I joined Positive Changes for weight loss. From the very first session I notice changes: I started drinking more water, I stopped drinking soft drinks and more aware of the foods ...

I went in for a consultation recently regarding a non-typical issue. Not surprisingly, I was geared to a program for a different (more common) issue. They start off with a ""tak...

This place is so helpful and the people 3/6/2012

This place is so helpful and the people there are so warm and friendly. Everything is done with each person's success in mind. The hypnosis process speaks to the unconscious mind - even if you are not aware of it. The hypnotists are committed to helping each client learn how to listen to their subconscious and change their behaviors for life. Unlike diet programs, Positive Changes teaches you a new lifestyle and way of being. Along the way, you not only begin eating better but you feel better about yourself which is a beautiful gift. The name ""Positive Changes"" is right on for what the program does as long as you follow the guidelines and do your part. more

I lost 4 dress sizes! 3/5/2012

Ever since going to Positive Changes I eat far less and I focus on doing things that I love to do instead of obsessing over what I was going to eat all the time. I don't even miss the foods or the oversized portions hat I used to eat! I am in control of the food not the other way around. Positive Changes has helped not only lose weight and keep it off, but the positive mindset has bled over into other areas of my life; I am better focused and I think more in a more positive way about my family, my work, my personal projects. Going to Positive Changes has definitely increased my quality of living. more

I recently finished the 9 week program 3/5/2012

I recently finished the 9 week program called ""Breakthrough"". It has changed my life with more self esteem, confidence and positive look to the future. It has been a very positive change in my multiple sclerosis as I am can with a positive outlook in coping with this ongoing disease. more

I did not care for losing $2400 for 3/5/2012

I did not care for losing $2400 for what felt like 30min naps 2x's a week. i lost about 10lbs in 9 months. Also something is fishy about how they pack up and move without little notice as they did in several places. I have read many reviews from all over the US and noticed they move thier businesses around alot,why do you think that is? more

Feb 22, 2012, Jane says........ 2/22/2012

I have been going to Positive Changes for a few months, and feel healthier than I have for years. I have a lot of weight to loose, but am 1/4 way there, and already feel so much better. I have been heavy and dieted my entire life, being thin only for a short time after dieting before I gained it back - plus more!. I finally realized that diets do not work, what I needed was a life style change with completely different attitudes about food and eating. I noticed the changes the first week.....I was drinking more water without thinking about it and desiring heathier foods, not my favorite chicken strips and fries!! I am confident the changes I am making will be for life, as this time I am changing my thinking, not just my actions....... more

I have never felt in better shape in my 2/18/2012

I have never felt in better shape in my life. I was over weight most of my life but Positive Changes helped me lose 110 lbs and keep it off for 3 years now. I tried all the usual diets in the past but always gained the weight back. PCH helped me learn to change my eating habits and got me started on an exercise program.I was skeptical at first but then I started noticing the behavior changes right away after just the first few sessions. I really started to look forward to my weekly sessions and it also really helped in overall relaxation and confidence. My family is thrilled and friends don't even recognize me now. I know I'll be able to keep the weight off for good now. The PCH program was well worth the cost. What better investment can you make than in your own health. Their motto says it all 'Yes, It Works!"". more

I started Positive Changes on January 2/9/2012

I started Positive Changes on January 5, and as of today, February 9, I have lost 22 lbs.

I am looking forward to the rest of the program.\r \r I believe if you just ""go for it"", it will work. Follow the program.\r \r Thank You Positive Changes, I am determined to keep the change! AND my positive attitude... more

I would rate Positive Changes Hypnosis 2/4/2012

I would rate Positive Changes Hypnosis very highly. The program gives you the tools you need to be successful at losing weight. It has not been a speedy process for me, but it works. I have lowered the amount of medications that I take for High Blood Pressure and Diabetes. My clothes are looser. I can breath better when climbing stairs and just living my daily routine. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I recommend Positive Changes Hypnosis to everyone. more

My name is Sue, and I have been with 1/11/2012

My name is Sue, and I have been with Positive Changes for several months now. I have battles with being over weight most of my adult life! Have tried a lot of wight loss programs, but can't keep it off. But with Positive changes, and their one-on-one help along with the classes, I have been able to get to the root of the problems, and correct the underlying problems! I've lost 40 lbs, been able to clean out several larger sizes out of my closet, and know I will be able to continue loosing my weight, and maintain it with what I have learned. My family is very pleased with what I've been able to accomplish, and see ""Positive Changes"" in me since starting the program. I highly encourage anyone with wight, stress, smokinging problems... you will not be dissappointed! more

Felt more like by a used car than trying to get hypnosis 12/1/2011

I've been checking out Hypnotists for quitting smoking. I've contact a few by email and they were able to give me a ballpark rate for their programs. This is not the case with Positive Changes. when you ask they tell you that no two people are the same and they custom tailor a program for you based on your needs. I thought that was pretty cool and went in for my free ""evaluation.""\r \r The interview lasted approximately and hour. I thought it was actually a pretty good interview. It gave me a ton of stuff to think about why I smoke, etc, etc. Then it came down to the end and I asked how much this was going to cost. That was when everything seemed to change. Gone was the pleasant caring woman who I had been speak to for the last 45 minutes. Just like that she switched into sales mode. ""Don't you care about your health?"" She then went into a litany of stuff I said and tried to use that against me to pressure me into buying their program. \r \r I have bought used cars before and this is what my experience with Positive Changes felt like. It was not like they were offering me a service. No, they were selling product. Sure I want to quit smoking and my life may very well depend on me quitting, But I cannot jusify spending $850.00 on 3 sessions of hypnotherapy. When I voiced this, the interviewer ""Carol"" asked me if I had a credit card I kept for emergencies that I could use for this.\r \r When I said no, she again went into a diatribe about how my health is more important than money. Of course, that is true. But I do not have $850.00 laying around.\r \r I would not recommend this place to anybody. You can find a good hypnotherapist for around $300.00.\r \r If you do go ask them about their success and relapse rates. They will tell you they do not track such things. Then they will hand you testimonies of past clients.\r \r However, as I sat waiting for my appointment I did overhear the ladies int he back of the office calling their supervisors and reporting on their sales call. Seems funny to me that they would track that but not whether their program actually works or not. \r \r I say avoid at all costs. I just wish I would have read the other reviews before I went. more

End of program - NOT EVEN CLOSE to weight loss promise! 9/27/2011

I am a highly educated teacher (graduate school adjunct) with a rich background in psychology. I do believe that the hypnosis methodology works, but after three months attending Positive Changes and using the program as prescribed, I am not even close to the weight loss guaranteed conveyed to me at the program intake! I was told today that I am done at Positive Changes and my last classes are scheduled. After this I will be shown the door unceremoniously, unless I pay another fee and join the 'alumni.' When I questioned the person who called about the Positive Changes guarantee and weight loss expectations, I was brushed off. I should have trusted my intuition when I came for the initial consultation and was literally told that I would not having trouble paying the amount required (TOO much!) if I was more committed to myself! There was coercion then and now I am left dangling in the wind. Very bad business practice in my humble opinion. I tried to rate Positive Changes as no stars, but Citysearch requires at least a star. more

Thanks for the info 9/7/2011

If there's any doubt that these people aren't properly trained then I'm out. I hate high pressure sales people as well so I won't be calling them after all. more

I know it works, but... 4/27/2011

I've used hypnosis before to stop smoking, so I know it works for me. I wanted to use it this time to help me address some bad eating habits. I called Positive Changes to schedule a 'free 30-minute' consultation and went in the next day. After an hour of emotional manipulation, and reviewing everything in my life that was wrong with my weight and my past approaches to dieting, I was ""accepted"" as a participant and asked to commit on the spot to a 9-month, $2100+ program. \r \r While the program is probably works well for many people, they way the consultant went about making the sale completely turned me off. I would rather have been convinced of the value by hearing specifics of the program, the training the hypnotists receive, the quality of the recorded materials, etc. A business that uses high-pressure sales tactics to secure clients is a red flag to me. If it's such a good product/service, it will be just as good tomorrow or next week or next month. \r \r In the end, hypnosis works as well as you practice it. I'm sure I can find a credentialed hypnotherapist to work with one-on-one equally successfully, and probably for much less money. more

Finally a program that works. 6/6/2010

I have been overweight since being a teenager and have spent a tremendous amount of money on numerous weight loss programs. I could intellectualize everything I needed to do to lose weight...exercise, healthy eating, etc...but could not consistently do so, no matter how much and how often I tried. I continued to get heavier and heavier and could see no end in sight. Finally, I decided to give it one more try...something that addressed my mind and the reasons for my obesity. From the start, this program has been different. There are no prescribed diets, weigh-ins, etc. that are a part of every other program. This just deals with the subconscious mind and what needs to happen to change the habits and patterns that have existed in the conscious mind for years. For me, it has worked. I have lost 130 pounds so far and am only 5 pounds away from my goal. I have gone from a size 26 to a size 10 and feel healthy and alive. I am 100% confident that this change is forever and look forward to the rest of my life. I no longer wake up and think ""it is another day and you are so fat."" I now wake up and am thankful that I am a thin and healthy person. The hypnotists at PCH have been very professional, good listeners and especially skilled at creating a program that is specific to my needs. I am so thankful. I also am pleased with the entire staff and program. They go out of their way to make me feel welcome and appreciated. Pros: It gets at real reasons for wt. gain Cons: None that I have experienced more

The Best Place To Lose 4/6/2010

My name is Frank Estrada. I live in Portland OR. I am 56 years old and have been a cab driver for 14 years. I also have been overweight for the last 25. Nine months ago I came to Positive Changes Hypnosis. Since then I have lost 65 pounds and 12 waist inches in the most amazing experience of my life. I have lost pounds before with different diets and they all worked, as long as I battled and stayed on the diet. But the weight always came back with extra pounds when I stopped dieting. With Positive Changes Hypnosis it has been a change on my life style through proper nutrition and exercise, a natural way of life without the cravings, something that it was hard for me to imagine before. Being a diabetic is now easy to properly control my sugar levels, blood pressure and cholesterol without any medications, and that is a big reward for me. Now I go through life feeling better about myself, staying active and enjoying the new me. My family and friends have been very supportive and amazed how I did it. I recommend Positive Changes Hypnosis because it works. The staff is very knowledgeable and professional, which has been essential to earn my trust to get the results that I am now enjoying. Pros: Life Changing more

It really does work -- absolutely amazing! 4/4/2010

I came to Positive Changes when I was at the end of my wits with my weight. I have tried EVERYTHING only to gain all of my weight back plus some. My evaluator was kind and sympathetic and I felt she really cared. I was offered a program for 9 months that has been the best thing I have ever done for myself. Was it expensive? Not when you look at how much I was spending on keeping myself overweight. I know this will be a lifetime change for me and I couldn't be happier! I sleep better, naturally make better food choices, and I have lost 50 pounds so far! My life has changed for the better and I am never looking back. I HIGHLY recommend Positive Changes Hypnosis if you are serious about making change. It really does work! Pros: Great staff, fabulous program! Cons: None I can think of more

Highly skeptical 3/11/2010

I went in for a consultation recently regarding a non-typical issue. Not surprisingly, I was geared to a program for a different (more common) issue. They start off with a ""take away"" - they make it clear that ""they"" choose who is a good client. I knew this was a ploy but went ahead. \r \r I've had plenty of sales experience in the past, and while they try to make it seem like a ""soft sell"", it's not. I felt extremely pressured to make a decision right then, and I usually need to think things over when it is something expensive (to me, $1377 for a 3 month program was expensive). \r \r They were willing to do a payment plan, but their ""no risk guarantee"" is a CROCK! You are not going to know at the end of one session if this will work or not. If they had said, ""try it for 2 weeks"" or 4 weeks and if you don't feel it is working, then you can get a refund, I would have done it. But one session does not make it ""no risk"". \r \r I have no doubt this works for some people. And, as the evaluator said, you do have to listen to the cds, etc, which makes sense. Hypnosis is rarely effective with just one session, so those who assume they just need to go in once and they'll be ""cured"", will of course not be happy.\r \r After my consultation, and reading the reviews here, I am certainly more skeptical than ever. I am especially bothered by the review of the person who claims to be a former employee. If their hypnotists are not well-trained and certified, then this company is not only committing fraud, they should be sued, as they have no business using people who have not been appropriately trained and certified. \r \r For anyone considering this program, be proactive and demand to see the hypnotist's credentials (ie, where they were trained, and proof of certification). If they are unwilling to show you that, then do NOT spend your money on this company.\r \r For me at this point, I am highly skeptical and choose to not spend $1377 on this. Pros: Staff was pleasant Cons: Cost more

Sad but true! 11/20/2009

I paid $2400 in Oregon and was promised a one-on-one counselor relationship (I inquired about this at my consultation). Although I have had some success (25lbs loss, water drinking, & better food choices), I was very disappointed to be passed from counselor to counselor. For some reason everyone leaves this branch. Do to class cancelations, schedule changes, and staff issues my 9 month program has taking me a year to complete. I honestly could not recommend this program to anyone and that saddens me as I had such positive energy and high hopes going into it. Thank you! more

108 lbs. gone 10/9/2009

Success is in the mind and soul and with the help of PC and the great staff I was able to lose my excess body that has been following me around for along time. I look forward to my Saturday visits with PC. I feel like family and know that I will be greeted with a smile and even hugs and always a friendly attitude from all that work there. If you are having trouble with the program they are always willing to listen and help in anyway to get you headed in the right direction. My personal experience has been wonderful. Everyone I have come into contact with has been VERY helpful and fun! I would give not only the program a very high rating, but the staff in the front office and the people behind the scenes a high rating. Now adays generousity is a major plus in a company and I have found that with the staff at PC. Thanks gang for all you have helped me with !!! Love ya! Debbi Pros: GREAT staff more
