Professional Testimonials

"Thank you very much for your contribution this spring at the Morehouse School of

Medicine. Your lecture regarding the use of medical hypnosis as a healing modality was

captivating, insightful & inspiring.

The examples & case reports you gave the students of your work made the application of medical hypnosis more real & meaningful to the students. The class also appreciated that you brought a Western trained medical doctor with you to participate in your

demonstration of the power of suggestion. I invite you to participate next year in the ICAM class."

“Ajamu Ayinde is a Medical Hypnotherapist with whom I have had a long relationship. He

connected with the Oncology Support Program (OSP) as a vendor at our Day of Healing event in 2001. When one of the speakers had to leave suddenly, Ajamu stepped in & gave a terrific

presentation on the role of guided imagery in cancer support. He participated in our first annual Breast Cancer Conference held at Kingston HS in 2001. His talk, Permission to Heal, was very well received.  He wrote for the Celebrate Life! newsletter for several years until he moved from the area. In

2003 he moved to Atlanta to work with Susan Kolb, MD, a holistic plastic surgeon at

Millennium Healthcare/Avatar Cancer Center as their staff hypnotherapist. His duties included providing hypnotherapy to patients before & after surgery, as well as leading weekly guided imagery sessions for patients in the practice.  Ajamu will be providing group guided imagery for survivors every Friday at the Herbert &

Sofia Reuner Cancer Support House starting in the Fall. We are very glad to have him back with us as a resource for the patients we serve.” -

Barbara Sarah LCSW

Founder, Oncology Support Program at HealthAlliance Hospital

"Ajamu is a marvelous clinical hypnotherapist addressing medical issues & sports

enhancement. He was a valuable member of the Millennium Healthcare team for several

years. As a holistic plastic surgeon, I have personally seen the benefits of hypnosis in my own life & within my practice. Ajamu created beautiful guided imagery sessions for healing & stress management each week as a free service to our patients & the general public. He has appeared on my radio show & given numerous talks on exercise

motivation, visualization for cancer support & hypnotic approaches to childbirth at the

clinic. He received high praise from his patients & students. I appreciate his expertise, compassion & commitment to assist with building our practice locally & nationally through his public speaking engagements. I highly recommend Ajamu to any group practice." -

"I have been a pediatrician for 27 years & I embrace complementary medicine as part of

my practice. Hypnotherapy has many uses in pediatrics including needle phobia, enuresis

& allergies. I find that children are ideal candidates for hypnosis because it utilizes an active imagination. Ajamu Ayinde has been associated with New Windsor Pediatrics for almost two years. In that time I have known him to demonstrate compassion, cultural sensitivity, patience, creativity & discretion in dealing with patients. He has extensive

training in various methods of hypnotherapy, as well as applied sports psychology. A

former high school teacher, Ajamu has helped young people with a variety of issues but his current practice has him using hypnosis to support diet adherence, exercise motivation & exam anxiety. I wholeheartedly recommend Ajamu's services to my patients, other parents & physicians." -

"I have taken many hypnosis courses given by very good teachers. A few fall in the

category of excellent teachers. Ajamu Ayinde falls in this category. His knowledge of

hypnosis practice & theory is excellent. His ability to teach is outstanding. The knowledge & skills I have learned from him I use in my self-hypnosis & incorporate into my own teaching to the staff & patients at my health care facility. A hypnotherapy course given by Ajamu would be valuable to all backgrounds & would be very beneficial to MD's & other healthcare professionals." -

"As a family physician who is also board certified in Holistic & Integrative medicine, & specialized in energy healing, I have explored many diverse health practices for myself & for my patients. While working in a multispecialty holistic clinic, I had the opportunity to work with Ajamu for several years & experience firsthand his skill as a hypnotherapist. Ajamu has pursued extensive training in various aspects of hypnotherapy, including pain

management, surgical preparation & stress-related illnesses. He is also a skilled presenter & has given a lecture on Medical Hypnosis at Morehouse School of Medicine.

Additionally, I have experienced guided imagery sessions led by Ajamu. I highly

recommend him as a practitioner & presenter." -

Gia Ball, writer

“Ajamu has played an important role in keeping me on target and teaching me the proper techniques in order to keep the negative out of my weight-loss experience. I went into this experience with the mantra that I “would not fail this time.” Ajamu helped me get past the negative and create a positive mantra and outlook. I needed to stop looking at the negative and embrace the positives of my experience. Ajamu has helped me do that. He has taught me different techniques to handle my stress and continuously encourages me throughout my whole weight loss experience. His positive outlook and coaching techniques have helped me eliminate the negative and find new ways of dealing with the stresses of my hectic life. I could not have asked for a better counselor to help me lose weight. Today I am 52 pounds lighter and still losing. I can honestly say that Ajamu’s coaching has helped get me on the road to a better me.”-

Nancy Genck, Retail Manager

“I have been a client of Ajamu Ayinde for approximately 3 years. In that time I have always found him to be supportive, positive, and encouraging in every way.” -

Catherine Sorrentino, Food Service Manager

Dover Plains, NY

“I have known Ajamu for almost two years now. He has helped me in so many ways. He is always kind, courteous and sweet. From the moment I met him he put me at ease and we bonded immediately. I was a little shy at first and worried about how he was going to accept my uniqueness. But I need not have worried. He helped me realize that what I thought were shortcomings were actually normal feelings and I need not feel alone. I have seen him treat others the same way. He is such a great motivational speaker and I feel so much better after I have met with him. He does not push me or make me feel uncomfortable like other counselors do, but he works with me, side by side and helps me know that I can be a better person.” -
