On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Ethan Reisboard, CHt, a board-certified hypnotherapist, to cut through myths about hypnosis and get practical about change. We break down how hypnotherapy works on the subconscious mind and nervous system, why it can accelerate results alongside talk therapy and rehab, and how it helped Ethan recover from post-concussion syndrome when other approaches stalled. If you’re navigating anxiety, ADHD-style distraction, chronic pain, or behavior loops (smoking, overeating, procrastination), this conversation outlines a non-pharmacological, skills-based path to regulation, clarity, and follow-through. Direct, grounded, and focused on implementation—not hype.

About the Guest  :

Ethan Reisboard, CHt is a board-certified hypnotherapist. After debilitating migraines and eye dysfunction from post-concussion syndrome, he used hypnotherapy to calm a hyperactive nervous system, then returned to other therapies with far better results. He now helps clients create lasting, transferable changes in day-to-day life.

Key Takeaways  :

• 
  

  Hypnotherapy isn’t stage tricks; it guides the brain into a receptive learning state so new responses “stick.”

  
  


• 
  

  Most people know what to do; the gap is implementation. Hypnosis targets that gap at the subconscious level.

  
  


• 
  

  Nervous system regulation is foundational; when stress reactivity drops, other treatments (OT/PT/CBT) work better.

  
  


• 
  

  Useful for loops like smoking, overeating, or procrastination, and processes tied to anxiety, pain, and focus.

  
  


• 
  

  No mind control: clients can’t be made to do what they don’t want. Change requires willing participation.

  
  


• 
  

  Pairing talk therapy insights with hypnotherapy helps translate “what I know” into “what I do.”

  
  


• 
  

  Aim for confidence, clarity, and appropriate stress response rather than trying to avoid triggers.

  
  


• 
  

  Non-invasive and drug-free; focuses on durable skills versus quick suppression (e.g., contrasts with symptom-only fixes).

  
  


• 
  

  Simple daily practice: return to the present—observe, interrupt future-fear/past-rumination—to reduce symptom intensity.

  
  


• 
  

  Expect broader adoption: as evidence and access grow, people will seek hypnotherapy earlier, not as a last resort.
