Transformation Clinic by Danna Pycher
NLP, CHT, CPLC
Sometimes, just talking through issues won't get to the core of what is actually happening in your mind. Hypnotherapy is the most effective modality to help you get to the root of the issue so you can move forward with your life! I specialize in people with trauma and chronic
illness
because I can relate, as I have been there before. I am passionate about helping people get to their best life as soon as possible. I use a unique hybrid of Hypnotherapy, Neuro- Linguistic Programming, and Life Coaching to ensure the best possible care.

My specialty is grief & loss of all kinds, including bereavement, loss of health (chronic & terminal
illness
), loss of a beloved pet, retirement, and moving away from home (and other teen/young adult issues).
My approach to therapy is humanistic and strengths-based. I work with my clients to discover past and present successes and use these to address the challenges they face. I also use elements of narrative therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients recognize that the person is not the problem; the problem is the problem. I am trained in relaxation techniques, including hypnotherapy. I am so fortunate that people choose to share their stories and their lives with me.

My ideal client is an individual seeking freedom from emotional and psychological
pain
. My clients see me in order to gain independence from the
pain
of trauma, chronic
illness
, addiction, and existential crisis. My client's learn new ways of thinking about the world and their place in it. They learn to live as "a part of" and not "apart from". Their relationships are enhanced, their quality of life improves, and they begin to experience life more broadly and richly. My ideal client desires change and is willing to work to achieve it.

Hello there! If you are reading this, chances are you have been experiencing difficulties for which you have not found lasting solutions. That is okay and it does happen to all of us at one point or another. Gaining a better understanding of these difficulties, where they stem from, how they are maintained, and barriers to making changes are part of the processes people find helpful in getting their life back on track. As a licensed psychologist, I hope to provide an empathic, nonjudgemental space for us to do just that.

It is my belief that everyone can and should benefit from therapy; whether suffering from severe mental
illness
or simply looking for a road map. Truly knowing oneself is an integral part of the lifelong journey toward self actualization. Unfortunately, stigma discourages many from taking advantage of our profession.

Licensed in Florida, Georgia and Missouri. This is not your typical therapy practice. I enjoy working with clients who are looking for something different than the "more of the same" approach.

Has someone in your life emotionally abused you by being bullied, harassed, invalidated, or criticized, and now you have anxiety, depression, and/or self-esteem issues? Is the anxiety paralyzing you, creating anger, or making you avoid important things? Are you thinking negatively of yourself, thinking something is wrong with you or you are not good enough, feeling empty inside, or comparing yourself to others? Do you have deep emotional
pain
from how people have treated you? Do you worry about almost everything, especially what people might think of you? Are you feeling alone as no one around you gets it?

I have successfully worked with clients on a wide range of issues including adapting to physical
illness
, struggling with eating disorders, overcoming depression and anxiety, as well as those needing to reconnect with themselves.
Asking for help can be a very difficult thing to do. Many people think going to a counselor means that they're admitting that they can't handle their lives or that they've totally lost control. In fact, talking to a therapist means that you are taking your happiness into your own hands. Have feelings of depression, anxiety, guilt or fear been getting in the way of your happiness? There may have been a family, health or financial situation that led you to the place you're at right now or maybe you are just looking for more.

Chronic Pain
and Chronic
Illness
.
Most of my clients are intelligent, spiritual and insightful, seeking enlightenment, peace and love. Many have existential problems, leftover hurts and traumas from childhood, low self-esteem. I have seen many victims of sexual abuse and other traumas. We move through understanding responsibility, forgiving self and others, and ultimately moving to self acceptance. I recommend meditation to all of my clients for the purpose of achieving peace, self discovery, learning to love and to connect with something much larger than the self (call it what you will).

Psychotherapy provides a safe and supportive environment to work on achieving your highest potential. In therapy, you discover new ways of coping, different points of view, hidden strengths, and an improved outlook on life. Life is filled with the need to change and adapt to new circumstances. Some changes, like marriage, parenting, graduation, and moves, are expectable, while events like loss, separation, trauma, and
illness
are unexpected and more difficult to overcome. Psychotherapy will help you find a new outlook, discover strengths, address difficulties with different tools, and apply the new experiences to future challenges.

I am a psychotherapist: more specifically, a psychologist and a psychoanalyst. I have seen hundreds and hundreds of patients over the course of my forty plus year career. Every one of them has a story to tell, a story that despite its often gut-wrentching
pain
is beautiful, both in its uniqueness and its complexity. It is a story that the person may never have dared to tell before finding the safety of my office, perhaps feeling too inconsequential or guilty or ashamed.
