Hypnosis for Stress Management.
Who you are...
You’re someone who has lost a lot of the joy you feel in your life.
Perhaps you cannot shake your anxious feelings – or the hopelessness that you’ll never feel balance again.
You go through the motions to manage your time and stress – but they just feel like another project.
You know you’re not completely present with friends, work, or family, because perhaps you’re just so exhausted and checked out.
You’re tired of that constant pit in your stomach.
You want your power back.
Maybe you’re in your early 20s and overwhelmed having just entered the workforce. You don’t know how to manage your time and are constantly anxious about your work product and what your superiors think of it. Maybe you’re a seasoned executive but completely burned out and unsure how to escape the cycle. Or, perhaps it’s not work at all, but a specific relationship or life event that’s causing your emotional stress. Whatever the case may be, you feel like a heavy cloud is looming over you.
You may be working with a mental health professional now and they may be helping you to some extent. However, you can’t help but think there is something more you can do for your emotional well being.
You’re ready to take back your life, but you don’t know how. All you know is you want relief now!
What your issues tend to be…
On paper, your life may look good– but it doesn’t feel so good… You know you’re far from being your best self. The stress and anxiety takes over and diminishes how you experience and navigate the world.
Your work performance may suffer. You may not be there and present for your kids. You may withdraw from your social circles and the community at large.
Your sleep may suffer and you may even feel you have no control over situations in your life. It could be that you find some relief by overeating or perhaps you have even lost all interest in food. You may try to manage your stress through other unhealthy behaviors such as drinking too much alcohol, gambling, smoking or using drugs.
You know your health and well being is suffering, and you’re ready to feel more alive again.

The Blueprint for you…
What this looks like…
-
In the first session, we’ll discuss your goal in depth and clarify what you want to experience after you’re done working with me. I’ll educate you on hypnosis and the model of the mind to show how you have within you everything you need to achieve your goal. I will then hypnotize you three times: once for you to get a sense of the experience and ask questions, once to saturate your mind with the positive suggestions and visualizations we develop together during the session, and then one final time where I teach you how to perform your own self-hypnosis. At the end of our time together, I will email you a recording of the hypnosis to listen to between sessions which are generally scheduled one week apart. This first session is a deep dive that lasts up to two hours.

In the second session, I’ll educate you on the science behind the seven neurological levels of change developed by Robert Dilts, based on Gregory Bateson’s work. They are: Environment, Behavior, Capabilities, Beliefs, Values, Identity and Spirit. We will review where you’re at on each level, and determine what change is needed throughout so these seven areas align with your goal – as well as with each other. These changes will then be programmed into your mind while in hypnosis. When these neurological levels are in balance with your goal and each other, you will see the change you want happen more easily.

This is where we’ll spend the most time. I generally recommend a total of 6 sessions for most stress related issues although each client’s needs are evaluated individually. In sessions 3 through 6, I will guide you through various protocols specifically tailored to your needs. These sessions may consist not only of programming the mind with positive scripts and imagery but also reviewing past events so that you may understand, release, amend or replace beliefs that are blocking you from achieving your goal. This is where you may experience and release deep emotions.
Throughout your time working with me, while you are in hypnosis, I will guide you through various visualizations and imagery that range from beautiful scenes in nature to visualizing emotions within your body taking a specific form. In each case, you are seeking wisdom from your inner guidance. Have no doubt, your subconscious mind will provide the answers you need!
By the time you’ve completed your last session with me, you will have a series of recordings to listen to and several tools to utilize on any goal you have for the rest of your life.

Like with most things, the more you put into your self-hypnosis practice, the more you will get out of it….. That is, the faster you will achieve your goal! Ideally, between sessions, you will perform self-hypnosis 2 times per day, once in the morning and once before you go to bed. I will provide you with self-hypnosis options of varying lengths so that you will have time to fit the practice into your day. You will always have the choice to listen to the hypnosis recordings from our live sessions or do a shortened self-hypnosis on your own. At times, I will recommend other assignments or exercises to expedite reaching your goal. This work is where you truly commit to achieving your goal by utilizing the resources I’ve provided in our sessions.
