A deep meditative or trance state with a higher level of focus and concentration allows information stored in the subconscious mind to become more accessible. Hypnosis is considered an altered state of consciousness that allows the rational mind to take a back seat and gives the client access to the subconscious.
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic process that helps you gain insight and perspective into intrusive thought patterns, complex emotions, subconscious belief systems, and repressed/suppressed emotional and behavioral patterns. This insight and perspective will ultimately lead to a happier and healthier lifestyle
Some other benefits include:
Extinguish the intensity of anxiety, panic, and fear.

We use a comforting and supportive induction process that allows you to feel as safe as possible. The induction process uses a combination of guided instructions, imagery, breathing, and music to reach a trance state. Clients report being in a trance state similar to a deep state of meditation.
- Hypnotherapy works within the subconscious mind where negative belief systems stemming from traumatic experiences are stored. Once the subconscious mind is accessed, clients are able to begin changing distortions and emotional confusion associated with the trauma.
- No, While in a state of hypnosis the client is still in control. Any suggestions or recommendations given by the therapist can be rejected by the client. If you decide you no longer want to proceed, you will simply open your eyes to come out of the trance.

It is your choice if you would like to lie down or stay sitting up. Your therapist will give you a moment to center yourself and take your own breath while the music is playing before starting.

The setting is calm, relaxing, and grounded. Your therapist will hold this space for you so you can do your therapeutic work.
- Hypnosis and hypnotherapy can feel vulnerable. Often more so than traditional therapy. A client and their therapist needs to feel a comfortable level of trust. Each client reach’s this point at different times.
