Do you often find yourself struggling with difficult feelings of disappointment and recurring negative thoughts?  If this is causing you to doubt yourself, or even withdraw in social situations; I can show you how to stand up to these negative thoughts and how to feel better.

“While we have learned much about acquiring things, we have precious little accurate information on what to do when we lose them.  Loss is inevitable.  Sometimes loss is even predictable.  In spite of these truths, we receive no formal training on how to respond to events that are guaranteed to happen and sure to cause pain and disruption.” – John W. James and Russell Friedman, The Grief Recovery Handbook

Effective CBT Therapy combined with clinical hypnosis simply shows you how to be happy and live a meaningful life again.

Grief is a natural response triggered by:

• the loss or death of a loved one
• dread or unprecedented anguish
• fear of loneliness or loss
• separation of any kind including a breakup or divorce
• empty nest -when your kids leaving home
• mortification, shame or feelings of betrayal
• overwhelming fears and despair
