Linda has had great success working with clients with challenges such as clearing negative self-talk, relationship strategies, confidence, motivation, healthy habits, fears and anxieties, weight loss, and helping to create a happy fulfilling life.

Linda is also a published author with two Pinnacle Book Achievement awards, a certified Health & Life Coach, as well as a Certified Reiki Master Healer. She is a member of the American Hypnosis Association (AHA) and the Hypnotherapists Union Local 472 since 2021.

Experience

Linda began her journey into the healing modalities and hypnosis after thirty plus years as a hairstylist and color expert. Her love for people and natural curiosity for the subconscious minds affect on human behavior prompted her to action. No stranger to abandonment or the harsh realities of being a single parent, she sought to educate, forgive and empower herself to move forward through life with “practical skills” and grace.

After pursuing her Reiki healing journey and four certifications as a Health & Life Coach, she realized the true mind-body-spirit connection was deeply entangled with the subconscious mind. She sought to unlock this powerful force of human behavior with the “key” of hypnosis. Hypnosis Motivation Institute made this dynamic piece of the puzzle possible. Not only reinforcing modalities she had already been learning, but introducing a sea of amazing insights and new applicable techniques to her arsenal.

Linda is forever changed and grateful for her experience with the Hypnosis Motivation Institute, considering it an honor to share what she has been privileged to learn in serving her clients. Believing that we each have the birthright to choose our own destiny and sometimes a little help is all we need to get there.
