What Hypnotherapy Helps With

  • Chronic pain relief, mind-body pain patterns, and tension-related symptoms

  • Anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and emotional reactivity

  • Behavior change, habit shifts, confidence building, and performance focus

  • Trauma-informed hypnotherapy to support deeper integration

  • Hypnosis for sleep, relaxation, and nervous system regulation

My Approach

Your session is always client-led—you choose whether to include hypnosis.
Hypnotherapy can enhance traditional psychotherapy by helping you access the subconscious mind, where emotional and physical patterns are stored. This combination often reduces pain, supports emotional healing, and accelerates progress.

Most pain clients report:

  • Reduced pain by session 1

  • Continued relief for ~70% of clients after 4 sessions

What to Expect

  • Gentle, guided experience

  • You remain in control the entire time

  • Sessions can include mindfulness, somatic awareness, cognitive work, and therapeutic hypnosis

  • Available in person in Chico and online throughout California
