Hello! I'm
Traci Kanaan
Hypnotist, Hypnotherapist, and Life Coach
Author, and Jedi Knight
Hi! I'm Traci and welcome to Wings Hypnosis! As a hypnosis professional and life coach, I am dedicated to taking you to the next best version of yourself by providing a welcoming, comfortable, friendly, and positive environment. My unique synthesis of Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Life Coaching combined with a little humor gives you the perspective and the tools you need to become the next best version of yourself. My current clients will tell you that I'm a gentle soul, yet very straight forward in my approach. I am not a hypnosis "script reader." When you work with me, you'll enjoy a creative, personal, and meaningful hypnosis experience custom tailored "on the fly" to to meet your unique issues, goals, and dreams. I start every session with understanding what YOU desire to accomplish and then pull from 50+ transformation modalities to get you where you want to be as quickly as possible. Unlike many of my "wellness" competitors, I want happy clients and raving fans...not life-long dependents.
What I Do
Hypnosis
As a hypnotist, I'm trained to put you into a hypnotic state and give you suggestions so you can become the next best version of yourself.
Hypnotherapy
As a hypnotherapist, I'm trained to find and transform thoughts and behaviors that are standing in the way of your success.
NLP Master & Trainer
NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. As an NLP Master and Trainer, I'm trained to provide you with word choices to transform your errant thoughts and behaviors into empowering suggestions quickly.
Life Coach
I combine hypnosis, hypnotherapy, and NLP in a unique, effective and fun way for you to transform yourself into the next best version of yourself.
My Training
I have 3000+ hours of hypnosis training, so I can draw from the best modalities in order to help my clients achieve their goals as quickly as possible.
NLP Master & Trainer
Powerful Suggestions = Powerful Results! NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Successful people talk to themselves differently than non-successful people. By learning the speech and thought patterns of successful people, you can replicate success in your own life. Studying these speech and thought patterns and how to incorporate them into your sessions for maximum impact is my passion.
Certified Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotist
I've studied with world-renowned NLP trainer Dr. Will Horton and founder of the National Federation for Neuro-Lingustic Programming. This certification shows how to synthesize Hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming so the client can achieve maximum results. If Hypnosis is the vehicle, NLP is the premium octane gas to get you where you want to be as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Certified Hypnotist
Basic fundamental training for any Hypnotist. I learned how to put people in trance, and take them out of trance, and give basic suggestions. I studied the classic Elman induction, rapid inductions, and progressive relaxation. I've studied master hypnotists, both past and present, and taken the best of what I learned to bring to my clients. I've taken this training times with different instructors, always learning something new.
Certified Hypnotherapist
Hypnosis Basics, the 50 step protocol of Childhood Regression, Parts Therapy, Gestalt, and numerous other techniques to help my clients transform traumatic childhoods into empowered adults. Regression is the process by which the hypnotist guides you back through time to recall specific memories that formed you.
Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist
Extensive training on implementing Hypnotic Pain Management Techniques. Great for those afraid of the dentist, migraines and headaches, and those preparing for or recovering from surgical procedures. Those suffering from phantom pain, missing limbs, cancer, or other ailments may be able to find relief through hypnosis as well.
Certified Transpersonal Hypnotherapist
Additional training on how working with clients within their belief system. Topics included studies of Karma, Dharma, Reincarnation, Spirituality, Entity Release and Alien Abduction. Regardless of your spiritual affiliation (or lack thereof), I have a protocol that will help you get the results you want.
Sexual Freedom Hypnosis Practitioner
Hypnosis to increase (or decrease) libido, arousal, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, porn addiction, kink and fetish management, and LGBTQA issues. Traci is one of the few "sex positive" and swinger and kink friendly hypnotherapists in the United States, with over 10+ years in the swinging lifestyles and BDSM scene.
Smoking Cessation Specialist
Specialized training in hypnotic techniques specifically to help people quit smoking cigarettes, cigars, and pipes, vaping, chewing tobacco, and smoking pot. My protocol is a powerful "one and done" session, so my clients quit smoking easily and effortless without cravings, in as little as 2 - 2.5 hours. My process if lifetime guaranteed; if my clients start smoking anytime they can come back in for a refresher at no charge.
Virtual Gastric Band Weight Loss Specialist
Lose weight easily and effortlessly with our 4 session Virtual Gastric Band program. Eat less, reduce food cravings, get motivated to exercise and enjoy living life while sizing down. This protocol is flexible and addresses other downfalls in weight loss; portion control, stress eating, exercise motivation, and cravings for salty and sweet foods.
Certified Hypnotist: Identity by Design
Additional Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy tricks to help my clients update their belief systems faster than ever. I use these in just about ever session I do, especially when I've had clients who've been through a lot of therapy and don't want to tell their story AGAIN. Some of these change your neurology on the spot in the most surprising simple ways.
Certified Hypnotist: Conversational Hypnosis
Sometimes this is called "Waking Hypnosis." No formal induction, no swaying watch, just talking my clients into trance. I've found this useful when I get a client who wants change but is afraid of hypnosis thanks to inaccurate media portrayals, doesn't understand what Hypnosis really is, and/or has severe trust issues.
Certified Hypnotist:
Hypnotic Presentation Skills
Using Hypnosis and careful word choices to persuade and influence in my presentations (and comedy shows) to ensure my audiences pay attention, to ensure I can hold their interest, and get them to act. Invaluable tools I use as a stand up comedian and share with my clients who are interested in public speaking.
Face Reading, Chinese Medicine & Hypnotherapy
Your face tells a lot about you, and I use this in every session to best communicate with my clients and quickly uncover what their most troublesome issues might be, as well as when those issues came about. From birth to the age of 25, you are given your face. From 25-50, you choose your face. From 50-on up, you wear the face you've earned.
Ordained Minister
Ordained Minister with the Universal Life Church. This allows me to "touch" clients as needed for hypnosis. I also officiate weddings, vow renewals, and celebrations. Please ask about my personalized ceremonies for non-traditional relationships within Swinging, BDSM, LGBTQA and Polyamory communities.
Jedi Knight
Do or do not...there is no try!
When I became an ordained minister, I could add this gem to my bag of tricks for another $10. A huge Star Wars fan, how could I not be a Jedi Knight? Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy is a lot like Jedi Mind Tricks anyway, so now it's official.
"May The Force be with you."
