Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy, or hypnosis, is a type of therapy in which clients are put in a trance-like state that leaves them more open to suggestion. Hypnotherapy is used to help a client create unconscious change, which may result in new behaviors, feelings or thoughts. Unlike how it is sometimes portrayed in pop culture, hypnosis will not cause you to lose control over your behavior. People under hypnosis typically feel calm and relaxed, and remain aware of what is happening. Hypnotherapy can be helpful in treating conditions including depression, anxiety, stress and insomnia. It can also be beneficial in conquering negative habits, like smoking or over eating.

Hypnotherapy is incredibly useful in enabling a person to relax and quiet their mind and as a result of this accessing deeper areas of consciousness allowing for drastic shifts of mind patterns resulting in greater happiness and depth of being.

Hypnosis gets you beyond stories of stuck-ness and delivers you to an inner space of resource. The subconscious speaks in metaphor and symbols in order shift your perspective and find new approaches to over-coming old problems. The psyche only ever intends to keep you safe and comfortable. Hypnotherapy is direct access to your wisdom and intuition--it is my honor to guide you on this journey!

I received my first intro ASCH approved training in Clinical Hypnosis in July 2025 and am currently working toward my certification in clinical hypnosis. I engage in regular consultation in this area. At client request, I use hypnosis to help clients reduce stress, improve relaxation and am learning to help them use it to process trauma. I love to teach clients self hypnosis so they can reap the benefits of healthy trance on their own terms!
