Hypnosis Coaching – Change begins within.

Hypnosis coaching in Fichtenau-Wildenstein for people who have already tried many things—and finally want to take the next step toward real change.

Perhaps you’ve already undergone therapy. Read books. Had conversations. And yet, something inside you still feels unchanged. Let hypnosis help you access the part of you that makes change possible.

What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a natural state – not a loss of control

Hypnosis is a state of deep, focused attention. It’s a state you’re already familiar with—for example, when you’re completely absorbed in a book or when, during a long drive, you suddenly realize you’ve been driving “on autopilot.”

During hypnosis, your consciousness remains active. You hear, understand, and make your own decisions at all times.

The difference:

Your critical mind steps slightly into the background, making your subconscious more accessible. That’s exactly where many habits, reactions, and inner blocks lie.

Hypnosis makes it possible not only to understand these patterns, but also to change them.

What Hypnosis Is

What Hypnosis Is Not

Why Hypnosis Coaching Can Help When Talking Alone Isn’t Enough

Some issues run deeper than words can reach

Many people come to me after they’ve already tried a lot of things.

Not because they lack motivation. Not because they’re “not doing enough.” But because some issues don’t just show up in the mind—they can live deeper inside.

Hypnosis works where conversation sometimes falls short: in the subconscious.

  • Where habits take shape.
  • Where emotions stay rooted.
  • Where real change can begin.

Here’s How a Hypnosis Session Works

Many people are surprised by how calm and clear a hypnosis session is. Overview:

1. Initial Consultation

The initial consultation lasts about 30 to 60 minutes. You can share your concerns, ask questions, and explain your expectations. Together, we’ll clarify:

  • What would you like to change?
  • How long has this issue been going on?
  • What have you tried so far?
  • What would be different if the problem were solved?

This conversation is important—it helps you feel heard and brings clarity.

2. Induction of Hypnosis

You sit or lie down in a relaxed position. I guide you step by step into a state of deep relaxation so you can feel

  • calm,
  • pleasant,
  • focused,
  • and safe.

You remain responsive at all times.

3. Work with the subconscious

In this state, we work with inner images, feelings, and ideas so

  • old patterns can be recognized,
  • blockages released,
  • and new inner pathways established.

This happens at your own pace—not under pressure, but through inner collaboration.

4. Returning to the Waking State

At the end, I gently guide you back so you are awake, clear-headed, and oriented.

Many people report feeling calm, clearer, and newly aware afterward.

Who can benefit from hypnosis coaching

Hypnosis can be especially helpful for people who:

  • have already tried many things but feel stuck
  • suffer from anxiety or inner restlessness
  • want to break free from old patterns
  • want to develop more self-confidence
  • want to release emotional blocks
  • want to finally feel free again

I often see people who say, “I know so much—but I still feel trapped.”

Areas of Application –
When Hypnosis Is Especially Helpful

Hypnosis doesn’t work for everything, but it can help with many deeply ingrained habits, emotions, and physical reactions.

Hypnosis for Weight Loss

When diets and resolutions aren’t enough, a change in the subconscious, rather than fighting your own cravings, is needed.

Quitting Smoking with Hypnosis

When the will is there, but the urge to reach for a cigarette remains. Hypnosis works with reflexes, not discipline.

Hypnosis for Anxiety and Panic Attacks

For generalized anxiety, phobias, and panic attacks—address the root cause, not just the symptoms.

Hypnosis for Fear of Flying

When logical knowledge doesn’t help as the flight approaches. Hypnosis works with the physical reaction, not reason.

Hypnosis for Test Anxiety

When your mind knows what to do, but your body freezes up. Calm and clarity for the crucial moment.

Hypnosis for Greater Self-Confidence

When logical knowledge of your own worth isn’t enough. Change where the feeling begins.

Hypnosis for Sleep Disorders

When your mind won’t settle at night. Hypnosis helps restore balance to your inner system so you can sleep more easily.

Hypnosis for Stress and Exhaustion

When your nervous system won’t shut down. Find deeper calm and regulation to ease stress and exhaustion.

Child Hypnosis – a child-friendly form of hypnosis

Children are often naturally in a trance—when they’re playing, daydreaming, or listening. In collaboration with my colleague Perdita Schmidt, I offer child hypnosis: a child-friendly form of hypnosis for issues such as bedwetting, test anxiety, fears, sleep problems, or ADHD symptoms. For the child, the session feels like an exciting story in which they discover their own inner helpers for everyday life.

Hypnoparenting – When Parents Find Inner Peace

Sometimes the key to more peace in the family lies not with the child, but with the parents themselves. In collaboration with my colleague Perdita Schmidt, I offer Hypnoparenting: a program for parents struggling with stress, exhaustion, or guilt. Through hypnosis and self-hypnosis techniques, you’ll learn to respond more calmly—and in doing so, create a more peaceful family life without your child having to “do” anything.

Common Concerns — and Honest Answers.

What you might still be wondering

What if I can’t be hypnotized?

Most people can be hypnotized. It’s not about talent—it’s about willingness and trust.
That won’t happen. During hypnosis, your consciousness remains active—you hear, understand, and make your own decisions at all times. You can end the session at any time and retain control over everything that happens.
No. Under hypnosis, you only say and do what you would say and do while awake. Hypnosis doesn’t work against your will—it works only in cooperation with you.
We work at your pace. During the preliminary consultation, we’ll clarify what you want to work on—and what you don’t. If something unexpected comes up during the session, you decide whether and how we’ll address it. You’re safe at all times.
Hypnosis coaching is not psychotherapy and is not a substitute for medical treatment. Coaching focuses on specific issues and harnessing your inner resources. For severe mental health conditions, therapeutic treatment is the right choice—in such cases, I strongly recommend seeking appropriate support.
That depends on the issue. Some issues can be addressed in 1 to 3 sessions, while others require several sessions over a longer period. During the initial consultation, we’ll work together to assess what’s realistic.

What My Clients Say

The most honest answer to how i work comes from the people who have experienced it firsthand.

May 2026 – The hypnosis coaching with Ms. Smith-Hinz was a very intense yet trusting experience for me. Her calm, empathetic manner and high level of professionalism made it easy for me to truly engage with the process. I not only felt very well supported professionally, but also seen and taken seriously on a personal level. I’d especially like to highlight her ability to address my specific issues individually while creating a safe, supportive space for me. I can wholeheartedly recommend working with her.
Theresa Hurtado Martinez – Founder SHEWords
My hypnosis sessions with Susanne were more than successful! And this despite the fact that I had no prior experience with hypnosis before the first session and didn’t believe that anyone could actually help me with my personal challenge. After the third session, I was almost overwhelmed by how someone from the outside—someone outside your own mind—could plant an image or symbol in your mind that you could never have created on your own. A true symbol that you can always hold onto when the going gets tough, and you need to keep the momentum going. If you don’t have answers to the thousand questions swirling in your head, Susanne and her approach are exactly what you need.

If You’re Ready To Look Deeper.

How i work – and who it's for

As a hypnosis coach in Fichtenau-Wildenstein, I work with people who don’t want to address symptoms superficially—but are seeking real change. People who are ready to take a closer look. Not faster—but deeper.

My work combines:

  • well-established hypnosis methods
  • experience in addressing inner blocks
  • a clear, respectful view of the individual

I’m based in Fichtenau-Wildenstein in the Schwäbisch Hall district. I work throughout the region surrounding Crailsheim, Ellwangen, Ansbach, Dinkelsbühl, Aalen, and Feuchtwangen—and beyond, in Stuttgart, Nuremberg, Ulm, Heilbronn, and Würzburg. Sessions are available in person, hybrid, or online. The average duration of a hypnosis session is 60 to 90 minutes. Initial consultations can be scheduled within a few days; I respond to inquiries within 48 hours.

Not every path is the same. But change is possible.

Perhaps you’ve already tried many things. Perhaps you’ve also doubted whether anything can really change anymore. And perhaps right now is exactly the right moment to choose a new approach.

Here are four final assurances for you:

  • You can be reached at any time during hypnosis
  • You’ll remember everything
  • You can end the session at any time
  • Hypnosis doesn’t work against your will
