You’ve probably tried everything.

The bitter polish. The gloves. The rubber bands. The sheer willpower that lasted about three days. You’re not looking for judgment about any of that — you just want something that actually works this time.

You’re motivated. On a scale of 1 to 10, you’re at least a 9. That matters — hypnosis works with your own desire to change, not instead of it. The more you bring to the session, the better your results.

If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place.

Nail Biting

“I have been a nail biter for over 30 years. I had moments where I would let my nails grow for a special occasion but I would always bounce back. I’ve always been embarrassed by my nails and kept hiding them from everyone.

I came across Julia’s website, read great reviews and decided to give hypnosis a try as my last resort. The only regret I have — I wish I had done it sooner!! I had two sessions with Julia and I haven’t touched my nails since. Today I got my very first manicure in over 30 years and I couldn’t be more happy!!!

I highly recommend Julia, she’s a wonderful person to talk to and work with.”

Quitting Smoking

“Your techniques work well. You successfully hypnotized me into quitting smoking on November 17 and reinforced the idea a week later at a second session.

I haven’t had any cravings, desire to buy cigarettes or anything of that kind. It’s like waking up from a bad dream and happy to go on without smoking at all.

I would recommend Julia to anyone who wants to quit smoking. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate all your work.”

★★★★★

Hair Pulling

“I have had a lifelong hair-pulling disorder all my life. Many years ago, after many different attempts and methods of trying to stop, I was able to stop for a two year period using hypnosis. Unfortunately, I had a number of dear friends die within a short period of time and went back to hair-pulling. At that time the person I worked with using hypnosis had retired.

Fast forward 17 years and I was at a point of wanting to stop this behaviour once and for all. I went to Julia and stopped after the first treatment, and was supported with tapes to listen to, cards to use as visual touchpoints, and two follow-up hypnosis sessions. I have had three people, dear to me, die since my first appointment with Julia and I have had no desire to use hair-pulling as a stress reliever. I have not added other negative behaviours into my life to cope with stress.

I believe the method Julia uses is effective and provides a person with positive alternatives to the behaviour I wanted to stop. She is professional from start to finish and is easy to work with. I highly recommend her services to anyone who has tried other methods to stop negative coping behaviours.”

Fear of Heights/Falling

“I’m 64 yrs old, retired and have a hobby business of cutting trees down and trimming. I have an experienced climber (who is also a competitive climber) so seldom do my feet leave the ground. This partnership is great as I have a fear of heights and/or fear of falling.

Last April I was in Charlotte, N.C. at my partner’s competition when I was approached by a guy who organizes a competition outside Orlando Florida every January which is geared for 40 yr+ climbers. I always wanted to be able to climb but was held back by my fears. With a little support from my partner and wife, I opted to go.

I sought out Julia to help me get past my fears. With her help, I did attend the competition and left with having accomplished my goals. This feat was a personal milestone and I’m looking forward to next Jan.!!”

Weight Loss

“I am 58 years old and because of my love for beer, fast foods, snacks and anything else I craved, I allowed myself to reach 273 lbs. body weight with a size 45-inch waist. I am only 5 feet 5 inches tall so I felt as round as I am tall. I felt absolutely exhausted, terrible and disgusted with myself. I have high blood pressure, high cholesterol and there is a history of diabetes in my family. I had no energy or drive to do anything and would get winded drying off after a shower.

I decided to try something different to grasp that spark to get me going and underwent hypnosis with Julia. My goal is to lose 100 lbs. within a year based on one to two lbs. per week.

Since the hypnosis sessions, my life has been turned 180 degrees as I now eat properly without even thinking about it, I naturally turn to healthy foods and snacks and have no desire for junk or fast foods. I am also working out four times a week at the gym. Since starting the therapy I’ve lost twenty-five lbs., five inches off my waist and feel like a new person.

Having the hypnotherapy was the best money I’ve ever spent! No looking back as I move on to reach my goals.”

★★★★★

Self Improvement

“Julia is an absolute angel on earth sent to my life. With only two sessions, I’ve seen a lifetime worth of results. I never thought I could feel this way again, and I’ve learned so much about myself I never had perceived before. For whoever reads this, I truly recommend to give yourself a second chance to believe that you can feel good again, because change CAN happen for the good!”

★★★★★

Fear of Needles

“I have had a debilitating fear of needles for as long as I can remember. I have tried many times to get over it with no success. If anything it became worse as I got older. Finally I decided to try hypnosis. If I’m completely honest I wasn’t sure if it was going to work. At first I had trouble letting go and allowing myself to fall into a hypnotic state. After a few tries I had a break through. I couldn’t believe the emotions that came through after the session. Since then I have had 2 needles without any issue. This for me is a huge improvement considering I have passed out quite a few times in the past due to needles.”

★★★★★

Weight Loss

“I would like to share with you I am down 8 pounds!! Only 2 more to go! The hypnosis was awesome! I reach for healthier food choices and have had way less cravings for unhealthy foods. Thank you for your expertise and support! You are amazing!”

★★★★★

Procrastination

“I had an online session with Julia a few months ago. I found it extremely effective!! Julia was both professional and very knowledgeable in her field. She put me at ease right away and worked with my surroundings. I highly recommend trying a session with her.”

★★★★★

Nail Biting

“As an almost life-long nail-biter, I needed help… Since my session with Julia, my nails are beautiful and I am no longer self-conscious about my hands. Extra bonus — it’s helped with my confidence.”

★★★★★

Confidence

“My confidence has improved tremendously. I taught my first class last fall, something I had been avoiding for such a long time. I no longer have a fear of public speaking thanks to Julia.”

★★★★★

Sleep Issues

“After suffering from sleep issues for more than 5 years, I tried a variety of solutions. I had discussed the issue with my doctor, had taken meditation courses, used yoga and spent lots of money on useless over-the-counter products. Nothing was effective and I had really lost hope. I thought to give hypnosis a try but I was doubtful. I was so wrong! I met with Julia and immediately felt she would be successful in addressing my issues. She is caring and friendly but very professional. She followed up with me to learn if my progress was stable. I would recommend her and her services without hesitation. Thanks, Julia!”

★★★★★

Nail Biting

“I WAS a nail biter for 50 years! So difficult (impossible) to stop the habit however after only one hypnosis session… I have not had the urge. Amazing!!!! I highly recommend this method if you have the same habit — such a great experience… Gentle and relaxing. Julia is very accommodating with regard to appointment days/times. I had tried EVERY option available to try to quit but nothing worked until now. It’s been several weeks and the urge is completely gone and my nails are growing beautifully! Thank you, Julia!”

Most people are done in two sessions. The first one does the heavy lifting — by the end of it, most clients have already stopped. The second one, about a week later, locks it in and makes sure it sticks.

That’s why I offer two options:

One session — $75

A good place to start if you want to try it first. Some people are done after one. If you want a follow-up, you can always book it after.

Two sessions — $135

The way most people do it. You save $15, and you go in knowing you’ve got the follow-up already taken care of. Booking both upfront also means you’re committed — and that commitment matters.

Both options are in your local currency — Canadians pay in CAD, Americans in USD.

I work online, keep my overhead low, and believe that getting support shouldn’t come with a premium price tag. Most hypnosis sessions cost $150 or more — for one. This is my way of making sure money isn’t the thing standing between you and hands you’re actually proud of.

A note on who I work with: Hypnosis is safe for most people, but I choose not to take clients with certain health conditions. Please don’t book if you have epilepsy, a heart condition (including past heart attack, pacemaker, or heart surgery), a mental health condition such as Borderline Personality Disorder, Schizophrenia, or Bipolar Disorder, or a concussion you haven’t been cleared from. Not sure if this applies to you? Check with your doctor before booking.

You know you want to stop. So why is it so hard?

Nail biting usually isn’t about your nails. It’s a habit that lives in your subconscious — often formed in childhood, often tied to stress or boredom or moments when you just need something to do with your hands. Your conscious mind wants to stop, but your subconscious keeps running the old program.

That’s where hypnosis comes in.

Hypnosis is a state of focused relaxation — not sleep, not unconsciousness, just a calm, inward focus where the critical, analytical part of your mind quiets down. You’ve probably been in this state before without realizing it: that absorbed feeling when you’re driving a familiar route and arrive without remembering the journey, or when you’re so caught up in a book you don’t hear someone calling your name.

In that state, your subconscious becomes receptive. Instead of the usual pushback — I’ve always done this, this is just who I am — it’s open to new ideas. That’s when we go in and replace the old habit with something better: new automatic responses to the triggers that used to send your hands to your mouth.

You’re aware the whole time. You’re in control the whole time. You simply leave with a mind that’s been updated — one where the urge to bite has lost its grip.

My name is Julia Wooster. I’ve been a hypnotist since 2013 and am a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists.

I found hypnosis because I needed it myself. I’d been biting my nails my whole life and nothing worked — not the bitter polish, not the constant reminders, not the promises I made to myself before every special occasion. Then I tried hypnosis, and it stopped. That’s the reason I do this work.

Nail biting is the challenge closest to my heart. I know the embarrassment of hiding your hands in photos. I know what it’s like to finally let your nails grow a little, then find yourself back at square one. And I know how it feels when something finally works.

I’m happy to help with other challenges too — smoking, sleep, fears, confidence — and I’ve had wonderful results across all of them. But if you’re a nail biter, know that this one is personal for me. You’re not just a client. You’re the reason I started doing this.

I’m located in London, Ontario however, the Internet allows me to help you whereever you are.
