Does the fear of getting on an airplane keep you from enjoying the vacations you want to take? Perhaps you get a cold chill in your gut when you think about going over a tall bridge or getting in an elevator? Or maybe the sight of a snake or spider makes you want to jump out of your skin?  Relax. Hypnosis can help banish these feelings of dread forever!

Usually only one or two sessions are necessary.

"I had been dealing with Claustrophobia for as long as I can remember.  I just resigned my self to the fact that every plane ride, every elevator ride, every backseat car ride was going to be excruciating.  I either had to avoid the situations altogether or medicate myself to be able to deal with it.   Working with Don for 10 minutes literally cured this phobia.  I am amazed at the effectiveness of this procedure!  Thank you Don, you cannot know how this has changed my life!"

"Don - I just wanted to give some feedback on my trip to the West Coast. (I saw you on a Friday and I was leaving the following Monday)... It went perfectly (as you predicted). I've had absolutely no claustrophobic feelings at all since our session. One session, and cured? It sure looks that way. In fact, I'm getting ready to book a seat on a small "puddle jumper" going to Ohio, something I never would have considered doing three months ago.... Thanks for the help, I've gone from skeptic to believer. Thanks again."

"For as long as I can remember, since I was a little girl, I had a big phobia with lizards.... Here is about thirty years later, after going through a fifteen-minute therapy, I was able to let go of the fear and be perfectly ok every time a lizard runs across the sidewalk.  Don’t take me wrong, I still don’t like them, but I don’t jump up and scream or pass out when I see one and that is a wonderful thing!"

"Hi Don,
Due to work and the heat, I wasn’t able to ride until this morning. First things first…I will admit I was somewhat skeptical that the hypnosis would work. Since our session last week and up until this morning, I was constantly thinking, “This isn’t going to work”, “I’m a fool for spending so much money”, etc. etc. This morning as I groomed and tacked Opal, I kept playing through my head all of the possible scenarios that could happen if she spooked. I mentally started planning all of the evasive steps I had gotten into the habit of doing lately to avoid all possible situations. But…as I led her outside to walk her to the outdoor arena, I did something I haven’t done in months…instead of leading her to the arena by hand, which is a several hundred yards from the barn, through and pass many possible “spooky” areas, I got on and rode her to the arena.... I had a huge smile when I arrived at the arena and saw the shocked look on my trainers face (she doesn’t know I did hypnosis). I had an excellent ride this morning. I wasn’t nervous, didn’t have the shakes, and knew with great confidence that if Opal were to spook, I could handle it just fine. The couple of times her body told me she was thinking about getting nervous, I was able to change her mind without any side effects on me mentally....

Thank you so much for your help!"
