Hypnotherapy
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy, also referred to as guided hypnosis, is a form of psychotherapy that uses relaxation, extreme concentration, and intense attention to achieve a heightened state of consciousness or mindfulness. In other words, it places the individual into a “trance” or altered state of awareness.
This form of therapy is considered alternative medicine with the purpose of utilizing one’s mind to help reduce or alleviate a variety of issues, such as psychological distress, phobias, and unhealthy, destructive, or dangerous habits (i.e. smoking and/or drinking). The aim of hypnotherapy is to create a positive change in an individual, while he/she is in a state of unconsciousness or slumber (sleep). (By Dr. R. Y. Langham, Ph.D. | Updated: June 22, 2019)

“After over a year of contemplating hypnosis, I finally went in and couldn’t be happier I did. I was looking for relief with my anxiety and insomnia. I accomplished that and took away far more. In 6 sessions, over the course of 2 months, I’ve been able to reduce and eliminate the use of medication I was using to treat these two issues. Hypnotherapy, especially with Theresa, has been an experience that truly everyone can benefit from.”
