Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I have training in various career identity development models which allow for an exploration into certain career paths that may better fit your strengths. That being said, through the pandemic we have had a huge evolution in what a career can look like. We can use this space to see what is and what is not working in your current career path, as well as to broach the existential question around how to live out your values in work/life balance.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Career challenges often involve more than resumes or job strategies—they frequently stem from confidence issues, decision fatigue, fear of change, or internal blocks around identity and purpose. Hypnosis can help address the underlying mental and emotional patterns that influence career satisfaction, performance, and direction.
My approach to career-focused hypnosis is individualized and practical. Drawing on decades of real-world business and healthcare experience, including leadership, entrepreneurship, and executive decision-making, I tailor each session to the client’s specific goals and circumstances. Sessions may focus on increasing confidence, improving focus, overcoming procrastination, managing work-related stress, or clarifying next steps during periods of transition.
Clients often seek hypnosis during career changes, retirement transitions, leadership challenges, or when they feel stuck or uncertain about their professional path. Hypnosis provides a structured, supportive way to explore values, strengthen motivation, and develop a clearer sense of direction while remaining grounded and in control throughout the process.
Hypnosis is offered as a complementary, drug-free approach and is not a replacement for career coaching, psychotherapy, or professional advising. When appropriate, it can be used alongside other supports to help clients move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.
