I have made a lot of positive changes after working with Deborah. I am also much happier because I am using my time more efficiently by working on my writing and other creative pursuits, rather than letting my depression and past trauma paralyze me. I have also noticed my decreased sense of social anxieties and performance anxiety. I haven’t yet delivered a speech to a big group, but I am able to read my impromptu, free-style prose and poetry to a circle of 10 (giver or take) strangers and friends in my weekly writing group. This is a big change because two months ago, I was hardly writing anything and had terrible anxieties about writing as well that would contribute to my writer’s block. I also wasn’t part of any community, so I didn’t have many people to share my time with, just my roommates and my friends who live in another city. I’ve also improved my eating habits! I make better eating choices, without any reluctance. Through the help of her aversion therapy in our first session, she helped me cut out white refined wheat, which, as she explained, can accumulate to negative blood sugar levels which also directly affect our anxieties and depressive moods. I wasn’t so sure how much my diet would improve my mood, but after changing my diet to reduce my refined white wheat intake, I have been able to observe the differences in my energy levels and moods. I definitely feel much better when I eat the foods that are good for me, and conversely, I feel slovenly or quickly agitated when I eat the foods that aren’t good for me.Deborah has a kind approach, and after working with her for 6 sessions, I have grown to trust her with any problems I need to deal with. I was nervous for our first hypnotherapy session since I’d never done anything like it, but she answered all of my questions and thoroughly explained her process before we began. She didn’t make me relive any past trauma because it wasn’t necessary. Instead, we focused on the positive changes that I wanted to begin implementing in my life, and I am so thankful to have found Deborah to help me turn my life around.

Deborah was great.
