Experience

I help clients with a fear and/or phobia of driving a car, start driving again, gaining the much sought after independence they desire.

For those that struggle with insomnia, I give them tools such as breathing exercises and MP3s to listen to of our sessions so that they can associate the relaxed state of hypnosis with their nightly experience of going to sleep.

I especially enjoy working with clients who lack self esteem or the confidence to feel their true value, ultimately helping them see their inner worth and unleashing all of their gifts.
