Swept under the rug by humiliation, hopeless and in despair, cold and without reprieve. Less than whole, desperate to know that there is an end that doesn’t end it all.

I have been a Hypnotherapist for the past seven years. I encourage our patient's ability for “self-healing,” utilizing the “power in their minds.” I am a firm believer that positive change is possible by simply reprogramming thinking and the workings of the mind. I recognize the beauty of Hypnotherapy has the potential to assist patients in being released from the "root cause(s)" of his/her current condition or characteristic. Hypnotherapy is used in addition to other forms of therapy. It is often used with other psychological or medical treatment. Hypnotherapy can be used to treat a number of emotional, physical illnesses.
