Biography for Craig J. Buboltz, CHt

Craig J. Buboltz is the founder and CEO of Top Sport Hypnosis. He started Top Sport Hypnosis as a result of a hiking expedition with two psychiatrists who introduced him to self-hypnosis. At the same time he discovered top athletes were using the same hypnotic techniques to enhance their sports performance. He was intrigued to why something so powerful is not being used by all athletes, but also for anyone who wants to improve their physical and mental well-being.

With over 20 years of coaching and teaching experience, he has been able to intersect sports psychology and holistic wellness for people of all ages. Through tailored hypnotic sessions, personalized coaching, and evidence-based strategies, he guides clients to achieve their personal goals.

Experience

Craig’s career path has always centered around teaching, coaching, and helping others reach their goals. After receiving a degree in Education, along with a Master’s degree in Multidisciplinary Studies, he has had the opportunity to work in schools, community centers, and world class resorts in the United States and abroad.

The experience as a college tennis player, along with his coaching certificate, opened the door for Craig to work as a tennis coach and professional. Teaching English at several international schools and volunteering with the Peace Corps strengthened his adaptability and intercultural communication skills. Then as a graduate with honors at HMI he created Top Sport Hypnosis to help students, athletes, and people of all ages reach peak performance on and off the court through the power of hypnosis.
