Hypnosis Counseling Center Celebrates 30 Years with New Office

For more than 30 years, Hypnosis Counseling Center has helped individuals achieve lasting and positive life change—overcoming issues like smoking, overeating and stress—to lead healthier, happier lives.

The Hypnosis Counseling Center is the regional authority in hypnotherapy and they work closely with clients to achieve life changing goals with a high degree of attention, encouragement and personal support. It is a full-service center, using the art of hypnotherapy in both private and group settings. Their clientele is quite diverse, having worked as consultants for the State of

New Jersey and created tailor-made programs for Fortune 500 corporations. They regularly hold adult education seminars, work with hospitals and fitness centers and meet with individuals who want to better their lives.

Though the main focus of the practice has been weight loss, stress reduction and smoking cessation, the Hypnosis Counseling Center deals with over 25 different issues, including enhancing and maximizing performance in sports, acting, singing and more. Additionally, there has been an influx of golfers seeking to improve the mental aspect of their game through hypnosis. Other areas that the Hypnosis Counseling Center can help with include: self-esteem, insomnia, fears and phobias, test taking, public speaking, panic attacks, migraine headaches, sales motivation and more.

Using progressive relaxation, visualization and suggestion, clients are able to create positive changes in their lives.

Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
