Here is a little about my background. I will be happy to tell you more on the phone or when we meet. You will find an article the Barrington Times did on me by clicking here.

First, I am a certified hypnotist who has practiced hypnosis and hypnotherapy for over 25 years and in Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts since 1998. My business is helping people bring new possibilities into reality.

My certification is by a national association (The National Guild of Hypnotists). It requires ongoing education and adherence to a rigorous ethical standard.

I have an undergraduate degree in psychology (Hofstra University, 1970) and a MA in Anglo-Irish Studies (University College, Dublin, Eire, 1971) and am a member of Rhode Island Mensa.

Here are some highlights of my career as a hypnotist, hypnotherapist and coach:

• 1976 - Attended and graduated from the American School of Hypnosis in New York City. Certified  for the first time as a hypnotherapist by the National Guild of Hypnotists.

• 1983 - Developed, produced and marketed Hypnovision Video, the first video program using both hypnosis and subliminal messages. Hypnovision Video was featured  on NBC and ABC national news and in many national magazines. The videos and an audio line were distributed nationally by Waldenbooks,
  Barnes and Noble, B. Dalton and other outlets in the mid-1980s.  Thousands of people have benefited from these programs by purchase as well through  rentals, libraries and treatment programs at mental health and addiction recovery clinics. Weight Loss, Stop Smoking, and Stress Release video and audio programs were published in the mid-80s. I  added New Millennium Stress Release Video in 2000. This program is available at The Tree of Life Wellness Center.
   
• 1988 - 1998 - Training as a coach in Landmark Education's Self Expression Leadership Seminars.

• Since 1998 -  Full-time practice of hypnotherapy and HypnoCoaching  helping a wide variety of people  from all walks of life lose weight, stop smoking cigarettes, reduce stress and make many other personal  and career changes. Advanced coursework in hypnosis and hypnotherapy at New England Institute of Hypnotherapy  with specialized courses at other schools. John completed level One Tobacco Cessation Specialist training  at Massachusetts General Hospital and "Foundations of Addiction Counseling" at RI's D.A.T.A. program.
   
• 2006 - Moved my practice from Providence, Rhode Island to Seekonk, Massachusetts and Warwick, Rhode Island.
   
• 2007 - Co-created with Jane Jansen of the Tree of Life Wellness Center the InControl Weight Loss Program, a seminar series that is helping participants lose weight and keep it off. For the InControl Program John has produced 9 new hypnotic CDs on topics such as Night-time Eating, Exercise Motivation, Eating Healthfully at Restaurants, Body Image and other weight loss topics.
   
• 2009 - Created and lead "Out-of-Work but In-Control", a free public service group combining hypnosis and coaching for unemployed.  Featured in Channel 10 with Brian Crandall and Channel 6 click here for TV broadcasts.
   
• 2010 -  Board Certification granted by the National Guild of Hypnotists. One of less than 300 Board Certified Hypnotists in a national organization of over 6,000 professional members.
   

I live in Barrington, Rhode Island with my wife, daughter and our cat Mesmer.
