Hypnotherapy, amplified by neurofeedback

Hypnosis helps you make positive changes quickly. We add neurofeedback to train the brain alongside it — a combined approach designed for maximum results in a minimum amount of time. Your own mind does the work; we provide the pathway.

Smoking Cessation

Clinical protocols to reframe the smoking habit, reduce cravings, and solidify non-smoker identity. Evidence-based methodology.

Weight Management

Address eating patterns, appetite regulation, and body-image work through clinical hypnotic suggestion and reframing.

Anxiety Reduction

Hypnotic protocols to lower baseline anxiety, improve stress response, and build confidence. Complementary to therapy and medication.

Sleep Improvement

Guided induction and deepening techniques to improve sleep onset and quality. Often effective within 2-3 sessions.

Neurofeedback

Real-time brain training that pairs with hypnosis to reinforce calmer, more focused patterns — the core of our neocortical-regulation approach.

Performance Hypnosis

Athletes, musicians, speakers, and professionals use hypnotic preparation to optimize focus, confidence, and execution under pressure.

A calm, focused, results-first approach

Devin brings a life-coaching mindset to every session, pairing standard clinical hypnosis with neurofeedback so change feels natural and takes hold. The work is collaborative: you set a specific, measurable goal, and the combined method is designed to help you rehearse and reinforce it. Hypnosis is best understood as a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility — you remain aware and in control throughout, and you cannot be made to do anything against your values.

The evidence base is genuinely mixed and condition-dependent. The American Psychological Association describes hypnosis as a therapeutic technique that can help with pain, anxiety, and habit change, while cautioning that it works best as a complement to established care rather than a standalone cure. That is exactly how sessions here are framed: a supportive tool alongside, not a replacement for, medical or psychological treatment.

Every plan begins with an intake conversation about your history and goals, and we coordinate with your physician when appropriate. Results vary from person to person, and hypnotherapy is not a substitute for licensed medical care.

One-on-one, in Upland

Every program is tailored to you and delivered in person from our Upland office in the Inland Empire. One-on-one delivery matters because clinical hypnosis is highly individual: suggestions land differently depending on your goals, your history, and how readily you enter a focused, relaxed state. Group scripts and app recordings cannot adapt in real time the way a practitioner can.

In-person sessions also let us pair hypnosis with neurofeedback and adjust the approach as we go, watching how you respond and refining the plan between visits. Responsiveness to hypnosis varies naturally from person to person, and the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health notes that outcomes differ by individual and by condition.

We begin with an intake consultation, review any relevant medical history, and coordinate with your physician when appropriate. Hypnotherapy is a complementary modality and not a substitute for licensed medical or mental-health care.

Why It Works

Rapid, positive change

Part of what makes clinical hypnosis appealing is efficiency: by working with focused attention and receptivity to suggestion, it can help some people rehearse new responses and shift habits in relatively few sessions. Reviews summarized by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health point to the most consistent support for hypnosis in areas such as pain management, procedural anxiety, and irritable bowel symptoms, with evidence for other uses still developing.

It is important to keep the claim honest: hypnosis is not a guaranteed shortcut, and the research base varies by condition and by person. The American Psychological Association frames it as a legitimate therapeutic technique that augments other treatments rather than replacing them. We build on that foundation by adding neurofeedback to reinforce calmer, more focused patterns.

Individual results vary, and this is not medical advice. Hypnotherapy complements, and does not replace, care from your licensed healthcare provider.

The Evidence for Hypnotherapy in 2026

Recent syntheses spanning two decades of research — drawing on dozens of meta-analyses and hundreds of randomized trials — continue to support clinical hypnosis as an evidence-based adjunct. The NIH National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health recognizes evidence for hypnosis in conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, chronic pain, and certain symptoms like hot flashes, and 2026 attention has focused on hypnosis as an opioid-sparing adjunct around surgery.

Two honest caveats belong alongside that: effect sizes vary between studies and individuals, and hypnosis generally works best combined with medical and cognitive-behavioral care rather than on its own. Its safety profile is reassuring, with registered trials reporting no serious adverse events. This evidence-informed, realistic framing guides the practice at California Hypnotherapy Centers.

Clinical hypnosis is not FDA-approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. This is a complementary modality and not a substitute for licensed medical care; we work alongside your physicians and mental-health providers.
