Hypnotherapy and Counseling

"Hypnotherapy was new to me when I began with Jessica Levine. My sessions with her were very helpful for my problems with indigestion, tension and stress. I specially appreciated that office visits were 90 minutes in length, which gave time to both discuss my current situation and have a good hypnotic session. Not only did I get relief in these sessions, I also learned a number of self-hypnotic techniques to use outside the office to help with physical and emotional problems.

Throughout Jessica provided good advice and counsel on personal issues. In our work together, I had a sense of joint participation with Dr. Levine that I found highly rewarding."

"I consulted Jessica shortly before the California bar exam. A recent family crisis had derailed my studying, and I was so mired in anxiety that I was not effectively using the time I had left to prepare. She helped me to shift my perspective, redirect my attention, and free up my internal resources. Jessica guided me in creating an internal space where I felt calm and grounded. I was able to return to this when I started to feel overwhelmed with the preparation and during the exam. I just found out that I passed, and I know I could not have done it without Jessica. Her insight and skills made a huge difference, and I am very grateful!

"I started seeing Jessica for my anxiety disorder and my inability to travel far. I had a personal travel radius that was no more than 15 miles. I¹m not someone who is interested in trying medication, and I had never tried hypnotherapy. Jessica made me feel very comfortable and made the whole process very easy and enjoyable. We did the hypnotherapy for a few months and I decided to try and travel out of my radius; using the tools I learned from Jessica. I succeeded!! I am so happy with what I¹ve accomplished, and I completely thank Jessica for that, she has helped me tremendously. I look forward to taking more and more trips!!!

"Jessica, I began this journey into hypnotherapy to explore and address the barriers to weight loss and weight management that I believe exist inside me, and with your work I have turned many corners. Not only have I gained alternative understandings about what food means to me at the unconscious level, I have also been given and co-created tools that help me manage my overwhelming anxiety.

I had a great block in my studies, and since our work I have resumed regularly studying for my licensing exam, and now believe I am on my way to taking it. Before I dreaded studying for fear of failing, now I have accepted that I will study and take the exam until I pass, no matter how many times. You have also given me concrete strategies that I can use to reduce my anxiety when I study and when I take the test.

In terms of my weight loss and management, so far I've lost 16 pounds, and I do feel confident that I will continue to lose weight with your knowledge about overcoming the past and present associations I make with food, as well as your helping me overcome the obstacles that lead to my unhealthy eating patterns.

I wasn’t completely sure about what hypnotherapy would offer me, but I’m glad I tried it! I am reaching another place in my self-exploration."

"Jessica patiently helped my son overcome a dog phobia. Initially, he was resistant to hypnosis but after a few sessions of sand play and discussion, he trusted Jessica. I trust Jessica implicitly with my child and his subconscious. She is patient, caring, dedicated, committed and because she is a parent herself, she can relate to and understand children."

"About six months ago I was trying to decide whether to move to Mendocino from the Bay Area when I went to see Jessica to get help for the anxiety the decision-making process was triggering in me.

Jessica guided me into a hypnotic state that opened up an internal space where I could do the work I needed to do with clarity and freedom from anyone crowding in on me. It gave me a feeling of endless possibility that removed the anxiety and pressure I'd been feeling.

The experience left me knowing that I can return to that safe, timeless place both to deal with this particular issue as well as to operate the rest of my life."
