Biography for Jacalyn E. Duncan, CAHA, CHt
Graduating with a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy with Honors from the Hypnosis Motivation Institute in March 2023, I am currently continuing my education in the area of Mind-Body Psychology with an Associate of Occupational Studies degree.
I am further certified as a Certified Advanced Handwriting Analyst (CAHA), Advanced EFT Practitioner (Tapping), Master Practitioner of NLP, and Master Practitioner of Mental and Emotional Release® as well as being a Certified Hypnotherapist by the American Hypnosis Association. Emotional Freedom Technique is considered acupressure for the emotions and allows us to clear away the “blocks” to emotional freedom.
For me, becoming a hypnotherapist is the result of a substantial lifelong journey riddled with obstacles, challenges, and malleable emotional responses. I have spent countless hours in contemplation and reflection pondering the laws that seemingly govern our lives, and the directions in which life whirls us seamlessly through.
I find the mind a truly remarkable marvel to behold. In particular, the mind-body connection. Because the mind and body are in fact one system working together in unison. Despite the fact that at times it may feel as though they have their wires crossed, and are opposing one another. That is due to the bulk of our mind being dominated by our subconscious programming, uniquely determined by our associated experiences in life. The subconscious at its core being our “feeling mind” that drives our choices, behaviors, and “life script”.
Due to this hypnotherapy is an unparalleled resourceful tool, capable of achieving results that you may not have experienced before. Hypnosis is a natural “resource” state that we all experience on a regular basis. It is my passion and calling, to help others harness and unlock the power of their own subconscious mind, accomplishing a greater sense of control over their life, and help them live their “best life”.
Given my significant interest in the mind-body connection, I have a natural inclination and desire to assist those who may experience struggles of emotional or physical pain. Life can be a challenge enough as it is, let’s put our best foot forward and see what sorts of magnificent bounties are bustling to emerge within you, if only given an elevated sense of self-empowerment through the modality of hypnotherapy. I am currently seeing clients via Zoom from around the world.

Experience
Jacalyn graduated with the highest of honors, with a 4.2 GPA, from Hypnosis Motivation Institute, the first Nationally Accredited College of Hypnotherapy in the country. During her academia of their 720-hour residency program, she put in over 1,550 hours during that first calendar year. She is the recipient of the Directors Award, and is a prospect for the Academic Achievement Award of the 2023 graduating class.
After graduating on March 2, 2023, she quickly enrolled into the second year Mind-Body Psychology Associates of Occupational Studies degree program with the Hypnosis Motivation Institute. And she is currently maintaining her academic excellence throughout her second year of studies, while still operating full-time hours in her private practice, Hypno Practique LLC. She is well respected by her peers, and is often quick to offer assistance to them when necessary. She is not planning on slowing down with her own personal enrichment through continued education anytime soon.
After she completes her AOS Degree in Mind-Body Psychology with HMI, she has plans to pursue the BA of the Arts in Human Development through Antioch University. And from there she will work on a MA in Clinical Nutrition, and continue on towards her PhD in Clinical Psychology. She is fully committed to her studies, allowing her to continue to grow and help her clients advance their mental and physical mind-body health as a full system approach to therapy.
In addition to her deep appreciation for learning, Jacalyn has had a burning passion for art since her childhood. She has been a self-proclaimed “artist” since the age of five with her first finger paintings and crayon art… all the way up through present day. Throughout the years she has won various art contests, and even ones she personally ad not knowingly or personally entered into. Art has always been a therapeutic tool of hers that she has used to subconsciously tap into and emotionally release what she was going through at the time.
She spent years in the culinary industry as a fine dining server for a number of fine establishments. And through her years as a career server, she grew to have a great appreciation for exquisite food and beverage. Which carried over into her personal passion to craft her own quality meals from scratch in the comfort of her own home. Which she challenges herself to create tasty, nutritious, healthy meals with an artistic presentation.
In addition to her studies in her second year at HMI, her full-time private practice, and her art she is currently studying for her ISSA Nutritionist credential. Which will get her foot in the door with being able to help address the importance of a healthy and sustainable dietary lifestyle for her clients. This is super important to her since the GI tract is often referred to as “the secondary brain”. And with good reason. The microbiome and a healthy gut have a significant and direct impact on our mental well-being, behaviors, and emotional states. For example; around 70% of serotonin is produced in the GI tract. And it is released via the central nervous system to the primary brain in our cranium.
Which is just the start of the many ways the “gut” may play a significant role in out day to day life and choices. To quote a great philosopher, Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.
and All disease begins in the gut.
