Journey into Hypnosis.
Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness where one has heightened awareness while also profoundly relaxed. It can feel similar to guided meditation. However, one important distinction is that meditation helps clear the mind while hypnosis creates change.
Hypnosis has varying depths -- a lighter state of hypnosis may be more effective for some presenting issues while a deeper state is for others. The experience varies between individuals. However, all experience deep relaxation.
You have actually been in hypnosis several times today. Whether it’s driving on auto-pilot, feeling immersed in a movie or story, daydreaming, or even when transitioning between awake and sleep. Your mind is simply more open to suggestions at these times.
In scientific terms, hypnosis occurs when brain waves are moving at the alpha and theta frequency when you are relaxed but mentally alert. This is the state that is best for learning. Hypnotherapy uses this state to your advantage -- positive suggestions for desired change is readily accepted by the subconscious mind.
About Hypnotherapy.
Hypnotherapy sessions combine talk therapy and hypnosis. The client undergoes hypnosis for the latter 15-30 minutes of the session depending on the issue. The hypnosis integrates insights from the therapy session into the subconscious. The client leaves the session feeling relaxed, centered, and empowered towards change.
Testimonials.
Odel H. - Relationship with Money
It started as an exploration of possibilities to change my relationship with money. Since the beginning, I noticed her sympathy, care, and patience. I know I'm a lot to take on and I expect people that work with me to have a high level of engagement and intelligence. Clarissa has it all. I've seen, felt, and witnessed how doors have opened for me. It’s not just about the money. The work that she does with me requires insight and meaningful exercises to access and change patterns in subconscious mind. She has guided me in ways I never thought I could. I've navigated old beliefs and replaced them with new and better ones. I encourage you to spend time working on yourself. Clarissa is the way to go. If you put the effort, she will help you immensely. I am so grateful to have her!
Kristina Z. - Habit Change
Clarissa is an angel! My hypnotherapy sessions with her have created a positive shift in my habits and thought patterns around my relationship with myself especially. I've struggled with low-self worth since I was a child where I picked up the habit of Trichotillomania (hair-pulling) at a very young age and have carried it with me into adulthood.
Being that Trich is a type of coping mechanism for anxiety, I have battled it throughout the years to replace it with healthier coping mechanisms, such as meditation, positive-affirmations, etc. However, this habit is so deeply ingrained into my subconscious that it was time to seek help from a professional. I had heard hypnotherapy is the most effective in habit-reversal so I was curious to give it a try. I wanted to understand the root of the cause and Clarissa helped me through this tremendously. During the first two sessions, I had several revelations as to why I pull. 2 months later, the urge to pull is completely gone.
Janelle W. - Romantic Relationships
Clarissa has completely changed my life with hypnotherapy. Not only is she intelligent, intuitive and skilled, but she is also graced with incredible kindness, approachability and passion to make significant impact on her clients’ lives. She has personally helped me in aspects of relationships, stress management, adjustments, sleep, and opened my mind to new perspectives, which I would've never known otherwise. I feel like she has healed a rocky part of my relationship which bubbled away for almost 2 years in 1 session — she's that amazing. Living far away is no issue as Clarissa has completed FaceTime sessions with me, which I have found equally as powerful and impactful as face-to-face.
