Sunshine Hypnosis Chicago

I can not begin to express my gratitude. Ray has helped not just me but also my son and other family members remember what matters in life.
I highly recommend a session of hypnosis anytime you are on a cross road in life.

Raymond is very talented, respectful, and professional. It was a pleasure working with him. He really helped me get refocused on my career goals at a time when I was really burnt out and life was getting in the way. He also gives self-​guided meditation exercises to do at home or at work. I highly recommend his services!

Whether you are looking to undergo hypnosis for emotional or spiritual healing, to get yourself back on your feet, first time, or any of his many other services I highly recommend him. He works wonders!
I went to Raymond at a time in my life that I felt like I was at a stand still. I was rarely leaving the house and seemed to be at odds with everyone in my life.
I was unsure of what to expect when I booked my first appointment since the only time I had really encountered hypnosis was in TV and movies. I went in nervous and fairly shy. Meeting Raymond was like meeting a long lost uncle. He was very attentive, caring, compassionate, and you can tell he is not only knowledgeable in his field but he really loves what he does.
The environment in his office is very warm and welcoming. And there is a pleasant lavender scent that is very soothing when you’re touching upon a sensitive topic you’d like to work on. I wasn’t sure how the hypnosis would work. And somehow within minutes of beginning I was very relaxed. Kind of the way you feel when you’re trying to get ready and relaxed for bed. When our first session was done I felt so wonderful! I can’t explain it but I felt so loved and serene. The next few sessions were no different. And I noticed the changes instantly. Whatever anger I had balled up in me that made me feel like I was at odds with the world has disappeared. I noticed after each session my anxieties were reduced and I feel I have a better grasp on the important things in my life.
I feel more like myself that I have in a long while.

Raymond saved my life.
I have a lot to say about Raymond Czarnecki, and I will narrate my first meeting with this transformational human being. I had lurked on his Unilocal page months before I ever scheduled an appointment, nervous about how open minded he would be, and slightly skeptical in his personal ability. I wasn’t sure what to expect, or what defined hypnotherapy. However, when I looked at his picture, I felt like this was the right place to go, and the glowing reviews on his old business page speak for themselves.
I called, and when he returned the call promptly, his warm voice and polite manner over the phone surprised and relaxed me. We set up an appointment for 4:15 on a Tuesday in September. He was very clear and understandable over the phone about directions, and transit. He is right next to the Paulina Brown Line stop, and there is plenty of parking for cars and bikes surrounding the location. I paid through his website beforehand, which was easy and convenient.
So, on Tuesday I showed up at 3409 N Paulina ready for anything. I walked straight up the step to the wooden door clearly marked 3409… and stared… confused…then looked to my left at the window, which I quickly realized was actually a door. And there sat Raymond calmly waiting to welcome me. For the newcomers, when you reach the front door, there is an office intercom buzzer on your righthand side. Simply scroll down to Sunshine Hypnosis, and Ray will buzz you in.
When he welcomed me into his office, I felt like I was being given a verbal hug. Think of the best customer service you’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing, and multiply that ten fold. Every single time I have stepped into Ray’s office the experience has been consistent, and wonderfully inviting. I have never once felt like a «customer». His office is scented faintly with lavender and I’m not sure what else but it smells divine. I was seated on the comfy chair across from him, and filled out a basic form with my name/​occupation/​etc., to give Raymond a starting point of who I am. Then for a few hours, I became the sole focus of this wonderful hypnotherapist. He turns his phone off, everything off, and for the time you spend together, he is 100% engaged in the interaction. After a couple hours, we went into hypnosis, which feels like a peaceful resting sensation with your eyes closed. You are always 100% in control, and you can stop at anytime. He is a gentle guider, not a puppet master. The session wound to a close, and he gave me some «homework», an affirmation tailored to my personal needs, and some certain recommended vitamins to help balance my moods and body. We scheduled our next session, and Raymond walked me to the door.
Since then, I have laughed joyously in his office, shared much, cried bitterly, shivered and shook, and felt every emotion, except for fear. I have always felt safe in Raymonds office.
This man saved my life. When I first came to Sunshine Hypnosis, I didn’t see the point in living, and quite frankly I didn’t want to play the game of life anymore. I needed a friend, someone to SEE ME. We live in a city of 2.7 some million people, but nobody understood the person I am inside. I needed that recognition and complete acceptance that I found in the chair across from Raymond Czarnecki. In our time together, I have learned things about myself I never knew, been opened to new perspectives, healed from past wounds, remembered things I’d forgotten, run him out of tissues, and I am still on the road to self discovery and creation. Ray lets you discover things about yourself for yourself, he won’t tell you who you are, and that is one of the joys of spending time with him. I have also done a past life regression with Ray, and learned things that have brought me much joy, and experienced a lot of understanding about the patterns I repeat in my life. He has guided self-​acceptance for much of my past, understanding of my present, and guidance for my future.
At no point will you ever be judged in Ray’s office, he accepts you, warts and all, lol.
I still have a lot of healing to do, but I could never imagine ever going to traditional therapy. Hypnotherapy combined with Raymonds incredible talents and kindness is like putting a jetpack on therapy. It ignites real change, and coming from someone who wanted to die: I am LIVING PROOF.

Raymond is an absolute pleasure to work with! I felt comfortable from the very beginning with him, even though I had never tried past life regression or had a formal hypnotherapy session. He was very easy to get a hold of and had a variety of times available for appointments with me. He even sent me some reading material (that specifically related to the past life regression) that I could read prior to our appointment to prepare myself. During the first visit, he explained the entire process in great detail and made sure I was comfortable with everything before we started. We even worked on a few things related to my behavior changes before going into the past life regression.
What I can say is that my work with Raymond has been life changing for me. It opened up a way of exploring my past — both within this lifetime or other past ones — that I hadn’t tried before and was so incredibly effective. Even if you’re a person who is skeptical about hypnosis, I think Raymond would be a great person to work with. He is understanding, caring, kind and thoughtful. Hypnosis is so much more than tricking your mind or training yourself to do something new. It is a process by which we are able to step outside ourselves in our existing «stuck» patterns and perhaps see them in a new way so that we can shift something we no longer want in our lives. I worked with Raymond 3 times in person, and have since moved out of Chicago, but I mention Raymond to friends often and suggest his services whenever I can. I would recommend — without hesitation — working with Raymond, especially if you are working on self growth or changing old habits that are no longer serving you. He also offers CDs of self hypnosis which you can use at home, that I found to be quite useful when I’m unable to meet with him in person.
