Hypnotherapy

Let’s start by taking all the old paradigms out of this equation that no longer apply to what being a hypno-therapist entails in today's world. 

I’m talking about those who might recall the stage antics of the comedians from back in the 50’s that would swing a pocket watch to and fro and would place the unsuspecting volunteer into a trance-like state. That activity then led the participant to “quack like a duck”   with little more provocation than a request followed by the applause from the audience.

That scenario no longer applies in this day and age, fortunately.

Hypno-therapy is a gentle means of quieting the  over-active state of the mind, to generate potential solutions to the issues and problems that get blocked by the chaos of day to day living. YOUR problems, your mind and your roadblocks.

I’ll assume if you’re still reading..there’s either a curiosity or a sincere interest in finding out what this specialty could offer you.

Imagine, in this fast paced world of social media existence…that is neither social nor anywhere that you might want to actually EXIST.

Then consider how unsatisfying that continuous “scrolling” has become, looking for answers…moving at a pace that leaves questions unresolved, barely a snippet of information before moving on…it’s become an exhausting exercise day after day.

 Exercise, ha! If it were only that.

Sure you could ask an A-I’s help with minimal human involvement. You might be dealing with long standing frustrations regarding how to push past depression or unwanted behaviors, maybe not know exactly how to move forward…but is that really the connection that you’re looking for?

Today's world is not just fast paced. There’s no belly shot or arm patch that will smooth out that path that has gone all bumpy and unfamiliar.

THE problems in today's world are NOT going to respond to the way you solved them back in the day…and you know it.

There are answers that you seek that have been buried deep inside your rational mind…hypnosis brings you to that doorway again and helps you to explore options that are relatable to your way of thinking, now, as an adult.

Re-read the title of this piece…and if that alone helps get you back on track…just drop me a line to say “thanks”...If not, call…and let’s find out where your starting point might be…together.

One of the professional roles that I have embraced passionately in this lifetime was choosing to become a nationally certified hypno-therapist.

Rather than offer my Bio…or a list from A-Z, of those issues that I’ve helped people to navigate through quite successfully, why not consider a chat with a real person whose training in this specialty might lead to the potential for the solutions you are seeking.

Pat Larsen is a nationally certified hypno-therapist who has been working with real people with real issues for over 10 years offering her confident approach to lighting paths. Most people think “forcing” a change works…it doesn’t. When you stop fighting yourself-everything changes.

One phone call can shed light on whether this might be the direction you are seeking…it’s that easy to start the conversation. If it’s not the right match, we’ll both know…but call. No obligation means just a few minutes of my time and yours to discuss what you’re hoping to achieve.
