Hypnosis is a natural, focused state of awareness, similar to daydreaming or being deeply absorbed in a book or movie.  In this relaxed state, your mind becomes more open to helpful suggestions and insights, making it easier to shift habits, beliefs, and behaviors.

Not at all.  You are always in control.  Hypnosis is a cooperative process.  You're just more relaxed and focused, not unconscious or under someone else's power.  You can speak, move, and even choose to stop the session at any time.  I won't make you quack like a duck unless you want to!

Most people can enter a light to moderate hypnotic state very easily, especially with the right guide.  The more willing and open you are, the more effective the process will be!  

Hypnosis can support a wide range of goals, including:

• Reducing stress and anxiety

• Improving sleep

• Releasing limiting beliefs

• Enhancing motivation and focus

• Improving athletic performance

• Shifting habits (like smoking or procrastination)

• Boosting confidence and self-trust

• Pain management (including natural childbirth)

While hypnosis can be very helpful for losing weight, I do not provide services for weight management.  However, I can help you focus on developing related habits, including healthy movement, intuitive eating, and body trust.  I believe strongly that health knows no body shape or type, and I provide a Health at Every Size-centered approach to all my offerings.  If you feel my work does not align with your goals, I am happy to refer you to a hypnotherapist who specializes in that field.

That depends on your goals.  Some people feel a shift after just one session, while others benefit from a series to reinforce change. Hypnosis is highly personalized, and we'll work together to create the right path for you.

Many hypnotherapists use generic, pre-written scripts meant to fit a wide range of clients, often created long before you walk through the door.  My approach is different.

I focus on collaboration and connection.  During our intake session, we’ll explore your unique goals and challenges to get to the root of what’s holding you back.  From there, I will create a personalized hypnosis session using language and imagery that truly resonates with you.  Your session will be recorded and delivered by email, so you can listen in the comfort of your own home.

Research shows that personalized hypnosis often leads to quicker, more lasting results, because it's designed specifically for you.

In addition to formal hypnotherapy training, I’ve studied extensively in healing and esoteric modalities, including intuitive development, mediumship, and tarot.  Because hypnosis connects deeply with energy and awareness, I often receive subtle, intuitive insights during sessions—insights that may illuminate deeper emotional or energetic needs.

If you’re curious about these intuitive offerings or would like to explore how they can support your healing journey, please don't hesitate to contact me.
