OUR PERFORMANCE MODEL
Why Our Method is Different
We use a three-pronged approach in assisting you to reach your personal goals, by working holistically with body, mind, and spirit.
Coping skills are taught that are portable and can be implemented long after our private sessions are completed.
Our approach is based on a Performance Model that high achievers use, rather than on a medical model that focuses on diagnosable conditions.
We teach a “whole-brained approach,” using the attributes of the left- and right-brain so you can integrate strategy-building and Imagineering.

Client Testimonials
“Thank you so much for everything. I so appreciate your generosity with your time—It means a lot when I’m having such a hard time. I have so many wonderful tools you’ve given me. What I need to improve is allowing myself to stop where I am at times and do them (specifically, deep breathing)!”
Jeanne B.
“I just wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you for your workshop [Train to Regain for Stroke Recovery] that you presented at the NGH Convention. I have worked with one stroke [client] and now have another. Your workshop was so wonderfully presented. Thank you.”
Trudy Mardian
“I would like to thank you for taking the time to discuss your methods for enhancing performance. As one of the coaches of Bridgewater wrestling, I feel these techniques could provide some benefits to the kids in my program. I’ve told several parents in my program and there was some real interest.”
R. Noble
“She gave me an audio tape to reinforcing this imagery that I listened to twice a day for a month. I went back to the doctor, and he said the bone was now healing. The only way I can explain this is that the imagery worked. The mind and body are truly one. Thank you, Dr. Silverstein, from the bottom of my heart for helping me to save my leg and regain my life.”

What is hypnosis?
Despite popular misconceptions, hypnosis is a tool that allows a person to use more of their mind and to use it more effectively. Hypnosis is a state-of-the art tool for improving human performance. It is relaxed receptivity with increased perception, a state of deep relaxation that quiets the body and opens the mind to positive suggestions. Suggestions are received in a very relaxed and aware state to suspend the rational logical filters in the conscious mind that developed in response to the underlying causes of the issue at hand. Hypnosis removes the barriers and limitations we, as individuals, have placed on ourselves or allowed others to place on us so we can function more effectively. Any motivated person can learn visualization, positive self-talk, mental recall, relaxation, and breathing techniques and use them to overcome limitations to be successful.
