“Thank you for forever changing my life for the better. You have helped me with issues that have been problems for me since childhood. You are truly a professional and I highly recommend you to family and friends.”

Gehrin Ortiz, Mortgage Broker, Thousand Oaks

“I am continuing the work that we started together, and sometimes I am surprised to realize how great I feel— both spiritually and physically. I am getting better at consistently choosing happiness and it has changed my life. Thanks again for your work and inspiration.”

Mariana Lajmanovich, Music Teacher, Los Angeles

I started smoking when I was 12 years old, needless to say smoking was my way of life.  All that time, I had been living an incomplete life; I missed the toast at the wedding of a very dear friend, where I was the maid of honor, because I was outside smoking. I called Dr. McGrail put of sheer desperation, one day I woke up and realized cigarettes had taken over my life.  As soon as I heard his voice I was hopeful, he took the time to listen and explain, he was understanding not judgemental.  One session was enough for me, six days later I was able to get on a plane without smoking half a pack before boarding. I can't put into words the impact this has made in my life, words can never be enough to thank Dr. McGrail for giving me my life back.

Grisselle Rodriquez, , Business Executive, Los Angeles

 

“Dr. John McGrail’s hypnotherapy provided me with just the tools I needed to finally get my eating habits— and my weight— under my control.  John took the time to really understand my unique situation. I look forward to our sessions as powerful, relaxing, and fun. Most importantly, I’ve gotten results.”

John Denissen, Fund Raising Executive, Corporate Consultant, Venice

“As a CEO, it is my responsibility to maintain a level head and balanced outlook when making critical business decisions. The stress of my role combined with the pace of modern life was manifesting itself in negative behavioral patterns. Through a series of treatments, Dr. McGrail has led me to a point that allows me to monitor and maintain a sense of mental balance and positive energy in my life.”

Chris. Rathman, Corporate CEO, Los Angeles

“Dr. John McGrail gave me the courage and the tools to finally get over my smoking habit.  I really didn't’t think I could ever beat it, and with John’s help it was painless. I am a believer!”

Jane Revner, Curator, Los Angeles

“I can only speak highly of Dr.John and his professional approach and personable manner. He made me feel very comfortable— I will recommend him to my colleagues, employees, and friends.”

Steven. Karmon, Graphic Designer, Los Angeles

I am still amazed that I simply don’t think about smoking any more— I mean I think about it now and then, but it’s simply not an option and that’s it, I’m done. Thank you, Dr. McGrail, for helping me through this in such a painless manner. You’re the best!

Jackie Peterson, Customer Service Rep, Los Angeles

“My hypnotherapy sessions with John have had such an incredible impact on so many aspects of my life. Where previously I struggled with my weight and self-confidence, John helped me develop a positive focus for my life that he then reinforced through the hypnotic suggestions. It was all a very natural and pleasurable experience.”

Ashlie Larson, Media Executive, Culver City

“Dr. John McGrail is a gifted hypnotherapist.  His sessions are safe, simple, and pleasant.  He has helped me to make significant and satisfying behavioral changes.”

Anne Saldo, Licensed Acupuncturist, Santa Monica

"Dr. McGrail was able to help me quit smoking, and then give me the mental tools necessary to enforce the therapy and allow me to combat the mental urges that make us all do things habitually, even if they are bad for us. Thanks John, you not only changed my life, you saved my life!"

Amy Nichols, Executive Assistant, Studio City

"Well, all the work we've done paid off!  I've met a beautiful woman and
recently enjoyed my first evening of intimacy in 8 years! I am not sure what will happen next between us but I am open to all possibilities. I would be content with a relationship developing or just leaving it where it is... So, I just wanted to let you know, thank you for all your help, and confirm what you probably already know: it works!  Add another success story to your list. Thanks Doc."

Dennis Levanue, High School Teacher, Santa Monica

"In our first conversation, I learned that Hypnotherapy only works if the desire to quit is there, but desire alone is not a remedy by any means.  Dr. McGrail was able to help me grasp the reasons, conscious and subconscious, as to why I smoked, allowed me to recognize the triggers and prevent them from making me act out by smoking.  It only took one session to quit and one additional reinforcement session for me to absolutely control my own urge to smoke. I’ve never felt better. " 

P.K. Phillips, Graduate Student, San Francisco

"When I first saw the ad for Hypnotherapy as a remedy against an addiction of cigarettes I was skeptical because I figured if it were that easy, then why was it not more popular as a final remedy?  Still, I had tried almost everything else: the patch, the gum, sheer will (this never works), so this was my last hope and I felt I had nothing to lose. It only took one call for me to get a complete understanding about Hypnotherapy and to remove the mysticism I had associated with it so that I could understand the clinical application of this proven method of treatment. After the first session I was no longer a smoker. I’m still no longer a smoker. Thank You!"

 Lee Mercer, Corporate Executive, Los Angeles

“I was at a party and one of my friends asked me what had been my highlight for the year. I thought about it and then replied, ‘meeting and working with Dr. John McGrail. He has helped me accomplish something I never thought I could.’ I eat so healthily now, I exercise when I can, and I’m feeling so good!  This is a lifestyle I can live with for the rest of my life. Thank you, John, for helping me to help myself!”

Miriam Malabicky, Teacher, Los Angeles

"I'm a rare breed:  I'm a Los Angeles native.  So, it goes without saying that I've been driving for most of my life.  I spend enough hours on the road each week to qualify driving as a part time job.  

So, imagine my surprise when I started having anxiety about driving.  It started with hating driving against the center divider when it is only about a foot away.  Then it moved into being nervous around trucks.  Then it was hills.  Finally it was almost all the time. Something needed to be done...and quickly!

Now, I know enough to be able to say my driving anxiety had something to do with feeling out of control.  I also know sometimes fears are irrational.  So, I opted to treat this in a different way than the usual therapy route.  I decided to try hypnotherapy.

I found Dr. John McGrail through my former networking group.  He is a soft spoken man who exudes an empathetic nature.  I liked him the first time I met him.

My first session was two hours. I'm not sure what I was expecting.  It was an intensely relaxing experience.  I also was conscious every moment of it.  It centered around a bunch of visualization techniques that I still use if I ever need to calm down.

I was amazed to discover after my first session my driving anxiety was gone.  I was half way through the Pasadena freeway, riding the center rail before I realized it wasn't bothering me at all.   I was stunned!  Elated!  I felt so free!

I had a few follow up sessions afterwards just to make sure it stuck.  Strangely, I looked forward to these sessions every week.

Then I was done.  Released to drive on my own.   

I'll admit, I've felt a twinge of anxiety a couple of times since the therapy, but these have only happened when I've been really tired.  That nervousness and fear is nothing compared to what I was feeling before.  I consider myself over that anxiety for good!"

Heather R., Business Executive, Los Angeles
