Nathan provided an empowering experience. After concluding my last session, I feel stronger and in control with future choices. Anyone who is struggling with addiction (alcohol, nicotine, food) I encourage you to consider hypnosis. This was a fantastic experience.

Nathan helped me through one of the hardest moments in my life and I thank him so much for it. Even the tools he gave me consistently work. Thank you Nathan for being a huge support in my life and making me laugh when I needed it! Nathan is a compassionate and excellent hypnotist and will help you through whatever you are going through! Thank you so much again Nathan!

Nathan is amazing! He is really great at listening and helping with personal issues. I have a lot of personal issues and he helped me get back in touch with myself. I have had so much more confidence since I saw him and have been feeling so much better and more in touch with myself. He is VERY helpful and I would highly recommend him!

I found myself struggling to maintain balance in life. As a wife, mom, daughter, sister, and working professional the stress was overwhelming. I was in stuck in a cycle of emotional turmoil and not able to be the best me. Nathan is awesome. He helped me identify root causes of my stress and taught me techniques to put those stressors in manageable buckets. I feel so much better. Thank you Nathan!

“Hurry to the deep blue ocean,Where you leave your past to drown.Let the waves wash over,Everything that lets you down.The water begins to shape,All the rough becomes now smooth.Once you were overwhelmed,Breath as it leaves the shore too.Hurry to the deep blue ocean,That used to hold you and...Walk the shore say bye once more,Go lay upon the sand.”I’ve let bad choices, addictions, and loss consume me to the point I was trying everything to get past the shell of a man I had become. I could not break through trying multiple treatment/counseling centers. It wasn’t until I was referred to Fredericksburg Hypnosis. I’ve got a long way to go still, but there are no words I can express in this review that can fully show how grateful I am. I feel better today than I have in years.. I enjoy things again. I have hope, I’m inspired to write like I used to, etc etc.. don’t waste time reading any more reviews, just call.

I took my son here due to his anxiety/nervousness in soccer. He is an excellent player but over the last few years his mindset interfered causing him not to excel as a player as he used to. Recently I heard about hypnotherapy and researched it. I couldn’t believe how many famous athletes, actors, etc. used it and also it is less sessions than a psychologist. I found Nathan and my son was up to trying it. Nathan is very personable and very observant. He noticed things about my son that helped with the issue we were trying to conquer. Since seeing Nathan, my son has been practicing his what Nathan taught. He has felt better and says it has been working. He now has to try it on the field. I feel confident, and so does my son, that it will work.

I never knew what hypnosis was all about at the beginning, I prey to God to guide me to someone who can really give my daughter the help she needed and He directed me to this place which i call the blessed place. I wanted to try it for my daughter. She had fears and other issues for few years. She improved dramatically after a few sessions.Mr. Nathan is a very Compassionate, patience and understanding human being, the environment is secured and relaxing, I truly recommend it The best experience i had for my daughter, very happy with it.

Ive have had a HUGE fear of needles since I was 5 years old. (To the point that I have never had any immunizations, nor blood drawn.) I avoid these types of things at any & all expense. My husband & I have even had a serious talk that if I should ever get cancer, that I would choose to die in order to avoid treatment.Years ago, I had seen another therapist about my fear of needles. Unfortunately nothing improved and she literally told me I was too bad of a case to fix.Fast forward to Nathan... all I can say is that he helped me get through getting blood drawn like it was absolutely nothing. I need to go back again for another draw and I have absolutely no anxiety. I feel like he has been an absolute miracle worker! I honestly never thought this was possible. Thank you Nathan!

Nathan is absolutely incredible at what he does. I went to see him over an emotional problem that I’ve dealt with for over a decade that I could never shake. After talking with him I feel like I’ve overcome this problem almost completely. I never thought I’d gain control over my life again. He’s caring and charismatic as well which made me completely comfortable with him. I highly recommend him. You won’t regret it!

Nathan was professional and immediately helpful. He helped me breakdown the barriers in my own mind to assist me with quitting smoking. I was able to quit smoking after our first session. It was certainly an eye opening experience. After a couple months unfortunately I picked them back up. However, I called Nathan and was able to meet with him again for another session and I feel like I have the confidence and power to overcome the addiction once again. Breaking a habit of almost 20 years is difficult, but Nathan breaks down all of your mental blocks to give you the power to do it. The process is simple and easy but you have to want to do it for yourself. I would recommend his services to anyone who is looking to quit smoking or get over any habit.

I have suffered from PTSD most of my life. I’ve recently discovered hypnosis is a great way to “treat” or Regain control over mind and body.After one session I can honestly say it’s a great holistic approach to ease symptoms and/or flash backs.I was in a meditative state the rest of the day. With about 5-10 flash backs or twitches After my session. (A normal day would’ve been closer to 30-40 for the amount of time that passed)The mind is so powerful.I loved how he explained the brain science behind the what’s, how’s, and why’s.Understanding These helps you to retain the information for a lifetime.I’d highly recommend hypnosis and If your looking for someone who has experience in his field this is definitely your guy.

WARNING!! After they wave the watch in front of your face and make you fall asleep for their own entertainment they will have you walk around the office like a chicken! Obviously Im just kidding, but that was truly what I thought hypnosis was all about prior to me actually giving it a shot. Ive always just rolled my eyes and thought of hypnosis as a party trick and not real. Let me share something I learned, you dont know what you dont know. Ive been dealing with mental struggles lately as many others are, and being that Ive never dealt with anxiety or panic before in my life I was completely lost on how to get past it. I tried everything, doctors, chiropractors, psychiatrist, psychologist, acupuncturist, pulmonologist, neurologist, basically every type of gist there is, until I met Nathan Gist. At first I laughed at the idea but then I decided to give it a shot. Why not at this point right? To my amazement it actually did help. Not in the way I saw in movies where the man snaps his fingers and you are no longer afraid of heights, but in way that helped me open my eyes to problems that I am able to fix myself. It was like an intense guided mediation that really made me admit to myself things that may have caused my situation and allowed me to work through finding a solution. On top of that Nathan held me accountable. Things we discussed in one session he made sure I followed through with in the following week. He truly cares about what he does, is extremely professional, and was a huge help. Whatever your issues are, if you are ready to get past them and move forward in a positive direction I highly recommend Fredericksburg Hypnosis. If you want to quit smoking, have trouble sleeping, anxiety, panic, drug addiction, marital issues, pain, disease, etc. this is the place to go. Sorry for the long review, I just wanted to make sure those of you who were like me and didnt believe in this kind of stuff know that it is absolutely worth doing. Side note, dont look at the freaky clock on the wall when you wake up! Enjoy and be well.

After google searches for a hypnotist regarding child athletes and mental blocks for tumbling I came across Fredericksburg Hypnosis. I read the reviews and looked through Nathans webpage deciding to give him a call and send an email for the best ways of contact. Nathan reached back out immediately over the weekend. We spoke about my daughter and what was going on with her. He gave me a breakdown of how each session would work along with cost. There was no pressure during the phone call to make an appointment right away. We were able to schedule an one for a weekend after speaking with my husband (thank you for weekend appointments with kids and sports)!Upon arrival, and during the session, Nathan was kind, professional, and understanding. He listened to what my daughter had to say and explained to her, in a way for her to understand, how the mind works. There is no magic tricks and you are aware of what happens while he speaks to you. My daughter left the first session at ease and ready to tackle her nerves of tumbling. Nathan provides audio and visual programs along with different things you can do to help your mindset and move forward over the obstacle you are facing. I highly recommend Nathan!

I very much enjoyed my four sessions with Nathan. After each session I felt stronger and better than the last time. I went to him for some old demons I was dealing with and now I feel like a brand new person. Im ready to take on the world. I would highly recommend him to others. Thanks, Nathan. Youre awesome!

As a smoker of 25 years, I had tried many avenues to quit previously. Making the decision to go to Fredericksburg Hypnosis was the best decision I made (besides deciding to quit). I successfully quit after the first session. Each time I left there feeling renewed, positive, and ready to conquer whatever challenges I faced. Nathan is professional, friendly and personable. He makes you feel at ease throughout the entire session. Highly Recommend!

Review №19

I reached out to Nathan on the phone over a year ago in desperate need of simply “saving my marriage”. I suffered from extreme anxiety & other major negatives in my life I thought I was simply born with that could “never be changed”. I can say that today, 1.5 years later since working with Nathan as a happily married man that he can change your life for the better if you’re willing & understanding. This is a very long review (not something I ever do) because it is a very real experience. Please read:My first time talking with Nathan on the phone, I was immediately impressed with his genuine concern for someone he has never met. Here I was this random guy venting about divorce & he spoke with me for almost an entire hour that morning. This is something I will never forget & am very grateful for. Who does something like this? A man who truly cares about repairing another broken man is who.Months later after tons of research, I decided to finally meet & begin therapy. This type of therapy is not just beneficial while being “under” as many think. When you go in for each appointment, you have a conversation together about your goals, problems & concerns. Nate then gives excellent feedback on everything you cover, taking notes & showing genuine concern. This lays a solid foundation, I believe, for the incredible therapy work he does with grace, humor & elegance. As a former professional radio & television guy, nothing about what Nathan does during the therapy session feels recorded nor scripted as one review says. He is simply passionate about this & his therapy work is nothing short of incredibly well done. He reminds me of your favorite author, except they’re in the room reading you a story you’re a very real part of. The whole time you feel weightless as in a dream & he is extremely respectful & talented.Fast forward to today: my wife & I are expecting another baby & life is incredible. I do credit a ton of this to Nathan, as he has a true gift from God; for me that is priceless. The people who complain about costs on here simply don’t want to be spend the money to achieve their goals or have unrealistic expections for everything to be magical after one session. However, I will continue seeing Nathan for as long as I can see & recommend him to everyone I talk to. This man WILL change your life if you let him!

I went to Nathan for sports performance to learn visualization, mindset, and confidence tricks to use while I was out playing on the field. I did a little bit of research that showed a lot of strong athletes took different mindset classes in order to help them on the field with their mental game and I was interested in trying. I was a little skeptical of Nathan’s process, but after the first meeting I was hooked. I highly recommend Nathan because throughout everything we have done he always made sure I was comfortable with what we were doing. I really enjoyed learning all the tools that he taught me and I believe they helped tremendously on and off the field.

Definitely recommend Fredericksbug Hypnosis

Review №22

Yes I will be the first one to be very disappointed for the services I recieved. The session was very short and it felt like it was recorded. I am dealing with claustrophobia I went to him for help and it’s a very serious issues that I am dealing with. To be honest I felt kind of ripped off. The session I was provided was extremely expensive and I got NOTHING out of it. I promise you will get more talking to your mom or dad than him. I went based on these reviews but looking back at it I won’t be shocked if these reviews are false. He’s a very nice guy but please stop promising people just to get their money. And to all the people that are dealing with this my advice is that, you are the one that change your thinking be strong and believe in yourself.

My husband was so refreshed and energetic after his first hypnosis experience that I knew I needed to try what it was all about. Nathan helped me to address issues of anxiety, fear and plan for the birth of our son. Nathan is a great, professional, enthusiastic hypnotist who is truly passionate for the field and exceeds the needs of his clients. I definitely recommend him for any issue you are trying to deal with and develop tools to accept and overcome.

I have had four hypnosis sessions with Nathan Gist, and the therapy has had a significantly positive impact on my self-confidence and peace of mind. Nathan is a master at his craft, and he is also an excellent life coach. As a Christian, I am especially grateful for the fact that Nathan is also a Christian because he can weave the spiritual aspect into his therapy. I highly recommend Nathan’s hypnosis therapy for those looking to boost their self-confidence and/or begin the process of healing old wounds.

I went to see Nathan desperate for help with nervousness related to public speaking and stage fright. My 3 sessions with him were a huge success and I now have a new perspective when facing these moments. Much of the fear has been replaced with a confidence I hadnt been able to find before.

I was going through some personal matters such as high stress, insomnia, and difficulty speaking at lectures. I went to Nathan, and after a thorough history, he narrowed down the problem. I had my hypnosis session, and I received mp3 sessions to listen to at night or during the day. He made me feel comfortable, and he was very caring. With repeated sessions, I can fall asleep with ease. In addition, my stress is there, but my approach to it has improved because of the sessions that I experienced. Fredericksburg is very blessed to have him in the area. I would recommend him highly.

I started off so skeptical and full of doubt that this would really work for me. I can honestly say that Im not only in a better place, but that Im a better person. I owe it to your ability to see me for who I am not for who I was on the outside. You are awesome at what you do and I really wish that you didnt enjoy it so much. You are truly gifted at what you do and I think you would be miserable if you were doing anything else. You have the ability to positively affect so many people. You have greatly enriched my life and the lives of those that I deal with everyday. I cant thank you enough.

I found out about Nathan from one of his current clients who highly recommended him. From our first phone call, I felt at ease and that ease carried through the session. I approached him to help me with one issue and came away feeling as though that issue was conquered and many others as well. I feel even more centered, grounded and easeful as time passes. I highly recommend consulting with Nathan to see if hypnosis may help you.

I really enjoyed my four sessions with Nathan. I felt so relaxed and ready to take on the world after each session. I have learned to definitely handle my stress better and am looking forward to shedding the extra pounds I did hypnotherapy for.

I strongly recommend Nathan to anyone who has been struggling with letting go anything that is keeping you from reaching your best, true self. After the first session I quit smoking! A tremendous burden was lifted by going through this experience with Nathans help. Ive done everything in the past to try and quit with no success, until now!!

I have never sought hypnotherapy services before. So I performed a quick web search for options. Fredericksburg Hypnosis seemed the most inviting and had the greatest amount of credentials. After my first session, it was like a switch was flipped. I immediately had more energy and less distraction from my chronic pain. Fredericksburg Hypnosis is a far better option than traditional talk therapy. It is reassuring to know that this option is thee whenever needed.

I was a total skeptic at first, and a die hard smoker for 35+ years, I tried literally everything to quit. So, I couldnt have been more astounded to find myself after only 2 sessions (because of me, not Nathan) a non-smoker with NO withdrawal symptoms, NO desire or cravings for a cigarette and NO weight gain - in fact - Ive lost a couple of pounds. Nathan is a gifted expert in his field, thoroughly and completely understanding and easily communicating how the mind works and what you can do to change anything you want to change! I cannot say enough about how amazing my experience was and what a compassionate, knowledgeable and caring individual Nathan is -- he put me at ease immediately and his support throughout the process was more than appreciated. If you have any doubts -- please dont! Call Nathan and Im confident youll be amazed at your results. Thank you, Nathan, from the bottom of my heart!!! Vicki Northridge

Review №34

My daughter gave me four sessions at Fredericksburg Hypnosis for Christmas to help me with my weight loss. Although I was very apprehensive before my first visit Nathan was very easy to talk to and non-judgmental. He put me at ease right away and we were able to get started and within the first month I lost 10 pounds. I still have a ways to go but not only am I losing weight but I feel better about myself. Many people have a misconception of hypnosis as did I that it is some kind of magic or you will do things that you are not aware of doing. That is so far from the truth about hypnosis it now funny to me that the thought ever crossed my mind. I not sure how it all works but it does and Nathan is very gifted. You are always aware of what is going on and there is no need to be nervous. I would highly recommend Fredericksburg Hypnosis to anyone even if all you need is just that little push it get started in the right direction. This is the best gifts I ever received!One of the items that has caused a problem in my diet is drinking soda. Each soda is at least 150 calories I was drinking between 6-8 soda per day. Since my first session with Nathan on February 14th I have not even wanted to drink a soda. Do you realize how many calories and sugar consumption I have saved myself. Since I am a diabetic that was a giant step for me toward better health.

Review №36

So Ive waited a year since my first session to write this. I thought it worked, but having given it time there are no doubts. There arent words to express how life changing going to see Nathan has been. Ive struggled with anxiety for 26 years. In and out of different therapist offices. Self help books. And oh, living with quirks, rules, ocd thoughts. Not sleeping or eating or functioning. I was ready and I implemented what he taught Nathan. He listened to me and brought ideas and suggestions that worked for me, and how my mind processes. Without him, I would not have had the correct tools to move from functioning with anxiety to tackling it. There is a difference, I did not know it until now. I have done so many things recently that I was terrified of before. From the small daily weird quirks to the biggest, getting on a plane. You have to be ready for change. Believe its possible. And work on changing your destructive thoughts. Thank you Nathan

I went to try Hypnosis from Nathan Gist - Hypnotist. He did Hypnotherapy on me. It is life changing. He can help you deal with past life events, help you find/figure out what self-defeating behaviors we have in the way of getting what we want in life. He helps people stop smoking, lose weight, overcome anxiety, pain managment, etc. Hes helped me in so many aspects of my life, Id recommend him to and Fredericksburg Hypnosis to anyone.

Review №39

I decided to try hypnosis after meeting Nathan Gist at a meeting. I had been really struggling with my weight (addiction to soda & fast food among other things) and under A LOT of stress. I truly was an emotional mess. Nathan made me feel completely at ease about the process by getting to know me better and understanding my goals. He is an amazing person who truly cares about his clients. I cant begin to tell you how these sessions impacted me. He totally broke me of my food addictions and I ended up losing 12 pounds during our sessions and it continued afterwards. As for the stress, this is going to sound totally corny, but when I left my sessions with him I felt so good about myself I felt like I could fly! He really helped me get past the issues that were weighing me down and gave me a freedom I had only known through one other method before. If you are having any hesitations about seeing him please dont, this experience truly changed my life and I am confident it can do the same for you.

After my first hypnosis session with Nathan I felt an enormous relief from ongoing anxiety and I finally experienced a sense of hope. I have been dealing with a long term anxiety and stress resulting from major life changes in the past 2 years and recently I also began to give into a depression as well. I decided to call Fredericksburg Hypnosis after seeing an article about Nathan in the local paper. after leaving a message, he got back to me very quickly and agreed to see me outside his regular schedule. He is extremely compassionate and intuitive which put me at ease and overall made the session very effective. He also taught me very easy relaxation techniques that were later reinforced under the hypnosis state. I am looking forward to coming back for my second session. I recommend Nathan to anyone who is interested in hypnosis and self-healing.

I have worked with Nathan on a couple of issues one being my weight. I went to him and in a 6 month period he changed not only the way I was eating but the reason I was eating poorly which resulted in 50lb loss and increased my desire to attend the gym.My second issue was which I did not know I had was claustrophobia. I desperately needed a simple CT scan but the thought of having something that size over my head just sent me over the edge. Nathan changed my subconscious which allowed me to not only do the CT once but 3 times.Nathan has not only solved my problems but he has also solved several of my friends issues. He is the real deal!!!

Review №43

Dealing with aging, retirement, moving, and just daily demands on my time sent me into days of fear and anxiety. After reading posts on the internet and articles in health magazines, I wanted to try hypnotherapy. To my great surprise Fredericksburg Hypnosis popped up and I made the call. Nathan called me back that afternoon and my immediate feeling was one of calm and hope just by the phone conversation. At my first session, Nathan provided me with tips, tools and techniques to halt the anxiety before it gets a grip on me. The second and third sessions were more tailored to my fears and getting to the root of them. I found all 3 sessions to be most helpful and as I utilize what Ive learned (and what Ive learned about myself), I have hope that one day soon I will discover the joy in each and every day. I especially appreciate Nathans methods of bringing mind, body and spirit together! Nathan is a gift to the Fredericksburg community.
