Dr. Peter Najvar is a certified
clinical hypnotherapist in the Aus-
tin area. His interest in
hypnotherapy began as a child
when he saw a demonstration of
hypnosis at a Boy Scout meeting.
From that time on, he was fasci-
nated by hypnosis and eventually
attended Southern Methodist Uni-
versity, where he earned his Doc-

also one of the first hpnotherapists
in Central Texas, practicing con-
