I have personal experience working with persons with Alzheimer's. I understand that the best way to work with a person with Alzheimer's is to "join their reality". I utilize compassion and a gentle approach, sometimes with a touch of humor.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Though I haven't yet worked with any Alzheimers clients, I have worked with some Parkinson's subjects as well as other neurological problems. Hypnosis has been shown to be effective in helping with Parkinson's tremors as well as other aspects of the condition including depression. I was asked if I could help someone suffering from a condition called Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, which is related to ALS or Lou Gehrigs disease. It is a condition with no cure or treatment. When I first met the client, he had been deteriorating for 12 years and was expected to die soon. He was confined to a wheelchair and could no longer speak. He drooled constantly and though wearing a bib, already in the morning was soaked with saliva. He suffered from tremors and got locked in repetitive movements several times a day, had trouble sleeping and couldn't get motivated to do his physical therapy, the only thing his doctors could offer him. In our first session, we were able to eliminate the tremors and repetitive movements, get him to sleep more soundly, and motivate him to do his PT. After the second session he was able to speak for the first time in ears and he got out of his wheelchair and walked. After 5 sessions you couldn't even tel he was sick and now, 6 years later, he's till walking the dog, gardening, hiking his favorite trails.

Wichita Falls is a north Texas city near the Oklahoma border home to Sheppard Air Force Base, one of the largest Air Force training installations in the world and a NATO flight training center, which significantly shapes the local community and mental health landscape through a large and constantly rotating military population that creates specific needs around PCS (permanent change of station) transition stress, military family dynamics, and service-related mental health. Midwestern State University adds a student population to the city's character, and United Regional Health Care System provides behavioral health services to the community. The city's identity is defined by military service, Texas conservatism, and the particular social dynamics of a mid-size community whose economic and cultural life orbits significantly around a major federal installation. Common therapy concerns include military transition and family stress, deployment-related mental health, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of building lasting community roots in a city where a significant portion of the population is on orders and will move in two to four years.
