Hypnotherapy for Trauma & PTSD: Heal, Release, Reclaim Your Life
Trauma can leave lasting imprints on the mind and body, making it feel impossible to move forward. Flashbacks, anxiety, emotional triggers, and feelings of being stuck can keep you trapped in the past. But healing is possible.
Hypnotherapy is a gentle, effective approach to help you process trauma safely, release emotional pain, and rewire subconscious patterns that keep you in a cycle of distress. In our sessions, you will:
✔ Reduce Triggers & Emotional Overwhelm – Reprogram automatic fear responses and regain control.
✔ Release Stored Trauma – Let go of past pain in a way that feels safe and empowering.
✔ Strengthen Emotional Resilience – Build inner peace and confidence in facing the future.
✔ Restore a Sense of Safety & Trust – Create new subconscious beliefs that support healing.
You are not your trauma—you are stronger than what happened to you. With hypnotherapy, you can reclaim your peace, rebuild your confidence, and step into a future free from the weight of the past.
Take the first step toward healing—schedule a session today.

Psychologist, PsyD
At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we understand that trauma and PTSD can fundamentally reshape how you experience the world, often leaving you in a state of hyper-vigilance or emotional numbness. Our approach is deeply trauma-informed, moving away from "what is wrong with you" to explore "what happened to you." We specialize in treating both acute trauma and the "invisible" wounds of complex and intergenerational trauma, particularly as they intersect with cultural identity and family history. We help you process distressing memories and regain a sense of safety in your own body. Our goal is to provide a secure, compassionate environment where you can move beyond survival mode and reclaim a life defined by your values rather than your past.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Trauma has a way of showing up and persisting despite our efforts to keep it at bay. For some, it’s like a thorn that has settled into place and doesn’t hurt too badly as long as you focus your attention elsewhere. For others, it’s an unavoidable, constant source of pain, anger, and fear. Whether it happened recently or decades ago, trauma can take up valuable space in our lives. This may come in the form of unwanted memories, difficulty trusting others, feeling on edge, irritability, avoiding certain situations, or maybe all of the above. Unfortunately, efforts to avoid thinking about past traumatic events often keep people from seeking treatment and finding relief. Although challenging, addressing and resolving emotional wounds can be incredibly liberating and rewarding. Trauma treatment can positively shift the lens through which you see yourself, your relationships, and ultimately the world around you.
