Biography for Nora E. Stefanescu, CHt

Nora had avant-garde ideas since she was an adolescent and as soon as she was old enough to leave the nest, she left her original homeland Romania in search for her creative expression in foreign countries. From a very young age, people were gravitating toward her kind and soothing demeanor, because she seemed to be able to put everyone at ease.

Nora is an artist and a healing facilitator committed to helping people transform their lives through hypnosis. She is a Certified Hypnotherapist and a Life Coach, with formal education, training and expertise in linguistics, foreign languages, media design, and marketing.

In her practice as a Hypnotherapist, Nora is assisting clients in achieving their personal and professional goals in such areas as habit modification, stress reduction, smoking cessation, sports performance, past life regression, overcoming fears and performance anxiety, mental blocks and negative self-talk, increasing self-confidence and self-esteem.

Nora is a firm believer in and practitioner of TM (Transcendental Meditation), a meditation technique developed by the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the 1950's India. It is a method for relaxation, stress reduction, and self-development widely practiced around the globe. Meditation and hypnotherapy go hand in hand. Both have a calming and relaxing effect on the subconscious mind and body, helping the brain release unwanted and unnecessary overloading information.

Nora has devoted time to the study and research of language, neuro-science, neuro-plasticity of the brain, psychology, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), and has experienced trauma-therapy such as EMDR.
