I am a retired critical care RN and certified clinical hypnotherapist. I have been in professional hypnotherapy practice since 2014 and now offer live, one on one hypnotherapy sessions exclusively online. My background in critical care nursing informs a grounded, client-centered approach that emphasizes safety, consent and emotional regulation throughout the therapeutic process.
I Completed over 300 hours of in person training at the Palo Alto School of Hypnotherapy including Basic, Clinical, Ericksonian, Advanced, Medical and Regression Hypnotherapy. I completed additional in person Regression Therapy training directly with Brian Weiss, MD and have facilitated over 650 in person and online sessions. Earlier in my career I completed Level 1 and Level 2 QHHT training and conducted over 500 in person sessions. My current practice focuses exclusively on hypnotherapy and regression work that translates effectively to an online setting.
Hypnotherapy services are offered independently and do not constitute medical or nursing care.
I offer personalized hypnotherapy and guided regression work through live online sessions. This approach allows deep focus, emotional safety and flexibility-without the need to travel.
All sessions are conducted in real time, one on one and paced according to your needs. You remain aware, in control and actively engaged throughout your session.
I have been interested in having a QHHT session for a couple of years now. Wow...I am so glad I booked a session with Gretchen. I was a bit of a challenging client, as I am very left brained, but she was patient and persistent and I had an amazing session. I gained a lot of clarity about my life and my ongoing spiritual awakening and was also able to heal my arthritic joints and lower back pain. Yay!!

I had a session with Gretchen before a major knee surgery that my MD told me would have a very painful recovery. We worked on my anxiety about the surgery and pain management. She also made me two recordings. One to listen to before the surgery and one after. I wasn't even nervous anymore after our appointment. Surgery went great and I only took two pain pills after the surgery.

I have been a client for over three years. Gretchen has guided me to heal numerous health issues and also advance on my spiritual journey. I highly recommend her. She is a Talented Hypnotherapist and encompasses several other healing modalities that I have benefited from tremendously. I also love that she continues to attend conferences and add new tools to her repertoire.

My Session with Gretchen was wonderful. She is very knowledgeable, shows compassion and is a great listener. I have read all of Dolores Cannon's books but was nervous about having my own QHHT session. Within minutes of meeting Gretchen I felt at ease and was able to relax enough to have a "Life Changing" Session. If you've been wanting to have a QHHT session don't hesitate to book one with Gretchen.

I went to see Gretchen for help with my anxiety and depression. I left the first session feeling more relaxed than I had in years. She also makes a great recording after every session and emails it to you. I have come to consider all my recordings as priceless. I listen to one everyday. Gretchen has guided me and given me tools to live a more joyful and anxiety free life. Hypnosis and Gretchen are a winning combination!

I was referred to Gretchen by my doctor to do hypnotherapy to help relieve my chronic shoulder pain. My 20 year pain was significantly reduced after three sessions and listening to the recordings she made for me. This was in 2014 and my pain has never come back.

Gretchen is an amazing healer! In my two sessions with her so far, I've experienced dramatic physical and emotional healing, with vast improvement in my spleen and lung health, and relief to nagging joints. Gretchen is super efficient as well, deftly asking all of the questions I'm interested in. I look forward to upcoming sessions with her!

I had an amazing and healing session with Gretchen. I now understand why I had to go through so much pain in my early life. I also gained much information about my Life Purpose and current Spiritual Awakening. Thank you Gretchen. I will be back for more sessions.

I waited awhile to write about my experience. Boy, has it been life changing for me. I have suffered from anxiety and depression since my teens. Covid-19 pushed me over the edge. I called Gretchen and was able to see her regarding all my fears of catching and spreading the virus. These fears resolved in a few sessions. We then worked on my anxiety and depression. After seeing her weekly for two months and applying the tools she gave me, I am thrilled to say my depression and anxiety are gone. My suffering is over!! Gretchen is an awesome listener, nonjudgmental and has great insight. Highly, highly recommend her!!

I have been a client of Gretchens for several years. I have done in person sessions and recently online sessions after she moved from my area. I now actually prefer online. I have no commute, feel like my results are the same and the relaxation seems to last longer for me. Gretchen is great and has helped me make important changes in my personal and professional life.
