Biography for Kelly Leightner, CHt
Kelly Leightner is a Certified Hypnotherapist who specializes in helping individuals create lasting change by working with the subconscious mind rather than relying on willpower alone. She works with clients on habits, confidence, anxiety, fears, mindset, and personal growth, helping them move from feeling stuck to creating meaningful change.
Before becoming a hypnotherapist, Kelly spent many years working in communication, sales, and coaching, where she saw firsthand that knowledge alone does not create change—behavior and results change when the subconscious mind is involved. This realization led her to study hypnotherapy, NLP, and other subconscious change techniques so she could help people create real, lasting transformation.
Kelly combines hypnotherapy with techniques such as Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), NLP, and relaxation training to help clients reduce stress, build confidence, and change unwanted habits. She works primarily with clients over Zoom, allowing her to help people regardless of location.
Kelly is especially passionate about helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated because they know what they should be doing but are not doing it. She believes people are not broken—they are patterned, and when the subconscious patterns change, behavior and results change naturally.
Her goal is to help clients create lasting change, greater confidence, and more control over their lives by learning how to work with their subconscious mind instead of against it.
