SMOKING CESSATION WORKSHOP;
by Judy Corcoran, Advocate Health Partners.
I wanted you to know that I have not smoked since January 1, 2007.  I used to smoke 2 packs a day. You are a miracle worker. I never had any strong cravings and it was a piece of cake.  I recommend you to everyone.

SMOKING CESSATION; by Ahmed Amer.
I had been heavily smoking the last two years. Just hanging out with smokers and going partying all the time turned me into a smoker. I had wanted to quit so many times but could not do it myself. Two sessions of hypnosis made all the difference. Every time I tried to smoke after the hypnosis, cigarettes tasted awful and I felt very guilty. I recommend it to all smokers. Now, as a non-smoker I feel so much better and I can walk up stairs without running out of breath.

SMOKING CESSATION; by Santiago "Jim" Edison.
So far not one cigarette. I was very surprised.  This is the longest I've made it, and it's been a year now.  Thank you.  I used to get the occasional thought in my head the first 2 weeks after I quit but there was no significant physical  compulsion that I had to fight ever.  Those periodic thoughts were very brief.  It really all feels like a distant memory.

WEIGHT LOSS; by S. Meshal, Hypnotherapist.
Marc St. Camille is surely a legend in his own time.  A truly gifted Hypnotherapist, Marc has skillfully guided me in my quest to master the areas of my life, in which I have constantly struggled to maintain control.  For the past thirty years, I have battled stress, weight issues and a serious sugar addiction.  After trying nearly everything else under the sun to no avail, learning that I was dangerously close to becoming a diabetic and once again, sadly considering gastric bypass surgery... I turned to Marc St. Camille as a last hope.  Marc's personalized, ingenious techniques are second to none.  I never would have imagined that I would one day be regarding sweets with the same simple admiration as I do a bouquet of flowers with no interest in so much as a taste or that I would ever be the type of person who happily turns to exercise to alleviate stress and anxiety!  I am astounded everyday and eternally grateful.  Give yourself the priceless gifts of peace, control and complete confidence by working with this world class professional.

WEIGHT LOSS; by Anna Smith.
I can't tell you how terrific I'm feeling!  have no idea how you did it and I really don't think I want to know how it works - just that it is working! "Free food" no longer has control over me!  It is freedom that I can't begin to describe. I am eating like my lighter self use to eat!  And not feeling hungry or craving food.  It is truly amazing!

WEIGHT LOSS; by Danielle Carr.
Thanks for everything. Your sessions have worked wonders!  So far I have lost 50 pounds!!

WEIGHT LOSS; by Alex Black.
As of yesterday, I am down 20 pounds in two months. If not for you I would be 220 lbs by now and on my way to a heart attack. With my mind working now the way it does after our sessions I actually look forward to going to the gym. My mind and body working together. Whereas before going to the gym seemed so difficult. I feel like a totally different person. Thank you so much, I could not have done it without you.

ANXIETY, DEPRESSION AND MOOD SWINGS; by Felix Romero.
Hello Marc, Let me say our first session has helped me greatly and I would like to sincerely thank you. It truly has felt like a dark cloud has been lifted and I feel this is only the beginning.

DEPRESSION; by Danny Stevens, Student.
I went to see you a few times five months ago for suicidal thoughts I was having. I have to admit you saved my life. Never had one suicide thought since the first time I saw you. I feel healthier. I’m happier. I’m even staying in school.

(NOTE: These 2 clients were being treated concurrently by their psychiatrists).

PUBLIC SPEAKING CONFIDENCE; By James Shaw,
U.S. Navy AO2 (AW/SW).
I was having a lot of trouble giving speeches in front of a crowd after a 16 hour shift of training troops for the Navy boot camp. And after trying Power Hypnosis and listening to the CD recordings from my sessions with Marc St.Camille I was no longer nervous.  All at once I was just relaxed to go face the world for that moment in time and give the best speech I had ever given in my life. I could not have done this without the help of Marc and Power Hypnosis.  If someone is having trouble with everyday life problems or just trying to improve with school, lectures or everyday stress I definitely say you need to try Marc out at least once. He will change your life. 

PUBLIC SPEAKING CONFIDENCE;
By Mimi Apelqvist, VP - Consumer Goods & Retail, Cook Assoc., Inc
I started seeing Marc because I was PARALYZED by the very notion of public speaking.  I had done public speaking in my career but always did horribly.  I would turn bright red, my hands would shake, my heart would beat so fast I could barely concentrate on anything else, my mouth would go dry, and ultimately I would make my audience squirm due to my extreme discomfort.  I would lose sleep as soon as I found out I had to speak and the agony would continue well beyond the speaking because I would be so embarrassed by my performance.  After seeing Marc a couple of times, I am thrilled to report that I had to make a formal presentation the other day and miraculously did remarkably well…not just okay, but in fact got many accolades after my presentation.  I thought working with Marc would make some difference but I never expected it to make such a notable difference.  This experience has provided me with a great base of confidence from which I can build.  Marc was exceptional in his approach,  very thorough and attentive to my core underlying issues, and committed to me getting beyond this limiting fear. The results are proof! The additional tools he provides add immeasurable value as well.  I categorically recommend him to get beyond any issues.

TEST PREPARATION & FOCUS; by Kris J. Krauss,
Trial Attorney with the Federal Defenders of San Diego.
As a practicing criminal defense attorney I use Marc St. Camille's self-hypnosis technique as a preparatory tool for every hearing and trial I have. I first sought Marc's assistance while studying for the California Bar Exam.
I was having trouble focusing and processing the incredibly large amount of information that I had to master in order to pass. Some of my colleagues who were practicing already sung Marc's praises stating that they believed that self-hypnosis was the reason they were able to complete the exam successfully. After talking to me about the problems I was having in accessing all the information I had in my head, Marc gave me a self-hypnosis routine to practice. And he kept in contact with me afterward to make sure I was practicing like I should and to see if it was succeeding. Needless to say I passed and continue to use Marc's technique today. It helps me stay focused and to remember key facts and case law so that I am always more prepared than the prosecutor and perform at the peak of my abilities. I highly recommend Marc St. Camille's Power Hypnosis for anyone who wants to achieve their full potential.

TEST PREPARATION; by J.Collins.
I had a few hypnosis sessions this summer with you on account of taking the Illinois Bar Exam. This morning, I found out that I passed the Bar Exam!

Thank you for all your help – I am sure the positive thinking and stress relief techniques you taught me surely helped me get in the right frame of mind to pass the exam. If I have any other problems/issues, I will be sure to contact you. Again, thanks for all your help.

FOCUS & TEST PREPARATION; By Ron Moran.
I’ve been in the IT Solution and Project Management business for over 25 Years. During the last six months I had been having trouble focusing and feeling positive about my life. It seemed that I had went from a very positive can do person to a very negative person over night. Some what skeptical about hypnosis I agreed to visit with Marc in early August to discuss these issues. After only my first visit it seemed like the light bulb had been turned back on. During this same time I was trying to pass my PMP exam. After talking with me about the problems I was having  accessing all the information I had in my head and the requirements for passing the exam Marc gave me a self-hypnosis routine to practice everyday. I was so impressed with the first visit I continued to see Marc and have turned my life around 360 degrees. I passed the PMP test on September 6, 2007 and my whole outlook on life has changed for the better. I highly recommend Marc St. Camille’s Power Hypnosis for anyone who wants to succeed and achieve their full potential in life. I would like to say thanks again to Marc for all his help and assistance.

TRADING PEAK PERFORMANCE; By David Charles.
I went to Marc St.Camille to help me overcome an excessive lack of self-confidence. Being an intraday trader without self-confidence is impossible. I had been able to only put on trades of a couple hundred shares and then rarely, so I was ready to try something new. Marc introduced me to a daily program incorporating meditation, self-hypnosis and hypnosis. I went home and meditated daily as Marc showed me and played the CD of our hypnosis session when I went to bed every night. I slept better that first night than I had in years and it has continued since. 

Within a week I was trading with less hesitation. I am now putting on more share size and making several trades a day. And I have been profitable for several weeks in a row.  I look forward to trading now, rather than dreading it. And I get more "in the flow” each day. I also like going bed as I no longer stay awake staring at the ceiling thinking self-deprecating thoughts. My wife said "you've changed! I like it!" I am going to continue in the manner that Marc has taught me for the rest of my life. By following his directions each day my life is better than I thought it could be. Thank You Marc.

SALES MOTIVATION; by Todd S.,
President of a technical staffing agency.
I own a business and looked to Marc St.Camille hoping to find a way to increase my motivation and sales production. I had achieved a level of success that I was comfortable with but, felt it was time to take it to the next level. In my first meeting with Marc he really took the time to understand my situation. As it turns out the biggest hurdle I was facing was my high level of stress and the fact that I wasn't doing anything deal with it. Marc taught me multiple techniques to deal with my stress as well as a hypnosis program that helped me to push my production higher than I ever thought possible. Even with a higher level of activity I am able to cope with the stress in a healthy way and I feel better than ever. Marc is a true professional and I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to make a positive change in their life.

MOTIVATION & SELF-CONFIDENCE; by Vince DiVito, Entrepreneur.
Marc, I just wanted to say that I truly enjoyed my session with you. I would be lying if I said I wasn't skeptical about trying hypnosis but then again what did I have to lose? An hour of my time? I felt that the time you spent to get to know my goals was just as important as the session itself. I found it very refreshing to hear your thoughts and opinions since you would have nothing to gain from me either starting a new career or not. The session itself was great, on top of getting me to think in a whole new way and just getting myself in gear. It was fun to relive past events in my life that still have an impact in my life, such as a gymnastics meet from a few years ago. I saw old friends and smiling faces all over again (not to mention my crazy high school hair!).

When I left your place I had such a feeling of peace in me. I actually lingered in the city and sat at the park for an hour and just people watched. That following week so many ideas came to me. 2 weeks later I’m still brain storming ideas and putting together a strong formula for lasting success. I was glad I got the CD recording of my session. At night sometimes I'll lay down and put on a pair of headphones and just sit in total darkness and listen to it all over again. It’s like a refresher, reminding you why you were there that day, why you’re taking the steps that you’re taking. So many times in life we get detoured and it sometimes takes a while to remember what your original plan was. With the CD it brings you back to that moment like it just happened and you remind yourself of what your ultimate goal is. Without a goal there’s nothing, you’re wasting your time. So for that and your time spent talking with me I thank you. It was great meeting you and great to know that you’re here in Chicago instead of New York. I have no hesitations referring any of my friends and family to you. Thanks again.

MOTIVATION & OVERCOMING PROCRASTINATION;
Dwight Walker, Jr. Author.
Marc's sessions have set me on a blazing trail to accomplish my goals!  One of my biggest problems was procrastination.  Now my biggest problem is finding something else to do!  The light switch has been turned on and I'm living a much brighter life!  We talked about me publishing my book.  I finished and sent it to the printers on 7/25/07!  I also haven't been late on my bills.  Things are picking up!  I want to thank you for your help!

PEAK PERFORMANCE & SELF-CONFIDENCE;
by Cory Hance, Professional Musician.
The hypnosis session you took me through and mental exercises you taught me have helped my confidence onstage immensely. I just had a great show in Milwaukee. I could feel the positive energy radiate from myself through my guitar and microphone into the audience. I don't think I could have had a performance like this happen without the pre-show exercise you taught me. Thanks for helping me "broadcast" better to the audience.

VARIOUS ISSUES
By Dr. Ajana Miki, Naturopathic Physician & Acupuncturist.
As an acupuncturist and naturopathic physician, I do quite a bit of work with people with addictions.  One evening I did a search for hypnotherapist in Chicago and found Marc's Power Hypnosis website.  I left a message with the intention of meeting him on behalf of my patients.  When he returned my call, I gave him a list of issues that I was personally interested in addressing as a means of assessing his areas of comfort as a hypnotherapist.  He was undaunted.  I decided to have a session myself.          

I went into the session with several issues to work on.  Marc asked several questions and very insightfully uncovered the central theme. The hypnosis session itself was very relaxing.  I remained skeptical that anything could have happened until I left the office.  The session had been around the inability/ability to experience pleasure.  I don't know whether I fell asleep or was in a deep state of meditation, but I did not remember anything that was said.  I left the office and half an hour later, noticed that I was walking very slowly and smiling.  Two things that are unusual for me.  I was not rushing around. I was thoroughly enjoying the sunshine and the breeze on my skin and the leaves on the trees and even the movement of my body as I walked.  On top of that, I felt peaceful and very happy.  I realized that I had been depressed for months without having noticed.  Months later, I find many moments when I slow down and deeply experience the pleasure in each moment, of eating, walking, loving others...

I have experienced three sessions to date.  All have made a noticeable difference in releasing fear and helping me to feel more alive.  I find Marc St. Camille to be a gifted healer.  I have referred several patients, each one has called to tell me how pleased they were with their sessions.           

Thank you Marc, for your integrity and enthusiasm.  I will continue to recommend you to my patients.

EMPOWERMENT; by Linda Howe, Director, Center for Akashic Studies.
The work that I experienced with Marc St. Camille has been nothing short of extra-ordinary.  He combines sophisticated skills and exquisite sensitivity to support the client in producing powerful results.  In any visit with him, I have felt understood and appreciated and left empowered to take the next step in my journey.

DATING CONFIDENCE & OVER-ALL CONFIDENCE;
By Dain Carrolson.
Marc, since initiating hypnosis with Power Hypnosis to increase my self-confidence, and particularly my confidence in interacting with women, I’ve experienced very distinct, positive changes in my life and personality. 

Prior to working with you I would consistently find myself too intimidated to approach a person I wanted to meet, and floundering and nervous on those occasions when I did find the courage to initiate contact. 

After working on overcoming my general lack of self confidence what helped me further was that we focused on me as a whole person. Venturing into treating more specific areas including bad habits like nail biting, the fear of speaking publicly, lack of assertiveness at work, and of course confidence in engaging women.  I’m convinced that it is this whole-person approach that has facilitated the deep and lasting changes I was seeking.

Since our work together, my interactions with the opposite sex have taken on a very different character!  I find myself fully relaxed, yet just exploding with confidence.    I no longer let the situation get to me.  It no longer matters where the conversation might go or how (or that) it might go off course.  My more relaxed state allows me to enjoy the interaction for what it is and in the moment it happens and not to encumber it with anxiety.  And, as you predicted, women have even begun approaching me at times, without my having to make any effort whatsoever!  It’s not an easy feeling to describe, but if I had to I’d use an analogy: I’d say it feels like I’m riding a strong, surging horse up a steep hill, like I am simply unstoppable and like I have a perfect, clear-headed grasp of the situation.  It feels like being a different person.  Something like: "Wow, where's my anxiety right now?”  I look for it to be there, I expect it to be there, and it's not!

Additional evidence of the effects of our work would be that I haven’t bitten my nails at all since our last meeting 2 months ago, and that my habit of biting my lip has decreased at least 90%!   At work I’m cool and deliberate, no matter to whom I’m speaking.  I no longer feel intimidated, and I say what I want to say knowing that I’ll be understood.  And if I’m not at first, I’m not flustered; I simply reassess the conversation and readdress the person I want to communicate with.

I can’t tell you how happy I feel to be able to go through life without my former concerns!    I’m grateful to you for helping me make these changes.  And I’m grateful to myself for taking action and having the guts, or even, the defiance! (of a general public doubtfulness of alternative therapies or self-help generally).  Thank you! _______________________________________________________________________________

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION (ED) & SEXUAL PERFORMANCE ANXIETY;
By Steve Jones.
After our 4 sessions and a few weeks later I'm doing great. My confidence with regard to my performance is higher than it's been in a long time. I've been with two new women in the past weeks and everything went great. The first lady I was a little nervous at first but simply did the self hypnosis and from there I had no problems. The second lady I was with I had no performance problems at all and I was noticeably calmer even before I did the self hypnosis. I see it only getting better from here. I weaned myself off the Viagra like we discussed and I'm still sticking to the plan. When I'm by myself (solo) there has been progress too. I'd say I'm close to 100 percent.

I continue to meditate every morning and some evenings as you taught me to keep stress at bay. Stress is almost a non factor in my life now. I don't even take the anxiety meds my doctor gave me anymore. I plan to continue meditation for probably the rest of my life. Besides the obvious benefits I really enjoy doing it. Thank you for introducing it to me.

I honestly can't thank you enough for your help. If two months ago I asked myself where my ability to perform would be, I would have never guessed that it'd be in a good place. How far I've progressed is astounding to me. I can't believe how much better I'm doing. I'm a huge proponent of hypnotherapy now.

ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE; by Quenton Lindstrom.
The mental techniques I learned working with Marc helped me to not only improve my athletic performance but also my personal life.  I recommend his services for anyone looking to improve their overall quality of life.  As an athlete who competes at a high level I have been exposed to hundreds of techniques to help me 'get in the zone' - none of which were anywhere as effective as one hour with Power Hypnosis."  

ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE & OVERCOMING FEAR; By Diane Taylor.
I am a lawyer by trade but an equestrian at heart.  Some time ago, I took a bad fall in the show ring.  I was unable to ride while my body physically healed.  I worked hard to regain my strength and climb back in the saddle.  When I was able to do so, I realized that my physical strength was only part of the issue.   My mind continuously replayed the fall in my head.  I was too frightened to jump again.  I worked hard, on my own, for many months but was unable to overcome my fear.  Then, I began working with Marc St.Camille.  Over the course of 7 sessions with Marc, I learned to relax and my mind became my ally in my efforts to succeed again at my sport, as opposed to my enemy.  Just recently, I went back into the show ring and jumped successfully.   I could not have done it without Marc.  I am immensely grateful.

STRESS RELIEF WORKSHOP; by David Cobb, Partner, Deloitte.
Whilst on a conference in Chicago organized by my firm, Deloitte & Touche I attended a workshop session entitled "Stress-Relief through Hypnosis: How to stay healthy on the road" conducted by Marc St.Camille.   Marc took us through a 20 minute meditation session and a 20 minute hypnosis session.  The session overall was extremely effective in making me feeling relaxed and afterwards I was left feeling more alert, aware and refreshed. During the one hour we had with Marc he was able to teach us the basic practices to continue a program of meditation and/or self hypnosis by ourselves and I have continued to do so.  The benefits I experienced from the one hour session are successfully reproduced and I find myself generally more alert and productive, but also more relaxed and less stressed as a result.

MEDITATION & STRESS MANAGEMENT WORKSHOP;
by Carolyn Pomykala.
Marc demystified meditation to me,  gave practical explanations of both how and why, without any incense or chanting.  The time flew by, I walked out with serene eyes  & refreshed mind.  Meditation seems to be a healthy & happy way to deal with the world.

STRESS MANAGEMENT WORKSHOP; by Phyllis Mategrano.
Thank you Marc. The workshop was great. I melted right into it. Fabulous delivery of information and my sisters concur. They are the toughest critics you’ll ever have.

FOCUS, CLARITY & RELATIONSHIP ISSUES; By Bob Bartkowski.
I first came to Marc about 3 or 4 months ago to find out why I was "holding myself back" in many areas of my life, primarily in relationships. But I also knew that it was more than that, i.e., this problem was not just limited to one area but was manifesting itself in all aspects of my life. I didn't know how to handle it but I knew I needed to do something.  I had always been intrigued by the power of the subconscious mind, as well as its effect on one's behavior so I looked into hypnosis and found Marc's website. Marc's calm and inviting demeanor instantly put me at ease, as I still had some doubt and apprehension as to whether this modality would be effective.  All I can say is that visiting Marc was a truly wise choice on my part indeed!  His effectiveness in the area of hypnotherapy as well as guiding someone through the steps of learning how to meditate is without question. 

Simply put, I have gained focus and clarity not only in my relationships but in other areas of my life as well. I realize now that I deserve nothing but good things and will not settle for anything less again. I think the gift of clarity of purpose is the highest gift you can bestow on someone.  If that be the case, I thank you Marc for giving that gift to me!  Marc St. Camille has my highest recommendation and my sincere respect and gratitude.

FEAR OF FLYING; by Peter Sarna, Senior Manager Global Development.
I was always afraid of flying. The problem was that my new job required me to fly quite often. I noticed that every time I flew my fear was getting worse and worse. I decided to do something about it and then one of my friends told my about hypnosis and that this is how I could get over the fear of flying. First, I didn't believe it as I am one of those people who are always skeptical of new things, but then I did a research online and read a few stories that proved my friend's point. This is how I crossed my paths with Mr. Marc St. Camille. He helped me big time. After only two sessions I went on my first flight from Chicago to New York and my fear was gone. I have taken numerous flights since then and I have enjoyed (!) every single one of them. Big thanks to you Marc! _______________________________________________________________________________

FEAR OF INSECTS; by Gina Saka, Licensed Massage Therapist.
I have had an odd fear of certain insects since my childhood and within 2 sessions I am a totally different person!! I actually had some doubts at first because some of my fears were so old and deep. Because of Marc's help I was able to get to the very root of my fears. I think when you are able to help someone do that it is a true gift. Marc St.Camille gives you the tools you need to reclaim your freedom and master your fears in a very safe, professional and effective way. And it's fast, remarkably fast! I have and still highly recommend him to anyone.

FEAR OF HEIGHTS; By Susan Lasky.
After our 3rd session I rode the elevator to the observatory on top of the John Hancock Building. I viewed the city and Lake Michigan from way up there.  And just like you instructed me, I focused on one item at a time, grounded my legs and felt confidence within myself.  Well, Marc it was fabulous!  There was absolutely no fear or apprehension mentally or physically and most importantly no fear of heights or riding in the elevator.

Thank you for giving me the added insight to call upon my inner being by meditating.  I meditate more often now.  I also, listen to my hypnosis session CD's whatever chance I get.  I carry all three CDs in my briefcase and also listen to them here at the office.

I can not thank you enough for helping me to develop my inner self and to take life on as a challenge instead of taking life as an obstacle. You have truly made my life more meaningful. The new me will be flying on planes without any fear or apprehension.  Wow, imagine that I now look at everything as a challenge not an obstacle. Thanks to you I can now enjoy life to its fullest and not hesitate to take on new challenges.

FEAR OF DRIVING; by Dr. Sarah Allen, Psychologist.
I contacted Marc after a series of car accidents left me fearful of driving to places I didn’t know. I am a psychologist and through using psychology-based behavioral methods had become comfortable driving locally. However, the car accidents had not been my fault, which reinforced feelings of driving safely being out of my control. I had to drive locally for my work and children but I felt restricted because I had never been able to drive myself from the suburbs into Chicago and always had to rely on trains or family and friends to get me places downtown. After carefully listening to my driving concerns, Marc recorded a CD of our hypnosis session to listen to daily and I drove myself to my follow-up appointment a couple of weeks later! I’ve been driving in to Chicago since. I think hypnosis is a great adjunct to traditional psychotherapy for issues such as depression, anxiety and panic attacks.

NAIL BITING; By Mike Trumbold.
I was a nail biter for 50 years when I learned of Marc St. Camille's skills in hypnosis.   After two sessions with Power Hypnosis I have completely stopped biting my nails.   I can't begin to say what this has done for my self esteem, to say nothing of not having to hide my hands any more.   Marc's methods are up front, innovative and he made me instantly calm at our first meeting.   He took considerable time in walking me through what situations caused me to bite my nails and different reasons why these situations cause this response in me.   I never felt rushed or hurried.  His actual hypnosis was very easy on my part.  At times I know I was completely asleep and only realized later that I was actually responding to Marc on a totally subconscious level.   The entire experience was rewarding.   I recommend Marc St. Camille and his Power Hypnosis highly!

TRICHOTILLOMANIA (HAIR PULLING); by April Adams, 27 years old.
For 22 years, doctors, therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists told me that hair pulling (trichotillomania) had no cure and that I would have to fight the urges to pull every day of my life.  Anyone who suffers from "trich" knows the pain, insecurities, humiliation, discouragement, and shame that come with this disorder.  I never went more than 2 days without pulling until I found Marc St.Camille.   He must have been God-sent because the minute I saw him I knew I was in the presence of a very special soul.  Marc is gentle and kind.  This man genuinely cares about his clients and helping people and it shows in every way.    He literally trained my mind to let go of this “bad habit” and become relaxed and comfortable with myself. My urges stopped after the first hypnosis.  I listened to the C.D. recordings of our sessions faithfully. And I meditate just as he taught me, twice a day.  After the 3^rd session I no longer even think about it. It has been weeks since I have even felt ONE urge to pull my hair and I am certain that I can now go the rest of my life pull-free.  I truly feel blessed to have worked with Marc and am so excited to FINALLY begin to live my life to the fullest.   Marc, I hope you know what a difference you are making in people’s lives and what you have done for my life!   Thank you for being you!

SOCIAL & SEXUAL ANXIETY; by David Goodman.
My life has been better than I could've ever Imagined since I met Marc St.Camille. I had grown up sexually repressed with the belief that sex or thoughts of sex were wrong or improper.  It had been affecting my life since I could remember.  When I would date a girl or want to date a girl, there were so many things I couldn't physically do and couldn't even bring myself to say out loud.  I felt like it was wrong to want to touch a girl or be touched (let alone go further). And there was certainly a point In a relationship that I could NEVER get to.  Once I started getting closer and closer to a girl, I just had to end It.  Also, when I first met Marc, he made me realize I was unable to even SAY the word "sex" or any word relating to sex.  I was a total mess and self-destructing quickly.

I had tried to solve my issues for about six years before I met Marc.  I went to speak to multiple psychiatrists and therapists, but figuring out what and why I was having these issues only intensified the problems.  They became unbearable.  I was at a breaking point and searching and searching for help, and stumbled onto the Power Hypnosis Chicago website. I had NO Idea that it would be the end of my problem and the cure to my misery!
   
We first talked a bit about what I was thinking and going through.  He asked thoughtful questions and assured me I was not the only one in the world with this problem, which was the first time ANYONE had told me that.  It meant the world.  He took his time to understand what I'd been through and where I was.  Took careful notes and made up a plan to help me.

After one hypnosis session, I felt better when I saw my girlfriend.  I was so used to having these horrible barriers for so long, when they weren't there all of a sudden I felt like a new person.  I had expected to fight these awful feelings, but all of a sudden they weren't coming up. I knew right then he was going to cure me!  I had NEVER IN MY LIFE felt ANY progress or difference until after my first session with Power Hypnosis. I’ll never forget it.  I know it sounds weird, but the first moments it was such a huge and drastic change in my life; I knew I would need one more session to really put me over the mountain.    

Marc St.Camille has changed my life in a way that I could never repay him.  I know it’s drastic, but the things I felt before had me wondering if it was worth it to live at all.  I felt trapped in a hole my entire life and Marc finally saved me.  And it was easy.  All I did was listen and relax.  I'm experiencing loving a person for the first time In my life, and because of that it's like I'm finally alive.  I can only thank Power Hypnosis Chicago.

If you have anything in your life that burdens you, weighs on your mind, anything in your personality that bothers you, or anything that you've ever wished felt better, Power Hypnosis Chicago can help you.  I would guarantee it to anyone.  It's the greatest treatment for anything in the world. Thank you so much, Marc - I owe you everything and I will never forget what you did.

SEXUALLY COMPULSIVE BEHAVIOR & ALCOHOL DEPENDENCY;
by Barry Stevenson.
I was having many problems with Sexual Addictive Behavior and Alcohol Dependence.  My many urges and dependencies were complicating and ruining my life.  I felt like I was living in a cloud, dazed and confused.  And I had always thought I could not say NO to anything!  With five sessions over a few short weeks with Marc I noticed a big difference.  My impressions of hypnosis are very therapeutic.  Marc St.Camille is very professional and is a person who really wants to help others to reach their full potential.  My urges and desires are now under control! Three months later I am a better husband and athlete and more focused in every day life!

CHILDBIRTH - HYPNOBIRTHING; By Selena Martinez.
Based on my belief in the power of the mind, I sought the help of Marc St. Camille to help me prepare for the birth of my first child, through hypnosis.  I had no idea what to expect as far as the hypnosis process, and when I arrived, I felt a little nervous and a bit guarded.  But this feeling soon left, as I sat down and spoke with Marc.  Marc was very thorough in his questioning.  He wanted to be sure he had all the necessary information and any important details to combine with what he had already learned about me from our phone conversation.  We also spoke about meditation, and then focused for a few minutes on breathing.  Now fully relaxed, we began the session, and on the spot, Marc spoke words that were tailored just for me.  I was very happy with how the session went. 

Marc made sure to find out that I best received information visually.  So needless to say, my session was filled with guided imagery that would later help my soon-to-be-born daughter and me through 10 hours of active labor.   

When that day came, it was far from painless.  The fetal monitor read out the intensity of my contractions in two ways, graphically and numerically.  We were able to see the intensity in high peaks and numbers that reached 150 and above.  I listened to the CD of my session with Marc to help in my self-hypnosis while I was in labor.  My husband was baffled at the fact that, at times, I showed no indication of pain, as the monitor displayed high peaks and numbers, indicating intense contractions, sometimes one on top of another.  I experienced many of these contractions only as a mild sensation.   

I feel that the hypnosis and mental preparations helped me to make it through labor and the delivery of my child, drug-free, allowing my child and me to be fully present, coherent, and safe.   Others who were present, commented on what they saw.  After delivering my baby girl, my midwife told me that she had never seen a woman as composed as I was.  One of the nurses, while expressing to my midwife how hectic it was going that day, was told to take a break in Room 207 (my room), because it was peaceful in there. 

I had set out a goal, which was to birth naturally, no drugs, no interventions, if possible, so as to make the first moments of my daughters life outside the womb safe, clear, real.  I began developing my plan early on in my pregnancy by attending natural childbirth classes which informed and prepared me for what was to come.  I practiced meditation for relaxation and focus.  But I knew none of this would lessen the pain - only help me to deal with it.  So finally, I came to Marc to solidify my preparation and to ensure the experience that I had hoped for.  What I took from him, not only added strength to what I had already done to prepare, but at times removed me from pain altogether. Giving birth to my daughter was the most important experience of my life, and physically, the most difficult.  Marc St. Camille shared largely in my preparation for this day, and in creating the peaceful atmosphere in which my daughter came into this world.  I have much respect for him, and highly recommend him, for it is obvious to me that he has a true gift to help others.

QUIT USING MARIJUANA; by Wayne W.
My name is Wayne. I am 52 years old. I was searching for any way to stop my 30 year dependency on marijuana. I smoked daily for many years. Even though I have been able to work at a relatively high level, smoking pot was having a serious effect on my personal relationships and zest for life. While searching the internet for solutions, I came across Power Hypnosis and Marc St. Camille. Although somewhat skeptical about the effectiveness of hypnosis, my wife suggested I see Marc. I lost my desire to smoke pot after our first session. I listened to the CD Marc made of our session a couple of times and concentrated on my goal of abstention. We had a follow-up session, and I can gladly report continuing success. My wife is curious about why If this process can be this easy and productive, why the line to Marc St. Camille's door is not wrapped around the corner. Give him a try. You have a tremendous amount to lose.

QUIT USING MARIJUANA; by Irina Neeva.
I saw you in 4.2006 for treatment to stop smoking marijuana.  I listened to the CD you made for me during my session every time I thought about wanting to use. It took all of 30 days for me to be off this bad habit. My boyfriend smoked also and after he saw that I was strong enough to do this he also stopped and I am quite happy to say that it has been over a year and we are both over it. I wanted to give credit where credit is due and tell you how much I appreciate the service you provided me. It has changed me in the most positive way and made me and my husband better people, as well as great parents for our son.

SMOKING CESSATION; By Jesse Dawes.
Let me start with saying I was a heavily addicted three or more pack a day smoker.  I started smoking later in life but when I started I jumped right in with both feet and had been smoking for over 10 years.  I tried the patch and zyban to help kick the smoking addiction but with no success.  I also had tried hypnosis with another therapist with no success.  So needless to say I was somewhat skeptical when going to Marc.

My previous hypnosis experience consisted of the other therapist asking a few questions, playing me a tape, few suggestions given to me, in total lasting no more than 15-20 minutes.  I was given a cassette and that was about it.  I was given a follow up session that consisted of the same identical steps, suggestions, etc., but no additional cassette since the session was the same as the first.

Wow. Marc was so different from my previous experience!  Marc is a true professional hypnotherapist.  One of the things that I believe that sets him apart from others is the fact that he takes the time to perform a comprehensive evaluation, an in depth interview, and he listens!  With my addiction it did take 5 sessions before I cut down all the way to zero and remained a non-smoker but with each session there was major progress and I was finally able to kick the habit.  I was amazed how Marc seemed to be able to customize each session depending on our discussions at the start of each session.

During the process of ending this addiction I had numerous other issues, stresses and triggers to my addiction: work/professional problems, personal/home-life issues, and even a death in the family.  Marc not only helped me uncover the triggers but also totally understood my issues with stress.  Again on-the-fly Marc would somehow pull out of his magic hat a customized session to address my issues.  I always left each session not only better able to control my smoking but better able to handle stress and an overall increasing feeling of general well being.

In addition Marc gave me numerous tools, recommendations, and observations addressing my environment, physical life and personality traits.  Marc makes this all easy as he has a way of making you feel comfortable, relaxed, and at ease.  It is also very refreshing to see he is technologically up to date providing the option of supplying each custom session on a CD.  It was great to load it to my MP3 player and take it with me anywhere!

I believe if you are open and honest with Marc there isn’t anything he couldn’t or wouldn’t be able to help a person with.  Again a true Professional!   Thanks, very much Marc!

SMOKING CESSATION & CONTROL ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION;
by Michele A. Grassi.
Dear Marc, I wanted to take this time to thank you for the remarkable change you have made in my life. I am living proof that your hypnosis really works.  At the time I came to you I was drinking almost every night and smoking close to a pack of cigarettes a day, if not more.

After completing 2 sessions with you, I must admit I seemed to still be having a difficult time with both indulgences. Then suddenly within maybe 1 month’s time, I woke up one day and lost all desire to drink or smoke.  It’s like a miracle. If you remember I wanted to still be able to have an occasional cocktail and I do. I thought after having one or two that I would want my usual follow up of 3, 4 or 5 but the one or two are enough and I am able to not want anymore.  Same goes with a cigarette.  I do have one or two on occasion but then I stop. Just sort of loose my taste after. 

Thank you Marc; I can live healthy and happy once again. I must also tell you I look and feel so much better already, I can breathe better and no hangovers - yeah!!! Thank you for the wonderful transformation of me.

SMOKING CESSATION; by Ryan Cleaver.
Truly unreal! I came in with a skeptical attitude, and after two sessions came out smoke free! It has been quite a while now, and I feel incredible, running almost every day.  After the first session, I walked out with a smile on my face, and a feeling like a huge weight just got lifted off my back.  I have tried gum, patches & pills with no success.  I feel great!  This is one of the smartest decisions I have ever made.  Thank you Marc!
