D. G. - Studio Singles, Los AngelesDr Irwin helped me take the first step to healing from my fear of driving in LA, I’m still working on it but I’m almost there. I still listen to her voice and it empowers me each time I want to avoid doing it. Thank you Dr Irwin.
Fear of Driving Hypnosis
Sarah Campos as reviewed on GoogleI achieved INCREDIBLE results with Dr. Irwin, and I think she is outstanding. I, probably like many people, was very skeptical about hypnotherapy before my session with Dr. Irwin but I decided to give it a try because all of the other habit-breaking methods/groups that I had tried did not work at all for me. Dr. Irwin records your sessions so that you can listen them over and over to reinforce the positive messages. I could not recommend anyone higher and am very grateful that a friend recommended her to me.
Hypnotherapy
