What Hypnotherapy Is (and What It Definitely Isn’t)

Let’s get one thing straight: hypnotherapy is not me swinging a pocket watch in front of your face while saying, “You are getting very sleepy…”

I mean, if that worked, I’d have a lot fewer sleepless nights and a lot more clients floating out of my office like zen masters. But nope—that’s Hollywood, not healing.

So, what is hypnotherapy, really?

It’s a powerful, evidence-based tool that helps you quiet the noise of your conscious mind (you know, that overthinking, self-doubting, list-making voice) so we can access your subconscious—the part of your brain that runs about 95% of the show.
It’s like finding the “settings” tab on your internal operating system and gently updating the stuff that’s been holding you back.

Think of it as guided relaxation with purpose. You’re fully aware, totally in control, and usually surprised by how relaxed you feel. And no, I can’t make you cluck like a chicken (unless you really want to—then we should probably talk about boundaries).

What Hypnotherapy Isn’t

It’s not mind control.
It’s not sleep.
It’s not woo-woo magic or trickery.
It’s not therapy with a couch and a clipboard.
And it’s not about me “doing something to you.”

It’s a partnership—one where we work together to reprogram the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns that keep you feeling stuck, stressed, or out of alignment.

You know those loops your mind plays on repeat, like:
“I’ll never get this right.”
“I’m too old for that.”
“I don’t have time for myself.”

Yeah. Those are the ones we get to rewrite.

What It Feels Like

Most people describe it as a deep, dreamy calm—like that delicious space between awake and asleep when you could move if you wanted to, but you’d really rather not.

You’re aware the whole time, you can talk if you need to, and when it’s over, you usually feel lighter, clearer, and more connected to yourself.

It’s like your nervous system gets a 60-90-minute vacation—without the packing, airports, or tiny shampoo bottles.

Why I Love It

As someone who’s spent years helping women heal their bodies, hormones, and burnout, I’ve seen firsthand how much our thoughts shape our health.

Hypnotherapy goes straight to the root.
It helps you stop fighting yourself and start aligning your mind and body in the same direction.
It’s the missing piece for so many women who have “done all the things” and still feel stuck.

So, no swinging watches. No spooky voices.
Just you, your subconscious, and a guide (hi, that’s me) helping you tap into your own inner wisdom.

Here are just a few of the areas I can guide you in

  • releasing weight

  • overwhelm

  • cravings

  • next steps in life

Because sometimes, healing isn’t about doing more.
It’s about going deeper…and deeper
