Lasting change is much easier to achieve when our subconscious narratives are aligned with our conscious goals. Hypnotherapy is a goal-focused, skills-based approach that uses a relaxed but focused state to retrain automatic responses and associations. It’s effective for managing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, bad habits, and for improving focus, concentration and performance.
My sessions incorporate modern Hypnotherapy techniques along with practical skills and tools like self-hypnosis and audio files to practice between sessions. We will work together to identify and rewrite internal narratives to help you achieve your goals.

Life's pressures can leave you feeling like you're constantly running on a treadmill—anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the person you want to be.

My name is Devin, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My own story as a mixed-race, genderqueer femme of Mexican and Laos ancestry isn't just a biography line—it's the lens through which I understand the world.

Who we are is shaped by both deliberate decisions and the quieter, often unseen subconscious influences beneath them. These forces impact our emotions, actions, and sense of identity. When we explore and understand them, we open space for more conscious responses, new insights, and help us move toward greater internal harmony and behavioral changes. Insight lays the foundation, but intentional action sustains change. I will work with you to clarify your goals and encourage you to take actionable steps that support your growth and help you achieve your desired results.
