About Aminah

Hi, my name is Aminah Henderson, and I’m a Certified Master Hypnotist born and based in Los Angeles, California. I specialize in using hypnosis to help people manage stress, ease anxiety, release weight, and break free from limiting beliefs and unhelpful habits. My work is all about supporting clients in creating real, lasting shifts in their mental and emotional well-being.

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Philander Smith College (now Philander Smith University) in Little Rock, Arkansas, in 2015. After graduating, I started having panic attacks—something I didn’t even realize I was dealing with at the time. That experience opened the door to my own healing journey and eventually led me to hypnosis.

During this challenging time, I was living with my cousin, John Sutton, a retired DEA agent, who introduced me to the benefits of hypnosis. He suggested I visit a hypnotist to help manage my panic attacks. Initially skeptical, I was intrigued by his personal story. As a DEA agent, John had been trained to use hypnosis in his work, and he also used self-hypnosis to overcome his own struggle with alcohol addiction and smoking—two challenges he hasn’t faced in over 20 years.

Inspired by his story, I decided to visit a well-known hypnotist in Little Rock, Penny Rea, based on my cousin’s recommendation. It was a transformative experience, and since then, I have not experienced a panic attack in over 10 years. In 2018, I faced another challenge when I was laid off from my job while still living in Arkansas. As I struggled with job rejections, I continued to reflect on the positive impact hypnosis had on my life. This led me to explore how I could use hypnosis not just for personal growth but to help others as well. I wanted to offer hypnosis for personal development, and I believed that this method could support individuals in overcoming their struggles.

After researching different schools, I enrolled at the Hypnosis Motivation Institute, where I graduated with honors in 2020, becoming a Certified Master Hypnotist. In addition to my certification, I earned specialized certifications in areas like smoking cessation, weight loss hypnosis, and helping clients overcome fears and phobias. What drives me is the impactful power of hypnosis. Having personally experienced its benefits, I’m deeply passionate about helping others overcome challenges like stress, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and limiting beliefs. 

I believe that lasting change comes from within, and hypnosis is a powerful tool for unlocking the mind’s full potential. My approach is rooted in trust, empathy, grace, and the belief that everyone has the ability to transform their life. My goal is to guide and support you with patience and understanding, helping you along your personal journey. I believe that hypnosis is a powerful tool for self-transformation, and while I’m here to guide you, it’s also a process that empowers you to take charge of your own healing and growth. My approach is a true partnership, where I provide the tools and support, but ultimately, you are the one who unlocks your potential.

Over the years, I’ve worked with many clients to help them overcome challenges such as anxiety, stress management, weight loss, smoking cessation, and more. By offering a personalized approach to hypnotherapy, I help individuals tap into their own inner resources and make lasting changes that improve their lives. My services are tailored to each individual; providing a supportive environment to help you achieve lasting change.
