An expert in psychotherapy and medical hypnosis for procedures, including childbirth, smoking cessation, trichotillomania (hair pulling), weight loss, and various symptoms, Eleanor Laser, Ph.D. is celebrating 35 years as the owner of her hypnotherapy practice, Laser, LLC. There, she works directly with patients in private practice, and conducts seminars for medical personnel. Furthermore, she offers worldwide conferences and sessions, and trains medical professionals in hypnosis for medical procedures and rapid rapport communication skills. Dr. Laser specializes in age regression and therapeutic changes in the first session. The highlight of Dr. Laser’s career was the first time she utilized hypnosis to assist a person undergoing surgery without anesthesia.

Dr. Laser is the co-author of the book, “Patient Sedation Without Medication,” which won the Arthur Shapiro Award for being the best book on hypnosis. It serves as a resource guide for doctors, nurses, and technologists, and is available through her website. Looking forward, Dr. Laser would like to continue to train groups of people on how to use hypnosis in order to reduce the need for anesthesia and speed the recovery process. She also hopes to conduct more workshops and seminars focused on this purpose.

Dr. Laser also conducts sessions on Skype. For more information about her practice, please visit www.laserhypnosis.com.
