MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Most people have something in their lives that they would like to change, whether it's to lose weight, quit smoking, get rid of some phobia or habit that is holding them back. Often these things seem too difficult to change. Most people never think about hypnosis as an option, their knowledge limited to stage shows or movies where hypnosis and mind control play a part. Modern hypnosis is a widely recognized practice that has helped millions of people overcome all kind of challenges. I started my practice with a focus on sexuality and that still forms a large part of my what I do, working with people with ED, PE, lack of desire, inability to orgasm, assisting them in enhancing their erotic lives, experiencing more pleasure, removing mental and emotional block that interfere with accessing their full sexual potential. I have expanded into medical hypnosis, removing symptoms of seemingly incurable conditions when doctors have given up on their patients and helping people deal with chronic pain. I've studied "Hypno-Oncology" enabling me to support patients on their Cancer journey, helping with pain, depression, and the various side effects of Cancer treatment. Studies have shown that Hypnosis can strengthen the immune system, lower blood pressure, among many other things. I have worked with many clients who had been in therapy for decades and were unable to get relief from their issues only to completely overcome them in one or two sessions of hypnosis. Certainly, in our stressful times hypnosis has become the go to treatment for anxiety of all sorts. If there is anything in your life you would like to change contact me and let's discuss how we might work to get the life you want.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
The many successes achieved by my clients continue to fulfill my professional life. Be it as a hypnotist, hypnotherapist, or educator, I have witnessed those with whom I have worked accomplish so much because of their hard work, made easier through hypnosis, hypnotherapy, and their use of self-hypnosis. As I always tell my clients: "Your successes are 95% your doing. I have simply been your guide, in bringing out your potential." At the same time, I teach clients self-hypnosis so that they are able to self-manage challenges that may arise moving forward. Increasing confidence and motivation at a subconscious level, has propelled them toward achieving their goals and objectives far sooner than would otherwise be the case. I feel privileged to have joined so many individuals during a formative part of their journey. I encourage you to engage thoughtful evaluation when choosing a hypnotherapist. It is important to weigh each professional’s education, training, diversified experience, and competence as communicated by professionals in the same or related fields. In these regards, kindly visit my website at www.HypnosisMotivation.com. There you will learn what both clients and professionals have written about my service delivery. Their testimonials address my performance in private practice; the work I have done educating and training psychologists and marriage and family therapists throughout California; an overview of my work as a Senior Clinical Instructor in a medical center's pain clinic; and my service delivery as an adjunct professor, teaching hypnosis / hypnotherapy subject matter classes for the Department of Educational Psychology at California State Northridge. Beyond the foregoing the deciding factor in your choice of a hypnotherapist should be your own compatibility assessment with that individual, following a consultation about your expectations, goals, and objectives. I welcome you to have a consultation with me, at no charge, in these regards. You can phone me at (805) 358-1011 or email me at Stuart@HypnosisMotivation.com. Be well, Stuart
