Harley Sears, award-winning author & hypnotherapist
Hi, I'm Harley
With 27 years of experience beginning as a Mental Health Specialist at a psychiatric hospital, I've built a successful hypnotherapy practice helping thousands of clients overcome personal challenges. I hold a Diploma in Hypnotherapy from HMI College of Hypnotherapy, a Wellness Counseling Certificate from Cornell University, and a Specialization in Integrative Health and Medicine from the University of Minnesota.
I'm the author of the award-winning book The Magic in Metaphor and the developer of Placebo-Enhanced Hypnotic Intervention™, my signature method that harnesses the scientifically proven power of the placebo effect to enhance hypnotic results, helping clients activate their own "internal pharmacy" for healing and change.
Effective hypnotherapy isn't just about technique; it's about connection, trust, and genuine care. My approach is conversational, not clinical. You'll feel like you're talking to a trusted friend who's invested in your success. I ask thoughtful questions, understand the root causes of your challenges, and customize every session to fit your unique goals and needs.

My Approach
Direct Access
I run a practice designed around your needs. When you reach out by phone, text, or email, you'll hear back from me directly (usually within 2 hours).
Flexible Scheduling
Life doesn't always fit into standard business hours. I offer day, evening, and weekend appointments, with same-day scheduling whenever possible.
Quality Time
Your sessions will last one full hour. You'll get the time you deserve to focus on your goals without feeling rushed.
Comfort Matters
Grab a cup of tea, wear your coziest clothes, and settle into whatever space feels best to you. Pets, pillows, and peaceful surroundings aren't just allowed; they're encouraged.
How Hypnosis Works
Hypnosis is a technique that induces a state of relaxation and focused attention, making the mind highly open to beneficial suggestions. In this state, you can achieve reframing of negative thoughts and limiting beliefs, essentially “rewiring” unhelpful patterns into healthier ones. By promoting calmness and using positive suggestions to shift your perceptions, hypnosis often enhances overall well-being and serves as a valuable tool for positive change.
During your session, we'll discuss your current goals and challenges. I'll gently guide you into a state of relaxation and deliver beneficial suggestions tailored to your specific needs. Most clients report feeling a sense of calm and comfort during their sessions, with a renewed confidence in their ability to create positive, lasting changes.
Don't worry if you think you can't be hypnotized. What really matters is your willingness to give it a try and stay open-minded. If you're genuinely interested and want to make a change, you can benefit from hypnosis.
While most clients experience improvements after one visit, research shows that results are stronger with multiple sessions. I encourage clients to return for additional sessions whenever they feel the support would be beneficial.
My fee is $150 for a one-hour session. I also offer discounted packages that reduce my fee to $100 (example: 3 sessions for $300, 6 sessions for $600). These are the only fees you will pay—no hidden costs, no surprise charges, and no additional fees of any kind.
Yes. Hypnosis is very safe when practiced by a qualified professional. Unlike pharmacological interventions or invasive treatments, hypnotherapy encourages you to become an active participant in your healing, providing practical tools and strategies for long-term success.
Hypnotherapy is not psychotherapy. Psychotherapy (which I do not provide) is the diagnosis and conversational treatment of emotional and mental disorders. Hypnotherapy (which I do provide) is the use of relaxation and suggestion to adjust habits of thought, feeling, and behavior. Hypnosis is considered complementary and is not a substitute for traditional medical care or counseling.
I conduct all sessions by Zoom for Healthcare, allowing you to experience hypnosis from the comfort of your own private space. After booking, you'll receive a link to join our session on any device. You can choose to have your camera on for a traditional video session, or opt for voice-only if you prefer. You can also switch between video and voice-only at any point during our session based on your comfort level. The entire process is designed to be seamless, confidential, and entirely focused on your healing journey.
Yes. Video-based hypnotherapy has proven to be just as effective as in-person. In fact, more people are now using video-based services compared to traditional office visits. Experts predict it will become the primary method for delivering hypnosis in the future.
Yes. Sessions are conducted via private, secure, HIPAA-compliant Zoom for Healthcare. Additionally, I use HIPAA-compliant scheduling software (Acuity) so you can be assured your data is safe when booking your appointments.
My clients consistently report successful outcomes, with many experiencing immediate relief, improved quality of life, and lasting changes to persistent problems that other methods failed to resolve. My extensive client feedback, documented case studies, and reputation among healthcare workers have established me as a trusted professional.
If you have questions or need help scheduling, please call (913) 999-5819. You can also email me at hypnosis@harleysears.com. I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation if you would like to speak before scheduling.
