I have done hypnotherapy sessions with people all over the world; no matter where you are you can benefit from hypnotherapy. Norman is very kind, personable, and knowledgeable. I immediately started to feel much more calm and positive, I started sleeping better, and I actually woke up refreshed, positive, and happy.
I am so grateful to Norman, and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to try hypnotherapy, and seeks healing and empowerment in their lives. To open the door to infinite living! Connecting the dots to understand the mysterious messages from subconscious programming that keeps you stuck. Expanding your personal freedom through tapping into your inner spiritual power.

After my lifestyle made me sick and my illness changed the course of my life, I decided to find meaning in the experience and vowed to never again engage in the behaviors that led to my illness. After deep reflection and hard work - change is hard! - I did a deep dive into research that was off the conventional path.

Thank you Norman Plotkin. I have to say I went in for stress management and I didn't even need the hypnotherapy before I was feeling better. It was just an added bonus. You want to feel better about yourself, your life, your situation? This guy gives you the tools to get there. He puts things in perspective and that was just what I needed. Couldn't be more grateful.

The experience that I had with Norman was more then just life changing....
So I originally went to his practice for smoking cessation(17 yrs+ smoker) At first I I didn’t know what to expect or if was even for me. I honestly felt free from my addiction after the 3rd session, but I felt my experience was not yet complete. So with the help and guidance of Norman we starting tackling other areas of my life, and what a eye opening experience. I have never felt the power that was truly in me until Norman and untapped that potential.

I have been struggling with impulsive picking at my fingers and nails (to the point that they bleed) for years now. I came across an ad for Norman's hypnotherapy sessions and at this point it was my last option so I gave it a shot. Today I finished my third and what's supposed to be my final session and I'm feeling great! It's too soon to give my results on it but so far the picking has stopped tremendously from when I first met Norman. He is amazing at what he does, he's very kind and the sessions are very relaxing! He treats peoples problems and issues by digging deep

I just arrived home after my 1st appointment and my head is spinning...I can see that Norman knows inherently what to say and do. I am certain that I will be a non-smoker in the veryyy near future, it's what else is coming ip for me as a result of this hypnotherapy that both scares and excites me!!!

No option for 0 stars. I went to Mr Plotkin hoping to heal my trauma/mental health related issue. While in his office I made a partial payment for a 6 sessions plan which Mr Plotkin failed to email me the receipt for. I reschedule my first appointment with a non 24hr notice. The day of the rescheduled appointment Mr Plotkin send a text message 3 hrs before the appointment requesting to reschedule for the following week. By this time I had not received any receipt for my payment and no where in his website nor in person dis he explain any cancelation fees. The following week I changed my mind about

Norman has quickly become one of my favorite people to talk to. I love his energy and I just vibe with his personality. All this makes it much easier to relax and feel comfortable enough to really let myself feel the benefits of hypnosis. I have seen him only three times now, but plan on going back many more times. If you're looking for a true hypnotherapist, with no bulls^*% then he is your guy! Also, I just finished his book that I ordered on Amazon and was really impressed with his information and detailed explanation about hypnotherapy.

I bought a copy of Norman's book, Master Mind, Master Life from my Acupuncture's office. I was curious and went ahead and got it, just finished it. I actually really enjoyed reading it, it gave me a much better understanding of hypnotherapy and what it could be used for in a professional, non threatening manner. I am Christian and was fearful of this type of modality but I believe if you are comfortable with the person and trust their integrity and they understand your beliefs, you will be safe on working on improving yourself through this modality and working with Mr. Plotkin.

So, I had the pleasure of meeting Norman just this past week. I have to say... I was nothing but impressed! He was extremely personable, knowledgeable in the field, and committed to helping me. My first impression was curious. His office is in the heart of downtown Sacramento, and my appointment was after dark. Needless to say I was a little anxious upon a arrival. Oh, and you cannot park directly in front of the building- but it was close enough. Easy to find, and he was patiently waiting at the door upon arrival- to let me into the building. I had never experienced hypnotherapy, so I literally

I attended three sessions with Norm Plotkin. I am very very happy with his hypno therapy techniques and the outcome. I would recommend doing the three session package. I think you will pleased with your results.
Update: I recommended Norm Plotkin to a friend. After each session my friend called me to say how pleased she was with his insights. Norm has an ability to zero in on the origin of your issue and quickly explain how to face, solve and create a better outcome. I highly recommend him.

I would like to thank you Norman. You are very talented at what you do. I was very overwhelmed, edgy and had a lot of anxiety with what I had going on in my life. I did three sessions with Norman and was able to let go of things in the past that no longer serve me, lost the edginess and anxiety and am no longer overwhelmed.
I have been able to create healthy boundaries and many other things. When I got done with the three sessions I bought another package so that my son could have a few visits (he loved it) my daughter-in-law was able to go to a visit so she could get help doing her state exam

Norm has changed my life!! I have been dealing with debilitating chronic pain for about 15 years. It has gotten gradually worse and the last nine years have been especially bad. I decided about a year ago to find a better way than opioids or other prescription drugs to deal with the pain, depression, and fatigue. On advice from a friend, I started going to an acupuncturist and that really helped. It gave me energy and pain relief. I stopped missing days at work, but I was still tired and feeling like I was in this dark tunnel of depression. Most days after work and on weekends, I still stayed in

I had a great experience with hypnosis from Norm. I used hypnosis for smoking cessation. Norm was really committed to helping me ditch the habit. I had one session which worked very well but really wanted to solidify the work by doing and additional session. I even had to reschedule a few times and Norm was super patient with me. I recommend hypnosis with Norm for anyone that is committed to quitting smoking.

Working with Norman has been a profound experience. His professionalism is exceptional and has the skills to help with deep everlasting transformation. Norman authentically wants his clients to reach the results they need, I felt that with each session. He tunes into your pain to transform it into light for your highest good. I had felt the shift in consciousness after my first session. My 4 year old son even came up to me and said "mommy your voice has changed and I like that". Implying that my anxious ramblings have changed into a sea of calm words. It also altered my son's mood

I wanted to take the time to let people know about the truly transformative experience I had in 3 hypnotherapy sessions with Norman. I am a clinician, and I do psychotherapy with a variety of clients ranging from people with acute anxiety and depression, to survivors of severe trauma. I also suffer from anxiety, myself. Though I have had many years of therapy, ranging various modalities, I have continued to suffer from anxiety. I have gotten better over the years, but have still had problems dealing with my anxiety when confronted with personally stressful or fearful situations. Recently, I had

I had been a smoker for about two years before I met Norm. The past year had been about 15 cigarettes a day, and I was really starting to feel lousy (both physically and mentally). I knew I needed to stop, but I did not have a coherent game plan or strategy in place for how to do so. I may not have even had the motivation, as I always found a reason to delay quitting.
In Norm's first session, he told me he would change the way I rationalize my smoking behavior. Instead of finding a reason TO smoke, I would use my rational mind to fight the urge and see how the negative effects of smoking

I came to Norman based on the reviews here on Yelp, so I feel a duty to return with my experience, and really to warn others about who they are considering hiring. I will not talk much. I'll simply share Norman's own words and let you judge for yourself, whether this is someone you want as a practitioner of any kind, let alone someone who will have you under hypnosis.
I had my first session with Norman a few weeks ago. After the session I expressed my concerns that I didn't feel a shift toward what I wanted. This was his reply:

Phenomenal Hypnotherapist!! I experienced three sessions for me and one session for my child. The first one was ground-breaking in my online business. It helped me overcome inner block and I launched a highly successful an online summit. The second - was all about my relationship. The third about my parenting... Powerful!! Each of them was a breakthrough! My child was afraid of darkness at night and had trouble sleeping. He enjoyed the session so much. He didn't even notice he was in a state of hypnosis... It was fun for him... And - he is not afraid any more.

Norm did a great job in my session and I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to improve themselves in any way. I scheduled a session with Norman because I wanted to feel empowered in my career. Norman did a thorough assessment of me before doing any treatment, and that made me feel more comfortable to know that he was focusing on the quality of what he was doing and not skipping anything. When he started the hypnosis, I felt very relaxed, and as I listened to him talk me through the steps I was able to fall into a pretty deep state. It felt easy to become suggestible to the empowerment

Norm really makes giving his clients the best possible service his priority. He's so thorough and thoughtful in his care. He's clearly found his passion and he passes that along in his work.
Hypnotherapy can help with many, many different difficulties and I specifically recommend going to Norm. Honest, sincere, and with a deep desire to help people heal.

Norm has opened my eyes to an amazing alternative for pain management. I have always been into meditation, and natural healing but must admit was not sure how I felt about hypnotherapy. I suffer from fibromyalsia, and became pregnant with a very difficult pregnancy. When I found Norm he had no problem explaining to me the power of the mind and the ability to reprogram our mind behind the scenes. I have completed several sessions with Norm for hypnobirthing. These sessions have allowed me to enjoy pregnancy which was not the case before.
He is warm, inviting, and has a calming sense about him.
