The Art of Healing Isn't Hard to Master
Take it from someone who has used hypnosis to improve many aspects of my life: it can be easy to make positive changes in your life. Hypnosis is a change in perspective, because it allows us to access the subconscious mind, which is the programming we have been operating from since a very young age. I am transparent with my clients when I share that hypnosis has helped me personally overcome anxiousness, sadness, trouble sleeping, kicking the smoking habit, a fear of public speaking, and more. When you believe and feel good about yourself, you naturally choose healthier actions and decisions that support your wellbeing. I have seen this natural shift in myself and many clients.
We have been programmed since a very young age to think that change is HARD, but change doesn’t have to be hard with hypnosis. We go into hypnosis several times throughout the day when daydreaming, driving, reading, gaming, etc, so the point of hypnotherapy is to use hypnosis as a self-improvement tool. It is a rewiring. It’s changing the negative, limiting beliefs you decided about yourself so long ago. It’s focusing on how you want to feel instead of how you are currently feeling, and seeing those positive changes happen.
I am a practitioner of Integral Hypnotherapy™ which is the only hypnotherapy methodology that has been scientifically-validated by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). You can learn more about me here, but keep reading below to explore and learn more about hypnotherapy and its numerous benefits.
About Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is an educational and self-improvement process that facilitates access to internal resources that help people solve problems, increase motivation, or alter behavioral patterns to create positive change. Co-therapists are fully aware of what is happening during a hypnotherapy session and are in complete control of their thoughts, actions, and what they choose to speak out loud. Despite what we’ve all seen on TV and during stage hypnosis shows, hypnotherapy isn’t about being made to bark like a dog for laughs. It’s about getting into a state of relaxation, setting goals, imagining helpful imagery, and repeating positive suggestions for change. Hypnotherapy is not about mind control or falling asleep — rather, it’s about waking up and taking control of your life. You are physically relaxed yet in a heightened state of awareness. Think about the last time you were driving somewhere, spaced out, and you snap out of it minutes later. That’s hypnosis, and it occurs naturally on a daily basis.
Co-therapists are clients, but you are so much more than that. You play an integral role in your hypnotherapy sessions by helping me create the positive suggestions and imagery related to achieving your goal. Most co-therapists achieve their goals in 3-8 sessions, and that happens when you commit yourself fully to our work together — and yes, it does include homework! Remember, hypnotherapy is an educational and self-improvement process. During our sessions, I will teach you to practice self-hypnosis so you can become the master of your own mind, so daily practice of hypnosis becomes your homework.

Send Your Stress Away
Stress is a normal part of life; it creates balance and harmony, but it can be difficult to navigate stress, or even just get through the day when we’re overwhelmed. Hypnotherapy can help you manage your stress, stay positive and present, and appreciate life living in the moment rather than dwelling on the past or anticipating the future. Hypnotherapy gives back what you’re willing to put in. When you’re willing to do the work, you will see positive results quickly. It’s time to choose yourself and experience the positive results in your life that you so deserve!
