## Is Hypnosis Right for You?

Hypnosis can be particularly effective for:

- General anxiety

- Social anxiety

- Performance anxiety

- Panic attacks

- Stress-related symptoms

However, it's important to work with qualified professionals and maintain any existing medical treatment plans. Hypnosis works best as part of a comprehensive approach to mental health.
