I became interested in hypnosis when I couldn't seem to quit smoking. I went to two hypnotherapists but I still smoked. I could see the potential hypnosis had to offer so I studied and got my advanced certification from The National Guild of Hypnotists, developed my quit smoking programs, and became my first success. I practiced for a year and got my Master Certification through The National Board of Professional and Ethical Standards. I have been very successful in utilizing hypnosis to help people change bad habits and limiting thoughts and beliefs; local doctors recommend me to their patients.

My interest in the mind continued and I got my Bachelor's degree in psychology.

I am very interested in helping people change thoughts and behaviors to generate happiness and fullfillment. I now use my experience to teach happiness programs with Cognitive Behavioral therapy, guided imagery, and self-hypnosis in an inpatient behavioral health setting. In this setting I teach clinically depressed and suicidal people to help them with their first steps towards happiness.

I educate other mental health professionals about my hypnosis and guided imagery programs. Therapists, Social Wokers, and Registered Nurses have found my programs useful with treating their patients.
