Hypnotherapy

Above is a short “safe place” hypnotherapy recording I created for calm and anxiety reduction.

Hypnotherapy is a powerful and potentially effective tool when used in the service of personal growth. It utilizes a heightened state of focus and attention to assist you in expanding your inner potentialities so you can move beyond stuck habits and behaviors.

That’s why I integrate clinical hypnotherapy into my practice. It’s a gentle, client-directed form of hypnosis, whose primary aim is helping you feel calm, well, and in control. 

I also offer all my clients the option to receive individualized hypnosis recordings that are created in session as part of the treatment, or as an additional service.

For recordings created outside of session I am able to spend extra time and energy scripting  every word I say, specializing the suggestions for clients I am already very familiar with, so that they can receive maximal benefit from the recordings. 

 I do this is because research has increasingly shown using hypnosis recordings for a minimum of 21 days can help to reduce anxiety, depression, pain, and fatigue, improve self-esteem and energy, increase self-mastery and motivation, and help with healing and relaxation. 

In these recordings, I customize metaphors and create extended story arcs that reflect deep cultural, historical, and emotional patterns that are relevant to you. 

Ultimately, this highly individualized approach can help to reach the deep places in your psyche that have been resistant to making the changes you consciously desire. 

 

Please note: it is uncommon for me to use hypnotherapy as a stand-alone treatment. The problems and issues that keep us stuck are often very deeply ingrained.  Out of respect for the complexity of the human psyche I integrate hypnotherapy into the larger therapeutic treatment because I do not believe, nor have I experienced, that stuck problems are so easily resolved with one or two hypnotherapy sessions.

You can also check out some research from Stanford and the University of Quebec on the power of hypnotherapy to alter brain regions and positively influence the therapy process.

Here you can find a New York Times Op-Ed piece from a writer who experienced incredible relief from crushing anxiety and OCD with the help of hypnosis. 

The internal experience of a powerful emotion becomes a reality to the mind.
