Will you control my mind?

No. Hypnotherapy is about reclaiming control, not giving it up.

Not quite. Trance is a natural, in-between state, like the moment before you drift off, or when you're so caught in a book you don't hear your name called. You're not unconscious. You're just softer. Quieter. More open. And that's the sweet spot for real change.

What if I can't be hypnotized?

Everyone experiences trance naturally. A skilled guide helps you access it intentionally.

How many sessions will I need?

Some people notice shifts after two or three sessions. Others prefer ongoing support.

I'm too anxious for this to work.

Many clients say 'I didn't expect to go that deep.' Anxiety doesn't block hypnosis because hypnotherapy works with your nervous system, not against it.

Yes, hypnotherapy is a safe and natural process. You're always in control and fully aware during the session. You can't be made to do or say anything you don't want to, and you can come out of hypnosis at any moment. My approach is gentle, trauma-aware, and designed to help you feel safe, supported, and grounded throughout.

What is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is a gentle, collaborative process. It uses guided relaxation to help you enter a calm, focused state of mind sometimes called a trance. In this state, your mind is more open to positive suggestions and new perspectives, making it easier to release unhelpful patterns, ease anxiety, and reconnect with your inner strengths.

You remain in control throughout the process. Many people describe it as deeply restful, safe, and empowering, like giving your mind a chance to exhale.

How Does It Work?

Science-backed

Hypnotherapy is a gentle, science-backed way to support your nervous system. It helps you shift out of survival mode and into a space where you feel safe, grounded, and more like yourself again.

During hypnosis, the brain’s focus, imagination, and emotion centers become more active.

The body responds to imagined calm as if it’s real: slower heart rate, deeper breath, less tension.

Studies show hypnotherapy is effective for anxiety, sleep, trauma, phobias, and more.

Tune your mind

Trance is something we all experience in everyday life, like when you’re so absorbed in a book or a walk that the world around you softens. In hypnotherapy, we use that same natural, focused state to help you tune in more deeply.

Trance allows your mind and body to sync, inviting calm into your whole system.

In this quiet space, you can hear what your mind has been trying to tell you.

Repeated suggestions help form new, supportive patterns over time at your own pace.

Science or Magic?

“It’s not stage hypnosis or a magic wand. 
It’s science-backed, body-informed work that helps your nervous system shift out of survival mode.”

Jana Karpenko

And Yet...

There’s a bit of magic, too. The kind of magic that happens when someone realises… They’re not broken. They don’t have to keep doing it the old way. They’re allowed to let go of something. Gently, for good.

That moment? It feels like watching a tight knot loosen in someone’s chest. You see it in their face. You hear it in their breath. You feel it in the room. Call it science. Call it magic. Call it healing. Whatever name you give it—it works.
