Experience Utter Hypnosis: A Remarkable & Distinctive Method for Achieving Healing
Hypnotists vary in their approach and level of expertise. Utter Hypnosis is board-certified, trauma-focused, and committed to a holistic approach.
- Board certification requires expertise and experience far beyond the basic training to become a certified hypnotist. Out of over one thousand certified 5-PATH hypnotists worldwide, I am one of 9 who are board-certified.
- Trauma-focused. The key to resolving chronic, overwhelming, and often puzzling issues regarding harmful habits and fears is understanding how to work effectively with trauma. In addition to my hypnosis certifications, I trained personally with Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk, the world's foremost authority on trauma.
- Committing to a holistic approach means that I only use methods that are healthy for the whole person rather than curing symptoms in ways that may cause other problems. For example, when I help someone quit smoking, I address the root cause of the problem. Therefore, there is no need to compensate with another habit, such as overeating or drinking. A holistic approach ensures that you will experience an increased sense of freedom, connection, and overall well-being, in addition to relief from the specific symptoms you are experiencing.
Complete Relief
Imagine if the problem that brought you to this page no longer existed. Instead of experiencing that problem, you feel complete relief and a new sense of freedom and connection. Without the problem, what would change? How would you feel? What would you do?
This might be a challenging scenario to envision, especially if you don’t remember a time when the problem was absent. Several of my clients can attest to the fact that they no longer have the chronic problems that once seemed intractable, even after years of counseling and trying several alternative approaches.
Whenever we experience a habit that we cannot control, there is an unconscious part of us that is stronger than our conscious will. Utter Hypnosis helps you make contact, make sense of, and make peace with the part of you that was previously hidden from view and was overpowering your ability to make healthy choices.
"John helped me with trauma and saved my life. I had debilitating PTSD and woke up wanting to die for three years despite therapy, medication, and hospitalization. My body was storing memories I couldn’t access by myself because the reality was so bad, I suppose. Because of the work I had already done, John was able to “pick the lock” in one practice session. I am able to walk around in public again and able to exist in a mirror as a person for the first time. I think hypnosis is essential for people who have reoccurring intrusive thoughts, and I highly recommend John Utter’s expertise. He is a very talented person who can see and reach people. He likes to see people on the other side of the mountain." - Hilma J.
What Is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis to induce a relaxed and focused state for the client. In this state, it's possible for the hypnotherapist to help the client discover and resolve the root cause for a variety of issues.
For example, hypnotherapy can be effective for dealing with anxiety, pain, tinnitus, IBS, phobias, stress, migraines, and many other physical and psychological conditions. It can also be effective for weight loss and quitting bad habits like smoking or drinking.
If you're struggling with any of the above you may be an ideal candidate for hypnosis here in Bellingham, WA or as a virtual hypnosis client from anywhere in the world.
Hypnosis Misconceptions
Many people think of being hypnotized as some kind of stage trick or performance. Hypnotherapy bears no resemblance to stage hypnosis or to Hollywood movies that make hypnosis look like mind control.
In fact, hypnotherapy is a collaborative process where the client is in control throughout the entire session. Modern hypnotherapy is widely regarded as a powerful therapeutic tool for many psychological and physical ailments.
Hypnotherapy is a scientifically valid approach and has been shown to be extremely effective in studies published by PubMed and other major science and medical publications.
