CERTIFIED HYPNOTIST
Hello! I am Dan Perez
I am a Houston-based hypnotist and director of Hypnosis Works! I am a native Texan, educated at the University of Houston, and certified as a medical hypnotist by one of the leading medical hypnotists (Melissa Roth) in the U.S. I am also certified to teach and certify other hypnotists. I’ve also done continuing education with several of the top hypnotists in the U.S. and Europe. Recently I was certified as a transformative life coach, using NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and other powerful methods to help my clients achieve ongoing excellence in their lives.
In 30 years of practicing hypnosis, I have worked with several hundred clients from all walks of life, which has provided me with a deep insight and practical view of the problems people face in their professional and personal lives. My approach combines education, skill-building and powerful hypnosis to create rapid positive change for my clients. I can help you with a variety of problems including getting relief from anxiety and depression, releasing phobias and fears, smoking cessation, weight loss or any other issue that is affecting your life in a negative way.
When it comes to coaching, a skilled life coach incorporating Neuro-Linguistic Programming techniques can help clients reshape limiting thought patterns and behaviors into more empowering ones. By utilizing NLP methods like reframing, anchoring, and modeling successful behaviors, coaches guide clients to identify and leverage their peak performance states. These evidence-based approaches enable clients to better understand their internal dialogue, develop more resourceful emotional states, and create lasting positive changes. Through consistent application of NLP principles, clients often experience enhanced self-awareness, clearer goal achievement, and improved communication patterns that support their ongoing personal and professional development. The coach’s expertise in NLP allows them to customize interventions that align with each client’s unique needs and aspirations, creating a foundation for sustained excellence.
People often tell me that hypnosis is a last resort, and that they have tried nearly everything else without getting the results they seek. The good news is that in choosing hypnosis, you have chosen a highly effective way to get to the root of your problem, make lasting changes and leave it behind. You can form new, better habits and cultivate a positive mindset, and even gain insights into how your mind actually works. Choosing hypnosis is choosing success!

TESTIMONIALS
What My Clients Say
“I went to see Dan at Hypnosis Works! to see if I could get some relief from my migraines and anxiety. I had had a migraine for the whole month of June. After 2 sessions with Dan, I have yet to have another headache of any kind. He helped me with anxiety as well.”
Alyse Makarewicz
“I was highly skeptical, regarding hypnotism as a combination of showmanship, trickery, and outright lies. My friend Jennifer suffered from debilitating migraines once or twice a month. Drugs didn’t seem to help much. She tried hypnotism with Dan. After one session, Jennifer has not has a migraine since.
When my precious granddaughter began to wake the entire house night after night, screaming from nightmares, we were very concerned. It was hard to trust my beloved girl to a hypnotist, but we asked Dan to see if he could help. He had one session with her, in which they crafted the Magic Wand named ‘Nightmare Begone.’ There have been no more nightmares.
I can honestly say that Dan has made a believer out of me and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. He is especially good with children . . . and parents, too!”

Sue Jurgens
“Dan hypnotized me for increased confidence, and the hypnosis helped me out a great deal. Now I can go into important decision-making situations with a more rational mind. I am also now easily able to put aside negativity from others. The end result here is that I am more at peace with myself and it’s a good feeling.”
Mary Ball
“I wanted to send a quick thank you to Dan Perez at Hypnosis Works. A little more than a week ago, I met Dan about his weight loss program and decided to give it a try. Despite Dan’s modest and realistic goals for someone like me who gets very little exercise, I have already lost 6 pounds. HYPNOSIS WORKS.”
Jarrod Aden
“Dan was patient and engaging with our young son, who is needing some help growing out of bed wetting. Not only did our son enjoy the session (and looks forward to seeing Dan again), but we saw a marked improvement after just the one session. Dan has an obvious gift for working with people — young or old — and helping them find ways to control their own subconscious mind. Highly recommended!”
Michael Tucker
“I went to Dan for help with weight loss. I tried a lot of other programs before coming to Dan, but nothing seemed to work. Honestly, I tried hypnosis on a whim – a last ditch effort to lose the weight. Well, it worked! I write this testimonial nearly 30 pounds lighter from when I first met Dan. It’s all thanks to his help and his program, which consists of two in-person sessions and recordings to listen to on a daily basis. Because of Dan, I no longer binge eat and I’m very conscious as to what I eat and how much I eat. Hypnosis Works has been a wonderful experience and I can truly say that it 100% works. In fact, it may even be too effective! Before Dan, I was eating probably 10 mini chocolate bars on almost a daily basis. I wanted to kick this love for chocolate for good, and with Dan’s help, I have not touched chocolate in the past 7 months! In fact, every time I think of chocolate, I CRINGE. Yes, I’m telling you that hypnosis is THAT effective!”

“Dan Perez is a lifesaver and wonderful at what he does. The reason I went to see Dan Perez was because I was very depressed. In July we found out my son had stage 4 cancer. At this time he is holding his own. My husband passed away in August of this year. In October my friend I have known for years passed away, than in November my dear daughter in law, whose husband has cancer, passed. It was so much to take in. When I would go over to my sons house I would feel tightness in my chest and felt so sad.
When I went to visit my sister in law in Houston, she had gone to see Dan Perez and had a very good experience. So I went to him and had a GREAT experience. I am smiling now. I just came home from seeing my son and I had a GREAT visit and I felt so good. I would feel very comfortable referring anyone to him that needs help on any problem.

I will be using Dan again to help with other issues. I only wish I lived in Houston. Dan has helped me so much and I want to thank him. He cares for people and wants to help them.”
Natalie Baustert
“Today has been the worst day of back pain I’ve had in four months. I was stupid enough to move a huge desk by myself. I went to the chiropractor, but also called my amazing hypnotist friend Dan Perez, who helped me with some pain management techniques over the phone. He is wonderful, and I highly recommend him to anyone who lives with chronic pain. Please keep him in mind when you are in pain, want to lose weight, quit smoking, or any other number of issues you may need help with.”
Jess Hankamer
“I found Dan Perez because of compulsive teeth licking, but I saw on his website that he mentioned he could help with anxiety. I suffered from severe diagnosed Generalized Anxiety Disorder for over 20 years. Since seeing Dan Perez, my anxiety has decreased drastically and I am no longer licking my teeth. I feel great!
I spent 20 years in and out of therapy (including three years of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). I took a variety of prescription drugs. Hypnosis is the ONLY thing that has worked for me. I’m very impressed with the results. Hypnosis has worked very rapidly for me, and Dan seems to be able to shift his sessions to help meet my needs. I prefer going into hypnosis slowly–Dan was very accommodating.
Dan’s hypnosis sessions exceeded my expectations, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services to anyone.”
Sophie R.
“Hypnosis with Dan Perez is giving me the tools I need to handle making a drastic change in myself. I’m becoming the person I’ve wanted to be for so long, but lacked the direction and understanding to know how. To be able to shake myself free from limitations I had placed on myself and take control of my own emotions is incredibly liberating. I predict that 2015 will be a year of great improvement for me on many levels. Not just in attitude and personality, but in my health, my career, and all other aspects of my life. It’s time to stay the course, buckle down, and make greatness happen.”
Jacob Lockyer
“I was impressed from merely the first two sessions at how much Dan wanted to help me improve myself. He immediately offered not only the expected professional courtesies but a profound compassion that I can only liken to a long-time friend. I am excited about what the future holds and have already begun to employ the techniques and tools that Dan has shared.”
Tasha D.
“Before we started our sessions, I told Dan I thought I would be very easy to hypnotize but I was skeptical about the notion of helping allergies with hypnosis. I am very happy to say, I was wrong. I’ve had two Skype sessions with Dan, plus I have been listening to his recordings every day for the past month. Skype works well for hypnosis. The online sessions allowed me to be comfy in a recliner chair in my living room while being hypnotized. His voice is soothing and relaxing. I’ve learned to breathe better and am backing off a little bit on the drugs. I can work in my yard, now, without having dreadful sneezing fits. The problems I used to have are becoming far less frequent. I’m really happy with the results. As a plus the recordings he sent me are very relaxing and I sleep much better than I did before.”
Ellen Douras, Singer/Songwriter
“I was nervous about hypnosis, scared about my perceived lack of control. Dan however put me right at ease. Being hypnotized is physically and mentally relaxing I found out. In fact, my first hypnosis session was the best I’d felt after my motorcycle accident. Dan also taught me pain management skills I can use myself, and I still do. He is a caring guy, and I recommend him highly.”
Jon Van Nort
“Dan gave me tools and techniques to help manage pain for childbirth, because I wanted to do it naturally without pain meds. However due to blood pressure complications I ended up having an emergency c-section. I was scared to death of getting a needle in my spine (epidural). But my husband helped walk me through what we had learned from Dan and helped keep me calm which was also good for my blood pressure. My BP went so high that it was off the charts literally and everyone was afraid I was going to have a stroke and go into a coma, so anything that helped keep me calm was life saving for me and baby. Now we are both doing wonderful and healthy!”
Melissa Savage
“I started doing the weight loss by hypnosis with Dan Perez just before Christmas. In just the first 3 weeks I had lost 9 pounds. My first goal was to lose 20 pounds by June. I met that goal by the end of April! I’ve been trying to hold off buying new clothes so I don’t have to keep buying them but pretty soon everything I own will be much too big so I’ll have to break down and do. But its a good problem to have. Now I’m on my way to losing my next 20 pounds by September. Using hypnosis I have no doubt I will meet that and make my ultimate goal. Thanks Dan!”
Veronica Costa Smith
“I have suffered from social anxiety and a fear of public speaking for years now, and was tired of letting it control my life. I finally decided to do something about it when I had a job interview coming up and was a nervous wreck about it. I called Dan and he agreed to meet with me the very next day. I am so excited to say that the hypnosis worked and I went into the interview feeling calm, collected, and entirely in control of how the interview would go. I was offered the job a day later. I am so grateful to Dan for helping me overcome my anxiety. I highly recommend him!”
Lauri
“I went to a very terrible place in my mind these last few weeks. Everything was wrong. Nothing was right. I couldn’t break the cycle…
I was smiling all day today. The seeds of positivity have been planted. I just needed the right tool. If you have never tried hypnotherapy, I highly recommend it. Thank you Dan Perez. You are an awesome friend, and a great hypnotist. I really admire your positivity, and I am confident now with your help, I will have far more better days then bad days. I found myself able to cope with the idea, of forgiving, and moving on. That was something I didn’t think I could do before. Its only day one, but there will be many many more to follow.”

“Smoking was part of my life for 8 years. Within those years, I have always tried quitting but always end up smoking again. I have used different over- the-counter methods, even thought about getting prescribed with those medications for tobacco users. My family and boyfriend never failed to encourage me to stop smoking. I hear them and appreciate their concern, but deep inside I had almost given up on myself.
My boyfriend met Dan and found he practices hypnosis to help people quit smoking. As my boyfriend ran this information by me, I was nonchalant about it because I was never a believer. I have only seen this type of stuff on TV, but never in real life. Anxious to kick the habit, I set up a session with an open mind and hopeful results. !!! tah-dah!!! It has been since March 2012 since the last time I smoked or even touched a cigarette. The sessions were great; though I was petrified going in, he made feel comfortable and at ease the whole entire time… and my boyfriend was also able to sit there with me. It has been such a huge change in my life. I do not regret it and will definitely recommended Dan to anyone who is ready to change their life.”

“I heard Dan speak at a luncheon and saw a demonstration of him hypotizing someone. I was convinced (after years of being skeptical of hypnosis) that he was the real deal.
I called and set an appt to help me get over my fear of cats. Dan met with me that same day! And right after the session, I went to my neighbor’s house and sat in her living room calmly while her cat walked around. Before the session, I would not even enter her home! Success! This fear does not paralyze me anymore! Even seeing the cat pics on Facebook doesn’t give me the eeby-geebies anymore! I’m looking forward to running across a cat in the neighborhood, just because I know I will not be afraid! Never, never did I ever feel like looking forward to seeing a cat!
This quick session showed me the power we all possess inside that rules our perception of life. I can’t wait for our next session–I asked Dan to help me with my migraines! I feel like I’m a couple of sessions away from being able TO FLY! Ok, I know that’s not possible, but that is how empowered and happy I am feeling about life! THANK YOU DAN!”

Audrey
“I wanted Dan to help me with chonic pain, and after just one session I was already feeling relief in my knee. It took a few more sessions to get where I had the comfort and mobility I wanted. I was very happy with the results, and it has helped with doing my job. Dan is very conscientious and loves helping people. I highly recommend Dan and his services.”
Lauren Lareau
“I have suffered from general anxiety and panic attacks for years. After attending one of Dan’s hypnosis shows, I decided I wanted to try some one-on-one therapy. Dan hypnotized me and allowed me to review what is causing my issue. He was able to teach me how to better control my anxiety. I now have tools that enable me to push past my panic attacks. I feel much better. Dan has helped me to control the anxiety that would cause me panic attacks. For this I am so grateful.”
Clint
“I’d been absolutely petrified of clowns since childhood. Even seeing pictures of clowns would cause me to have crippling panic attacks and vivid nightmares. After the hypnosis, I tried looking at pictures of Pennywise the Clown, one of the original sources of my fear, and I was completely calm and relaxed. I was even able to laugh at many of the pictures – something I never thought I’d be able to do in a million years. Dan is a miracle worker, and you’ll be amazed at how much just one of his sessions will help you.”
Kaitlynn Sheffield
“Dan was very professional and helped me out with my roach phobia. I had a great fear of roaches and he helped me step by step. He also offered to do a follow up if it didn’t work. Well it did and it was wonderful. I am now not afraid to walk by those big flying roaches anymore. I will be using him in the future to address other issues. Big Thanks to Dan Perez!”
Tiffani Aswad
“I had been wanting to stop smoking for a while for a number of reasons, and my boyfriend suggested I see Dan. He was professional and caring in his approach to hypnosis and he explained everything very clearly for me. I didn’t think that anyone could stop smoking after only two hypnosis sessions but I was amazed to find out you can! After the sessions I really did become a nonsmoker, and Dan gave me tools to avoid any cravings that might come up. If you want to stop smoking, this is the way to go.”
Phoung Truong
“I came to Dan Perez for help in losing weight. I had not been losing any despite a strict diet. We sat down and talked for 30-40 min as he introduced me on the methods he employed. We discussed my goals and were there any stressors in my life that could be preventing me from my weight loss. After a quick history, he decided that giving me a way to handle the stress was as important as the weight loss and would help me to lose. He said that I would probably require some additional meetings but that was part of the program. He put me under and I tell you what , I gave answers to his questions that I would not have given myself! I left feeling full of energy and very much in a positive mood. Over the next few weeks, before our planned next session, I got a tremendous amount of work done, things that had been on a back burner for months got taken care of. People at work noticed a change in my confidence and overall demeanor. I started an exercise program and am still with it. Our second meeting was quicker and focused and I again left feeling very positive.

Dan even hypnotized me once and instantly got rid of a headache. I highly recommend Dan’s hypnosis!”
Mary Ball
“Dan’s hypnosis helped me when I was feeling very down after my girlfriend broke up with me. He agreed to see me on short notice because I had a family vacation in a few days and I wanted to be able to enjoy it. The change was like night and day and I really was able to enjoy my vacation and have felt much better since then.”
Kyle Kaufman
“While studying for the seemingly formidable GRE, I found that trifling insecurities were standing in my way. But after just one session with Dan, I enjoyed a significant surge of confidence in my math skills. Problems that would have overwhelmed me two weeks before could be taken in stride. What’s more, I actually began to enjoy math for the first time in my life! When I finally took the GRE today, I scored higher in math than I did on the verbal–I do think that the math confidence-boosting session we did months ago definitely came into play when I was sitting at that computer today. And thanks again (a million times over) for the terrific sessions!”
Elayne Barlow
“Recently I had been plagued by anxiety and it was affecting my day-to-day life, and becoming harder and harder to deal with. After my first session with Dan, I could already feel the benefits. With continued sessions with Dan, I found that my anxiety was gone. Things that would previously have sent me into a full-blown anxiety attack now seemed insignificant to me. Dan even taught me a way to laugh at my troubles and that felt great. It has now been weeks since my last anxiety attack and my life is much more stress-free. Thank you so much for helping me with this, and you have a loyal customer for life!”
Deven Bynum
“The first time I remember being afraid of snakes. I was about 11 years old, when a friend picked up a water moccasin and I saw its fangs. From then on, I lived in constant fear that a snake would bite me. Whether I was in the middle of the concrete jungle downtown or in my back yard, I was always checking for a snake. I was making sure one wasn’t going to sneak up and get me. Several times through out my teenage years I would experience real encounters with snakes that only reaffirmed my snake phobia. My fear would paralyze me. I’d be afraid to move, crying because of snakes that weren’t even around me; but in my mind, they were everywhere.”
