What Is Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses hypnosis to promote healing and positive change. It helps address emotional, mental, and physical conditions by working directly with the subconscious mind.
The word “hypnosis” originates from the Greek term hypnos, meaning sleep. Yet hypnosis isn’t sleep—it’s a state of relaxed awareness where your focus turns inward, allowing deep transformation while remaining fully conscious.
Cynthia uses hypnotherapy both as a healing practice and a tool for personal growth, helping clients shift perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors for a healthier, more balanced life.
What Hypnotherapy Can Help With
Research shows that hypnotherapy is effective in treating a wide range of conditions, including:
Anxiety, depression, and PTSD
Stress and sleep disorders
Chronic pain and fatigue
Addictions and unhealthy habits
Obesity and eating patterns
Blood pressure regulation and immune support
Studies have shown that clients receiving cognitive-behavioral hypnotherapy often achieve more significant results than those receiving non-hypnotic treatments.
How Hypnotherapy Works
If you carry deep emotional wounds or limiting beliefs, hypnotherapy can help bring healing and perspective.
Cynthia guides you into a relaxed, focused state where the conscious mind quiets and the subconscious becomes accessible. Using verbal cues, repetition, and mental imagery, she helps you safely revisit past memories or beliefs that shaped your current experiences.
In this state, you can explore moments from childhood or key life events that formed false narratives—such as I’m not enough or I’m unlovable. Hypnotherapy allows you to reassign new meaning to those memories, replacing pain with understanding and empowerment.
The Hypnotic Experience
People often describe hypnosis as feeling deeply calm yet fully aware—like being “zoned in” on a thought while tuning out distractions. It’s a heightened state of awareness, not a loss of control.
During a session, you remain conscious, ethical, and in charge of your choices. Cynthia’s role is to guide you into focused awareness where true transformation happens gently and naturally.
Common Benefits of Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy can offer both immediate relief and lasting change. Common results include:
Deep relaxation and stress reduction
Enhanced focus and mental clarity
Relief from chronic anxiety or phobias
Improved sleep and energy levels
Greater emotional resilience and confidence
Science-Based Applications
1. Sleep Disorders
Hypnosis helps calm the mind, making it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep naturally.
2. Anxiety
Hypnosis activates the body’s relaxation response, helping manage fear, phobias, and chronic stress.
3. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Hypnotherapy can reduce IBS symptoms such as bloating, constipation, fatigue, and nausea by relaxing the digestive system.
4. Chronic Pain
Clients with arthritis, migraines, or back pain often find hypnosis helps reframe their experience of pain, reducing discomfort and promoting calm.
5. Smoking and Vaping
Hypnosis retrains the subconscious to release the habit and replace it with healthier actions. Cynthia helps clients associate smoking with unpleasant sensations while reinforcing positive alternatives.
6. Weight Loss and Healthy Habits
Cynthia uses a specialized technique called Gastric Band Hypnosis, guiding you through a symbolic “procedure” where your subconscious mind adopts new behaviors—creating healthier relationships with food and exercise.
What You’ll Experience During a Session
Each session is relaxing and restorative. You’ll begin with gentle breathing and visualization, entering a state of calm awareness. Cynthia’s soothing voice guides you inward while the outside world fades into the background.
You may feel:
A sense of detachment from physical surroundings
Heightened focus on your inner experience
A pleasant, tranquil stillness
Emotional release or profound clarity
Most clients leave feeling lighter, more peaceful, and empowered to make lasting changes.
Why Hypnotherapy Works
The subconscious mind stores everything you’ve ever experienced—even the emotions and beliefs you’ve long forgotten. When you bypass the conscious mind, you can access and reprogram those deep-seated patterns.
This process helps you align your thoughts and emotions with your desired reality—creating space for healing, confidence, and growth.
