Who is Hypnosis For?
Who is hypnosis for?
Hypnosis is for anyone who is willing, open, and able to focus — no special powers required. If you're curious about creating real, lasting change by working with your subconscious mind, hypnosis can help. Most people are surprised to find out just how naturally they can enter a hypnotic state — it's a skill, not a gift, and it starts with willingness and trust.
How can Hypnosis help me?
Hypnosis, especially when paired with life coaching, is a powerful tool for creating mental clarity, emotional healing, habit change, and spiritual alignment. My clients use it to release fear, build confidence, process past experiences, improve focus, and reconnect with their purpose. Whether you're working through anxiety, procrastination, burnout, or limiting beliefs — hypnosis helps you shift patterns at the subconscious level, so change comes faster and lasts longer.
What Is Important To Know?
Hypnotic Life Coaching requires honesty, emotional openness, and a willingness to engage.
✦ If you’re not ready to feel your feelings, even the hard ones, this may not be the right time for you.
✦ If you expect me to “fix” you or do all the work, this process won’t be a good fit.
✦ If you’re deeply attached to a victim mindset or unwilling to take responsibility for your growth, we may not be aligned.
✦ If you're unable to be honest — in or out of hypnosis — about what’s really going on, this process won’t be effective.
Why? Because your breakthrough depends on your courage to go there — and I’ll be with you every step of the way.
What if I have a diagnosis of a mental illness?
Many clients with a diagnosed mental health condition benefit from Hypnotic Life Coaching — especially when used alongside traditional therapy. Hypnosis is not a treatment for mental illness, but it can be a powerful tool to help shift thought patterns, emotional triggers, and internalized beliefs that contribute to stress, anxiety, or low self-worth.
If you're currently working with a therapist, we may ask for their written consent (especially for conditions like bipolar disorder, eating disorders, OCD, or BPD). Our goal is to work collaboratively and safely.
Conditions we may be able to support with proper clearance include:
✦ Depression
✦ Anxiety / Panic
✦ (C)PTSD
✦ ADHD
✦ Substance Abuse Disorder*
✦ OCD*
✦ Bipolar Disorder*
✦ BPD*
You’ll complete a full consultation before starting any sessions. [Schedule a Consultation]
Are There Any Mental Health Diagnoses That Prevent Working With a Hypnotist?
Hypnosis is not recommended for individuals with diagnoses involving psychosis, such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or delusional disorder. These conditions affect perception and reality in ways that may interfere with the focus and stability required for safe hypnosis.
If you’re unsure whether hypnosis is right for you, we recommend consulting your mental health provider before scheduling a session.
Our Perspective: Boundaries of Mental Health Services & Hypnotic Services
At Lynne Hypnosis & Wellness, we do not diagnose, treat, or provide therapy for mental health conditions. Our services are designed to complement — not replace — professional care. Hypnosis is a supportive tool that can enhance insight, confidence, focus, and healing, but it is not therapy.
If you’re currently in treatment, we encourage collaboration with your mental health provider to ensure that this work supports your broader care plan.
Hypnotic Life Coaching is not a substitute for counseling, but a unique process that blends coaching structure with subconscious reprogramming to help you move forward with clarity and empowerment.
Common Questions About Hypnosis
How does hypnosis work?
Hypnosis works by creating a focused and relaxed mental state — one where your conscious, analytical mind takes a step back, and your subconscious becomes more open and receptive. This relaxed state is something you already experience daily: while driving, watching a movie, or just zoning out.
In this state, we bypass the mental “filter” that usually resists change. That’s why willpower often fails — your conscious mind may want change, but your subconscious patterns say otherwise. With hypnosis, we speak directly to that deeper part of you and introduce new, aligned beliefs that support your goals.
It’s not magic. It’s science — and it works.

What's the difference between Hypnosis & Hypnotic Life Coaching?
Hypnosis is a powerful tool for accessing the subconscious — but it’s just that: a tool. In Hypnotic Life Coaching, I combine that subconscious access with the structure of coaching: clear goals, strategic action, emotional accountability, and long-term momentum.
This means we don’t just release the past — we build the future. We clear emotional blocks, then create aligned habits, boundaries, and mindset shifts that last. It’s faster, deeper, and more sustainable than coaching or hypnosis alone.
Can I be hypnotized?
Yes — absolutely. If you can follow directions, use your imagination, and are open to the process, you can be hypnotized. In fact, you’ve likely already experienced light hypnosis while watching a movie, reading a book, or zoning out on a long drive.
Hypnosis isn’t something that happens to you — it’s something you allow. It’s a skill that gets easier with trust, comfort, and practice. You don’t need to “go deep” or feel a certain way for it to work. Just show up with willingness, and I’ll guide the rest.
Who will be Hypnotizing & Coaching Me?
You’ll work with me, Kimberly Lorenz — a Board-Certified Hypnotist and certified Life Coach. I specialize in Hypnotic Life Coaching, which blends subconscious reprogramming and practical coaching tools for lasting transformation.
You’ll be treated with warmth, professionalism, and respect — always. Our work together is confidential, collaborative, and centered around your goals. Whether you're here for confidence, healing, focus, or spiritual growth, I'm here to help you move forward.
Are there any risks with hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a safe, natural, and client-led process. It’s been used for decades in both clinical and personal development settings, and it's recognized for its effectiveness in areas like stress reduction, emotional resilience, and behavioral change.
You remain fully aware and in control during your session. Hypnosis is not sleep, mind control, or anything invasive — it’s simply a shift in awareness that allows you to make intentional changes at the subconscious level.
How do I find a reputable hypnotist?
Look for someone who is not only certified, but continues to invest in advanced training and ethical standards. A strong reputation, real client reviews, and transparency in their process are also key indicators of a trustworthy practitioner.
I am Board Certified through the National Guild of Hypnotists — a credential that only 3% of hypnotists attain. This means I’ve gone beyond basic certification and meet higher standards of skill, knowledge, and ongoing education. Most importantly, I believe in earning trust through professionalism, integrity, and results.
Do you offer spiritual sessions like LBL (Past Lives)?
Yes. For clients drawn to deeper spiritual work, I offer advanced sessions like Life Between Lives Hypnotherapy — an immersive spiritual regression process that explores the soul’s journey, life purpose, soul groups, and connection to higher guidance.
These sessions are optional and highly personalized. Some clients pursue them as part of their full transformation journey, while others come specifically for LBL work. Wherever you are on your spiritual path, we’ll honor it — with safety, depth, and compassion.

6 Common Hypnosis Myths!
Myth #1: The Hypnotist will be able to control my mind.
Fact: No one can control your mind, unless you let them.
Your Hypnotherapist will give you suggestions that you want to be given, based on the Pre-Hypnotic Interview. At no point during your session will you lose control of your mind. If you hear a suggestion that you don’t agree with, or don’t understand, your subconscious mind will automatically reject it.
Myth #2: I will be made to perform embarrassing acts, such as bark like a dog, or walk like a duck.
Fact: This assumption is based on Stage Hypnotism and Hollywood fiction.
The truth is, these people volunteer to act on stage, and they allow themselves to participate in silly suggestions. Hypnotherapy is a serious process of self-improvement, not entertainment.
Myth #3: Hypnosis comes from “Black Magic,” “Supernatural,” or Spiritually Dangerous for Christians.
Fact: Hypnosis is a natural state that has been studied scientifically. Hypnotherapists are not Psychics or Palm Readers with “special powers”.
The truth is, these people volunteer to act on stage, and they allow themselves to participate in silly suggestions. Hypnotherapy is a serious process of self-improvement, not entertainment.
Myth #4: If I become Hypnotized, I may not be able to snap out of it, or Hypnosis is Dangerous.
Fact: Hypnosis is very safe and is safe.
Any time there is an emergency, a person would naturally be able to come out of the Hypnotic state by opening their eyes, and stretching or speaking.
Myth #5: I have never been in Hypnotized before.
Fact: Every person naturally enters a state of hypnosis at least twice a day.
Just before falling asleep at night, and upon waking every morning before getting out of bed. Most people easily enter into a light hypnotic state while watching movies or TV, while driving, or reading a good book.
Myth #6: Hypnosis is a “Miracle Cure.”
Fact: While Hypnosis is a relatively quick method of making permanent improvements, there is no such thing as a one-time “Hypno-Miracle!"
Every individual makes progress at his or her own rate. Be weary of those who make wild claims of overnight success.
