If you've ever been "in the zone" with a performance or creative project, or fully engrossed in the emotions of a book or TV show, or even lost in your own daydreams, where the rest of the world disappears around you and you're in your own little corner of your mind, congrats! You've experienced a hypnotic trance.

Hypnosis is a tool that brings you into that trance-like state: a combination of relaxation and focused attention, which opens up the subconscious mind to new thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and beliefs.

In this relaxed, focused state, you're able to quiet your inner critic, limiting beliefs, fears, and resistance, and your subconscious becomes highly suggestible to rapid, effortless, positive transformation.

In our session together, I'll help guide you into this wonderful place in your mind, prompt you to tap into your imagination, and help you create the powerful changes needed to reach your biggest goals.

Hypnotherapy is nothing like what you see in the movies. It is NOT:

❎ Mind control or manipulation (you remain in control)
❎ Sleep (you stay fully awake)
❎ Dangerous (it's a natural, common state of consciousness that you can go in and out of at will)
❎ Embarrassing (these sessions are ALWAYS done with your best interest in mind, and you cannot be hypnotized into doing something you do not want to do)

The subconscious mind (95% of your brain function) is home to your beliefs, fears, desires, and instincts. It dictates how you feel, how you think, and how you take action.

And when your subconscious isn't 100% aligned with your goals (AKA if you've got old limiting beliefs, fears, self-doubt, etc.), it keeps you from pursuing those goals in an attempt to keep you safe.

This might show up as:

✨ stage fright or audition anxiety
✨ self-doubt, low confidence, constantly comparing yourself to other actors
✨ playing it "safe" in auditions/rehearsals instead of making bold choices
✨ feeling an urge to quit or change career paths right when opportunities are opening up
✨ forgetting lines
✨ distracting yourself with busywork instead of working toward your actual goals
✨ downplaying your wins and successes
✨ not fully, joyfully or boldly going for what you want

When we work directly with the subconscious mind using hypnosis, we can gently and rapidly reprogram your beliefs so that your subconscious feels safe in the pursuit of your big creative goals. From there, transformation starts to happen very quickly.

As a result...

✨ you start feeling more confident, bold, and creative in your work
✨ you show up fully and authentically in auditions
✨ auditions and performances feel playful and fun again
✨ you bounce back quickly from rejection and keep momentum going
✨ your talent and technique shines through
✨ you fall in love with performing all over again
✨ your energy becomes magnetic and you attract more opportunities
✨ you start booking roles that truly fit your talent and vision

Recent studies are also showing a strong link between visualization and acting/storytelling, which indicate that imagery-based activities of any kind (such as hypnosis) may enhance your imagination and performance abilities. So regardless of the content of your hypnosis session, it is strengthening the same parts of the brain that you need to succeed in your creative work.

Most people describe the experience of hypnosis as highly relaxing-yet-energizing, much like a deep meditation. The transformations that occur feel easy and effortless, and mental imagery is incredibly vivid.

Some folks remain entirely "conscious" and alert, while others go into a deep trance. Some experience vivid, imagined experiences as though they are real, while others take in the suggestions in other ways.

Everyone is different, and the depth of trance does not determine the effectiveness of the suggestions.

Most of my clients leave their hypnosis sessions feeling a wonderful blend of calm and energized, inspired and joyful. This feeling lingers and carries you throughout the rest of your day/week.

Additionally, all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. Throughout this process, you will go into a deeply relaxed state, but you remain in control the entire time. I will offer suggestions to you based on your goals, and ultimately you decide whether to accept/reject/alter them in any way.

In our session (on Zoom), we’ll begin by chatting briefly about hypnosis, what you can expect from the process, and of course I'll answer any questions you may have about the techniques before we dive in.

We'll discuss your goals for the session and in your career overall so that we can create a hypnotic experience that caters exactly to your desired outcomes.

From there, I’ll guide you through a personalized hypnosis experience, which is entirely collaborative and you are in control the entire time.

I’ll invite you to get comfortable, close your eyes, relax your body, and focus your attention so that you can more easily experience the guided imagery and suggestions. From this place, you'll be invited to explore mental imagery and suggestions that are specifically targeted to help you create the changes you want to make in your brain and your work. This portion of the experience is incredibly inspiring, fun, and uplifting. To conclude, I will guide you back to an energized, alert state so you are able to easily move through the rest of your day.

Depending on the topic of the session, I may also provide you with some brain training and self hypnosis techniques that you can utilize on your own.

You'll notice a shift almost instantly.

These sessions are designed to create rapid shifts in your subconscious, meaning you'll see changes in your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors very quickly, and the effects of subconscious work like this are meant to be long-lasting.

While hypnosis may feel effortless on your part, your subconscious is doing a lot of work behind the scenes. So after these sessions, I always recommend that you take extra care to hydrate, eat well, sleep a bit longer than normal, journal about your hypnosis experience, and feed your mind with uplifting input (ex: no horror films, stressful news headlines, heavy conversations, etc.) in the few days following the session if you are able. This allows your mind the space to really integrate the positive work we've established. 

Short answer: it depends.

This work can create lasting shifts in a single session. However, for those deeply rooted, stubborn beliefs that have been around for a long time, it can be beneficial to do several follow up sessions to reinforce this reprogramming. After your first session, we can get an idea of how many might be needed.

Hypnosis and subconscious mind coaching are not therapy, nor is it a replacement for working with a licensed therapist.

In these sessions, I do not diagnose or treat clinical mental health conditions.

 The difference is in the approach:

• Therapy is primarily a conscious process. It helps you consciously reflect, process emotions, and navigate life’s challenges with the guidance of a licensed mental health specialist. It provides ongoing support, insight, and a reliable space to work through whatever arises in your life.
• Hypnosis is a goal-focused process that works directly with the subconscious mind (the part of your brain responsible for habits, beliefs, and automatic responses). By speaking the language of the subconscious and targeting specific beliefs and blocks, this allows for faster shifts in confidence, performance, and creativity, as well as bigger transformations in mindset and behavior. Unlike therapy, it's not a place to unpack all of your past experiences; but rather to offer your brain new experiences for rapid change.

You might think of therapy as navigating life and working through your history to heal, while hypnosis focuses on your present and future to help you perform at your best, rewire limiting beliefs, and create new neural pathways that support your success in specific areas of your life.

Hypnosis is also a fantastic tool to pair with therapy! Many of my clients who work with a licensed therapist like to unpack their discoveries and transformations from hypnosis with their therapist in the same week.
