    I also found Alba through her recommendations on Yelp.  I'd never tried hypnotherapy before, so I didn't really know what to expect.  I was completely at ease with Alba and felt that she was really listening to me and trying to completely understand my situation.   The hypnotherapy portion was really cool.  I was worried that I'd have a hard time relaxing and getting into it, but she was so good that I didn't at all.  She really helped me to relax, and find peace and strength.  

    Another really cool thing is that Alba records the session and gives it to you to take it home - you can use it anytime you need to get back to that place of well being that you find in her office.

    I will definitely see Alba again.  Highly recommend to anyone feeling stressed or anxious!

    Okay, I was wrong. There's a difference between Hypnotherapy and stage hypnotist. I thought she could make me float, bark and do all kinds of weird things. I thought how could hypnotherapy help me?

    I was agitated and just not all there from all of the stress and lack of sleep I had experienced. 2 meetings with Alba worked better than any anti-anxiety medication my doctor prescribed and there were no side effects.

    Alba helped me deal with the lack of sleep, stress and mourning due to the loss of a loved one. She helped me grieve in a way that I cannot describe. If you know anyone who is in pain, stressed or just can't sleep, show them that you care and send them to Alba. She has a gentle and unique approach that is nothing like what you see on stage (BTW that as it was explained to me is not hypnotherapy). She is extremely professional and really thorough.  

    For me it was a Win Win situation.  I dare you to be daring and try it...

    Alba is wonderful!  Seeing her was like talking to a friend, and she helped me realize some things about myself and think about things in a different way.  She's intelligent, insightful, yet empathetic and down-to-earth.  I could talk to her about anything, and she wouldn't judge me, but would try to help me. Recommended!

    I found Alba through her high recommendations on Yelp.  I had experienced hypnotherapy before, and Alba's approach is different. She is talented at creating wonderful stories and images to help change your mental patterns. She digs deep to get to the root cause of things. I went for anxiety and insomnia, and I feel some difference there. The big surprise and win for me is that she helped my asthma tremendously. My lungs are now "the most powerful force in the universe" and I cut my inhaler usage by about 60%. I look forward to seeing Alba again.

    I had my first session of hypnotherapy ever with Alba. It was great and exceeded my expectations. I really enjoyed my session and it did make a difference for me. I recommend her services and enjoy your sessions!

    I had no expectations going into this, but what I experienced has had a profound effect on me.  I have had three visits to deal with self esteem/self worth issues.  The feeling of calmness and a sense of well-being is just a completely new thing for me.  I will continue my visits for awhile because I am finding that they are making such a huge difference in the way I view myself.  What an amazing experience!
