Mark Anthony
The Story

From curiosity to calling

Mark Anthony's journey into hypnosis began over two decades ago with a simple fascination: why do some people change instantly, while others struggle for years? That question led him to study clinical hypnosis, psychotherapy, and the mechanics of the subconscious mind.

What started as clinical work quickly expanded to the stage, where Mark discovered a unique ability to entertain thousands while demonstrating the extraordinary power of the human mind. He became one of Australia's most in-demand stage hypnotists, performing for major corporations, networking events, universities, and cruise lines around the world.

Today Mark operates across three disciplines — stage performance, clinical therapy, and education — each one informing the others. His clinical work makes him a better performer. His stage experience makes him a more confident therapist. And his teaching forces him to constantly refine what he knows.

What People Say About Mark

In their own words

★★★★★

"Wow!! Wow!! Wow!! this actually works. I was your typical Aussie chick, very sceptical but open and I can't believe how easy this was for me to give up smoking. Mark breaks it down in such a simple and easy way that it just makes sense. I could not recommend him high enough!!! I have smoked since I was 13 and I am 53 now and can happily say I have been a happy non smoker for 6months now and will never ever smoke again. The feeling is amazing!!! So free. I look back now and think how did I smoke for so long. Thank you Mark for helping me change my life. You are one special human being 💕"

"Mark was 'The First Hypnotist Ever in Australia' to be invited to do the 10 minute half time show at the 'Brisbane Bullets' Basketball game, and here's what they said: 'Absolutely awesome, I was falling off my seat laughing'. 'Instead of the fans getting food at half time they were standing in the isles stunned at what people were doing' 'I want him at my party.' Thanks Mark."

"I had one session with mark I was very unsure if it would help me I thought it can't hurt was very professional I walked out of his practice thinking nothing has changed but as soon as I left the building without even realising he changed and actually saved my life I owe mark the world. Couldn't recommend him higher. I'm so glad I reached out to mark"
