  • About Me

Welcome !

A warm welcome from Svitlana Colligan! Originally I am from Ukraine, finished Master’s in Psychology/Psychoanalysis Kharkiv, Ukraine.

My Approach

I offer individual private counseling in Hypnosis and as a Life Coach (ICF PCC certified) in my Alexandria, VA office or online through WhatsApp US, EU, UA. Languages I use for counseling sessions: English, Ukrainian, Russian.

Why It Matters

Today, mental health professionals face a difficult environment filled with the negative impacts from Social Media, toxic relationships, anxiety, panic attacks, and social polarization. More than ever people suffer from the inability to cope with life’s obstacles. These challenges can be unknown or known, big or small. Mental health, if not addressed, can lead to a decline in physical health.

My Methods

  • Coaching

As a life coach, coaching doesn’t provide answers or solutions, doesn’t work with past traumas or difficult states. Instead, facilitate a process by which the coachee can arrive at their own solutions. It’s a process of inquiry, reflection, and discovery. The coach’s role is to ask powerful questions that challenge the coachee to think critically and creatively.

  • Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a heightened state of concentration and focused attention, visualization in a light or deep trance. This state allows you to be more open to suggestions about making healthful changes in your perceptions, sensations, emotions, memories, thoughts or behaviors. It isn’t mind control or brain washing. Instead, it works with certain requests: addictions, states, behaviors, goals, past memories, experiences, and experiences from past lives through regression. Any changes in your health or habits will come from you choosing to make them.

A hypnotherapist is a professional who works with the deeper parts of your mind (the subconscious). Under hypnosis, we bypass the critical filter of the conscious mind—which often blocks change—and address the root causes of your issues.

Emotional & Mental Patterns

Hypnotherapy can help you move through fears and phobias such as social anxiety, fear of public speaking, or fear of making mistakes. It also works through emotional blocks — feelings of guilt, shame, resentment, or emotions that feel permanently “stuck.” In addition, we address the tendency to break free from old patterns, especially when you notice you’re repeating the same mistakes in relationships or in life but can’t seem to stop.

Body & Nervous System

Stress relief through hypnotherapy supports a deep restoration of the nervous system. Because many physical symptoms have emotional roots, we also work on psychosomatic manifestations like chronic fatigue, muscle tension, or sleep disturbances — as well as broader psychosomatic support for physical conditions, addressing the emotional triggers and secondary gains that keep them in place.

Growth & Self-Discovery

Rewriting limiting beliefs and core convictions helps you identify and replace outdated mental programs that subconsciously block your growth. Similarly, healing deep-seated resentments means working through long-standing emotional wounds, processing anger, and releasing the past to reclaim your energy. Through regression and progression work, you can explore the subconscious mind to uncover the root causes of current issues and tap into your true potential. For those facing addictions and dependencies, hypnotherapy offers compassionate, structured support in breaking free from substance abuse or emotional dependency. Finally, if you’re navigating a lack of purpose or an existential crisis, this work helps you discover your true self and define a clear life vision.

You free yourself from the emotional baggage that holds you back and find inner freedom and peace.
This is a common myth from movies. Hypnosis is a state of deep concentration. If I stop talking or the connection is lost, you will either simply come out of this state in a couple of minutes, or you will fall asleep and wake up feeling refreshed, just as you would after a regular nap.

A psychologist is a trained mental health professional who helps people navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, panic attacks, relationship separation, or grief. They help you understand what’s driving your symptoms and build healthy ways to cope. With 18 years of experience, I provide a range of mental health support tailored to each client’s needs.

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialize in mental disorders and are licensed to prescribe medicine — they’re part of your care team when a condition like schizophrenia or severe depression requires medication. Psychologists are not medical doctors and, in most US states or the EU, cannot prescribe or perform medical procedures. As a mental health professional, I work within the coaching and hypnotherapy domain, focusing on the mind and emotional patterns rather than medication. In my experience, most challenges can be addressed without the need for medicine.
