With great enthusiasm, I write this review about Ms. Clarice Barkhordarian and the hypnotherapy services she provided me regarding my sleep issues. Ms. Barkhordarian's professionalism was evident within the first five minutes of contact. During our sessions, I realized the depth and breadth of her knowledge base in hypnotherapy. Clarice is articulate, perceptive and warm. She clearly assessed my issues and worked with me to develop tangible and pragmatic solutions. As a result, my sleep issues are being progressively resolved. I look forward to future sessions with Clarice for reinforcement and sincerely hope we maintain contact!

I'd like to start with saying that I am a real human being writing this review. I have never written a review of anything until now. I have to share my amazing transformation with anyone who is considering leaving their addiction to smoking behind. more

Clarice had me convinced that it would be ""so easy"" when I phoned her for an appt. Had I Known that with the right frame of mind that Hypnotherapy would be like the magic no-pill solution to quitting smoking. I not only stopped smoking, I AM a PERMANENT NON-SMOKER!! more

I went to see Clarice at an extremely difficult time in my life last fall and she helped me through it. I have an anxiety disorder and I have tried to solve it with different types of therapy, alcohol, marijuana, zoloft...etc but with no significant improvement, I was still getting panic attacks left and right. After two sessions with Clarice I started to feel at ease and my panic attacks stopped. Clarice helped me dig deep and face what I was going through using hypnosis, suggestions, a very useful swish pattern (which I still use to this day) and she helped me develop a trigger that I can use whenever I need to. Within two sessions and I have found a peace of mind. Skeptical? I dont blame you. I was too. But hypnotherapy will work for you if you walk into with an open mind and a desire to try something different to get a change. One advice is follow through. You'll get the best results by absorbing what you discuss with Clarice and if she recommends a certain CD or gives you one, follow her instructions and listen to it. It's been few months after my last session and I still listen to her recordings and I get the outcome I want. more

I went and saw Clarice about 1 year ago for smoking and have not had so much as a puff of a cigarette since the day I walked out of her door. I used to smoke pretty frequently during the week and even more on the weekends. I tried so many different ways to quit and nothing was working for longer than a couple days. I am not sure if it was a mental thing or if I was truly addicted. I had heard about hypnotherapy and really didn't believe it at first but since I had literally tried anything and everything to quit, this was just another option. I walked in with an open mind and was actually excited. Clarice is very kind and makes you feel comfortable instantly. Like I said before, I went ONCE to see her and have not so much as to had a craving for a cigarette, nicotine, etc. I still do not fully understand how the process works and really, it doesn't matter to me because it worked. If I could give her 10 stars on this review I would. She has helped me overcome one of the worst habits of my life. Thank you Clarice! more

Do you want to attract love, success and health into your life. Clarice will guide you to reach your goals by helping you to reclaim your POWER and by helping you dissolve and release your negative thoughts and fears. On a practical level after one session she helped me overcome my fear of driving on freeways. Her hypnotherapy technique is so effective. She is a master and the environment is comfortable and safe. After 2 sessions with Clarice she inspired my husband to start going to the gym every day a feat I had not been able to achieve in years. I cannot recommend Clarice enough! more

When I was first referred to Clarice I was open but skeptical about hypnotherapy. But in the first session Clarice was able to take me to a very deep relaxing space while she inputted positive affirmations about my specific issue. She is an intuitively brilliant healer who has the ability to listen and then see exactly what is going on with you. She gives you her insight into your specific challenge and /or situation in a very loving non judgmental way. I was astounded at how clearly she was able to cut through the chase and see what is going on. I have learned so much about myself through our sessions which are 2 hours long. The first talking and the second hypnotherapy. She is brilliant and helps you achieve positive results in your life no matter what the challenge. I also love her affirmation and subliminal CDs which she gives to her clients as a gift. Don't hesitate to book a session with her now. It will transform your life. Karen I more

After 18 years of smoking, it was time to quit. I had tried a number of times before, but the withdrawal symptoms were so bad they were palpable. I tried self-help books, nicotine patches, and nicotine gum. Nothing worked. I really didn?t want to start taking medication to deal with my addiction, so after I heard about a friend going to Clarice for her addiction to cigarettes, I thought ?why not?? The worst thing that could happen was that I was still a smoker. more

I was in a bad way, at a ""breaking point"" . . . . By fate, I surfed the internet and found Clarice's website. I was always courious about hypnotherapy and decided to give it a try; anyway, I figured I had nothing to lose. Pros: Caring Approach, Quickly Identified Problem Source more

The first time i went to see Clarice, i was skeptical and was convinced the hypnotherapy wouldn't work (i already tried it with several other hypnotherapists), but i thought i'll try it anyway as i was in serious need of help. I haven't slept in 2 weeks with worries and fears, so i went. I was pleasantly surprised. After our first session, my life changed. All my fears, insecurities were gone and over the next few sessions, my self esteem, belief and positivity were becoming a permanent part of me. I feel fearless, happy and i feel like i can achieve anything i want in life. I love all the sessions, every session is different and personal to every person's needs and Clarice targets that. The best experience of my life! She saved my career and gave me a positive future. She could be everyone's personal ""Secret"". Thank you Clarice. Pros: Patient, understanding, kind, caring, amazing professional. Cons: None. more

I was really skeptical but since i told my partner i was going to see a hypnotherapist I had to go threw with it and boy am I so glad i did. It only took a few sessions and i was a changed man. I am over three months sober without any desires or graving to drink. I can host parties and be around alcohol without any problems of wanting one. I truly recommend you see this lady she is great!! easy going no hassles , its very simple... I highly recommend her. more

Since my first contact with Clarice over the phone I knew that she was going to be able to help me with my problem and as soon as I walked into our first meeting at that moment I felt like I can tell her anything that was going on my life at that time. Pros: Very good Person more

Like many people, I was initially very skeptical of hypnotherapy. My wife, who a few years ago was suffering from various allergies and had tried all kinds of cures before, signed up for a package of 10 sessions with Clarice. After a few very positive experiences with her, she encouraged me to try it, too. With nothing to loose, I decided to see for myself what a hypnotherapy session was like. That was a truly serendipitous experience. I was at the time under a lot of stress working on a new business. I hadn't even realized the need for some personal coaching and mentoring to deal with a new level of responsibilities. From the very first session, Clarice asked exactly the right questions, listened, and was able to pinpoint issues I needed to resolve in my thinking, if I were to rise to the new challenges. She then deployed, with great expertise, some of her many hypnotherapeutic techniques to ensure that I was actually able to affect the needed changes, and that the changes would be lasting. Lasting change, indeed, is what Clarice was able to provide. Her techniques may belong to the realm of hypnotherapy, but they're essentially designed to help focus the mind in such a way that it can establish new patterns of thinking, and rid itself of old, useless habits. Unlike many other therapists, coaches, and even psychologists, her goal is not to make you dependent on endless therapeutic sessions, but rather to teach you the tools to so that you can use those techniques on yourself. For instance, I often practice some of her guided imagery and visualization techniques before important meetings or project deadlines - using those techniques the desired outcomes become so focused, so real and detailed that preparation for such important events becomes much easier. In that sense, Clarice is truly a teacher, in addition to being a therapist. Another truly amazing aspect of Clarice's personality and professional approach is that she listens to her clients in a completely non-judgmental way. That is a very rare ability that I had never experienced in the presence of any person before. She is able to establish an environment where you can truly share with her your personal concerns and fears without having to worry that she'd form unfavorable opinions of any kind. That non-judgmental milieu then makes her therapy so much more effective. It also has long-lasting effects: having experienced such an atmosphere first hand means that we ourselves become better listeners in our relationships with our loved ones and colleagues. (It also has a downside, though: we will start to expect others close to us to have a similar attitude, which is not easy to come by.) I'd like to point out two more aspects of her practice that impressed me: First, she is very, very smart - if you like to have a really intelligent conversation about your issues with someone, Clarice is the person to go to. Second, she is also caring for her clients - she would follow up with phone calls and emails to make sure that the changes she helped affect are lasting. I could not recommend her more. Pros: You're lucky if you get to meet her more

from the moment I met Clarice, it literally was like meeting a long lost relative, that you are so happy to see, once again. Having gone to hypnotherapy school myself, I knew what to expect, but she blew me away with her techniques. I was so relaxed, that I didn't even realize I was hypnotized. We delved in about as deep as you can go into childhood issues, and she gently and lovingly guided me through things that literally have haunted me all my life. I finally feel a sense of hope that had always escaped me. I can't say enough for Clarice's patience, the time she takes to see you through, her genuine kindness that lights up the room, and gives you an amazing feeling of safety, of home. MY LIFE IS RICHER FOR HAVING THE GOOD FORTUNE OF KNOWNG HER. Pros: supportive, professional,very knowledgeable more

I was referred to Clarice by my sister. I mostly go for a couple of reasons. Relationship strategies, Goals/Motivation, Self-Esteem/Confidence and Emotional Healing. At my age and in my society when a person goes to therapy its because there is something mentally wrong with that person, basically they are crazy. But with Clarice its different I feel very relaxed to be able to open up to her and explain to her what my problems are. For the past year she has been able to make me feel like I am worthy of myself and that its okay to love myself first before anybody else. I am a very sensitive person and was very emotionally distraught. Her positve talks and encouragement has helped me grow as a woman. I am able to think clearly especially in relationships and my self-esteem has boosted more than I can possibly imagine. I was able to get over a very difficult relationship I was in and forget about all the hurtful things I went thru and concentrate more on how I as a person can move on and enjoy the blessings I have in life. Clarices' hypnotherapy works wonders and all the encouraging words make me feel better and better about myself. I am only 24 and I don't plan on ending my therapy sessions anytime soon. I will continue to go and have Clarice give me those wonderful motivating words. more

I signed up to quit smoking with Clarice. I found her to be such an excellent therapist, that i've continued sessions with her off and on over the past 2 years. Clarice was instrumental in helping me clear the mental road blocks that were preventing me from achieving personal happiness. her ability to zero in and help clear the negative subconscious thoughts, have enabled me to improve the relationships i have with others. By identifying the relationship i was having with myself, and working with her expert counseling combined with the hypnotherapy techniques, my self-esteem is up where it should be. I'm much happier and much more confident. My creative enegery and drive improved because i was no longer stuck in a cycle of depression. i can honestly say i would not be as successful in my business and family life today. Unlike other therapy sessions that are 45 minutes, barely enough time to ""unpack"" before time is up, Clarice gives you time to genuinely dig into issues, ending with a healing hypnotherapy session that sends you off on the right track. The cds she provides for reinforcement between sessions really work. Whenever i'm feeling stressed, or depressed, i put on the cd and allow the subconscious to stay on task. I've tried a couple of different therapists over the years. None of them were able to help me achieve the personal level of satisfaction and conflict resolution that Clarice has. more

Clarice is an incredibly kind, amazing person with a natural talent for healing. She helped me work through some childhood issues that were affecting my adult life and within a relatively short period was able to reclassify some fairly traumatic experiences. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to push beyond mental limitations. Her positive insight and consistent encouragement are well worth the price of admission. more

I learned about Clarice from one of my best friend?s who quit smoking after a few sessions. After a few conversations with my friend, I became very interested in hypnotherapy and how I could use this tool for my own life. I soon discovered that Clarice was the best investment I ever made in my life! Clarice has proven to be a trusted advisor and an enabler to living my ?best life?. I have learned to program my brain to take control over my actions and, thus, realize any goal. Although I am a very successful person, Clarice has given me the extra edge required to modify any self-destructive or non-beneficial behavior to ensure I am in control of the outcomes of my behavior. Two target areas that Clarice has helped me with include weight management and finding a life partner. She has helped me take my fitness goals to the next level as well as lose a dress size. She has also helped me focus on opening my heart to attract the love of my life and to be crystal clear in the goal of finding my life partner. Pros: Clarice is a true professional. Results are realized quickly and effectively. more

My son is a 17-yr old high school senior. He has had what other professionals called a ""stuttering problem"" since 4th grade. He has seen a few speech therapist since the problem arose without any success. Unlike the typical stuttering, he couldn't produce any sound when he wanted to talk, often having a soundless delay that lasted 5-10 seconds. This problem not only effected his academic performance, his football performance as a high school quarterback, but also social issues. All of us were so frustrated because their didn't seem like there was any solution, other than ""he'll grow out of it."" A family MD suggested hypnotherapy. We just got lucky to have found Clarice. more
