to achieve. The sessions naturally flow after a short interview with the therapist. All you have to do is "show up", be present and allow whatever happens to be your experience. You don't have to talk things through like traditional talk therapy - which I have also done. The benefits are huge! I've found after each session that I feel lighter and more free to be happy and content with where I am in my life. Monica at NOVA Hynosis and Wellness is a true gem! She has so much compassion and love to give. She instantly made me feel comfortable and relaxed, which of course is important in order to get the most out of your session. Monica's wisdom and guidance has helped me to continue to work with my daily stressors even after our session. She truly cares about her clients. Her space is very cozy and inviting. It's in a convenient location with ample parking. I highly recommend everyone to give her a call. We all have stuff to work through. Hypnosis is a great way to quiet the mind, set aside the ego, and get to know ourselves on a much deeper level. If you are ready for that, set up and appointment and prepare yourself to be amazed!! read more

If ever you wanted to try hypnotherapy, but were too skeptical to move forward with it, then THIS is the place to go. I have had ongoing issues for the past 20 years and had tried everything under the sun to overcome them, but nothing (therapy, medication, etc.) even came close to helping. I even used to joke that the ONLY thing I HADN'T tried was hypnosis. So when the opportunity presented itself to try hypnosis, I thought I'd give it a shot as my last ditch effort to help myself. Then if it didn't work for me, I would be able to say I tried everything and that I was a lost cause: nothing could help me. Needless to say, I went in for my first visit with a very skeptical mindset. After the first session, I immediately noticed a difference in my perception of myself, and an inner peace that I haven't experienced in years began to take root. After the next few, my entire thought process changed to become more positive and conducive to healing. Family, friends, even doctors noticed a profound difference. I am thrilled to say that because of my work with Monica, I am better mentally, emotionally, and physically than I have been in years. Monica has created a trustworthy, safe, and relaxing environment. She is warm, caring, non-judgmental, and truly has a wise, helping spirit. I would recommend NOVA to anyone and everyone. read more

I love NoVa Hypnosis & Wellness. everyone is extremely friendly and professional. I am currently looking to resolve some issues I have with my eating habits. I am 6 feet tall and stuck between a size 6 and 8. Unlike most people I know, Monica and Ella have been able to truly encourage me to strive for my goal of getting rid of those unwanted pounds I carry on my hips. All of their approaches are very healthy and support good eating habits. I am currently working with Monica as my health coach and with Ella as my hypnotherapist and I am loving it. Ella is extremely emphatic and knows exactly how to approach unresolved issues. She offers a lot of comfort during and after the sessions and I am able to trust her completely. We were able to uncover some triggers that I haven't been aware of at all! Long story short: within the past 3 weeks I was able to drop 8 pounds, feel emotionally better and find it much easier to make healthy choices for myself. I highly recommend the professionals at NoVa hypnosis & wellness and will happily continue working with Ella! I'm truly enjoying the journey of self-improvement Thank you so much for being part of that, Ella and Monica! read more

I worked with Ramzy via web-based sessions and am so happy with what I've gained through that experience. I initially booked a consultation to address a 15+ year long fear/avoidance of flying. After a consultation and 3 sessions, I took a vacation, which included 4 flights. Prior to these sessions, I had very minimal confidence in my ability to handle these flights. The day I left for the trip, my entire attitude about flying was different. The sessions left me feeling highly motivated and ready to take on the challenge and therefore my anxiety was reduced to a level that was manageable. I finally felt like I was in control. I'm now booking another trip to the west coast and am really excited. Following the trip, Ramzy and I continued working together for several more sessions. We identified my values in life and how I can work to live in alignment with them. The sessions were eye opening and often very powerful. Ramzy has an extremely upbeat, motivating personality and he was wonderful to work with. I am incredibly thankful for the tools he has shared, the knowledge he has gifted me and the confidence he has brought out in me. Thank you, Ramzy!!! read more

I had always thought about hypnotherapy for numerous reasons, but never had until I noticed a Livingsocial deal. I bought 3 sessions, and made my first appointment. I got there, and remember sitting in the waiting room, and the lady before me came out, and was like, "she is awesome!" And Monica IS awesome. She is instantly welcoming. Her energy and warmth make it easy to feel comfortable opening up to her with any issues you're having that you're wanting hypnosis for. Just talking with her is a great therapy in itself. She then has you lie on a heated massage table, puts a blanket on you, and takes you into the most peaceful and beautiful place. She helps to remind you who and what you really are, putting aside every single thing in life that has you worried or stressed. She eases into whatever issues/anxieties you're having, helping you to address and conquer them. She seems to get a great "feel" for you (or at least she did with me), and takes you through a hypnotherapy that is suited to be exactly what you need. A fantastic experience. I will absolutely be going back. read more

I had a life-long phobia about needles--I cried, I passed out, I had anxiety dreams for weeks before any scheduled procedure. After two sessions with Josh, I walked into a CVS by myself and got a flu shot without much more anxiety than if it were part of my weekly errands. Two weeks after that, I got a much-needed cortisone injection, and while I was certainly anxious, the anxiety was in the realm of what most normal people would experience before such a procedure. I had sought therapy for this phobia once before, but it was only slightly helpful, and this was my last-ditch effort to get past it. I went in with a "what do I have to lose" attitude, but admittedly was a little skeptical about how successful it would be. Not anymore! I appreciated how down to earth and pragmatic Josh's approach was--he explained the neurological basis behind the techniques, and there was nothing mystical or new-age about it. He even offered to accompany me to get my flu shot! I would highly recommend Josh; overcoming this phobia has made a genuine positive difference in my life. read more

Wow, where do I begin. NoVA Hypnosis & Wellness is life-changing. I can't recommend it enough. The results I have experienced in my life are incredible. I have been to traditional talk therapy and this blows that out of the water. I worked with Ramzy and he truly has a gift helping people. The best part is, nearly everyone on Earth can benefit from the services they offer...parents, kids, couples, singles, athletes, celebrities, professionals, and so on. Every human can elevate their control of their own destiny. We all have room for improvement. Run, Don't walk to them. You will be glad you did. I initially came to him to help with some small things in my life and shortly after I finished our two month program, I received some devastating news. I know I would not have been able to handle this time in my life, if I hadn't done work with Ramzy. I will definitely be a long-term client and the tools for life I have learned in such a short time are extremely valuable. This is the biggest gift you can give yourself. Total game changer. read more

I was skeptical about trying hypnotherapy, but I am extremely happy I finally gave it a shot and went to NoVA Hypnosis and Wellness. My Hypnotherapist, Ella Hickox, was absolutely wonderful. I have struggled with anxiety my entire life, but recently the increased amount of stress had become overwhelming. I had been on medication, but I was looking for a more natural solution without any pills and side effects. I was nervous for my first session, but Ella was very warm and comforting and put my mind at ease. We talked first about some of the problems I have been dealing with and what I would like to accomplish from our sessions. I have now been to several meditation/relaxation sessions and truly, I feel so much better! I leave each appointment feeling tranquil and full of positive energy. When I get stressed during the day, thinking of the sessions and our exercises helps me to relax. I would definitely recommend NoVA Hypnosis and Wellness, and my Hypnotherapist Ella to anyone that is looking to make a positive change in their life! read more

Ramzy is an exceptional and gifted life coach and counselor, by far the best I've encountered in my 35 year career. The best money I have ever spent to enhance my professional and family life. I recently retired from the military as a two star flag officer, and I sought Ramzy's support to assist me in determining where best to leverage my skillsets and ENERGY for my next phase. The military has a good transition program to assist in what I call the administrative aspects such as resumes, contacts, etc. But the program was clearly lacking one on one counseling to truly delve into a deep understanding of my potential and motivations to set my new course. Ramzy delivered in just four sessions! I plan on working next with him on achieving "peak performance" in my new field and realizing the many goals that we identified - and I have no doubt I will achieve with his support. Thank you Ramzy and Monica for creating such a dynamic and results oriented company. Everyone can benefit greatly from your service!!! Eric V. read more

My 17 year old son has seen traditional therapists but was still experiencing depression, lack of interests and purpose. He wanted to do better at school and get healthier and lose weight but he just couldn't motivate himself. I was looking for alternative methods for my son and came across NoVa Hypnosis. Instantly, my son felt extremely comfortable with Ramzy and really looked forward to his appointments. I was very skeptical about hypnosis and Ramzy was very patient and explained the methodology and his sessions with my son. What a difference it has made in my son. He lost 40 lbs, completed a summer engineer program at CalPoly and excelling at his new job . Ramzy has an ability to cut through the issues and focus on the problem in such short period of time. My son is happy, more confident and looking forward to his senior year in high school and applying to colleges. My son now has tools he can use to deal with daily challenges. My son and I highly recommend Ramzy!! Ramzy, thank you for everything!! read more
