Faq

Yes! Hypnosis works directly with your subconscious mind, where habits are stored. It helps weaken old patterns, reinforce healthier behaviors, and create long-term change without the constant struggle.

Absolutely. If you’ve struggled with quitting, relapsing, or falling back into old habits, it’s likely because the root cause wasn’t fully addressed. Dr. Kass focuses on what’s driving the habit, not just the surface-level behavior. 

Breaking a habit isn’t just about stopping a behavior. It’s about replacing it with something better. Therapy helps you identify triggers and patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, overcome mental roadblocks and self-sabotage, and build a mindset that supports long-term change.

Dr. Kass works with a wide range of habits, including smoking and vaping, nail-biting and skin-picking, procrastination and self-sabotage, overeating and emotional eating, negative self-talk and perfectionism, excessive screen time and doomscrolling, and many other habits that may be holding you back. 

Good news: you don’t need willpower alone. Most habits aren’t about self-control, they’re about brain wiring. Dr. Kass uses hypnosis, cognitive techniques, and behavior strategies to make change feel natural, not like a battle.

For many people, hypnosis significantly reduces cravings and often they fade away completely. If urges still pop up, Dr. Kass teaches practical strategies to help you manage them without feeling deprived.
