What If You Know What You Want to Change… But Something Keeps Pulling You Back?
You can consciously know what you want.
You may tell yourself you're going to stop worrying, change the habit, feel more confident, let go of the past, or respond differently — and yet the same thoughts, emotions, reactions, or behaviors keep showing up.
That's because not everything we do is driven by the conscious mind.
Hypnotherapy helps you work with subconscious thoughts, beliefs, associations, emotions, and learned patterns that may lie beneath the problem.
What Is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy uses focused attention and relaxation to help you work with the subconscious mind — the part of the mind where many automatic thoughts, beliefs, associations, emotional responses, and learned patterns are stored.
During hypnosis, you are not asleep or unconscious, and you don't lose control. You can hear, think, speak, and remain aware of what's happening.
Instead, hypnosis creates a deeply focused state where we can intentionally work with subconscious patterns and begin creating new responses.
You are always in control. Hypnotherapy simply gives us another way to communicate with the part of your mind that may be holding onto the old pattern.
“Taking the scary out of hypnotherapy — taking the ‘no’ out of hypnosis.”
— Dr. Shelly Jo
What Can Hypnotherapy Help With?
People seek hypnotherapy for many different reasons. Some want to change a behavior. Others want to change how they feel, think, or respond.
Hypnotherapy may be helpful for:
• Anxiety, worry & stress
• Fears & phobias
• Confidence & self-esteem
• Habits & unwanted behaviors
• Emotional eating & food-related patterns
• Addictive & compulsive patterns
• Motivation & procrastination
• Sleep & relaxation
• Performance & reaching goals
• Limiting beliefs
• Emotional patterns & past experiences
• Personal growth & creating positive change
Sometimes the behavior you want to change isn't the real problem — it's a symptom of something deeper. That's why I believe in getting to the root.
My Approach: Getting to the Root
I don't believe in looking at just one piece of the problem. Thoughts, emotions, behaviors, brain chemistry, nutrition, and subconscious patterns can all be connected.
That's why I use a whole-person approach:
FEED YOUR BRAIN
Support the brain with the nutrients and amino acids it needs for healthy brain chemistry.
FUEL YOUR BODY
Give your body the nutrition and support it needs to function at its best.
FREE YOUR EMOTIONS
Use hypnotherapy to identify and update subconscious thoughts, beliefs, associations, and emotional patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
When we look at the brain, body, and emotions together, we can begin looking beyond the symptom to what may actually be driving it.
“When you get to the root of the problem, the problem goes away.”
What Happens in a Hypnotherapy Session?
Every person is different, so every session begins with a simple question:
“How can I help you?”
We'll talk about what you want to change, what you've already tried, and what may be contributing to the thoughts, feelings, behaviors, or patterns you're experiencing.
From there, I'll guide you into a comfortable, focused hypnotic state. Together, we can explore and work with the subconscious patterns connected to the change you want to make.
You don't have to know where the problem started or have all the answers before you come in. That's part of the work we do together.
My goal isn't simply to help you manage a symptom. It's to help you discover what may be underneath it and create change at the root.
Ready to See What Hypnotherapy Can Help You Change?
You don't have to keep repeating the same pattern simply because it's familiar.
Whether you want to change a habit, release an old emotional response, build confidence, overcome a fear, or simply feel more like yourself again, hypnotherapy may help you work with what's happening beneath the surface.
You know what you want to change. Let's work together to help your subconscious mind get on board.
