Biography for Jason Shivers, CHt

Jason Shivers is a Certified Hypnotherapist, Usui Reiki Master Teacher, and licensed massage therapist whose journey into the healing arts began long before any official certification. Raised in a metaphysical commune, Jason grew up immersed in spiritual teachings, energy awareness, and alternative healing modalities. That early foundation planted the seeds for a lifelong exploration of consciousness, intuition, and personal transformation.

Before stepping into the healing arts professionally, Jason spent years behind the lens as a photographer and video producer. His eye for visual storytelling evolved into a deeper calling—to help others rewrite the inner narratives that shape their lives. This led him to bodywork and energy healing, where he began holding space for others to reconnect with their own internal guidance systems.

Ultimately, hypnosis became the modality that tied it all together—a bridge between the mind, body, and spirit. Through hypnotherapy, Jason helps clients release anxiety, build confidence, and align with their highest self. His approach blends therapeutic technique with spiritual insight, always honoring the subconscious as a powerful, sacred ally.

Today, Jason runs Jason Shivers Healing Arts, where he offers online sessions and leads self-hypnosis classes. He also hosts The Shivers Effect podcast, spotlighting transformative conversations that shift consciousness and celebrate the magic of being human.

Experience

I specialize in helping clients navigate tinnitus, anxiety, fear, and grief—guiding them toward clarity, confidence, and inner peace. My work is rooted in the belief that each of us has a unique internal messaging system—a subconscious guidance mechanism—trying to lead us toward healing and wholeness. Through integrative hypnotherapy, therapeutic imagery, and spiritual insight, I help clients connect with that inner wisdom to foster personal transformation and soul-level growth.

With a background in massage therapy, Reiki, and energy work, my sessions often blend mind-body techniques to support emotional release, nervous system regulation, and intuitive awareness. Whether addressing the persistent hum of tinnitus or the ache of unresolved loss, my goal is to hold a compassionate space where clients can reconnect with their power and discover the messages waiting to be heard beneath the surface.
