~Elaine uses muscle testing to ascertain what each person needs in the moment for the greatest results and then to test the success after each session.

~What People Are Saying About Working With Elaine:

~ “Elaine has shown me not only how to survive, but how to thrive. Whereas I struggled to, had to and needed to, now I want to, love to and choose to. If there is a way to reinvent the past so the present gets in balance, Elaine can show the way. I now fully accept myself.” ~Derek H, Computer Programmer.

~ “I have healed more, with tangible results, in a few sessions with Elaine than in 9 years of therapy. If you’re ready to live, I mean really ready, fasten your seat belt and call Elaine.” ~Renee B, CFO.

~ “I see myself growing in confidence by the moment.” ~Fredrick R, MFT Intern.

~ “Elaine is a gift for anyone who has the great fortune to know or work with her. She reaches out and enfolds you in safety and knowledge and commitment. She brings a magical quality to the sessions with her that makes you know that everything is possible. Don’t miss the opportunity to work with her.” ~Stephanie S. Massage Therapist.

~ “When I met Elaine two years ago, I thought I was OK. Just going through a little mid life crisis triggered by the fact that when my employer went public in 2000, I had more than a million dollars in shares, but after the big NASDAQ drop of 2001, what I was left with was a big car payment. If I felt disappointed, bored, pointless, and I couldn’t even sleep, wasn’t that to be expected from the situation?

Actually, I wasn’t even enjoying my sporty ride, because while driving at night through a snow storm on a mountain road in Arizona, I lost control of the steering and I almost fell down a cliff, then I had to continue driving like that for more than two hours, with anytime death by my side, in order to make it to some place where I could stay the night. That was traumatic, and later on each time I faced a turn I was afraid of loosing control.

Enough to say that on the second session of hypnosis I found myself joyfully riding a fast and powerful horse on a big range, feeling and knowing “I can handle all this power”, and the next time I was at the wheel of my car it was pop the clutch and make the tires scream.

Much more significant than that, I was having serious dry eye problems for years. We quickly figured out that some time ago, confronted with a sad family event, I had decided that it was too much pain for me to handle and that “I wouldn’t cry”. Elaine was masterful at guiding me so I would allow myself to feel emotions again, any kind, little by little. How much more rich my experience of life became, just with that!

It was mysteriously “magical” those days that I was finding situations that one after another would trigger all my issues and confront me with all my self-limitations. We worked out all those, understanding things like why I hadn’t been in a fulfilling loving relation for many years, why I was afraid of manifesting my power, how I had imitated role models without consciously choosing them. Elaine’s mastery of a wide variety of therapeutic techniques and outstanding capacity for understanding and interpretation was so effective and efficient, the amount of transformation that would happen in just one session was often unbelievable.

As I said, I was also feeling pointless, so eventually we set up a session to discover my purpose, which not surprisingly ended up being the same thing that nine years before caused me to leave a set up life in my country and enter the U.S. with a piece of luggage and a tourist visa. After some initial failure to make a career as a creative musician I had given up my dream, and I had tried to forget about it because it was painful to live with. I had achieved a level of material comfort I never had before, but that alone wouldn’t ever make me happy. I had to face what my real thing was, and do something about it. Over the years, I had lost my musical skills, and my equipment was outdated. Starting again was hard, slow, and discouraging at first, but I kept at it. Now I’m so happy I did.

It was of the utmost importance to realize that I had never learned how to love myself. Learning to love myself felt awkward at first, to say the least, but now it feels so good and natural. For that purpose, I had to learn to accept and like myself. That’s such a blessing!

I want to share that throughout my life in my quest for knowledge I had investigated several kinds of religions, philosophies, schools of thought, transformational tools and self-improvement systems, and all of them proved more or less valuable for a while. But I was alone in my path, and I had a deep desire for someone that could actually help me. Would a person capable of helping me actually exist? I am very intelligent and sophisticated person, which makes me hard to help. I had lost hope of finding any external guidance that deserved my trust. What a surprise I had!

Right now I have obtained enough mastery of self-hypnosis to re-program my unconscious mind as I wish, and all my “issues” are resolved. I’m pretty fixed, let’s say, but I still like to consult with Elaine on a regular basis, not for hypnotherapy, but for life coaching. Talking to her, I clarify my mind on the things that matter to me at the moment, and her feedback gives me unexpected insights and points of view that help me in all kinds of senses. Plus, it is always possible to refine the “fixing” of personal issues some more, or to erase a little fear that hadn't been noticed

At the moment of this writing, I am facing the highest level of uncertainty I have ever experienced in my life. All of a sudden, after living 11 years in the U.S., nothing less than my green card is being questioned. It may be approved next week, it may be declined forever, or it may take months to know what. Pretty tough, huh? I could be feeling a number of ways right now, yeah, but I am actually feeling great. Enjoying every moment of my life more than ever, even though I don’t know where am I going to be waking up each day a few months from now. I am creating beautiful music, dating girls that I like, and sleeping like a baby. At 44, my health, fitness, and energy are better than ever. I’m happy. I love my life, and its fun to see how things develop. Thanks Elaine for being yourself, and thank you for receiving my sharing.” George M.

I combine a variety of modalities to assist clients in achieving their desired results. Please refer to the list below for descriptions of some of these modalities.

~Holistic Life Coach

As an Holistic Life Coach, I assist people to discover and manifest their life’s dream and purpose. I help people to uncover and transform beliefs, attitudes, feelings, habits and behaviors that limit their happiness, success and fulfillment in life.

Then I help them unlock their own internal intelligence and power, to liberate and claim their gifts and talents in order to realize that dream or purpose.

~Grief Recovery™

Whether the loss is from:



• Death of a loved one • Divorce or end of a relationship

• Loss of career • Loss of a substance dependency • Loss of trust • Loss of dreams • Loss of security • Loss of health • Any Other Significant Emotional Loss

Grief is a normal and natural reaction to a significant emotional loss. Reaction to grief is as different as each individual,

As a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist™, I help people understand, resolve and release patterns that hold the grief in place. Most unresolved grief is about wanting things to have been different, better or more. Usually there are undelivered communications to be resolved. Recovering from grief allows a person to move beyond their grief to a richer quality of life. As a result life may become more enriched, more alive and more fulfilled than ever before.

~Hypnosis

The wonderful thing about hypnosis is that it can access your subconscious. Why is that important? Because your subconscious maintains 88% of your power to choose. That’s why logic and willpower don’t always work. Your subconscious mind will keep you doing those things it believes you want, even if you have consciously changed your mind. The key to change is communicating with the subconscious.

The subconscious holds all of the beliefs and assumptions that you’ve learned and adopted over your life. It holds the map by which you live. That’s why accessing the subconscious and changing any beliefs, habits and fears that prevent you from having what you want into supportive beliefs, attitudes and behaviors is so powerful. Limiting beliefs and behaviors can be easily changed and new life-long tools can be learned and retained. Change occurs quickly and naturally. When you change your beliefs, you change your behavior and transform your life. Hypnosis is an effective way of presenting the mind with positive suggestions, enabling your conscious and subconscious to work together. The results can be truly amazing.

Hypnosis is a completely natural state of deep, relaxed, peaceful calm, aligning your conscious and subconscious mind, creating powerful “one-minded” results. Some people become hyper-aware during hypnosis. Some people feel like they’ve been in a deep sleep. Some people even have discussions with themselves about whether they are in hypnosis or not. Everyone’s reaction is different. The good news is that it works just as well on people with any of these reactions. Anyone with the desire can be hypnotized.

You can hear and respond to everything during the hypnosis process and are an active participant in the therapeutic partnership. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. You are always in control. You allow yourself to become more suggestible. Your subconscious is actually doing the work. I am just the guide.

If you have ever been driving down the freeway and missed your exit, you’ve experienced a trance state, not unlike that of being in hypnosis. If you were totally conscious, you wouldn’t have missed your exit. If you were totally unconscious, you wouldn’t be able to drive. Yet, you know if something happened and you needed to be alert, you would be. Hypnosis is natural and all of us go in and out of hypnosis many times throughout the day.

While there is no such thing as “hypno-miracles,” most clients are amazed at how quickly they accomplish their desired results.

Hypnosis is now widely accepted as a method for treating almost every emotional and physical condition.

You cannot be hypnotized into something that you do not want. Nor can you be kept in hypnosis without your consent.

~Past Life Regression

Many of my clients have benefited from this exciting modality. Sometimes old patterns just don’t shift to our satisfaction. I have found that when a client “visits” a past life to discover the beginning “seed” of that pattern, the client can take the learning from the event and let the rest go. The pattern automatically shifts in this life.

It isn’t necessary to believe in a past life. Some people say the memory is in our DNA. Some people say it’s because we were here watching the events before we were born. Some people say it’s being made up by our imagination. It doesn’t matter what it is you believe. It works just as well for any one of these beliefs and for anyone willing to explore the possibilities.

~NLP

Neuro-linguistic Programming has been called the Science of Excellence. It was first developed by studying people who do things excellently, and what and how they do things differently than others. By looking at the minute details of the structure of how we create our reality, we can discover how we are creating what isn’t useful in our lives and shift the structure, which will shift that reality.

What does that mean? If you are doing something that isn’t useful in your life, we can explore it together and discover the foundation of it. I help you to understand your motivations. Then I teach you how to transform those into something that works better in your life. I believe that every behavior has a positive intent for you and that finding that positive intent allows you to discover options for yourself.

Fortunately, one doesn’t need to revisit the event that created it or experience the feelings. Change can occur without experiencing the emotions involved from the source of the behavior or feeling.

There are many tools within NLP that help do this. Belief Change, Core Transformation™, Parts Integration, Aligning Perceptual Positions, Quick Phobia Change, Releasing Enmeshment and Aligning Logical Levels are all examples of these powerful tools.

As you learn these tools, you can use them to create fast and long-lasting change in your life.

~Parts Integration

When we were young and something happened, we developed a certain behavior as a coping mechanism. It was most likely very useful at the time and in the circumstances. However, often we hold onto that behavior long past it’s usefulness in our lives. Parts work allows the discovery of the positive intent of the coping mechanism. The positive intent can be protection or safety or to get love. While the positive intent is something we don’t want to change, there are more effective ways of getting that positive intent in our current lives. This is the basis of Parts work; finding a more useful behavior that will still get the same positive intent.

~Time Line Therapy®

My experience with Time Line Therapy® is that we can remember events with a new perspective, with a different outcome or with different feelings. We can also “remember” or experience the future with emotional freedom.

Beliefs such as “I don’t deserve, “I’m not enough”, “I’ll never be rich,” and “life is a struggle,” and emotions such as fear, anger, guilt, shame and sadness run our lives.

Time Line Therapy® is a collection of techniques that allows remarkably quick, long-lasting transformation. The process works on the subconscious level and permits release of long lasting negative effects, beliefs, emotions and attitudes of the past, while maintaining the learning and wisdom of experience. It gives specific tools to create a future that motivates us into living fully into our goals and desires.

~Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

Founded by Gary Craig, this is one of the quickest tools I use to release feelings, beliefs and behaviors. It is also amazingly fast and successful in relieving an issue such as money, relationships, stress and anxiety, fears, phobias, overcoming trauma, and for physical issues such as pain, allergies, IBS, and premature ejaculation.

I use EFT by combining modalities from Kinesiology, NLP and Hypnosis. Fast and effective, EFT often works after everything else has failed.

~Muscle Testing

I use this technique with all other modalities to talk to the client’s unconscious and find out what is the underlying issue of the current behavior, the most beneficial modality to use to release that issue and the results at the end of the session. This is, without a doubt, the key to my success with clients. Since I have been using muscle testing, my clients’ positive results have increased exponentially.

~FAQ Questions answered by American Psychotherapy & Medical Hypnosis Association

~What is hypnosis?

“Hypnosis is a process during which an individual, usually with the aid of another, allows themselves to become more suggestible. One can experience changes in sensations, perceptions, thoughts, or behavior. Hypnosis is generally established by an induction procedure. Although there are different hypnotic inductions, they are based on imaginative involvement with focused attention and concentration.”

~What does hypnosis feel like?

“People respond to hypnosis in different ways. Some describe their experience as an altered state of consciousness. Others describe hypnosis as a normal state of focused attention, in which they feel very calm and relaxed. Regardless of how and to what degree they respond, most people describe the experience as very pleasant. A person's ability to experience hypnotic suggestions can be inhibited by fears and concerns arising from some common misconceptions. Everyone has a conception of hypnosis. It probably comes from depictions of hypnosis in books, movies or on television.”

~Will you make me quack like a duck?

“Those who have been hypnotized do not lose control over their behavior. They remain aware of who they are and where they are, and unless amnesia (the inability to recall past events, in this context the inability to recall what has occurred during the hypnotic session) has been specifically suggested, they usually remember what transpired during hypnosis, the only exception to this is what is called a somnambulist. A somnambulist is an individual who has the ability to go very deeply into hypnosis. A somnambulist will have total amnesia. Hypnosis makes it easier for people to experience suggestions, but it does not force them to have these experiences.”

~Can anyone be hypnotized?

“Although scientists have different theories about the nature of hypnosis, all seem to agree that hypnotized people report changes in the way they feel, think, and behave, and these changes are in response to suggestions. People vary in their degree of responsiveness to hypnotic suggestions, what is called their hypnotizability or hypnotic susceptibility, but most people can be hypnotized to some degree. Hypnosis is a naturally occurring phenomenon. We go in and out of hypnosis constantly, while watching an interesting program on television, reading a book, driving a car, or day dreaming, just to name a few. People who appear to be low in hypnotizability often can improve their response to suggestions with practice. If an individual is unable to use all of their hypnotic ability during a testing session, it might appear that they are a poor subject, but with improved rapport, many are able to improve hypnotic ability. Most clinical uses of hypnosis have been designed for the average individual, and a deep state of trance is not usually needed for most clinical treatment.”
