About the Hypnotist

After more than ten years as a licensed massage therapist working primarily with chronic pain conditions and people with post traumatic stress disorder, Patti recognized the link between mind and body is more powerful than we generally realize.  She knew there had to be a more direct access to the innate healing capabilities we all have, and which we can all tap into if we are truly willing.  While healing of the human being always retains an element of the mysterious, hypnotherapy does offer a profound potential for connection between mind and body.

 Patti works with all types of concerns in her hypnosis practice, and she specializes in smoking cessation and anxieties. She recognizes that healing ability lies within the willingness and desire of each client; hypnosis is a tool, and she is a facilitator of change.

Patti is known in both the medical community and general public for her empathy and keen listening skills.  Her manner puts people at ease quickly, and it becomes evident that she is truly interested in her clients as whole human beings.  She places strong emphasis on making hypnosis safe and effective for each individual client.

Patti is a certified consulting hypnotist and a member of the National Guild of Hypnotists.  She is a graduate of the The Hypnotherapy Training Company and studied with Julie Griffen, BCH.  She welcomes questions and can be reached in Portland at 874-9859.
