Hypnotherapy · New York
Explore the concerns this hypnotherapy work addresses, from anxiety and persistent stress to relationship patterns, changes in identity, and compulsive behavior.
The areas below can help you recognize a relevant starting point. You do not need to choose a service or know the origin of the difficulty before we speak; the consultation helps clarify what is happening and whether this approach fits.
You are not here because something is new.
You are here because something has continued —
and stopped responding to effort.
Anxiety that escalates in certain situations
while remaining manageable in others.
Relational dynamics that pull you into the same position
regardless of who is involved.
Loss of direction at critical points,
even when the decision felt clear beforehand.
Execution that changes under pressure
despite your preparation and awareness.
The situations differ.
What you recognize is something repeating in your own response.
Something underneath it repeats.
A condition is met.
Something shifts inside you.
From there, the outcome follows a known path.
The response feels familiar,
even when it is not what you want now.
My work looks beyond the behavior you want to change to the experience surrounding it.
What happens when you are challenged, asked for something, evaluated, or about to commit? What do you anticipate? What becomes difficult to say, feel, or do?
We work directly with the emotional responses, expectations, and meanings involved, rather than only describing the outcome afterward.
Similar difficulties do not necessarily have the same origin. The direction comes from exploring your experience, not assigning an explanation in advance.
Previous therapy, practical strategies, and insight remain valuable. We consider what they have changed and what still needs attention.
What we explore
What guides the work
This work is organized into four established areas.
Each presents differently depending on context.
Performance & Self-Regulation
Pressure that doesn't ease, anxiety that escalates under specific conditions, overthinking that won't resolve, trouble resting, procrastination, or self-sabotage at the moments that matter most.
performance & self-regulation workRelational Patterns
Difficulty holding a boundary or saying what you need, finding yourself in the same position relationship after relationship, or losing your own judgment once another person reacts.
relational patterns workSelf, Identity & Life Transitions
A role that's changing, uncertainty about direction, a sense of disconnection from yourself, or the internal adjustment a major external change is asking of you.
identity & life transitions workCompulsive Behavior
Returning to a behavior you intend to stop or limit, more often than you intend to. Some presentations need specialist care alongside this work — that's part of what a consultation sorts out.
compulsive behavior workFor people interested in exploring spiritual questions or regression-based experiences, transpersonal and regression hypnotherapy offers a separate route.
Transpersonal and regression hypnotherapy
If you are looking for information about hypnosis and depression, the article below explains the scope of this practice and the importance of clinical care. Maintaining work and daily responsibilities does not rule out depression.
The work combines an initial assessment, hypnotherapy, and integration into the situations that matter to you. For the fuller explanation of the approach, see how the method works.
The process does not start with selecting a service.
It starts with a conversation about what's actually happening.
The work begins with a consultation.
It is not a general conversation, and you do not need to have it figured out beforehand.
The consultation discusses the difficulty, what you'd like to be different, what you've already tried, and whether this is a fit.
If appropriate, a paid assessment explores the difficulty more thoroughly and establishes a proposed direction for the work.
From there, you review the offer — what's involved, and the terms — before anything proceeds.
New York sessions take place privately by Zoom. Read about preparing for your appointment and what to expect when meeting online.
For clients in Brooklyn, the same work is offered online without travel to a practice location.
Begin with a consultation
Tell me what has been happening and what you would like to be different.
You do not need to explain its origin or choose a container before we speak.
The consultation is not a general conversation.
It's where we talk about what's happening, what you've already tried,
and whether this is the right next step for you.
