I have been fascinated with hypnosis since I can remember…
It seemed like magic to me, and it was-I just didn’t know it yet. While I was certain the hypnotic trance was a real thing, I had no concrete confirmation for myself that it could do anything remotely magical for dealing with the realities of the world.
After enough back and forth without change in my life, I realized how little influence I had on my own automatic behaviors and patterns. I didn’t like who I was and I was constantly fighting with myself.
The learnings and insights I gained from my education at the Hypnosis Motivational Institute and SUNY Brockport gave me all the resources that I didn’t know I needed to change my reality. With guidance and determination, I put hypnotic modalities and NLP techniques to the test to:
- release limiting beliefs and decisions
- overcome personal challenges of anxieties and addictions
- attract outcomes in areas of relationships, career, creativity, and fitness
And it will work for you too– to help you get out of your own way.

Credentials
Bachelors of Science at SUNY Brockport:
For my undergrad, I Majored in Psychology with focuses in Mindfulness Meditation, and Motivational Psychology. I absorbed and learned all of the current, reputable, knowledge for those going into the psychology field and throughout this time, I studied NLP and Hypnosis as if it was part of my education. I was blending the two as I went through my 4 year study and I feel this gave me sturdy foundations. I also minored in communication studies and music.
Certifications:
I am currently in residency at HMI, under senior staff supervision heading towards a 720 hr accreditation. In my 300 hour training at HMI we covered an immense variety of modalities, approaches, and tools for hypnosis and working with the subconscious mind. Of immense importance has also been the approaches to therapy and conscious/subconscious motivations I have learned. I’ve worked with experts in each domain, this school puts graduates far ahead of weekend course hypnotists.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming is the modality that made the difference for me and initially drew me to pursue hypnotherapy as a career and passion. In this training course with Joe Tabanella through the American Hypnosis Association, I studied and modeled what works and how it works with helping individuals and ourselves to foster internal change. This course was a comprehensive dive into how some of the best therapists have worked differently and what we can learn from them to modify our approach for each client. I learned a number of techniques that were really just the chassis for the underlying principles of success that I employed to change my own life during this training course. NLP is the study of what works- and how to speak the language of neurology to recode the human mind.
Mental Emotional Release is one of those techniques I learned to perfect through the NLP training which makes the difference in releasing the limiting beliefs and decisions we are often unaware that we have made. By using NLP to uncover subconscious patterns, we can then use MER to rewrite and recode our life script- removing all the old unwanted charges from our live story and replacing with positive learnings that empower you in your today and tomorrow.
Milton Erikson is one of the most acclaimed hypnotherapists of all time, with unconventional strategies and amazing successes, his language patterns were studied by the founders of NLP to teach others how to influence clients in the same way. Eriksonian hypnosis is based on the understanding that we have all we need within to enact positive change we desire and by opening a line of communication with the subconscious and speaking its language, we can naturally draw those resources up from with and use them to grow.
As a professional member of the American Hypnosis Association, I am dedicated to having my practice grow with me through the times and keeping myself updated with the latest hypnotherapy methods and information available to help my clients.
