The answer is no. However, hypnosis can reshape your thoughts about particular memories. Clients usually see me for traumatic ones that pose obstacles in their day-to-day affairs. Others come seeking to stop “resting on their laurels.” All of them are desperate for necessary action and change.

The question is whether you’re willing to let go of the associations you’ve made to your past when they start causing obvious harm. By that I mean: you develop a specific phobia, say, or blank out on basic upkeep like showering and eating. Don’t let the effects worsen into major disorders.

During treatment, you’ll learn to deal with memories without being overwhelmed or stuck. My success rate is remarkable. And I’ve been practicing in NYC for 37 years.
