I drove 19 miles only to be told I wasn’t on the schedule. Also she confirmed another customer over me. Renee is unprofessional and treated me like I never existed . I confirmed with her 3 weeks in advance .Tweety Granny didn’t have to treat me like that. I have a 1 but that was too high for the unprofessional behavior. The most horrible experience and it was frigid and below 0 outside. More...

Had a appointment with a lady and waited for almost hour and when she finally showed up she had said we didn’t have a booking and couldn’t service me anymore that day and tried to say that we never had a appt which we did and she wanted me to come back 1 hour later after already waiting a hour and I drove 30 mins for here because I had a groupon. I got my refund and will never be coming back here. I had also observed while i was waiting a guy came in for his appt and waited 15 mins with me just for a lady to come out and say that the guy was in the hospital and has been but didn’t let any of his clients know and instead just let everyone show up and waste their time and gas. Very bad business from Renee and the owner Ryan More...

Ryan has been everything I needed…after covid fears hit trying to regroup myself back to normal was difficult along with adapting to a few health hurdles. He is always so kind and POSITIVE. Not only are his hypnotherapy sessions calming and transformative he is phenomenal at marketing a business. In slow times in my industry he has helped me to reinvent ideas to generate work and it’s working! I would like to think of Ryan as my friend. He has been there for me whenever I needed. More...

Hypnotherapy
Hypnosis taught me so much about myself and completely awakened a side of me that I desperately needed. This was a very healing experience and Ryan is so compassionate and caring. Just simply the best! Thank you.

Ryan has an extraordinary ability to help lead you to your higher spiritual self. He is a gifted teacher and healer, and I am so grateful to him for his guidance and wisdom.
Dr. Courtney Drendel
Ryan has helped me to tune into a deep inner peace I could not access on my own. With neurofeedback and hypnoanalysis he has helped to heal my subconscious and in turn, my whole self. My brain waves have changed in a way that allows for more stillness and calm as opposed to the fight or flight activation I had been accustomed to my whole life. My emotional and physical well being has drastically changed due to this newfound healing he has guided me through. I am eternall grateful for Ryan and his knowledge. More...

Way back in 1994 I underwent Hypnotherapy when I tried to stop smoking. Ryan's abilities as a hypnotherapist are remarkable. I stopped smoking with 5 sessions as the program advertised and have never smoked again since 1994. I had no withdrawal and last 5 lbs as well! He is a genius. About 2008 my husband and I went back to see him for problems with anxiety and migraine for me. He helped us both and my migraines now come perhaps once every 3 months whereas I used to get them 5 out of 7 days. He's the real thing and totally professional. I'm so glad I heard of him from a friend so many years ago! More...

It's kind of smelly and cramped. I was lectured about keeping it clean before the group even started. I don't think I'll go back.

I worked with Ryan Elliott in 1992, and today I am still being blessed by my decision to work with him. I visited Ryan as a pool player, looking to improve my game by overcoming mental stumbling blocks, but unexpectedly, I received so much more than that. Ryan was so helpful to me - and I would recommend him if you are looking to improve yourself and to improve your quality of life. I give him 5 stars - and I would have given him 10 stars if it was an option. Look no further, Ryan Elliott is the absolute best. More...

In 2016, I chose to work with Ryan Elliott, at the Lightheart Center in Winfield, IL, for an emotional trauma that I was experiencing during that time. I chose correctly: Ryan's vast knowledge and experience, coupled with his supportive personality, guided me through that difficult time with great success. I would highly recommend Ryan to anyone struggling with trauma, addiction, fear, PTSD, or any other condition that keeps them from living life fully, because he will help that person to produce permanent change. I am eternally grateful for the healing that Ryan helped me to accomplish. More...

I consulted Ryan with insomnia issues. I am now off all sleeping meds! I have learned how to relax and tune into what is going on in my head and my body. Ryan is a gifted healer and also an excellent talk-based therapist. He has helped my life in innumerable ways and I recommend him to friends and relatives without hesitation. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love helping people change their lives, changing emotional slavery to subconscious freedom to be happy and successful. By removing anxiety, depression, fear, low self esteem, guilt and self sabotage, spiritual exhaustion, and addictions, one can live the life he or she was meant to live. For Smokers . . .
I offer a 6 session, one month long smoking cessation/nicotine detox program where we treat smoking on 3 levels: the habit, physically, and subconsciously finding and surfacing the hidden motivation to smoke. while finding new habits to replace the cigarettes and fading the nicotine out of the body. This 3 dimensional approach has produced a 90% success rate with a long term follow up. The schedule is twice weekly for the first two weeks and then once/week after. Quitting happens during the third week after the subconscious motivation has surfaced, your subconscious mind has been changed to work for you instead of AGAINST you which it is doing right now, and the nicotine you've consuming has been cut by 75%. Can you understand how well this works?
However, I can make you do anything you don't want to do. You have to WANT to quit.
Most smoking cessation programs can only offer a limited time success rate of near 30%.
If you're interested, please contact me but if you're more than 15 miles away, you might want to find someone closer due to the time commitment this program requires.
There's no magic. It takes some effort, willingness, and patience on your part. That said, rest assured I will do my best to help you reach your goals.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My own issues compelled me to find solutions, which I did with three treatment options: hypnoanalysis, EMDR, and Neurofeedback. Even as a teenager, I knew I wanted to help people but quit high school because I had so much anxiety then went to college after a transcendent experience but still had lots of anxiety. Once I found a hypnoanalyst and removed the source of the anxiety, a near death experience in childhood, I was free to live the life I was meant to.
Why should our clients choose you?
Ok, I wrote the book on Medical Hypnoanalysis, "The Secrets from Your Subconscious Mind", and have 40 years experience in curing people, have appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show, and have helped hundreds of clients over the years. Ok, I'm a Mensa Member and Board Certified by The American Academy of Medical Hypnoanalysts and have been a long time member of the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association.
Neurofeedback
The activity in your brain determines everything you feel and do.
While most people have normal brain function, they still have brain imbalances, perceptual difficulties, or chronic emotions that affect their day to day life. This is where neurofeedback can help.
Neurofeedback is a way to train brain activity; it is biofeedback for the brain. Most common is helping one's brain normalize an overdetermined fight or flight response to everyday situations.
