Biography for Alicia Smith-Hudson, CHt

Alicia is a Portland, Oregon based Hypnotherapist, Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, Yoga Instructor, and English Language and Literature Teacher.

Through her own path of healing the physical, mental, and emotional body, Alicia has fostered a keen awareness of the critical nature of relationship, connection, and rapport.
