Helping others heal is a true passion of mine. My goal is to help guide my clients find happiness and live their lives to the fullest. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, stress, fears/phobias, pain, limiting beliefs, smoke cessation, or weight loss, hypnosis can enhance your abilities and provide you with the tools needed to help change what’s holding you back - the repetitive negative thoughts, the self sabotaging habits, and more. I believe we are capable of making any change we desire for ourselves.

Are you ready to being your transformational journey to a healthier you but aren't sure if hypnosis can work for you? Please feel free to schedule a free phone consultation via the online booking calendar. I'd be happy to talk to you and learn about your objectives and how we can work together to help you achieve your goals. I offer virtual/online sessions serving the Houston/Galveston Bay Area, United States and globally.

Thank you for your interest in The HypnoGroup and I look forward to working with you.

Des Moines, Washington

I am here to help you lead a happier, healthier life. My background is in clinical behavioral sciences, with an emphasis on medical and interpersonal communication issues. I work with dental and medical anxiety and stress, relationship challenges and personal goal achievement, pain reduction and management, creating a great sex life, sleep problems, sports performance improvement, habit cessation (e.g., smoking, weight loss), and optimizing relaxation as well as mindfulness and emotion control. Sessions are in-person or via Zoom.

My professional and academic training includes guided relaxation, clinical hypnotherapy, autogenic biofeedback, and a commitment to an open, unconditional positive regard in working with all clients. Also an ordained minister, I understand the important balance between mind, body, and spirit for a whole, satisfying life. I’ve even worked with NASA using autogenic biofeedback and guided meditation to reduce motion sickness for astronauts in space!

“Whether you’re trying to stop grinding your teeth, working on a complex relationship decision, managing pain, or wanting to improve your golf game, let’s talk about what we can do to help you live a fulfilling and happy life.”

My academic background includes Southern Methodist University (SMU), the University of Houston, Golden Gate University, and the Northwest Hypnosis Institute. Professionally, in addition to my clinical work, I have worked in the technology industry, am a six-time Olympic photographer and journalist, and author of 16 published books on several topics. I am a former competitive international fencer and an active sailor.

I am married with two grown children and three grandchildren. I live in the Pacific Northwest.
