Hypnosis Tree

My name is Theresa Timony. I am a Nurse Practitioner, a Hypnotherapist (Certified with IACT and UCSD, and advanced courses with ASCH), and Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and Coach.

​

I offer online appointments for clients living worldwide for hypnosis, or health education/coaching, to help people with a variety of goals: from changing habits to releasing trauma or grief, or accessing a more peaceful or creative part of your brain to help you live your best life.

 

I do not do "Stage Hypnosis" which most people commonly think of when they hear the term hypnosis. "Hypnosis" is simply a relaxed state of internally focused attention, called trance. We all experience periods of trance daily (driving or being fully absorbed in a book or movie, so we lose track of time, etc). We are in a state of self-hypnosis much of the time without realizing it. Our internal thoughts (self talk) can be empowering or self-depreciating which then impacts our perceptions of other people and the world. By learning self-hypnosis techniques we create new neural pathways enabling us to not only control physiologic states we previously thought we had no control over, but also to more effectively heal nonproductive underlying childhood beliefs, or current unhelpful ingrained habits, process trauma out of our bodies, or improve academic or sports performance, etc. Ultimately, hypnosis gets us in touch with our intuition so that we can heal, optimize mental and physical health goals, and reach our dreams more easily.

 

Hypnosis training is a form of biofeedback (a small example is picturing your hands warmer can reduce migraine headaches). As a Nurse Practitioner and Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner and Coach, I also have extensive experience and training in Neurofeedback, PsychoNeuroImmunology, various models of Psychotherapy, Psychiatric Medication Management, Breath-work, and Integration Therapy after having altered states of consciousness.

​

By practicing shifting from our logical left sided brain to using our right sided creative brain we build new brain connections and pathways.

When we are in this very relaxed state (theta brain waves) then we can tap into our subconscious which allows us to: reduce pain or anxiety, improve sleep, release trauma, change stubborn unhealthy habits, improve physical healing processes, and access creative problem solving,.

​

Hypnotherapy is based on your goals. I am your guide, teaching you tools you can use yourself going forward in order to live your best life.​​
