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 works at the unconscious level, accessing the deeply rooted patterns, beliefs, & stories shaping your life. Together, we will gently explore these layers, creating space to rewire limiting beliefs, release emotional blocks, & invite profound transformation. This practice offers a safe, guided journey to reconnect with your innate wisdom & step into alignment with your truest self.

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.

Clinical hypnosis is not only one of the most robustly evidence-based treatment modalities that exists, it is also strength-based, creative, playful, elegant, and empowering. It is not something I "do" to my client, but rather a collaborative process skill that you can develop with guidance to transform your experience of life both mentally and physically. It is a delight and I use self-hypnosis every day. Also a powerful tool for treating persistent pain.

Certified Hypnotherapist and Brainspotting Practitioner

So much of what drives us as humans comes from deeply held pain and beliefs that live in the subconscious mind. That's the place where lasting change is possible. I take time to hear my clients needs and expectations, so we can come up with a plan that fits their needs. Hypnosis is the solution that gets you past the habits, beliefs, and blocks that have kept you from change for all these years.

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!

Hypnotherapy is a recommended treatment for IBS, particularly when brain-body communication contributes to symptoms. It can also be highly effective for other physical ailments, such as chronic lower back pain and fibromyalgia, which often share similar underlying mechanisms of stress, tension, and nervous system dysregulation. By addressing the mind-body connection, hypnotherapy helps reduce hypervigilance, anxiety, and physical symptoms, promotes relaxation, and enhances overall well-being.

I was trained in hypnosis by the Oregon Society of Clinical Hypnosis (OSCH). OSCH is a component section of The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH), the largest U.S. organization for health and mental health care professionals using clinical hypnosis. I believe that hypnosis allows clients to access parts of their brain/consciousness that can provide insights into beliefs and behaviors, which can subsequently be re-framed or changed by the individual, who is always in control.
