Sally Sacks

Sally Sacks, M.Ed.

Sally is a seasoned psychotherapist and a certified life coach, with 30 years of experience in counseling and coaching. Her motto is, use what works and have a large bag of tricks, and that she does. Sally has known that traditional therapy alone has its limitations, so has incorporated many unique and effective hands-on techniques into her practice.

“The unconscious mind holds our memories, thought patterns, beliefs and values, and we must change beliefs at the unconscious level.”

Hypnosis, energy therapy and NLP help reach the unconscious mind and promote profound and lasting change. Sally is trained in these therapies at the advanced level.

Sally’s articles and book can be found on many parenting websites. She authored the book” How to Raise the Next President,” and has been on radio shows promoting the book to include Sally Jesse Rafael radio show and others. She has lectured locally and nationally on sponsoring emotional development in children.

Widowed at age 44, with a 6- and 8-year-old, Sally knows the challenges parenting and single parenting presents. She has successfully raised her two children to become beautiful adults. Her goal is to help people become the best communicators possible to themselves and others, and to offer spiritual solutions to complex emotional challenges. Sally can be reached at 617-548-3694.

Charles Childress

Charles Childress, Certified Hypnotherapist

"Remove the Roadblocks to Positive Life Changes"

For the last 15 years, Charles has been a practicing Certified Hypnotherapist and life coach. He is a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists. Holds a Master’s Degree in Cultural Anthropology from the University of Oklahoma, and an international certification in Information and Technology Management. His hypnosis technique includes progressive relaxation and rapid induction, neurolinguistic programming (NLP), Timeline Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique™ (EFT), and Integral Eye Movement Therapy™ (IEMT).

In his current hypnotherapy practice, Charles specializes in helping clients with weight loss, attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD), stress reduction, self-esteem issues, PTSD, phobias, long-term anxiety, and smoking cessation (for either tobacco or marijuana). He also enjoys working with young athletes for sports performance enhancement (including golfers of all ages).

"My favorite approach with clients is to include life goal setting and coaching to achieve those goals. This is a large part of my practice that I enjoy very much. We break the goals down into small, easily do-able steps so that momentum is created by small but quick successes. This eliminates any chance of being overwhelmed by a goal no matter how ambitious it might be. Throughout this process, I include the use of hypnosis and other techniques in eliminating unconscious roadblocks that may hinder the person’s goal achievement. I find that young men in particular (teens and young adults) benefit greatly from this process, but it can work for most anyone who is motivated to achieve something they really want."
