Biography for Harley Sears, CMH

For over 27 years, Harley Sears has been guiding people toward positive change—from his early work as a Mental Health Specialist at a psychiatric hospital to his current practice, where he has helped thousands of clients overcome personal challenges through hypnotherapy.

His education includes a Diploma in Hypnotherapy from HMI College of Hypnotherapy, a Certificate in Wellness Counseling from Cornell University, and a Specialization in Integrative Health and Medicine from the University of Minnesota.

Harley’s debut book, The Magic in Metaphor, became an Amazon #1 New Release and Best Seller in multiple categories. It has received numerous literary awards and was selected for the prestigious BookLife Elite collection by Publishers Weekly.

With a modern approach that reimagines traditional hypnosis for today’s digital world, Harley offers secure video sessions to clients nationwide—without losing the human connection that makes hypnotherapy so effective.

He has thoughtfully designed every aspect of his practice around accessibility and convenience, offering flexible scheduling and affordable pricing to ensure professional, compassionate support is available whenever and wherever it’s needed most. While technology bridges the distance, Harley believes it’s the human bond that makes real transformation possible.
