Today, mental health professionals face a difficult enviroment 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.

Certified Hypnotherapist

As a certified hypnotherapist, I combine traditional counseling methods with hypnotherapy techniques to help clients access the subconscious mind and create lasting change. This approach is especially effective for breaking patterns that talk therapy alone hasn’t resolved.

My Life Coaching & Hypnotherapy Methods

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