What Does Hypnotherapy Feel Like? 

We begin with a consultation in person or by phone.  If hypnotherapy is a good approach for you, we will schedule a session or a series of sessions.  Most hypnotherapy programs include four or more sessions for complete transformation. 

Please wear comfortable clothing that allows you to breathe freely.  For office sessions, you will be invited to recline as far as you like in a zero-gravity hypnotherapy chair.  I will guide you through meditations that include results-oriented techniques and instructions tailored to your goals. 

The first session is a light meditation.  We aim to keep the conscious mind in communication with the subconscious.  I will ask you occasional questions during your meditation, and your responses will help me track your progress.  Some people feel tingling, lightness, or heaviness.  Your experience of hypnosis may change from session to session. 

​As we progress, you will be able to access realms of the mind that contain the power to transform from within.  As obstacles are released, you will feel lighter, happier, more balanced, and at ease in all situations.  I welcome you to experience the bliss of connecting to your own inner wisdom.

Reviews

"My naturopathic doctor recommended that I see Anna.  By my second session, my anxiety had gone from a 10 to a 2 and I realized I had been holding my breath for years out of fear and anxiety.  Anna has helped me unlock and release decades of trauma and triggers that were holding me back from enjoying my life. Hypnotherapy is real magic and Anna is the best."
~Lynda, Folsom

"My experiences with Anna have been life-changing.  Through her guidance and expertise, I've been able to tap into my inner wisdom and connect with my Self on a deeper level. Hypnotherapy has helped balance many aspects of my inner world, and has helped me function better in various areas of my life and with relationships with the world, others, and myself.  The biggest gift I've received through this process is to have found a deeper sense of self-love and seeing my worth.  I'm forever grateful."
~Gabriel, Marriage and Family Therapist, Sacramento

"Working with Anna has been amazing!  Talk therapy has worked for me, but hypnotherapy reaches to a different level.  After my first session I experienced a subtle shift that has fundamentally changed the way I see and react to things.  In my daily life I feel lighter and more grounded.  These sessions and the meditation exercises have given me valuable tools.  With less energy expended on reacting, I have found more focus and purpose!" 
~Erika, Attorney and Consultant, Sacramento

"My days are so full of joy, I am so blessed, thank you again for gently guiding me back to where I’m meant to be."

"The session you did for me today was extraordinary.  I felt significant changes in my entire being.  I feel lighter, more at ease, relieved, and just so happy.  I could feel old trauma just melting away, and the beginning of a new kind of energy in me."
~R.J., Educator, Sacramento

"Hypnotherapy was an extremely effective process for me. This tool turbo-charged my previous self-work.  Anna is fantastic and was very effective at guiding me while making the whole process easy and enjoyable."
~Chris, Business Owner, Sacramento

"Both open-minded and a skeptic, I wasn't sure what to expect.  Anna helped me find deeper healing and self-love where talk therapy left off.  I can take these gifts and finally move beyond childhood trauma holding me back in adulthood.  I'm so very grateful."
~Ginger, Sacramento

"My sessions with Anna were for anxiety from past health issues, but after my first few sessions I came to a realization that the anxiety was touching all aspects of my life, not just my health. Through Anna’s sensitive insightful guidance, hypnotherapy took me to a deeper place within myself. With the visuals Anna introduces, along with Anna’s calm demeanor during hypnotherapy, I found the tools to break through several blockages which in turn has enabled me to have more compassion and trust for myself in the choices I make for my life and future.  I would strongly recommend hypnotherapy with Anna, she is a treasure."
~Holly, Cancer Survivor, Roseville

"I have found more focus and purpose"

"Anna is a light in the world.  Her guided meditation is the finest I have encountered in my many years of meditation.  My love and thanks go out to her.  Namaste."
~Bill McCauley, Yoga Therapist, Sacramento

"Anna, words cannot describe my complete love and gratitude for all you have done and continue to do to help me in my healing journey.  I have had positive physical, emotional, and spiritual experiences since I've met you and I have been consistently participating in 'guided meditation.'  Not only am I benefitting from you, but all whom I come into contact with are also, as my heart and mind are in a better place.  I look forward to growing my own skills as we continue."
~Shelly, Educator and Cancer Warrior

"To me, there is no better therapy" 

"With Anna's guidance and unconditional love, I have moved even more obstacles out of my life these last eight weeks.  I feel more self-love than I have ever felt before, more grounded in the here and now, and more abundance than I could imagine to experience.  Life is as vibrant as it has ever been, and it's all thanks to Anna as well as myself for showing up to do the work.  I will be returning on the regular.  To me there is no better therapy."  
~Benjamin L., Sacramento

"Only one session with Anna was enough to make my back pain almost non-existent.  It was a true miracle.  Absolutely amazing.  I can't say enough good things about my experience.  Highly recommend!"  
​~College Student, Sacramento

"Working with Anna has been instrumental in changing my search for answers from an external to an internal process.  After sessions with Anna, I feel calm and rejuvenated, and I have come to understand that the positive energy she ignites during hypnotherapy comes from within me, not from some outside source. Anna's insight and intuitive sense of the spirit makes working with her an easy and enlightening experience. I would recommend working with Anna to anyone wanting to make a positive shift within their life. She radiates a beautiful energy and is truly gifted in helping people become their best selves!"
~Nicole, Nutrition Researcher and Educator, Ontario

"I worked with Anna the day before a 26 mile trail run.  The hypnotic instruction was for me to feel free and easy during the run.  And that is precisely what happened.  Also, somehow, calf and shin pain started going away right after the session.  By the next day, the pains were gone.  No pain during the run."  
~Ultra Runner, Elk Grove

"I feel calm and rejuvenated"

"Anna is amazing.  She has a gentle and caring soul.  She is very intuitive in her approach.  My husband was finally able to sleep 6-8 hours when before he was only sleeping 20 minutes at a time.  Anna has helped him better manage his anxiety, and gave him tools such as breathing techniques and guided meditations to further promote his healing process.  Not only did my husband gain back control of his life, but she also helped him rediscover who he truly is underneath all the emotional baggage that he was carrying.  I cannot thank Anna enough for empowering my husband to unlock his true potential."  
~​Julie, Sacramento

"Anna's calm voice, sweet demeanor, and keen insights made her a perfect hypnotherapist for me.  I enjoyed our time together and was able to break through some anxiety around showing my artwork."
~Jane, Artist, Sacramento

"My experience was life-changing"

"I've tried many different ways to lose weight.  They would work for a short amount of time and then I'd eventually cave to my cravings and the weight would come back and then some.  My biggest habit was soda.  I could not give it up.  After approximately three weeks, I no longer enjoy the taste of soda and the cravings are easier to ignore and fulfill with other healthier choices."
~Kerry Semrau, Sacramento

"Hypnotherapy has been worth the time and money versus going to the doctor and being prescribed a medication that will only place a temporary band-aid on the problem.  Hypnotherapy not only helps to uncover the root cause of the problem, but also provides the direction to a solution in a balanced, holistic, and healthy manner." 
~Julie, RN, Sacramento

 "Anna tailored each session to address my symptoms and issues.  Anna co-created the design of my healing with me which was empowering.  She is supportive and professional.  I felt the difference within myself and I feel better connected with myself.  I am not the same person that I was when I first started.  My experience was life-changing and it happened in a matter of a short time.  Thank you Anna for your help!"
~Jennifer T., Mental Health Counselor 

"Sessions with Anna have been absolutely amazing. Through these sessions she has helped me simplify reality and create clarity and awareness in my life. She has helped me to realize what is truly important to me and to focus my energy on that. By harnessing that energy and directing it in a more positive and meaningful way, it has flowed into my business. Whatever you really want to achieve in life and in your business, these sessions will steer you in the right direction. Thank you Anna. It has been a real joy."
~Telly Topakas, Realtor

"Hypnotherapy is an amazing way to reach your goals or to calm down.  Hypnotherapy helped me reach my goals about getting good grades." 
~Middle School Student, Sacramento

"I am now in a truly loving relationship"​

"Sessions with Anna are such a treat!  As a hypnotherapist myself, there are definitely times when I need a session to help move things that I can't quite do myself.  Anna's ability to listen to my challenges and then implement techniques that consistently work brings me into instant transformation!  These sessions have had such profound effects on my life.  Anna has such a magical spirit that is inspiring and uplifting.  I am so thankful to have the opportunity to work with her."  
~Sandy, Educator and Hypnotherapist

"As an eternal skeptic, I find it nothing short of stunning the impact Anna and hypnotherapy have had on my life.  Working in a high-stress environment whilst owning a brain that constantly misfires and battles against me, the peace and harmony I have discovered is allowing me respite from the chaos."
~Charlie S., Business Owner, Sacramento

"Anna was immediately so kind and welcoming.  She created a space that felt comfortable for this work to get done."
~Jordan, Student, Sacramento

"relaxing, insightful, and overflowing with joy and peace"

"Inner wisdom allowed me to fully comprehend and empathize with my father...I can finally say I have forgiven my father, fully.  I feel compassion, love, and empathy.  Nine years of hate and resentment disappeared during my hypnotherapy session."
~Gabriel, Sacramento

"I felt completely at ease with Anna.  She has a calm and welcoming disposition and she easily guided me in making goals for our sessions together.  I am a psychologist and I work with clients regularly on mastering the skill of changing states and emotions.  I found hypnotherapy to be surprisingly effective and enjoyable."  
~​Mary, Psychologist, Sacramento

"an easy and enlightening experience"

"I reached out to Anna when I was ill with pneumonia. It was at the onset of Covid-19 and we were feeling extremely anxious. Anna’s intuitive, gentle guidance helped me refocus on my health and unlock my immune system.  I’m sure her hypnotherapy contributed to not only getting well but in making a decision to have health and fitness a priority.  After I recovered I gave up sugar and flour and lost 25 pounds. It was actually quite easy to do.  I highly recommend Anna for hypnotherapy in dealing with any goal you have!"
~Judy Bakke, Teacher, Orangevale

"In just one session with Anna, I felt safe enough to see my oldest fear through imagery, and the courage to receive healing wisdom to begin addressing it.  Her insights were poetic, and I felt truly seen as my best self." 
~Spiritual Psychologist, San Francisco

"I came in thinking that it wouldn't work for my anxiety because everything else that I've tried hasn't.  I was wrong.  I can't even think of the word anxiety as I sit in her chair.  Anna has a soothing calmness about her that helps me to relax and process my worries." 
~J.M., Sacramento

"I feel lighter, more at ease"

"Take it from a former skeptic - hypnotherapy can absolutely work for you!  At the time I started hypnotherapy, I was being medicated for both anxiety and insomnia. However, with a recent diagnosis of fatty liver disease and pressure from my doctor to cut down on medications wherever possible to preserve my liver, I decided to look for treatment for anxiety/insomnia beyond my medical doctor.  I was very skeptical at first. As a person who thinks himself to be scientifically-minded, I often doubt and question things that I can't see, feel, or explain. However, I was desperate, and I decided to come to hypnotherapy with an open mind.  After one session, I instantly felt more relieved and drastically less anxious. In a short time, I was completely able to sleep peacefully through the night on my own without being medicated. It was incredible. I still can not fully explain why it works, but it definitely worked for me."
~Noel, Sacramento
