Biography for Harley Sears, CHt
As a Hypnotherapist, I help ordinary, everyday people with ordinary, everyday problems. I combine behavioral strategies, motivational enhancement, mindfulness training, and customized hypnotic techniques to help you make changes that last.
My professional journey began 22 years ago, working as a mental health specialist at a psychiatric hospital. There I was first introduced to the idea of mind-body medicine and led weekly group sessions focused on guided meditation and relaxation.
I graduated from the Hypnosis Motivation Institute in Southern California. I also received a Certificate in Positive Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and training in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction from the University of Massachusetts Medical School.
Throughout my career, I have completed thousands of hours of advanced training, hundreds of hours of clinical supervision, and exceeded the “10,000-hour rule” in my professional practice.
