1. Are you a full time hypnotist, a part-time hypnotist, a professional who incorporates hypnotism occasionally in your other
practice, or are you a hobbyist?

I am a part time hypnotist and a full time business owner.

2. Do you specialize in any type of hypnotism?

I specialize in natural childbirth and fertility using hypnosis.

3. Is there any form of hypnotism that you do not practice and why (i.e. entertainment, past-life regression, pain management)?

I find that focusing on birth helps me to be good at what I do. There are so many areas in life that can benefit by hypnosis, too many to focus on at this time.

4. Do you use self-hypnosis regularly in your life? If so, how?

Self-hypnosis is too awesome a skill not to use myself. I use it to improve my business decisions and for general peace of mind.

5. Describe your hypnotism office or work setting.

I teach in many different settings. I teach classes at Yale New Haven Hospital 4 times a year on Saturday mornings, I teach at couples homes and in my office at 1449 Old Waterbury Road, Southbury, CT.

6. Describe a typical day in your life.

My primary job is MOM, so I do all the mom things, but when everyone is in school, I spend time in my home office when I’m not out with clients. I love what I do.

7. Where did you get your training in hypnotism and are you certified by any organization?

I initially became certified by the HypnoBirthing Institute to teach HypnoBirthing classes. I went on to receive my Hypnotherapy certification from the National Guild of Hypnotherapists (NGH) and most recently became certified to do Fertility using Hypnosis.

8. What is the most fabulous hypnotism technique you use or prefer?

I agree with another interviewee that the most fabulous technique is the one that is perfect for the client and comes through my subconscious to the room. It’s quiet exciting. I did a session for fertility using hypnosis and two weeks later the women became pregnant. Doesn’t get any better than that!

9. What was the worse moment you ever experienced in a hypnotism setting that ended up being a valuable learning experience?

Luckily nothing horrible has happened. At the very least, clients become very relaxed and leave with a sense of well being. Sometimes births don’t happen the way couples hope they would, and the learning here is that one can only control their part. The baby and the Universe have a say as well.

10. Do you have any words of advice to potential clients or other hypnotists that you would like to share?

Self-hypnosis is an amazing tool for childbirth and I encourage clients and practitioners alike to explore this option. Thanks for this opportunity to share my views.
