What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is the clinical application of hypnosis in psychotherapy. Hypnotherapy requires specialized training, and involves a skillful integration of clinical hypnosis and mindfulness techniques. It is an evidence-based treatment based on historic practices.
I am a Clinical Counseling Hypnotherapist, certified in a 100-hour trauma-informed training in clinical counseling hypnotherapy. This is a program solely for mental health professionals, so they can learn how to offer hypnosis in a clinical setting to treat mental health concerns.
