Meet Jenn Levin

Certified Hypnotherapist in Los Angeles

I’m Jenn Levin, a Certified Hypnotherapist trained at HMI College of Hypnotherapy with over a decade of experience helping people strengthen their self confidence and overcome limiting beliefs. Before becoming a hypnotherapist, I worked as a producer on The Doctors TV show, where I helped guests feel calm and confident on camera. Now, I use hypnotherapy to help clients improve their confidence levels in everyday life—whether at work, socially, or simply in how they feel about themselves.

My approach combines hypnotic suggestions, guided imagery, and NLP to reshape unhelpful thought patterns and ease the anxiety that so often holds people back. Many of my clients discover that the inner confidence they’ve been searching for has been blocked for a long time—they just need the right tools to unlock it.

 

My approach to hypnosis for self-esteem

When I work with clients on self-esteem and self confidence, we start by looking beneath the surface. So much of how we feel about ourselves today comes from early childhood programming and old messages we absorbed without even realizing it. I like to call these “BS Beliefs”—because they’re simply not true, yet they quietly run the show. Examples might sound like: “I am not worthy of love,” “Everyone else’s needs are more important than mine,” or “I am stupid.” These beliefs may have come from parents who didn’t have the tools to raise confident children, or from your own trauma, teachers, society, or environment.

My approach is about uncovering those old thought patterns, then gently challenging and rewriting them into healthier forms of self belief. Through carefully designed hypnotic suggestions, I help your subconscious mind let go of limiting programming and embrace new, uplifting messages. Depending on your settings—the unique experiences, memories, and conditioning that shaped you—we’ll create suggestions that truly resonate. This allows you to develop and improve new ways of thinking and feeling that boost your self-worth.

Examples of BS Beliefs and Their Replacements:

  • “I am not worthy of love”“I deserve love and respect.”

  • “Everyone else’s needs are more important than mine”“My needs matter, and I can honor them.”

  • “I am stupid”“I am capable, resourceful, and always learning.”

This process doesn’t just create surface-level change—it helps you rebuild confidence from a deep subconscious level, so you can show up in the world with clarity and ease.

Common reasons why people start hypnosis for confidence

Confidence for Dating

Dating often brings up fear of rejection, overthinking, or worrying about not being “enough.” Hypnosis helps quiet negative thought patterns and build stronger self belief, so you can feel more relaxed and authentic. With hypnosis many clients find they enjoy dating more and connect with others naturally, without the weight of fear holding them back.

Confidence for Creative Professionals

Many of my clients in the entertainment industry use hypnosis to build confidence in high-pressure situations. For producers and screenwriters, that might mean pitching ideas with clarity and conviction. For actors, it often means walking into an audition feeling calm, centered, and ready to perform at their best. Hypnosis for auditions and hypnosis for creative professionals can make all the difference in helping talent shine when it matters most.

Reducing Social Anxiety

For some, anxiety in social settings makes it difficult to connect with others or feel comfortable in groups. Hypnosis helps ease these anxious responses so you can approach social situations with more ease, authenticity, and confidence. With practice, clients notice they can relax into the moment instead of being held back by fear.

Overcoming Self-Doubt

Many people come to hypnotherapy because constant self-doubt keeps them from pursuing opportunities or speaking up for themselves. Hypnosis helps quiet the inner critic and replace old, limiting thought patterns with stronger, more empowering beliefs. This can enhance the quality of both your personal and professional life by allowing you to move forward without hesitation.

Public Speaking and Performance

Fear of public speaking, presentations, or being in the spotlight is one of the most common challenges clients want to overcome. With hypnosis, you can retrain your subconscious mind to feel calm, capable, and in control—transforming fear into confidence. Clients often tell me the difference feels like night and day once their mindset has shifted.

Building Self-Esteem

Low self-esteem often comes from years of negative messaging or “BS Beliefs” picked up early in life. These beliefs are often influenced by childhood, family, or social environments. Hypnosis helps identify and reframe those outdated beliefs, creating a deeper sense of self-worth that supports lasting change and inner peace.

 

When another practice might be a better fit for your needs

Medical Treatment or Prescriptions

I’m not a doctor and cannot prescribe medications. If your confidence challenges are linked to a medical condition or you’re seeking prescription support, working with your physician or a licensed psychiatrist may be the right next step. You can find more resources through the American Psychiatric Association.

Underlying Mental Health Conditions

If your confidence struggles stem from an underlying mental health diagnosis—such as severe depression, bipolar disorder, or psychosis—it’s important to seek treatment with a licensed therapist, psychologist, or psychiatrist who can provide the clinical care you need. For referrals, you can visit Psychology Today’s Therapist Directory.

Preference for Talk Therapy

Some people prefer a traditional talk therapy model like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) over hypnosis. If you’re looking for weekly conversations and structured exercises, CBT may be a better fit. The National Alliance on Mental Illness is a helpful place to start exploring those options.


Hypnotherapy is powerful for many people, especially when it comes to building self hypnosis for confidence, boosting self-belief, and unlocking your natural ability to thrive in your personal life or career. But it’s not always the right match for everyone. If you’re unsure, please know you can reach out—I’d be glad to guide you toward the best path forward, whether that’s with me or another provider who can fully meet your needs.

 

FAQs about confidence hypnosis

  • Yes, hypnosis can improve confidence. Hypnosis helps quiet the critical inner voice, reduce self-doubt, and strengthen positive self-beliefs. During a hypnosis session, you enter a relaxed state where your subconscious mind becomes more receptive to empowering suggestions. This allows you to reframe limiting thoughts and build a stronger sense of self-assurance.

    As a hypnotherapist, I’ve seen clients transform from feeling stuck and insecure to approaching challenges with courage and clarity. Research supports this too — hypnosis has been shown to reduce anxiety, improve performance, and boost self-image, which are all key components of confidence. Whether you want to feel more comfortable speaking in public, take bold steps in your career, or simply trust yourself more, hypnosis can be a powerful tool to get there.

    I have personally used hypnosis to help me with confidence performing in musicals after a 20 year hiatus. I use it to unlock my voice, to be able to sing at new levels and perform in front of a 1000 people feeling a sense of excitement instead of fear.

  • Hypnosis works by guiding you into a deeply relaxed, focused state (sometimes called a trance). In this state, your conscious mind takes a back seat while your subconscious mind — where habits and beliefs are stored — becomes more open to new ideas.

    When it comes to self-esteem, hypnosis can help replace negative mental patterns with empowering ones. For example, instead of replaying thoughts like “I’m not good enough,” hypnosis encourages your subconscious to adopt affirmations like “I am capable and worthy.” Over time, these positive messages help you feel more confident and comfortable in your own skin. Many clients report feeling lighter, calmer, and more optimistic after just a few sessions.

  • Yes, self-hypnosis can help with confidence. But has it's limitations. Self-hypnosis is a practice where you intentionally guide yourself into a relaxed, focused state and use visualization or affirmations to build confidence.

    That said, self-hypnosis does have some limitations. Sometimes we are so “in our own way” that it’s hard to know exactly what we need to hear or shift on a subconscious level. In these cases, having an outside guide can be incredibly powerful — an objective voice of reason and reflection that can bypass your inner resistance and help you get to the root of the issue more effectively. Combining both professional hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis often creates the best results for lasting results.

    A trained hypnotherapist can tailor suggestions to your unique needs — self-hypnosis is a great way to reinforce your progress between sessions. In my practice, I provide clients with a recording of their personalized hypnosis session, which they can listen to at home as a form of self-hypnosis. This recording is designed specifically for you — not just a generic script — so it speaks directly to your personal blocks, history, and goals.
