Dr. Livneh Hypnotherapy Institute

I originally came to Dr. Livneh after years of trying to lose weight from my last pregnancy. For the first time in my life I was having a hard time with weight loss and it was really affecting me in a negative way. Thanks to Dr. Livneh I became aware that I was struggling with other underlying issues that were far more important than I thought. Since I started seeing Dr. Livneh four months ago, I have lost 15 pounds. I have ten more pounds to lose, but I am not concerned about my ability to lose the rest of the weight because Dr. Livneh gave me the tools to succeed and removed the emotional obstacles that were blocking me from reaching my goal. Since seeing Dr. Livneh I am not only thinner, but I am a happier person, more confident and more balanced. Now I have control over my weight, my food cravings, and my life. Thanks Dr. Livneh! more

I had spoken about quitting smoking yet had failed time and time again. I was a slave. It was stronger than I was, or so I believed. Now, I am free. I have not smoked in 2 months and, better yet, I have no desire. It is over. I have won. I am in control. I was even in a casino in Vegas and everyone was smoking and it was as if they were invisible to me. I thought it was silly to be hypnotized, and I still wonder about the process but the results speak for themselves. Dr. Livneh is a special person with unique abilities. You will be lucky to work with her. Thank you Dr. Livneh, from me, my wife, and my children. more

I walked into Dr Livneh?s office 8 months ago knowing two things. (1) I wanted to stop smoking. (2) I had no idea how hypnotherapy was going to work on me. As a smoker for over 20 years who tried to stop many times I knew I needed to try something different. A relative referred me to Dr Livneh and I decided to give it a try. I chain smoked 4 cigarettes before going into her office (Just in case it worked, I wanted to get in as much as possible?) The session lasted around 4 hours and was a great experience in self discovery. I walked out of her office and never smoked again nor had the urge to. Bottom line? Dr. Livneh changed my life. Thank you! Pros: It worked. I never smoked again! more

I came to Dr.Livneh 3 years ago at age 74.I have smoked for 61 years, one and a half pack a day.During the years I tried seven different programs, including two hypnotherapists,to quit smoking but I continued to smoke.I have always said that God must love me ,otherwise I would have not been here.When my dentist told me that Dr. Livneh had 100% success with his patients I gave her a call. I asked her what is her success rate and she responded 90%.I told her what my dentist said and Dr.Livneh answered that although this is true and several others Drs had the same experience,she believes that nothing can be guaranteed 100%.I realized that she is honest and sincere and I booked the appointment.After Dr.Livneh's one session program to stop smoking,I did quit.I felt relaxed and comfortable with her,and it was easy for me to connect with her.She helps without being judgemental which helped me to feel safe.Since I quit smoking my sleep is much better.I've more energy.I've more time.I started to go fishing.I don't smell,and people around me enjoy my company much more.They said that I am much more relaxed and kind.At age 77 I feel better than I have felt in years. more

As a young musician I've had many competitions. Usually I've just felt a little anxious,enough to keep me practicing and practicing.However,before my first international competition I felt so overwhelmed,that I was unable to play.I started to doubt my ability and almost convinced myself that my techniques are not good enough to participate.Was I lucky!my step father told me how Dr.Livneh helped him to overcome his writer's block and said that he was sure she can help me.As a result of our work together not only did I regain my confidence,but I got more than before.With her skills, knowledge,and creativity Dr.Livneh was able to address in hypnosis every concern that I had and to reframe it to my benefit.At the competition itself every thing that we worked during the sessions did happen.I was so calm ,one with the music.I had an amazing experience feeling that the music come through me,as if somebody else is playing...It was my subconscious that led my fingers.As Dr.Livneh suggested and I visualized and felt during the sessions I was at my best,at my full potential.And I won! The work I did with Dr.Livneh was a life transforming experience ,and with her encouragement I continue to use the tools I got. I've no doubt that working with Dr.Livneh you'll become a winner in whatever you need. more

First Dr Livneh cured me of smoking and then two years later when I finally acknowledged that I also needed to stop drinking she cured me of that as well. She is amazing! I could never have done it without her. She enabled me to take hold of myself. I'd recomend her to anyone. She truly cares for her patients. She is enthusiastic, wise and full of energy. She gave me a restart in life. more

I brought my 7 year old overweight grand- daughter to Dr.Livneh.I'm so thankful for the work she did with her.From the beginning I saw a difference in her attitude toward food.And she started to lose weight,her attitude toward school,her friends,and her family changed too.Her grades went up.Her weeklly sessions with Dr.Livneh were the highlight of her week.Dr. Livneh helped her not only to lose all the extra pounds,but also to be confident and happy.My grand-daughter told me that during the first session, when asked to draw a picture of her self ,there were tears in her stomach and she wrote that no one loves her(she wes socially rejected.AF).When the work was done-there was sunshine! in her stomach.What a difference! Dr.Livneh is professional,caring,and honest.When she realized that a certain behavior of my daughter and my son in law were counter productive to her work,she met with my daughter for 3 hours and then guided her over the phone. She didn't charge for all that valuable extra help,as she knew the financial difficulties of the family at that time Pros: all Cons: none more

i came to see Dr.Livneh on the advice of my doctor.Two years after my second marriage,it was falling apart and so was I.I felt powerless,I was consumed with negativity,and almost was ready to say good bye.Four months later,through my work with Dr.Livneh I'm a changed person.I've learned to access my power,my strength,and my courage,that I forgot existed in me.This brought amazing changes into my life.Instead of the negativity ,I feel my strength and I feel powerful.I move forward in my career and I started to make more money than ever before. I learned how to remain calm and not to be affeted by the negativity of others. Dr.Livneh's broad knowledge, quick insight,and wealth of techniques gave me exactly what I needed for my emotional healing,and to be able to look forward to the future with excitement.she is loving and caring.Thanks for her believing in me, I now trust and believe in me.No words will describe how thankful I am.Dr. Livneh is one of a kind. Cons: none more

I came to Beverly Hills with my wife and our three daughters to visit my uncle and other family members,that we didn't see since we moved east.After three sleepless nights at the hotel,I became cranky,I felt lethargic,and was ready to cut the family vacation short and to take the next flight back home.It was my uncle who told me about Dr.Livneh.She helped him and his son to get rid of cigarettes about six years ago. I never slept through the night and constantly felt exhausted.I stop running and swimming and I gained 30 pounds.My life was going down the hills.I made an appointment with Dr.Livneh. Her office is done in different shades of blue,and is very relaxing. The recliner is the most comfortable chair,and her voice is very soothing.I saw Dr.Livneh for three sessions,before we headed east.She Literally saved my life.I appreciate so much the work she did with me.Her sincere concern and eagerness to help are remarkable.It has been six months since I was lucky to meet with Dr.Livneh.Although we didn't finish the work ,every night I get a good night sleep.I feel much stronger physically, I run again and my life is better in many way.I can't wait to come back to LA to do some more work with Dr.Livneh who without a doubt saved my life! Pros: every thing Cons: none more

I am a non-smoker! I feel like I have always been a non-smoker. For more than 30 years I joked that my three basic food groups were nicotine, caffeine, and sugar. Now, thanks to Dr. Livneh, nicotine will never be part of my life again and caffeine and sugar are questionable. It's hard to believe I simply don't need or want any of them. Going to bed listening to Dr. Livneh's tape, I sleep the most deep and restful sleep I have experienced in years. Awaking in the morning, without the need for an alarm clock, feeling fully refreshed, was an unexpected and most welcome benefit. My boss still makes me crazy sometimes, but I just take three or six deep breaths, and I'm back in the office with a smile. I have gained no weight, only self-esteem. Dr. Livneh asked me if I was excited about being a non-smoker and I replied, "No. I feel like it is my natural condition and that I've never been a smoker." Dr. Livneh' techniques and hypnotherapy made this minor miracle in my life possible. Cons: none more

I smoked for forty years.It destroyed my health.I was short of breath,I couldn't ski or run.It ruined my gum,and I started to suffer from some heart problems.When I told my doctor that I want to quit smoking,he told me that he got the perfect person for this. When I heard the word hypnosis I told him that I have no desire to quack like a duck.He told me about all his patients that Dr.Livneh helped to stop smoking and how happy they are.He gave me her brochure and website address and asked me to read the articles she wrote about hypnosis.He added that hypnosis isn't what what I think and that he himself had hypnosis with Dr.Livneh and loved it. Oh boy was I wrong!was he so right.A year later,a year of being smoke free, I know that the idea to go to Dr. Livneh was the best .It was the best thing that happened to me.The difference in how I feel is lIke day and night.I can ski again.I have more time.I escaped the misery I lived in.I'm happy,I continue to listen to the tapes Dr.Livneh made for me and I continue to use the tools she taught me.What a big change in my life thank to her,a huge one.Since that evening I left her office ,when I see others smoking I wonder why.I'm happy and so are my friends I refered to Dr.Livneh.If you are ready to quit I'm sure that she is the perfect one for you too. more

I'd been an on again off again smoker for about 30 years when I heard of Dr. Livneh through a friend. We decided to do it at the same time for support since we've both tried to stop so many times before. I must say it is one of the very best things I've ever done for myself. When I'm around other smokers I don't feel like I want one, the smoke doesn't make me feel anything. I just feel like I've never smoked in my life. It's a strange realization when I start to think about it but the desire to smoke is totally and completely out of my body, mind and soul. Dr. Livneh made this so easy I just wish I'd done it years ago and that everyone that smokes could take advantage of her skills. I tell everyone I can without being a nag. It's definitely a personal choice and a person definitely needs to be ready for the change. I' so glad I can say, Dr. Livneh helped me take control of my life. Smoking no longer controles me. At first I was a little taken aback by the cost. It's a lot of money and I was afraid it wouldn't work any better than all the other times I stoped and started. But it's been two years three months and I've even been able to use the tecniques she taught me on other things. I've definitely gotten my monies worth many times over. And my friend is still a non-smoker too. more

since I remeber myself I always had sleep problems.I couldn't fall asleep,and as I woke up I was unable to go back to sleep.I felt tired and exhausted,and my memory was almost gone.Sleeping pills had a terrible side effect on me.Then I heard about Dr.Livneh from a collegue and I had five sessions with her.Now,using the tools Dr.Livneh taught me,playing the tapes she made for me,and as a result of her woek with me,I sleep better than I have ever slept.Sleep isn't an issue for me any more.I fall asleep easily and I sleep throughout the night.I feel energetic,strong and my memory is back.All those positivechanges couldn't happen to me without the wisdom and skills of Dr.Livneh.she is amazing.The attention Dr.Livneh gave me,her constant support and care continue to be for me a source of inspiration. Pros: superb Cons: none more

Do you ever do enjoyable things but not really enjoy it? I know I have. As an eye surgeon I was finding that intensity and tension from work would seems to carry over and get in the way of relaxing and enjoying the moments when I wasn't working. Hypnotherapy is a great tool to be able to quickly access a more playful and joyful aspect of yourself. Dr. Livneh is terrific. The session itself is both reinvigorating and deeply relaxing. My body is at peace. She even made a tape of the session and gave it to me to use at home. more

Dr. Armona Livneh is the best hypno therapist I have ever met. I was recommended to her by a woman named Karen which I met at an Ice skating rink. My fear of flying and traveling to far from home stopped me from enjoying life. I tried different medicines to calm my enxiety during flying, but nothing seemed to work. For years my family stopped taking vacations that involved flying. I finnaly went to Dr. Livneh with high hopes. The minute I met her I liked her very much. Her calm voice and possitive outlook was already a start for me to start making changes in my life. She thought me how to have control of my life and how to use the tools she gave me to calm and relax myself under any situation. Dr. Livneh has become my best friend. Even after my sessions were over she followed up by calling me and making sure that I was doing well. I love her work so much that I took my 17 year old son Allen to her. He is a figure skater training to qualify for Junior Worlds. The pressure has become overwelming for him. He has been seeing Dr. Livneh for 4 sessions, and he is just loving her. He is feeling the difference is his skating already. He is feeling more confident and stronger about himself. I will recommend Dr. Livneh who is suffering from any type of problems.

I came to Dr. Livneh about 14 months ago for help in controlling my weight. Under hypnosis, she helped me relax, control my stress?and happily break my longterm emotional dependence on food. After a half century of being overweight, I lost 45 pounds over five months, without ever counting calories or feeling ?deprived.? I?ve actually achieved my ideal weight, and now, through the mental imaging techniques we worked out together, I know I?m going to stay slim because I can ?see? myself slim, every day. It?s a wonderful change, both mentally and physically. I feel like a new man. Just as importantly as actually losing the weight?perhaps more importantly?I found I could trust Dr. Livneh?s judgment and strong ethics. She holds a PhD and taught psychology at the college level, unlike many practitioners who study this wonderful art only briefly. Hypnosis is not a parlor game and the choice of any therapist, including a hypnotherapist, should not be casual. I would recommend her to anyone wishing to ?get control? of his or her body. more

I was recommended to Dr. Livneh by a friend who she helped quit smoking 2 and a half years ago. (She smoked for 27 years, 2 packs a day). My friend is still raving about her. I couldn't live without Dr. Livneh at this very difficulty time in my life, the worst. Before seeing her I was just crying a lot. I've started to change from the day I came to her. And with every session I have experienced more and more positive changes. Thanks to Armona's amazing help, now, in my mid-40s I feel free like when I was 20, without baggage. She brought me back to myself, to whm I was and what I can do. Again, I can see that there is a future ahead of me. Again I have goals that I want to achieve and I am able to focus on what I need to do in order to fulfill them. I feel unstoppable. I recommend Dr. Livneh with the highest possible recommendation to everyone. She is just the best! more

I came to Dr. Livneh dominated by anxiety and fear. After 20 years without taking a single test I needed to take one. After four sessions I passed the exam with a very high score. I still can't believe that during the test I was the calmest I have ever been, just as Dr. Livneh told me -in hypnosis- I would be. Since then, whenever I need to calm myself, I think of myself taking the exam. Dr. Livneh's work is very professional and is done in a very relaxed and safe atmosphere. She is warm, genuinely caring, and very supportive. From my first session with her she gained my trust and I knw that when another issue comes up, I will go to her again. more

Dr. Livneh is so professional, skilled, and caring that the sessions with her were very positive for me. I came to her to overcome my fear of flying that I have suffered from for years. It limited me and affected my family. Due to my work with Dr. Livneh, not only did I fly to New York and feel great, but I flew in a private jet to Europe. Using the techniques she taught me, I was calm throughout the 14-hour flight. The unthinkable for me became my reality, I will always be grateful, to Dr. Livneh. Cons: none more

I heard great things about Dr. Livneh from others who had very succesfully seen her for hypnotherapy, and after doing so myself, I'm joining them in the recommendation. I went to see her for a couple issues, including confidence and stress management. First, I was impressed by her knowledge and professionalism. And then, she created these deep and personalized sessions for me that left me feeling entirely relaxed and rejuvenated. I walked into her office after some tough events that left my self-confidence shaken, and kept me stressed out. By the time I walked out, I felt totally calm and relaxed, ready to go on with my life, carrying the tools she gave me in our session. From my experiences with her, Dr. Livneh is a very talented and knowledgable hypnotherapist. I would highly recommend Dr. Livneh highly to anyone and everyone, and already have to my family and friends. more
