Biography for Saman Nasir, CCHt

Samy has spent twenty years being professionally obsessed with one question: why do smart, capable people keep getting in their own way? That question led her from Fortune 500 boardrooms to the subconscious mind and she never really looked back.

She’s a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and Honors Graduate of the Hypnosis Motivation Institute, an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist working with individuals, couples and families, and a PhD candidate in Transpersonal Psychology at Sofia University.

Her practice is based in Los Angeles but her clients are everywhere which makes sense, because the things that keep people stuck tend to be pretty universal. Her specialty is the gap between who someone knows they could be and who they’re actually being and what’s living in that gap that nobody has looked at yet.

Experience

Twenty years of working with people across wildly different contexts: Fortune 500 sales teams, private therapy clients, couples in crisis has taught Samy one consistent truth: insight alone doesn’t change anything. It has to move through the body, shift something underneath. That’s what drew her to hypnosis and that’s what keeps her there.

She specializes in anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, ADHD, and relationship patterns, especially the loops people can’t seem to exit no matter how much they understand them. Her clients range from high performers who are exhausted by their own drive to people rebuilding themselves from the ground up.
