Clinical Hypnotherapist~NLP Practitioner ~Reiki Practitioner, Hypnotherapy Academy of America Santa Fe, New Mexico Hypnotherapy is a modality for communicating positive ideas and understandings. That is, the client, hearing the words and delivery by the practitioner, begins a line of thought and forms new associations. Each set of association is then further linked and associated to new ideas, understandings, and possibilities. Consequently, bypassing or breaking conditioned clusters of negative experiences and beliefs help the client construct a new map of reality and facilitate cure. In the words of Milton Erickson, “It is this experience of re-associating and reorganizing his own (Client’s) experiential life that eventuates in a cure”. Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a theory of language, communication and thought together with an associated therapeutic method, which holds that people can improve the way they interact with the world by means of certain principles and techniques concerned with their use of language. People can use NLP’s principles and techniques to represent their world better, learn and communicate better, and ultimately have better, fuller, and richer lives. Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that promotes healing. Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy to break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reiki clears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

My goal is to empower you to reach your maximum potential ~ allowing you to become the person you want to be. This includes working with children and adults, who are preparing for chemotherapy, medical procedures, recovering from accidents or surgery, have acute or chronic illnesses, who are suffering from pain, or who have not reached the desired degree of improvement through medical treatment. I do this in several different ways~ Reiki which is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. Hypnosis, which is a natural, yet altered pleasant state, in which people can achieve phenomenal levels of focus, peace and joy. The power of suggestion working within our mind gets stronger on whatever thoughts we are thinking about or NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming) “a model of interpersonal communication chiefly concerned with the relationship between successful patterns of behaviors and the subjective experiences (patterns of thought) underling them” and “a system of alternative therapy based on this which seeks to educate people in self-awareness and effective communication, and to change their patterns of mental and emotional behaviors’”
