Biography for Anjali Agarwal, CCHt

I bring an integrative approach to healing that blends medical insight, clinical hypnotherapy, and subconscious transformation.

As a Physician, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, and entrepreneur, my work is centered on helping individuals create meaningful, lasting change from within. I combine science, evidence-based behavioral methods, and subconscious work to address the root of patterns—not just the symptoms.

My training in client-centered hypnosis, subconscious reprogramming, and emotional regulation has been recognized with the Director’s Award, Academic Achievement Award, and High Honors—reflecting both depth of study and commitment to this work.

I specialize in anxiety, trauma recovery, nervous system regulation, and personal growth. Each session is tailored using somatic techniques, guided imagery, breathwork, and mindfulness-based hypnotherapy—meeting you exactly where you are.

I am based in Birmingham, Alabama, and work with clients both locally and virtually. I speak English, Hindi, and Oriya, with working proficiency in Bengali and Spanish.
