I had an exceptional experience with Ilona Spaar, Clinical Hypnotherapist, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for effective, natural solutions for emotional or physical issues. I originally sought out hypnotherapy for IBS, after trying countless remedies, medications, and doctor visits with no real improvement. I wasn’t sure what to expect from hypnotherapy, but I had heard great things about how fast and effective it can be — and working with Ilona proved that true. Over the course of five sessions, Ilona guided me through deep subconscious healing, helping me uncover the root causes of my IBS symptoms. The experience felt almost like traveling through different chapters of my life — seeing myself as a child, a teenager, an adult, and even meeting my future self. It was insightful, emotional, and incredibly transformative. What surprised me the most is that hypnotherapy with Ilona didn’t just help my IBS — it also helped me improve my communication skills, especially the emotional blocks that used to stop me from expressing myself. That breakthrough alone has made a huge difference in my daily life. Ilona is warm, intuitive, and extremely professional. If you’re considering hypnotherapy for IBS, anxiety, emotional healing, communication issues, or personal development, I can’t recommend Ilona Spaar enough. Working with her has truly been life-changing. - Michaela Kyselova, 5 stars
I had my first hypnotherapy session with Ilona and it was incredible. At the beginning, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to fully relax or concentrate because you can hear cars outside her super cozy treatment room. But once we started, I dropped so deeply into the process that I couldn’t even hear the cars anymore. She truly guided me into a real state of hypnosis. During the session, I had a beautiful and emotional experience where I met my inner child and was able to give her the biggest hug. It was deeply healing and brought up a lot of emotion in a very safe and supportive way. Overall, it was a very powerful and healing experience, and I definitely recommend Ilona’s services! - Andrea Monteiro Hughes, 5 stars
Ilona was very kind and helpful. I went through a lot during our sessions, and she made me feel really comfortable and supported the whole time. She has a very calming and comforting presence.I also did somatic EMDR with her, and it was genuinely life changing it helped me understand my boundaries and feel more grounded. - Erika, 5 stars
Highly recommend Ilona, she's very patient, professional and thorough and develops a plan that really helps target the specific areas that you wish to work on. This approach has been really helpful for me and I've enjoyed the process very much. I'll definitely be back and would highly recommend anyone who is interested in exploring something that is different than a typical counselling session. - Jayelene Catala, 5 stars
I had a few sessions with Ilona and was amazed at the experience. I had a very good feeling when I met Ilona and decided to give hypnotherapy a try. Her guidance through the process is very calming and made me feel very relaxed. If you are thinking about trying hypnotherapy I highly recommend her. - Kyla McClure, 5 stars
