Why Choose NoVA Hypnosis?
Tactical Precision Meets Compassionate Care.
Living in the high-pressure environment of the DC Metro area often demands more than just willpower; it requires a strategic upgrade to your mindset. At NoVA Hypnosis, we don’t do “magic tricks.” We use clinical hypnosis, NLP, and bio-energetic technology to help you break limits, conquer fears, and achieve peak performance.
We are not your typical wellness center. Founded by former U.S. Marine Corps officers, NoVA Hypnosis brings a level of discipline, strategy, and professionalism rarely found in this industry.
No "Woo-Woo"
We focus on grounded, evidence-based techniques like Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnotic conditioning.
Board Certified Hypnotists
Our practitioners are highly trained, certified, and experienced in handling complex behavioural changes.
In-Person & Online
In order to best support your individual needs, we offer both traditional in-person hypnosis, and online hypnosis services.
Customized Strategy
We don't read from a script. Every program begins with a strategic assessment to tailor the approach to your specific brain and goals.
How We Can Help You.
Comprehensive Hypnosis & Wellness Services for McLean & Beyond.
Stress & Anxiety
Quiet the Noise. Whether it is the pressure of the Beltway commute or high-stakes corporate demands, chronic stress degrades performance. We help shift your nervous system from “fight or flight” to “rest and digest,” giving you the tools to remain calm under pressure.
Fears & Phobias
Neutralize the Trigger. Don’t let an irrational fear dictate your life. From fear of flying to spiders or heights, we use systematic desensitization to neutralize the phobia at its root, allowing you to travel and live freely.
Smoking Cessation
The “HabitBreaker” System. Stop smoking naturally. We address the subconscious triggers that keep you hooked, helping you quit without the cravings, mood swings, or weight gain. Reclaim your health and break the chain.
Sports Performance
Train Your Brain Like an Elite Athlete. Physical skill is only half the battle. We work with competitors to visualize success, remove mental blocks, and enter the “flow state” on command. Ideal for golfers, runners, and competitive athletes.
Hypnosis for Weight Loss
Reprogram Your Relationship with Food. Stop the yo-yo dieting. We help you shift your mindset to enjoy healthy choices, stop emotional eating, and build sustainable habits without the constant struggle of “willpower.”
Fear of Public Speaking
Command the Room. Crucial for executives and leaders. We help you obliterate “imposter syndrome” and the physical symptoms of stage fright, allowing you to project authentic confidence during presentations and meetings.
Exam Stress & Test Anxiety
Focus When It Counts. Whether it is the Bar Exam, Medical Boards, or SATs, anxiety can freeze your recall. We teach your brain to access information calmly, turning test day into an opportunity to demonstrate your knowledge.
BioCharger
Advanced Health Optimization. Experience our touch-free platform that combines Light, Voltage, Frequencies, and PEMF. A perfect 15-minute “energy reset” to support sleep, focus, and recovery.
Other Hypnosis Services
Improve Your Life. Our hypnosis services have virtually unlimited use cases! From the listed services, to helping with behavioural changes, aiding in fertility & childbirth, and more! Need help? Reach out and see how hypnosis can help you.

Our Happy Clients!
We are incredibly grateful to have been able to help thousands of people find joy, peace, self-love, confidence, and so much more. Take a look at our many 5-Star Reviews.
I first came to Nova Hypnosis following a panic attack. I had never experienced anything like it, I was terrified. But, my healing process and ability to control my anxieties all started when I met Monica. I have since worked with Monica to achieve my professional aspirations, while managing the stressors that come with my career, my education and my relationships.
Monica is one of the best things that has happened to me and I am forever grateful for her support through the last few years and beyond.

Going to Monica at NoVA Hypnosis has been such a transformative and positive experience. I would recommend 10/10 to anyone! I consider it "modern day" therapy that truly works by addressing the root cause and developing coping mechanisms that are incredibly powerful. Monica is so warm and welcoming it is so easy to talk to her. Incredibly happy and grateful I found her, I have already referred multiple friends to her. Do not hesitate, absolutely worth every investment in yourself to go here. Thank you, Monica!

My experience with NOVA Hypnosis was great. I had a fear of flying for many years and Monica was able to help me confront that fear. After working with her for a short time I was able to fly from DC to Florida and back. This was the first flight in over 20 years that I was not incredibly anxious. Monica gave me several techniques to deal with the turbulence and my basic fear of flying in general. Monica was easy to work with I would recommend her to anyone.
