Counselling to Break The Patterns Keeping You Unhappy
Sometimes you may feel stuck in repeated patterns of thoughts and feelings. You have every intention to change, you tell yourself “it’ll be different next time”, but when it comes down to it— you fall back into those old patterns.
This can make you feel completely powerless, stuck, and feeling defeated. You wonder why you can’t simply move on. Why can’t you just let it go?
This feeling is incredibly frustrating, it’s also completely normal and human. 95% of your thoughts and behaviours are processed and stored in your unconscious mind and are the result of the learning and conditioning you underwent in childhood. They become “patterns” in your mind, so deeply ingrained that they can’t be consciously accessed or changed.
This is why, even though you want something better for yourself, you find yourself stuck. Without accessing your unconscious mind, you’ll naturally snap back into your known, familiar ways of being every time— because they feel safe, and your brain is programmed that way.
We use the evidence-based therapeutic techniques of hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), and neurofeedback to help you access your unconscious mind, get to the root of your problems, and reprogram unwanted thought and behaviour patterns for good.
Whether you’re looking to create lasting change for yourself or for you and a family member or partner– we’re here to help!

Frequently Asked Questions About Counselling
No. When trauma is involved, we use Hypnotherapy which does not force us to go back to or relive negative experiences or trauma. In fact, it’s the opposite— hypnosis is very helpful for dealing with negative past experiences and trauma because it can help you reframe your negative memories in a more positive way.
Your initial, free consultation will be a telephone or online video appointment. Following that, you can choose between telephone, virtual, or in-person appointments at our clinic in North Vancouver.
