Biography for Rebecca A. Shkeyrov, CHt

I believe that mental healthcare should be an enjoyable and enlightening experience that starts to return results to clients in a matter of weeks, not years.

As an integrative hypnotherapist, I weave together the best techniques derived from neuroscience and somatic, cognitive, and energy modalities in my practice. I am dedicated to equipping my clients with the essential insights and resources needed to effect profound and lasting changes by teaching them how to reclaim authority over their subconscious minds. With the right tools and guidance, anyone can dismantle distressing triggers, shed unwanted habits, manage physical ailments, and achieve personal goals with newfound mastery.

How does this happen? Let’s use this analogy: when hiking, people follow the trail. It’s an easy-to-follow, clear pathway that makes us feel safe. The subconscious mind works the same way. Our habits create neural pathways that are like hiking trails in the mind. We keep doing the same things whether or not we consciously want to.

I’ll help you clear out stumps and rocks to build new and better pathways. With time, the brain starts to automatically follow the new trails, the new neural pathways we’ve strengthened during hypnosis. The old trails with unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors get covered in grass and fade away.

Let’s build new pathways that bring you joy and fulfillment. You deserve peace, freedom, and success!

Rebecca has a great energy, and a very calming and reassuring voice… I would recommend her to anybody who is open to hypnosis!
