I have found Hans to be a skilled practitioner in several healing modalities. His success as a healer is surely fueled by a combination of technical expertise, a strong intuitive sense, mindful presence and years of experience. As his client I found complete and lasting relief from bursitis in my left hip, which was bothering me almost 10 years ago. His work has also brought a sense of emotional and physical balance to my life when needed.

She was amazing! Attentive, a great listener and communicator, working out tough tension spots in a way I didn’t even, know was possible! I wish I could afford to see her every week!

My wife and I have been very happy in all dealings with the Valley Life Improvement Center. Annette Hochman truly knows how to improve lives including all aspects of relationship handling and getting rid of negative emotions. They have showed how to achieve goals by following a clearly delineated purpose in life. We would have no hesitancy in recommending them for handling stress and any form of anxiety or negative feelings.

I was always curious about hypnosis. Hypnotherapy was for me an opportunity to experience it first-hand and in a professional setting. Also I saw it as a way to increase the level of agency I have with my own beliefs. Before learning about this, I had heard about the different parts we are composed of, but I was not clear as to how these parts were related, and how the way they are related can be used to our advantage. I took some aspects of myself as “set in stone” when in reality they were maleable. I found in Farzin an ally to explore hypnosis; he is very passionate about this subject, and I found he responded in kind when I took my side of the process seriously. Again my primary goal was to explore the subject, but In addition I got real results that improved some aspects of my own behavior, the technique of hypnosis is more effective than I had originally thought. In the past, I used to interrupt people a lot. I became better at hushing myself when listening to others. I can now see other people find it easier to talk to me than before, and this in turn made me feel more confident in social situations. In a similar manner, the reverse also happened: I became more receptive to the emotions of others, I can now feel other’s excitement for example. That was a great surprise to me, and further evidence that all is connected somehow. ​ Honestly this new find is very exciting, I find I can make more sense of my life, while at the same time it opens up possibilities. I say this because I now understand better that the parts that make us up are inter-related in a way that can be used to our advantage. I can see that there’s more where this came from, I think it was just a great way to kickstart positive changes in the issue I have been working on, and that it can be a valuable tool for changing behavior (and sensitivities) to our advantage. You reap what you sow, I found hypnosis works like that, so in a way the return on your effort will work by itself. The hypnotherapist is important since he or she will help guide the effort so that the results occur in the direction you desire. I found the concept of hypnotherapy fascinating, because it can help you change what you believe, and that tool can be used to your advantage, for example to get more agency in your daily life by helping you interfere with yourself less. While there may be other ways to do the same thing I found hypnotherapy has some advantages since there’s a mechanistic process to get results.
