Stop Smoking

Want To Quit Smoking For Good?

Breathe Deeper. Feel Better. Smell Fresher. Feel More Relaxed! Save Money!

Stop Smoking Hypnosis


Today in the USA we have more people who are non-smokers than those who continue to smoke. You can join the thousands of people who have quit smoking using hypnosis, and who have done it quickly without any of the problems that are normally associated with smoking cessation programs. You can kick the habit, for good!*

Celebrity Success Stories

What do Ellen DeGeneres, Drew Barrymore, Matt Damon and Charlize Theron all have in common? They all quit smoking with hypnosis. Matt Damon changed his attitude toward cigarettes in only 3 sessions with his hypnotist. He raved: “It’s amazing I didn’t even want cigarettes any more.”

Ellen DeGeneres had a guest hypnotist on her TV show that completely wiped away the desire for cigarettes. She was so impressed that she told him “You’ve helped me tremendously and probably saved my life, definitely changed my life.” And Drew Barrymore managed to kick a 2 to 3 pack a day smoking habit with the help of hypnosis.

A Proven and Scientific Approach

In 2001, The University of Washington’s School of Medicine found that after a 6-month follow-up, hypnosis to stop smoking had a 90.6% success rate. Smoke Free International found that people using hypnosis in combination with NLP had a 95% success rate of stopping smoking. Here is some of the other research supporting hypnosis as the most effective way to stop smoking:

Journal article about hypnosis

”Hypnosis is the most effective way of giving up smoking, according to the largest ever scientific comparison of ways of breaking the habit. A meta-analysis, statistically combining results of more than 600 studies of 72,000 people from America and Europe to compare various methods of quitting. On average – hypnosis was over three times as effective as nicotine replacement methods and 15 times as effective as trying to quit alone.”

— University of Iowa Journal of Applied Psychology – How One in Five Give Up Smoking, October 1992. (Also New Scientist October 10, 1992), Schmidt, Chockalingam

One Client’s Feedback

I just wanted to write you and let you know how much I’ve enjoyed being a non-smoker for over one month. The process was so easy it makes me wish that I had become a non-smoker years ago.

I am moving through life as a committed non-smoker after more than a pack a day habit for twenty-five years. Thank you for releasing that non-smoker within me through the power of hypnosis. You were professional, friendly, caring, and committed and it was appreciated.

Good luck in your future endeavors. I have passed on your contact information to family members and friends that may have need for your services. I hope they will seek you out to obtain the same assistance in cracking supposed unbeatable habits in a single session. Thank you again.

– Ryan R., Virginia*

Our Program

Our Individual Smoking Cessation program includes 3 sessions.

First Session: Your Quit Date

After the first session, you will be able to walk away a non-smoker. During this session, about an hour and a half to two hours in length, you will strengthen your goals for what you want in your life, and what you don’t want in your life anymore.

You will then be guided into a relaxing hypnosis session, and given positive suggestions for smoking cessation.

Second Session: Reinforcement

In the second session, we reinforce the changes that you have made and lock in your desire to live free of the control that the cigarettes had on you.

Supporting Materials You Will Receive

We want you to be successful. On your very first session, we will show you multiple techniques for getting rid of a craving. You will also receive:

  1. A Self-Hypnosis Follow-Up CD or MP3
  2. A powerful technique condensed to one page to keep with you so you can rapidly eliminate cravings or other unhelpful emotions
  3. Complimentary Phone Support (up to an hour during the program).

Optional Third Session: Follow-up

Also included is a third “follow-up” session to be used anytime within the next 120 days. This session can be used as a “tune up,” to prevent relapses, or simply to experience the deep relaxation that hypnosis has to offer.

Support Included

Our program is incredibly successful, because our intention is not to have you quit for a month or two, but to remain a non-smoker for the rest of your life. We will be there to support you through making the best decision you ever made.

Your Next Step

Call us at 703-779-9616 to find out if hypnosis is right for you and book your first session.

Weight Loss

Hypnosis for Weight Loss

Rockville, Maryland and Alexandria, Virginia

We offer several hypnosis programs for losing weight and for maintaining that weight loss.

Weight Loss Hypnosis

Discover One of the Most Effective Ways to Lose Weight

Through the effects of hypnosis, you’ll eat less of the foods that you are currently eating, and you will have an increased desire to move your body.*

When you don’t feel that “pressure” to keep eating beyond what might be normal or natural for you, you’ll find the pounds melt off and you’ll have an increased sense of energy and a general sense of well-being.

How Hypnosis Can Help

Through the effects of hypnosis, you’ll eat less of the foods that you are currently eating, and you will have an increased desire to move your body.

When you don’t feel that “pressure” to keep eating beyond what might be normal or natural for you, you’ll find the pounds melt off and you’ll have an increased sense of energy and a general sense of well-being.

I never thought losing weight could be so easy. I have been dealing with a weight issue most of my adult life. I tried hypnosis and the weight has started falling off with very little effort on my part. After my first session of hypnosis, I noticed a difference in my eating habits. My friends and co-workers also noticed a difference.

I am pleased to say I only eat when hungry and only eat until I’m satisfied. I have recommended several people to the Center. They are as pleased with their results as I am with mine. Thank you for changing my life.

– Stephanie N., November 2011*

Your Relationship with Food

Our weight loss programs are based on the simple fact that if you are carrying excess weight and have been struggling with losing it, riding the roller coaster diet, trying many approaches with some or no success, your relationship with food is to blame.

The truth is: Your thoughts, perceptions, and emotions are making you fat! You have tried the diet programs, You know what to do. Somehow, you just don’t seem to be able to get yourself to follow what you know to do.

This time you want to succeed; this time you want it to last. When you work with your mind and your heart and change your relationship with food, everything else falls into place.

Details of our Weight Loss Programs

Choose the program that works for you.

‣ Group Sessions

Our Weight Loss group sessions are great for those who work well in group settings and who are experiencing hypnosis for the first time.These sessions tend to be inexpensive and something you can repeat over and over at your convenience, however you must be available at the times the group meets, and the suggestions given are meant to serve the entire group.

We recommend these group sessions either as your first introduction to hypnosis, or as reinforcement after the deeper work has been done. Many people have benefited from this program with much success.

‣ Advanced Group

The Advanced Weight Loss Group was created for those who would like to go deeper in a group setting, and learn the array of techniques and tools available for weight loss. This isn’t possible in a regular group setting because it’s a different crowd every time and some are new.However in the Advanced Group, you move through the process and learn as a group. You will experience deep and powerful changes as each person works to transform their issues, challenges, and/or blockages. This allows a closer connection and support with those people in your group, as you see and notice the real results that are happening from week to week.

We recommend the advanced group sessions for those who are sincere and committed to creating a new relationship with themselves, others, and food.

For more information, visit our Advanced Group page.

‣ Weight Loss Individual Program

Our individual sessions are the most popular weight loss program. In contrast to a group-centered approach, in these sessions the weight loss program is designed for you and we individually address your triggers, blocks and emotions that have been causing you to gain weight and stopping you for losing weight and keeping it off.

Our weight loss program is a 5-session program. Sessions are run by the session and not by the hour, so take into consideration between 2-3 hours when coming in! In each session we are working with you personally to overcome challenges and blocks that may be stopping you from reducing the weight completely and reaching your goals.

We recommend this program to those who prefer individual attention, and who would like to deepen their relationship with themselves and with food – this program takes you to a whole new level!

‣ Hypno-Band® Program

Hypno-Band® is a combination of using hypnosis and behavioral changes to help you to understand and change your eating habits. Using hypnosis, a virtual gastric band is fitted to your stomach, causing you to eat less and less often.

For more information about the program, visit our Hypno-Band® Page.

Golf Improvement

Golf Improvement


The game has such a hold on golfers because they compete not only against an opponent, but also against the course, against par, and most surely – against themselves. – Arnold Palmer

Every golfer will agree that once you learn the basics of how to swing a club and the mechanics involved, golf is primarily a mental game. Golfers such as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Tom Watson, and Bobby Jones have spoken out on the merits of having mental focus, toughness and concentration to have true success on the course.

However, even though everyone knows that as much as 90% of golf is mental, how many golfers truly ride the edge and maximize their potential?

I never hit a shot, not even in practice, without having a very sharp, in focus picture of it in my head. It’s like a colour movie. First I see the ball where I want it to finish, nice and white and sitting up high on bright green grass. Then the scene quickly changes and I see the ball going there: its path, trajectory and shape, even its behaviour on landing. Then there is a sort of fade out and the next scene shows me making the kind of swing that will turn the previous images into reality.

– Jack Nicklaus, US Masters Champion

Are you using your mind to it’s fullest potential, or might you have mental blockages sabotaging your success? Ask yourself if you have ever scored really well on the front 9, and somehow managed to throw it all away on the back 9, or vice versa! It is because mentally you “must” hit your number because that is what you believe is possible.

Learn the secrets of the professionals – having a good hypnotist in their arsenal!

While our focus is on assisting the professional golfer to get their mindset that much better, we work with golfers of all levels. Whether you would just like to break 90, or you’d like to maintain a high level of concentration through a competitive 3-day tournament, we tailor the sessions to work with you and your game individually.

It’s now time to unleash the power of your own mind to assist you in your golf game. Call us today to start improving!

HypnoBirthing® Classes – Hypnosis for Birthing in Rockville, Maryland

HypnoBirthing® Classes – Hypnosis for Birthing

Join our birthing expert for pre-natal classes on natural and comfortable child births.

hypnobirthing-mongan-method-banner

Have the gentle, easy birth, that you and your baby desire

HypnoBirthing®, also known as the Mongan Method, is a childbirth education method that empowers women to achieve more gentle, natural births. It is both a philosophy and a set of tools that uses self-hypnosis techniques and scripts to achieve a focused awareness and level of relaxation that will allow for a much more comfortable, easy birth.

“There’s a calmness and not as much fuss,” Marie Mongan, the founder of HypnoBirthing® said. “That’s the way babies are meant to come into the world.”

Celebrity Births – Kate Middleton

Catherine,_Duchess_of_Cambridge
Kate Middleton used HypnoBirthing® as the birth plan to give birth to the royal baby at St Mary’s Hospital in London. She used Hypnotherapy for morning sickness in the past when she was in the hospital.

A source told UK’s Grazia Magazine, “Some of her friends have used this method and swear by it. Kate wants to do it her way and be relaxed.”

Hypnosis has long been used to ease the pain of childbirth; and clinical research shows that it decreases the need for chemical anesthetics and has benefits for the baby.

The Science Behind Using Hypnotherapy for Birth

Hypnosis has been used during childhood for approximately 100 years. Studies on using hypnosis for birthing show that hypnosis reduces the need for medical intervention during labor, and also reduces the risk to women and newborn babies. Another study showed that hypnosis has a psychological benefit to mothers and newborns.

A meta-analysis of hypnosis for birthing studies, comprising a total of 8395 women, found that much fewer women would need to use analgesia during their birth, opting for hypnosis instead. Women who used hypnosis reported less discomfort than a control group.
