Dear Wendy, I was at first skeptical about the use of hypnosis to help me
with test worry for the LSAT. After one session with you I was completely floored.
My ability to focus and remain calm was unlocked and I became
able to reach more of my own potential.
One of the things you helped me focus on was accomplishing my goals. On test
day I was very anxious. I knew this would spell disaster. So I made it one
of my goals to be calm on test day. Wouldn’t you know it, my hands stopped
shaking and my heart stopped pounding.

The Reiki session I experienced the day before my test was amazing. It really
calmed me down a lot and put me in a better frame of mind.

Thank you so much for your help. It is worth more than I paid for.

This is addressed to anyone considering training with Wendy Packer:

I received my Consulting Hypnosis Certification through Wendy and it was one
of the best experiences I ever had. Wendy easily incorporates her vast knowledge
of hypnosis with her natural teaching ability. This, combined with her fun
loving approach and patience, creates an environment of learning that is unsurpassed.Since
completing my hypnosis training with Wendy, I have attended various other trainings
with many fantastic people from across the country and overseas. While all
of these people were excellent teachers and very knowledgeable, Wendy in my
opinion, stands out among them. So much so that I look forward to taking further
classes from her in the near future.

Yet another factor to consider is the fact that Wendy, among many other qualifications,
is the President of the Westchester, NY chapter of the NGH. As a result, she
maintains an active and up to date flow of information and inspiration on a
daily basis. Having this support after you complete your training is invaluable.
As a Professional, Wendy is the most generous and sincerely helpful person
I know of in any field. As a student of hers, rest assured that she will share
any and all information that may help you in your pursuit.

Since becoming a Certified Instructor with the NGH myself and having been
professionally linked with Wendy for a number of years now, I feel uniquely
qualified to recommend her as the best all-around trainer you can employ.

I had the pleasure of being a student of Wendy for my hypnosis certification.
She made the training a pleasure with her enthusiasm and insights into the
profession. The result is that she and I have embarked on a new venture to
leverage the Internet to further the profession and fill a niche so far not
addressed, that of caring for the care giver, which was the subject of her
recent presentation at the National Guild of Hypnotists conference last month.
I highly recommend anyone interested in hypnosis as a profession or as a tool
for personal growth seek out Wendy as a mentor or hypnotist.

Wendy,

I would be remiss if I didn’t take a moment to thank you for all your invaluable
help in my battle against smoking. What is truly amazing to me is that today
Icelebrated my ONE MONTH ANNIVERSARY OF QUITTING! As I mentioned at my first
visit with you, I havesmoked virtually 2 packs a day for THE LAST 36 YEARS!
I think that I also mentioned that I had “quit” about10 times prior.
To be blunt, as a bit of a cynic, I figured that your betting on me to successfully
quitsmoking this time was virtually a sucker’s bet.Perhaps that is why I am
so happy and chagrined to be celebrating this anniversary. Clearly, using the
prescription drug “Chantix” this time helped me withsome of my physical
craving, but it did nothing forall the emotional and habitual triggers that
I hadwhich caused me to smoke so often throughout each day. And not only that,
I enjoyed smoking, and could only “see” myself as a smoker.

This is where I think that the hypnosis youprovided was so useful to me. You
were kind enough totake a great deal of time to uncover and understandwhat
my triggers were before we even started, and youwere incredibly helpful in
getting me through themwithout me climbing the walls! (My wife even admittedthat
I’ve been fairly PLEASANT for the last month!) If that is not amazing – nothing
is!I am reminded of how right from the beginning youexplained to me that I
had to WANT to quit, and thatyou couldn’t do it FOR ME, but you were great
aboutreminding me of my own important life goals, whichcouldn’t include cigarettes!
What I will always be appreciative of is the way that you were able to show
me a new reality where I could visualize myself as a happy nonsmoker – no small
feat for sure. YOU ACTUALLY MADE ME BELIEVE THAT IT MIGHT REALLY BE POSSIBLE
THIS TIME!

Lastly, I have to admit that I was pretty agnostic when we started, having
been through hypnosis for smoking before, and having it last only three days.Also,
I never forget that for now I only have to quitfor “one day at a time.” But,
with a little luck and your kind assistance, I’m beginning to believe that
these cigarette-free daysmay just last for a long, long time!Now, wouldn’t
that be amazing!

With deep appreciation, and a bit of bewilderment,”

–Frederick Feldbauer, New Rochelle, NY

“Thank you Wendy for your helping both myself and my husband. Your sessions
with him and the CD you provided helps him deal with his chronic discomfort.
I don’t even mind that he goes to sleep with you (your CD) on a regular basis.

Nurse Wendy has an amazing sensitivity to people’s personal/medical needs.
Her soothing voice and skills go hand in hand with an approach to hypnosis
that was successful in helping me fall asleep. As far as I’m concerned, meeting
with you and using your CD to fall asleep has changed my life. It’s truly amazing,
it actually works!!

We will forever be grateful to Wendy for her kindness and expertise. We look
forward to additional hypnosis sessions and the use of her individual CD recordings.”

Sincerely,

–Dr. Harvey Seigerman and Mrs. Charlotte Seigerman, White Plains, NY

“Wendy,

You are amazing! I have to admit that I was skeptical about hypnosis. My husband
is a physician, so it was difficult for me to “buy into” this type
of alternative treatment. My insomnia was severe, and no medications, prescribed
or over-the-counter, worked. I even read several books on the topic of sleep,
as well as went to see psychiatrists and psychologists. However, by the end
of our first meeting, I had an excellent feeling about on my own, following
your instructions. And by our fourth and final session, I would have to say
that my sleep habits nearly resembled that of an “average” person.
It has been over a month since our last meeting, and I am now a confident sleeper.
I still utilize the CD’s you customized for me, although not as frequently
as when I started our sessions. What amazes me is what you did for me in four
sessions, medications and doctors couldn’t do for me in months. I can’t
thank you enough. I recommend you to everyone who expresses to me an issue
they are having that I think you could help them with.

Best,

—Nicole S., Tarrytown, NY”

“Hi Wendy,

Max had a terrific session by all accounts! He’s been very energized and bouncy
since. He wanted me to be sure to tell you that he tried cheese today! Jarlsberg,
no less — Brian offered him some he was eating and Max said sure. He swallowed
it without gagging (truly a first in a couple of years), and decided he didn’t
like it. But he’s open to more kid-friendly cheeses in the future. He was so
happy after the cheese, repeating that “that CD really works”! We
pointed out that, that was great!”

“Hi Wendy!!

I have been meaning to write & call you for so long!! So many great things
have happened. I’ve been traveling alot with my husband for his business & I
have felt safe and comfortable where ever we were….even though I’d always
freak out before!! I used the relaxation techniques you taught me and when
I had auditions recently with Law & Order:SVU, I applied them beforehand….and
I got a Part!!!!!!!! I know I couldn’t have gotten the part without your help!!

Your helping me to relax, be positive, believe in myself & be confident
has absolutely changed my life and I am so grateful to you & to God for
bringing you to me!! I also even took new headshots & I wasn’t nervous
as always before. I remembered to do my relaxation techniques and I did a great
job….I wasn’t kicked out of the photog’s studios in tears for the first time!!
And best of all the pictures came out so great and I believe they’ll just help
me get more parts!!

Thank you so much Wendy!! I saw my sister for the first time in months yesterday
and she told me she went to see you, so I’m really grateful to you for also
helping my sister. I hope you’re having a great summer and that you & Charlie & your
family are all doing well.”

—- Thanks Again! Best, Allison

“I must say you are an Angel sent from God. Saturday, after my session
with you I walked and walked and not once did I look away from the people around
me…For the first time I asked my sister if growing up in the same household
had the same impact on her. A coworker told me today, “There is a glow
to you”. I’m looking forward to our next session.”

“So many good things have begun to flow in my life since I began having
sessions with you. Tremendous healing has been set in motion with regard to
childhood issues, sexual abuse and dealing with the loss of my mother and child
along with health and weight concerns. How ironic that I came to you to lose
weight (physically) not only have I done that, but have shed a considerable
amount of emotional weight as well!! You are a terrific hypnotist who is empathetic,
spiritually attuned, bright, insightful and amazingly encouraging. It is my
pleasure to have met you.”

“Hello Wendy,

The sleep CD has been working great. I’ve been sleeping better and going right
back to sleep when I’ve gotten up to use the restroom. Thanks.”

—- Joe McG, Bronx, NY

“I used to fear going to school because I thought I would get sick there.
Wendy’s CD helped me to relax whenever I feared getting sick. She taught me
to think about all the upsides in life. Now I have nothing to fear.”

—- Stefan Lance, age 11, Greenwich Village, NYC

“I contacted Wendy Packer because of my enormous fear of anesthesia and
since I was scheduled for upcoming surgery I knew I had a problem. I was ambivalent
because I wasn’t sure hypnosis would work, but after speaking with Wendy I
decided I’d take a chance. Wendy’s session and CD enabled me to appreciate
and welcome the anesthesia instead of fearing it . Her soothing voice, warmth
and kindness are additional bonuses. Wendy has also been helpful to my young
son Stefan. Since listening to his personalized CD he looks forward to bedtime.
His fears have been replaced with confidence and security. Stefan and or I
would be pleased to speak with anyone who is considering seeing Wendy for a
session or purchasing a CD.”

“Dear Nurse Wendy,

After listening to your tape for 5 weeks I must write to tell you that all
the miseries associated with IBS have gone. I should have written to you 3
months ago, but I thought I would wait and see if the symptoms returned. Keep
up the good work.”

—- P. Younger, London, UK

“Dear Wendy,

Many thanks for helping me over come the long bout I have had with IBS (Irritable
Bowel Syndrome). Since my colon cancer surgery in 1991, I have been miserable
with constant bouts of bowel problems. Now, with my one session with you and
listening to your CD, these problems have disappeared. It is now over 2 months
since that session, and I have not had a single incident in all that time.
You can’t imagine what this has done to my morale! My deepest appreciation
for this miracle and hope you have many years of helping others.”

—- Beatrice Kalikow, FL and MA

“Wendy,

Yes, it is us!! We have NOT fallen off the face of the earth, but we are thinner!!
Yes, yes, …. Bob has lost 21 pounds & I have lost 8 pounds. wowowowowowowowowow….
we are excited about the changes. We have found that changing our eating habits
has not been a struggle & we feel very good. I have not eaten a piece of
chocolate since listening to the session. Thank you thank you for your help!!
It is also “very fun” to hear your voice on CD.”

—- Kitty and Bob H., Raleigh, North Carolina

“Wendy,

I cannot believe I am writing this even as I type….. I just got back from
a round trip flight to Florida! I flew! I actually walked onto the plane!!
As you know, my prior attempts to fly were beyond disastrous. I actually had
to leave a flight before take off & drive 24 hrs to get home because of
the terror I felt. Yet, after my sessions with you, I did fly, I was comfortable
and at ease. What you have done for me Wendy is nothing short of a miracle.
I am so happy ..no words can express my joy an gratitude. Thank you Wendy!
With all my heart, I thank you so much!”

—- Allison Kelly, New York

“For anyone facing elective surgery, I would highly recommend consulting
Wendy Packer and using hypnosis to prepare for surgery. Over the past 3 years
I have had 2 elective surgeries. I have always had a problem tolerating anesthesia.
In preparation for my 1st procedure, I contacted Wendy and she prepared a hypnosis
tape for me to reduce my anxiety about the surgery and to minimize my negative
reaction to the anesthesia. I listened to the tape every night before I went
to sleep for three weeks before the surgery. Although I was anxious that I
would experience much pain after the surgery, I was amazed that I had no negative
reactions to the anesthesia and I was able to go home that same day with no
post operative pain at all.

Eighteen months later I was scheduled for knee surgery, this surgery was less
extensive than the 1st. and I didn’t think about using hypnosis. This second
experience made a believer out of me. I experienced a great deal of post -op
pain and the anesthesia left me feeling as thought I had been hit by a truck.
After comparing these two episodes, there is no doubt in my mind that should
I need additional surgery, I would call Wendy as soon as the surgical date
was set.
Wendy Packer is the consummate professional. She prepares the tape or CD for
each client, structuring the hypnotic suggestions which deal with specific
issues the client is facing. I have recommended Wendy to a number of friends
and clients and I am available to speak with anyone who would like additional
information about my success using hypnosis before surgery.”

“I had been a blusher, notice the word had, for as long as I can remember.
It was a very embarrassing and needless to say, annoying problem. This problem
held me back from enjoying everyday interaction with others. My anticipation
of blushing was just as strong as the blush itself. I mentioned this concern
to a dear friend who uses Wendy on a regular basis so I made an appointment.
I met with her 2 times, listened to her CD which she made specifically for
me and the rest is history. I AM A NON BLUSHER. If I only knew how effective
hypnosis is I would have used it sooner, better late than never.”

—- Joann M., Mamaroneck, NY

“I’m 20 yrs. old and for years I’ve been terrified of bugs. When I saw
a bug, whether it be an ant, bee, moth, roach, or spider, my heart would race
and breathing became more and more difficult. If a bug was is my room, I’d
be restless for nights. My fear started controlling different aspects of my
life: family vacations and other traveling opportunities. It also began to
affect relationships with friends, family, and my boyfriend. I finally decided
I had to find a way to get help, to rid myself of this fear. I contacted Wendy
and found myself immediately comfortable talking with her. Through my sessions,
Wendy helped me erase my fear. I’m so proud of myself, what an accomplishment.
Without Wendy’s help I don’t know how much worse my fear would have become.
I thank Wendy for being an outstanding hypnotist and friend. It was with her
guidance that I am now free from my fear of bugs.”

—- Jenni E., Bronx, NY

“I am a 56 year old woman who has always had a difficult time in going
on OR sticking to a diet; I have no will power at all, or so I thought. That
all changed when I met Wendy Packer, who has given me the inspiration and help
that I desperately needed. I have known Wendy for only a short period of time
(3 months) and in that time, I have found that I do have the ability and will
power that is imperative to lose weight and be healthier. I would like to say
how much I appreciate all her help, advice and support. I have already lost
several inches in the right places and a considerable amount of weight. I feel
much better than I have in many years and my recent blood test will attest
to the difference. My hypnosis sessions have given me the ability, with much
greater ease than I had ever imagined, finally losing weight and feeling good
about myself. I would like to thank Wendy and would highly recommend her to
anyone who wants to look and feel better. With much appreciation,”

—- Mary Ann Viola, New Rochelle, NY

“After having smoked for the past 35 yrs., I never thought I would have
the will power to stop smoking. Wendy Packer proved me wrong. Her hypnosis
smoking cessation program has made me a non-smoker and I know I will remain
a non-smoker forever.”

—- Vito Guarino, New Jersey

“For as long as I can remember, I’ve had tremendous anxiety when
it came to studying and taking exams. I would become extremely stressed and
had a difficult time concentrating. I had tried many different things hoping
to improve my test taking abilities, but nothing helped nearly as much as hypnosis.
It has given me the confidence I never thought was possible and has greatly
improved my concentration and made me anxious free. Thank you, Wendy for all
your support and guidance.”

—- Kelly S., New York City, NY

“I’ve suffered with chronic pain for many years, and heard about
Wendy Packer and her pain management hypnosis. When I listen to her soothing
voice, in person and on tape in my home, I feel my body releasing itself of
tension and discomfort. Her positive suggestions have helped me tremendously
and I have a better overall well-being.”

—- Ellie Gardocki, New Rochelle, NY

“For the past 7 years I have been afflicted with a condition called Trigeminal
Neuralgia. This condition affects the nerves in the face and gives you terrible
recurrent pain. I have been on all kinds of medication to get it under control
but there are times that the pain is so terrible that the medication just doesn’t
work. One day, when the pain was so terrible, instead of increasing my dosage
of pain meds I remembered that Wendy did hypnosis for chronic pain. She immediately
saw me, hypnotized me for the first time, which lessened my pain and within
2 days my pain completely disappeared; it has not returned. She is a true “LIFE
SAVER”, her soothing voice is a pleasure to listen to. I listen to my
tape to refresh myself and to relax. She has since helped me in losing weight
also. Thank you, Wendy, for being a good friend as well.”

—- Rosanne Lunde, New Rochelle, NY

“Wendy, I am very happy with the results so far.

- I am watching what I eat.
- I crave more nutritional meals verses just foods that I loved in the past.
- I don’t eat just anything anymore. What’s more important is that I am satisfied
with healthy foods and not just big fatty dishes.
- I drink water all day long and don’t feel the need for snacking.
- I’ve started an exercise routine.
- I no longer stuff myself until oblivion.

I feel better already. I was never satisfied with my meals unless there was
an abundance of it. I don’t feel that way anymore.

I really hope this continues.

—- Best Regards, Vlad, Brooklyn, NY

Hi Wendy,

It has been more than a month and Chandler has not sucked her thumb! We are
all so pleased! Chandler also had her braces taken off and her teeth look lovely.
She still listens to your CD every night. It has never been a chore for her,
but a real pleasure! . Thank you so much for your service.”
