Hello! I’m a Hypno-Psychotherapist specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Hypnotherapy (CBH). I blend hypnosis techniques with a CBT model and mindfulness to help you manage strong emotions and help you change your thinking and behavior. My focus includes anxiety disorders, depression, habits, phobias, low self-esteem, insomnia, and anger management.
You may have tried CBT or hypnosis before without achieving the results you wanted. If so, CBH could be a valuable option to explore. By integrating these approaches, we can enhance their effectiveness and tailor them to your unique needs.
I can guide you in letting go of negative, anxious thoughts and teach you how to challenge the more difficult ones. Together, we’ll work on transforming negative behaviors and enhancing your resilience and coping skills. My primary goal is to empower you to become your own therapist, equipping you with the tools and techniques necessary to make your challenges feel more manageable.
Cognitive Behavioral Hypnotherapy is a forward-thinking approach grounded in solid evidence and advancements in cognitive research. It focuses on treating current problems and symptoms in the present moment, emphasizing our capacity for change. While we cannot undo the past, we can change how we respond to challenges today and in the future.
CBH combines the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with hypnosis, enhancing therapy by inducing deep relaxation and focused attention. Rather than relying on traditional trance states, CBH explains hypnosis as a state of heightened receptivity to positive suggestions. This approach leverages both negative self-hypnosis in hypnotherapy and negative automatic thinking in CBT to modify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors.
The therapeutic relationship is crucial in this process, as it establishes a safe space for exploration and growth. I prioritize building a supportive rapport where you won’t feel rushed and your voice will be truly heard. You are the expert on your own experiences, and your opinions and views will always be valued. Our work together will be a collaborative effort, where we jointly explore your challenges and co-create solutions. My aim is to make you an active participant in your healing journey, teaching you self-hypnosis and CBT techniques that empower you to continue your progress even after therapy has concluded.
My therapy is rooted in evidence-based principles, adhering to the latest research in Psychology, CBT, and hypnotherapy. I take a person-centered and holistic approach, considering your unique needs and goals. I am also neurodivergent-informed and trauma-informed, adapting my methods to ensure effective support.
Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan designed to help you achieve your therapy goals and improve your overall well-being.
