Gratifying Experience

My daughter and I are most delighted with both the experience and the results of our work together. The experience was gratifying because you are such gentle teacher: you lead me into understandings about myself that, having arrived, I wondered why it had taken me so long to get there and still do. What we discussed made so much sense and was so intuitive, yet it had been blocked. I respond now to certain things in better ways! Also, my daughter gets along now much better with her mother, I’m amazed, and she seems so much happier in general. I see a definite difference in her grades and in her study habits now, thanks to you. The hypnotherapy helped me get much deeper and the programs and trancework you used with me were just what I needed to help me understand things so much more clearly. They were also a reinforcement of our shared learnings. It was a technique for me for saying “understand and remember because I know these things are right and they are important to me.

I'll never forget how inspired I was even from my very first session with Nancy, with her kindness, caring, professionalism and real wisdom. She's just what "the doctor ordered". Nancy's method is solid and truly special. It just "sticks". I was so stressed out when my cancer doctor told me I probably had only a few more months that I felt entirely hopeless and depressed and I all I could think about was when i could have my next cigarette. The work Nancy did with me worked so amazingly well that I had to share it with you, especially if you are going through a similar thing or I'm sure if you have most any other issues. My money seemed superfluous to her. She seems like a truly nice, genuine, concerned person. I only went to Nancy 4 times in total during the two years of my cancer battle. I'm now in remission. I personally feel I'm finished with it. My doctor's amazed. He says he's seen it before in people he's sent to Nancy. I call Nancy my angel on my shoulder, I now realize through the work that we did that positivity, hope and Nancy were wildly effective and powerful. Without Nancy's help, I certainly would never have been able to get through it. She even got me to stop smoking right at my second session with her and I haven't smoked again to this day! I also know that from my first appt. with Nancy, I never had that agonizing pain again, ever and I haven't taken any of my pain medication either! Now with Nancy's help I'm not only pain free and cancer free, but also smoke free and I'm hopeful and wildly happy. My oncologist is the one who suggested I got to her and I'm so very very thankful I did.

Nancy, your style and Method changed my life completely!

I also couldn’t be more pleased because since we worked together I’ve lost 18 lbs. like magic and it is still staying off! You know, I live alone and eat out almost every night, and now I find myself eating only partial portions and not eating at all after dinner (or drinking!) and I really like it and it seems so easy and natural! I don’t even try, it’s just my natural way, now. My whole attitude toward alcohol, food and eating is so different now. I don’t feel as though I have to control myself at all as I did when I tried to stop drinking so many times before both on my own and with the other 2 hypnotists…. I’m waking up feeling so much better since I stopped drinking. Nancy, you’re fabulous! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Nancy was a Godsend for me

Since I went to see Nancy Donenfeld, I've so far lost 36 of the 40 pounds I plan to lose, and it amazingly, easily, and naturally just seemed to drop off. I'm not eating between meals anymore, and I'm also eating much less at each meal than I used to. I'm also into exercising now, something I was never into doing. This has become my natural normal style. I definitely had some breakthroughs with Nancy. I know now how my thinking sabotaged my efforts to be thin for almost my entire adult life. Now my thinking about food, my body and so on, is different and I know I'll never go back to the way I used to be, not even close. Nancy was a Godsend for me.

I saw Nancy at a time when my life was in shambles. I was unemployed for over a year and so in debt that I was behind 2 years on my loans and mortgage. It got to a point where I couldn’t afford to live normally anymore, at all. I was stuck in a huge hole. I was alone, I went from smoking 2 packs to 3 packs of cigarettes a day, I had bouts of nervousness - where I couldn’t sit still anymore (I looked like a crazy irritable person) and to top it off I became addicted to sleep meds - it got so bad that my body refused to respond to the effects of the sleep meds so I felt I needed to take more and more. Before giving up on myself, I did some thorough research, looking through and reading every review I could find in directories like Citysearch and even Superpages researching the top therapists, hypnotherapists, psychotherapists and lo and behold I came across Nancy Donenfeld. The only downside was the fact that I lived in West Virginia and I knew if I wanted someone outstanding I had to make the effort and travel to come see her. I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever. I planned a mini vacation with some money I could borrow and stayed at a cheap hotel for a weekend in order to get the help I needed to get back on track somehow. Let me tell you all out there - she is by far the best thing I have come across. Not only did I stop smoking entirely and cut my stress level and nightly amount of ambien down dramatically right away, but a little less than a month since I got back from seeing her, I was offered a full time position with a reputable company in West Virgina, where I’m from, with full benefits and very good pay. It’s like all these positive and amazing changes started to take place all at once. I would have never, in a million years thought my life would turn around so quickly in such a positive way. I’m now completely off the sleep meds and I’ve gained a tremendous amount of confidence in myself. One thing is for sure, I’ve learned to be the best money manager who’s ever walked the face of the earth and I’m a relaxed, good sleeper, non smoker at the same time!! I’m smiling an awful lot now and it’s been 2 years and I am debt free! Nancy you helped me see life from a different lens. You enabled me to do all this because of your integrity, your insight, your niceness, your skill and even your availability, (even on the weekend for me) and I cannot thank you enough for it! The best of the best! Yay!

I was diagnosed with depressio...

I was diagnosed with depression at the age of 17. The death of a very close friend of mine 5 years ago and stress at my job and my home accelerated my moroseness and depression. Lately I was always feeling tired and depressed. Waking up in the mornings for work was a total nightmare. My psychiatrist prescribed different drugs through the yrs. but none of them worked very well so then I went to Nancy who my psychiatrist advised. Within the first two sessions I saw considerable changes in my mental health and attitude. Her method enabled me to not only reduce the medication entirely, but to start to take control of my own life/moods and to feel good about myself and my life.... And it worked fast! What she said went really deep. She's been a blessing to me. I have experienced nothing but good with her and her methods. I recommend her to anyone who wants to be happier, much happier.

My entire experience with Nanc...

My entire experience with Nancy Donenfeld was excellent. I came in for major control issues. I was in really bad shape. Her expertise and delivery in the area of Psychotherapy has been invaluable to me (and I'm sure to anyone with other issues). Her office is like an oasis of beauty and calm. I loved going there. I gained a dramatic raise in my overall level of happiness. Also, my physical health has improved significantly because of my work with Nancy. She's helped me in so many areas. It truly has been a wonderful, fruitful experience to know and to work with this woman. In fact, I will be getting married in exactly 3 months time and going to Tahiti for my honeymoon. This all never could have happened without Nancy's awareness and style. My internist recommended I see her. I was skeptical. I'm not anymore. I'm very lucky that I found her. Try her, I think you'll be very very glad you did. With Nancy's help, so much in my life is changed for the best,, to say the least.

She's the Best!!

Nancy's the Best (and also the most cost saving)! My work with Nancy has been so effective. She made so much sense and worked so fast. I'm now exercising 3 times per week - happily (I'm totally amazed!). My eating habits seemed to have shifted, and I find myself never ravenous, or feeling like I'm depriving myself anymore. I'm actually losing weight easily now, since I saw Nancy for only 3 sessions, and I can't imagine ever putting the weight back on. I'm so happy I went to see her. The cost was totally worth it, and I truly feel the whole experience was a great deal and easily worth every penny. I have tried "everything" to lose weight before I went to see this kind, insightful woman. Before I saw Nancy, I had had very little success. Before her, I saw another hypnotist and a nutritionist, and I had taken various supplements and drugs for weight loss, tried special foods, and did lots of dieting and struggling. Now I feel no more of the former struggle and I seem to be doing the right things now and getting thinner and thinner. I just wish I would have seen Nancy years ago. If I had, I could have saved myself a lot of stress, deprivation, failure and money. She's definitely the best. I'm so happy!

Best decisions ever to lose weight through Hypnosis with Nancy

The session Nancy and I had was successful from the start. I���ve now lost 42 lbs. in six months and I still exercise 3 times a week. I���m at a good, healthy weight now for the first time in quite a few years. The things we discussed got me motivated and really had an impact on my life. I���ve worked with other hypnotists and a nutritionist before, to absolutely no avail after a very short time. The way Nancy works, and even the way she phrases things is completely different than anything I���ve read about or experienced before and I can (and could) totally understand why she said what she said and how she did it all. She actually taught me and now I���m totally in to it on my own-and it all seems so natural and I'm SUCCESSFUL! What was said and what we did in trance seems to have worked perfectly. Just what I needed. I know I���ll never gain the weight back, I love my new body, and now, for the first time in my life, it���s so easy and natural to keep it looking like this! (Actually, now my body is getting better and better looking-thanks to Nancy, I even still love to exercise now and I���m keeping this up!!!)
