Hypnotherapy is another way of helping people with trauma. anxiety, depression, smoking, and eating disorders.

Hypnotherapy connects you to the power of the subconscious mind, and combined with holistic counseling and acupressure, old self defeating patterns based on trauma or self-doubt can be released. Underneath these old patterns, your true confidence, resilience, and strength lie hidden. These are natural human qualities which we all can experience when the mind turns away from negativity and fear toward trust and wholeness. It requires a shift of attention from the conditioned mind to the real presence of your own authentic self which the "BodyMind Transformation' process encourages and facilitates.

I have been a practicing psychotherapist for 40 years. Throughout all of my years in practice, I have been amazed by the resilience of the human spirit. I work with clients who have endured and survived traumatic histories or devastating losses, and are now presenting with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or Complex PTSD. Recovery from trauma is hard work, but with support, effective therapeutic tools, and the commitment to recover, I believe healing is possible.

I consider it a privilege to treat those who seek my help. I am an empathic listener who is also actively engaged in the therapeutic process.

Worries, fears and stress can be very disruptive to our lives. Developing an understanding of why we feel so vulnerable and developing better coping strategies can be the product of psychotherapy.

Hypnotherapy fosters a deep meditative state allowing client to access inner resources to facilitate change. I am also a trained Couples Therapist with clients at various stages of adjustment or imbalance.

My ideal client is one that is motivated for change; one that recognizes that what they have been doing or trying to do is not working presently. My ideal client is willing to consider alternatives and open-minded to possibilities. They are seeking a therapist who is oriented toward relationships, those they have with themselves and others, and with the multiple systems, contexts, and cultures within which each client exists and functions.

I have been treating clients for almost 32 years now. My framework in treatment is the symbiotic and cybernetic relationship between mind and body based in Buddhist Psychology, knowing and appreciating that an imbalance in one directly and drastically affects the other. My primary treatment modality is MBCT (Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy). Balance and homeostasis are the ultimate goals.

Hypnosis is not controlling people, as is often depicted in the movies. Hypnosis is an effective scientific technique that puts your brain function at a maximum level to help you best solve your troubled issues. In a subconscious/hypnotized state, you can recall any information even though it is deeply buried in your mind. With your subconscious mind, you can simply understand information that is given to you better than ever. Your subconscious mind gives the strongest support to your own will to overcome dieting or quitting smoking. It works, so I shifted my career to an emphasis on hypnotherapy.
