John Sheffel is a Nurse Practitioner and Medical Support Clinical Hypnotherapist. Over the last 18 years he has worked in Family Practice and as a Civilian contractor for the Department of State spending almost 5 years split between Iraq and Afghanistan. During his medical missions overseas, he provided medical services as a Primary Care Provider in austere combat zones and as a site lead administrator for a small forward surgical Hospital in southern Iraq. During his tour in Iraq, he was promoted to the Deputy Program Manager over all civilian medical serves of Iraq, consisting of 2 Hospitals and 7 Forward Operating Base clinics. He later was transferred to Afghanistan to assist with civilian medial services for the US Embassy in Kabul and at Forward Operating Base Camp Alvarado. With Covid 19 hitting in 2020 he spent the next two years treating Covid 19 patients as the only Primary Medical Provider at Camp Alvarado. His tour in Afghanistan ended with the evacuation from the US Embassy on the next to the last civilian helicopter out of the Embassy.
John now dedicates his life to helping others in a much more relaxed way as a Medical Support Clinical Hypnotherapist. Through his journeys he realized that he could help people heal faster using Hypnotherapy as a complement to Medication and Psychotherapy. By helping his clients relax mentally, physically and accessing the power of their mind his clients respond to treatments faster and more profoundly.
