Hypnotherapy
I love helping my clients release blockages that hold them back from achieving their goals, but realized the value of creating new associations within the subconscious mind. My curiosity eventually led to my enrollment at the Hypnosis Motivation Institute’s Nationally Accredited College of Hypnotherapy.
I've learned so many wonderful tools to assist people with empowerment and personal transformation. I have had the honor of working directly with the director of the institute and key senior staff instructors to learn to integrate my clinical hypnotherapy skills into my current practice.
See how hypnotherapy can help you discover your inner resources for powerful and lasting change.
Consults are required prior to all hypnotherapy sessions.
There are two key concepts for understanding why hypnosis is such an important tool for
creating life changes.
Homeostasis:
Homeostasis is our innate unconscious drive to “stay the same”, that is to say resist all changes at a subconscious level. While we may desire a change in our feelings, reactions or habits, at a deeper level our subconscious defense mechanisms seek to preserve the familiar, resisting efforts to change. While talking, planning, discussion, and rational understanding of behavior are all important concepts, they do not address our subconscious need to sabotage our success and/or efforts to change.
Neuroplasticity:
On a personal, spiritual and behavioral level, neuroplasticity is the ability of the brain to change throughout an individual’s life. Our ability to changes beliefs, emotional responses and behavioral habits is dependent on the flexibility of or our mind. Hypnosis, Therapeutic Imagery, NLP, mindfulness and more are the tools used in hypnotherapy to facilitate the internal, emotional, behavioral flexibility need to overcome homeostasis and release our subconscious needs to sabotage our success or resist our desires for change.
*All new clients please schedule a consult prior to any service. In person and phone consults available. Some services can be provided via phone or Zoom.
**COVID-19 update: I use a hospital-grade disinfectant for my biofeedback equipment and am spending extra time sanitizing hard surfaces in between clients. Since sessions tend to run from 60 to 90 minutes, I have things set up so that we can maintain the 6ft social distancing recommended during the length of the session, as well as masks. If you have any signs of illness, please reschedule your appointment. I will also be asking all of my clients to wash their hands before sessions. If you feel any level of discomfort coming in, and would prefer to reschedule, this is a reminder that certain services can be conducted remotely, from the comfort of your home.
