Self Empowered Minds – Hypnotist in NYC

Overview

Self Empowered Minds is a holistic practice on Manhattan’s Upper East Side that combines hypnosis, Reiki/energy work, meditation, quantum biofeedback, and intuitive readings. It offers one-to-one sessions, small group classes, and certification programs. The core focus is practical: nervous-system regulation, habit change, and clarity for people dealing with stress, anxiety, sleep disruption, focus problems, or entrenched patterns. Services are delivered in-person and remotely.

Services

Hypnosis/Hypnotherapy: Age regression, traditional hypnosis, dream work, and (on request) past-life frameworks. The stated working range for behavior change is typically 5–8 sessions, with “home practice” expected between sessions.
Reiki & Energy Work: Usui/Holy Fire–based sessions for relaxation, somatic calm, and perceived chakra balance. Frequently paired with LED light exposure, sound bath elements, and tuning forks.
Biological Intuitive Techniques (BIT): An intake-stage mapping method used to surface themes and probable “root” timelines. It is not medical diagnosis; it’s a hypothesis-forming tool to guide session goals.
Quantum Biofeedback: Stress-response scanning with a plain-language report and lifestyle/supplement suggestions. Informational only.
Meditation & Breathwork: Private sessions and group formats, including “hypnotic meditation.”
Strategy Counseling & Intuitive Readings: Decision clarity, relationship/career themes, and values alignment.
Group Classes: Breathwork, sound baths, Reiki circles, Tai Chi, yoga, rhythmic somatic work, dance, Pilates, women’s self-defense, etc.
Training/Certification: Reiki Usui/Holy Fire I & II and Master; Biological Intuitive Technique training; practice workshops with mentorship and the first 3 months of post-cert support included.

Method and Session Flow

The practice is body-first and environment-conscious: low-stimulus rooms, slow pacing, and brief verbal check-ins before sessions. When hypnosis and Reiki are combined, the aim is simultaneous cognitive reframing and somatic down-regulation. BIT narrows targets by pointing to life phases or themes that repeatedly surface in energy work. None of this substitutes for licensed medical or mental-health care.

Who It Serves

Professionals and students with stress, insomnia, attention drift, or performance blocks.
Clients addressing habits (smoking, nail biting, compulsive shopping), procrastination, public-speaking anxiety, or creative stalls.
Parents seeking focus and emotional regulation support for children or teens.
Adults with persistent tension or pain who want a relaxation-based adjunct.

Expectations and Boundaries

This is complementary care, not diagnosis or treatment. Keep existing medical/therapy plans intact unless your licensed clinician advises otherwise.
Outcomes vary. The center promotes structured process over quick fixes and expects client effort between sessions.
Complex trauma or acute psychiatric risk belongs with licensed clinicians and crisis services; the center will refer out when appropriate.
Biofeedback reports are educational, not prescriptions.

Founder Saba Hocek holds multiple BANHS-accredited certifications; training in NLP & Ericksonian hypnosis; biofeedback; EMDR certification; Access Consciousness; Amen Clinics brain-coaching; and Usui/Holy Fire Reiki Master. Delivery is team-based: hypnosis, Reiki, and intuitive work are covered by practitioners with defined scopes.

Client Feedback Pattern (What Reviews Emphasize)

Public testimonials repeatedly cite calmer baseline mood, “lighter” post-session states, improved sleep/focus, and meaningful emotional release, especially when Reiki + LED or Reiki + biofeedback are paired. These are subjective reports, not guarantees. The center positions them as lived experiences rather than promises.
