I Am Cancer Free

She is a gifted amazing person with healing abilities even though she doesn't advertise that. She is so kind and compassionate, it's hard to believe. She worked with me after hours as I went through chemo and radiation. She spent more time with me than she had to. She made me feel so alive and helped me change my negative thinking and belief patterns. She had me visualize myself as healed. She helped me change my eating habits and do the things I needed to do so that my body would fight the cancer. I am spiritual so she incorporated that into our sessions because I wanted her to. Today I am cancer free and believe my sessions with her were a huge contributor to my healing!

Professional Athlete

All I can say is that she is extremely professional and helpful like no other person I have ever been to. We have been working together for over a year and I never worry about her ability to be discreet. I trust her completely as a therapist.

Stopped Smoking

After several attempts to stop smoking, I was finally able to quit after 22 years and 6 failed attempts. I just celebrated my 2 year anniversary, and I really believe I am never going back! We did 3 hypnosis sessions and I listened to followup sessions each day for several months. Everything worked exactly like you said it would. Thank you Doc!

2 Years No Nicotine

I went to Lara 2 years ago to stop vaping. I had tried everything else and nothing worked. In 4 sessions I was able to quit nicotine for good. Today I celebrated my 2 year anniversary! Wow, it feels amazing and I can't believe I really did it! She's an amazing therapist. Thank you!

Two Sessions Is All It Took!

I have struggled with an eating disorder for 10 years and nothing has helped me. In 2 sessions we accomplished more than all of these years with other therapists. With hypnosis, Lara helped me see food as healing and no longer is my enemy. I have put on 20 much needed pounds in 3 months and no one can believe it. I was desperate for this help and am so grateful. My family is even more so. Thank you.

Firefighter With PTSD

Ms. Neely is a remarkably gifted therapist who has been genuinely so kind to offer to help me. I have suffered from PTSD for many years. She has spent the past year working with me using hypnosis and therapy and I can honestly say that I am 95% better and finally sleeping at night. After I shared my financial situation, she has never allowed me to pay her for her services. She has a huge heart and is one of the most generous people I have met. I am sure she can't do that for a lot of people because she has to run a successful business (her office is amazing) but I just wanted to share that she really is that kind and caring. When I have the financial ability, I will definitely find a way to repay her! She is making a big difference in the world.

QUIT TOBACCO!

I tried over 10 times to quit using tobacco and always went back after a month or two. She helped me quit and I just celebrated my 5 year anniversary! My whole family had a party today to celebrate and we reached out to let her know so she jumped on a zoom call to celebrate with us! She's awesome like that and makes you feel like she's as excited about your success as you are. She is very talented and amazing at what she does, also the kindest person ever. THANK YOU DR NEELY!

I Am A Rich Guy - She Was The Only Person Who Ever Understood My Pain

When you have financial success, people often think you don't have personal problems. They just see the big house and nice cars and airplanes and vacations but they don't see the miserable relationships under the surface that can exist. I was tired and I am getting old, and I just needed some help but wasn't sure who to trust. This brilliant lady worked with me in therapy and did hypnosis to ease my anxiety. In 3 months my family says I don't resemble the guy I once was. All I can say is that my relationships are better and I am better. I am a rich guy, but now for the first time, I feel rich in the ways that count.

Success W/insomnia

After 6 weeks I am sleeping like a baby. I used to wake up all throughout the night and felt it was impossible to fall asleep. I would just toss and turn and my anxiety would go through the roof.

Dr. Neely is so helpful! I started noticing results after the first session. She is very trustworthy, qualified, and knowledgable. She is also incredibly warm and kind. She makes me feel safe and welcome and always takes a lot of time with me to answer questions. I have talked to other people who have gone to her, and everyone agrees that she is the best.

Hypnosis is easy and fun and I always feel incredible afterwards. I highly recommend this therapist.

Lost 30 Pounds

I hit my goal weight after working with Dr. Neely for 4 months. This was after 20 years of having no success! She incorporated hypnosis after learning about me and really took time to get to know me. It was astounding how much time she spent on me and made me feel valuable and important. After I sat in the "Magic Chair" as I like to call it for hypnosis, I never wanted to get up. She just made me feel so relaxed and happy! My biggest issue has always been sweets, and Dr. Neely helped me squash those cravings. She also helped me with motivation and exercise. All in all, I realized that there's no "one size fits all" program, and what I appreciate so much about Dr. Neely is that she takes a very unique and different approach to weight loss. She always told me that she wanted me to feel healthy and enjoy the journey instead of waiting until I had lost the weight to feel good about myself. One hypnosis session was entirely about letting go of shame and guilt and that seemed to be the turning point for my success. Give it a try if you have been thinking about it. You won't be sorry! Hypnosis is fun, relaxing, and enjoyable. She puts you at ease and you can trust her right away. Her heart is definitely in the right place and you will never feel more cared about!

Stopped Smoking After 30 Years

I quit after 2 sessions. It's been 6 months and I have no desire. I smoked 2 packs a day or more for 30 years. I never thought this could happen after trying numerous other methods. Dr. Lara is the nicest and easiest person I have ever worked with in a clinical setting. I will be coming back to work on exercise motivation next!

I Am A Professional Athlete

I see Dr. Neely once a week. She has helped me overcome my confidence issues and my inability to relax, and replace unrealistic expectations of myself as an athlete. She is a wonderful therapist. She uses hypnosis, visualization, meditation, biofeedback, and psychotherapy to help me succeed. I was nervous in the beginning and afraid it wouldn't work for me but the way she is really allowed me to let my guard down from day 1. My performance has benefitted tremendously, my coaches and teammates are noticeably impressed, and my career feels solid now. Warning- all of my teammates are starting to take notice. I don't know how much time she will have for others if we bring her on board! Thanx Dr. Neely. You are the bomb!

COVID Anxiety & Drinking Too Much

I went to this therapist because I have been drinking too much due to COVID and job loss. She has been helping me as I have been searching for work and has helped me with my anxiety and depression. I didn't think it would help as much as it has but I am thankful for what she has been able to do for me. I have a new job starting next week and honestly don't think I would have been able to handle the interview or control my drinking now without the therapy and hypnosis. I have been to several therapists in the past but this is the first time I feel like I found someone who really cares and listens and offers real feedback. I think she said she is solutions focused and that is the best part because she helps you figure out solutions instead of dwelling on the past and I really needed that. Only negative is she doesn't take insurance but it's 100% worth it.

The Most Amazing Experience Of My Life

I had so much chronic pain and was feeling helpless and depressed when I went to see Lara Neely for help. After a few counseling sessions, we decided to try hypnosis. I went into the office unable to walk with such neuropathy and left in no pain. The pain returned hours later, but was much less than normal and I have been using techniques she has given me to work through it. Nothing has given me this much relief. I can't describe the incredible hope I feel now and what it is like to find someone who genuinely cares so much about what I am going through. Its hard to describe what its like being around Dr. Neely but she always makes me feel calm and safe and genuinely cared for. Hypnosis is fun and soothing and nothing like I thought in my mind. I wasn't really sure what to expect but I just know that I was shocked to find how much it did help me. I think hypnosis is beneficial but also you have to go to a therapist like her who really cares and knows what they are doing. She is probably one of the best there is just based upon talking with others and when I compare to so many others I have been to. I am excited to see how things progress but I am encouraged for the first time ever that I can regain some control over my pain and my life again.

I didn't know what to expect and I had no idea how much it would help me. I was unable to sleep at night and now sleeping 6+ hours. My anxiety has improved so much. I really like this therapist. She is very soothing and calm and makes you feel wonderful. She is pleasant and kind and treats you with so much compassion. Hard to describe but I have never been so at ease and leave every session thinking I can't wait to come back.

Anxiety And Depression

I really don't know how to describe my sessions with Dr. Neely other than to say she has made me feel more relaxed, peaceful, and happy than I have felt in my entire life. I have OCD, Anxiety and Depression and she helped me with it all. I no longer have social anxiety and I feel much better at controlling my OCD. My depression has improved so much that my MD took me off medication. I waited longer than I ever should have to get help. If you are tired of suffering and don't know who to call or what to do, just contact this amazing woman. You will not be sorry! If you are looking for peace and safety, you will know you have found it the second you walk in her office and meet her. Thank you Dr. Neely. You are the best ever!

Do This For Yourself!

I can't believe I spent so many years wondering if this would work and being afraid to try it. I don't know what I expected, but it was easy and felt amazing. I don't know if my favorite part was working with Dr. Neely or being hypnotized! She is so calming and has such a pleasant voice. I knew right away after I met her that I would love the experience and I was right. She is helping me with my depression and anxiety and I finally have hope for the first time in ages that I can feel somewhat normal and happy. In the first session, Dr. Neely pinpointed the root of my problems and we began addressing it right away. I have never been to anyone who is so insightful. She makes it easy to be myself and open up and accept the help. Do this for yourself. You won't regret it.

Helped From Day One

I was having terrible anxiety and nothing helped. she spent time with me like no one else ever has and then hypnotized me. From the first session I noticed a huge difference. after 4 sessions I am now sleeping through the night again. I don't know how I can ever say thank you enough. No one else ever spent that much time working with me and figuring out the source of my anxiety. She made it seem easy.

Best person I have ever been to for help with weight loss! I have worked with Dr. Neely for 11 months and have lost 98 pounds using hypnosis. I have 30 more pounds to lose but I feel like a million bucks and can honestly say I would have never made it without her help. Sad thing is I hate for this to end because I enjoy my weekly sessions with her so much. 😊 If you go to her you will feel the same way. She's really amazing and makes you feel like you can accomplish anything you set your mind to.

Weight Loss Hypnosis Works!

I have lost 22 pounds in two months now after Miss Neely's hypnosis. I have more to go but I have tried everything and nothing has ever helped me like this. I am not hungry anymore for junk food and as a side note I sleep better now also. She is so kind and made me feel like I wasn't being judged and she even gave me free sessions when she found out I was in financial trouble. I am forever grateful to her and so glad I tried hypnosis and found out it is safe and easy and works so well.

Weight Loss

I just completed a 12 week weight loss program where Dr. Neely included hypnosis sessions to add suggestions for helping me with drinking more water, working out and eating less sugar. I was able to lose 26 pounds through it all. She is a gifted person who was there to keep me motivated week after week. No doubt I owe my success to having her there to help me. I love the hypnosis and will continue to use it. I have just started using it to help me sleep at night and it works great. Definitely give this a try if you haven't done it before and go to Dr. Neely if you are in the area, or see if she can work with you over distance. She's probably the most compassionate and helpful person I have ever worked with and was able to push me to reach my goals. I have been trying to lose weight for 8 years without success until now.

Dr. Neely created a personalized weight loss program for me with hypnosis included. I listened every night before bed for several weeks. I slept better and found myself less hungry and wanting to exercise more. I’ve lost 45 pounds over 3 months. I think she has an amazing gift of listening and has helped me pinpoint my goals and find ways to reach them. I’m very thankful to have found her and have recommended her to everyone I know. You won’t be disappointed!
