Insights on Transformation & Hypnotherapy

Have you ever felt more confident about your team’s chances of winning simply because you were wearing your “lucky” shirt? While it may seem trivial, this is a simple example of something much deeper—the placebo effect.

Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach that uses deep relaxation and focused attention to access the subconscious mind. In this receptive state, long-standing emotional patterns, habits, and stress responses can be explored and gently shifted. In my hypnotherapy practice in Asheville, I work with individuals who are seeking meaningful change, often after realizing that willpower or surface-level strategies have not been enough.

I was interviewed by Dr. Nicole Lindsey of Back in Balance Chiropractic in Asheville, NC, for a conversation on overwhelm, anxiousness, and how stress patterns get reinforced in the nervous system over time. We covered what hypnotherapy is (and what it isn’t), why many stress responses aren’t “logical problems,” and a few simple tools you can use immediately to shift your state when you feel activated.
