Alexander Fidelman
Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Eating disorders are generally developed as a way to distract from painful emotions and self-medicate and/or to gain control.
5-PATH (The Five Phase Advanced Transformational Hypnotherapy) is a comprehensive way to address and release all negative emotions, perceptions and change the inner programs (early life negative beliefs and subconscious decisions) that trigger those emotions and perceptions. It is a also a powerful way to change habits and behaviors by coding in specific behavioral patterns directly into the subconscious mind.

8 Years Experience
Online in Cape Coral, FL
Cape Coral is one of Florida's fastest-growing cities, a sprawling canal city in Lee County whose rapid expansion has been driven by retirees, seasonal residents, and younger families relocating from higher cost-of-living states. The city was among the hardest hit by Hurricane Ian in 2022, and climate-related anxiety, disaster trauma, and the psychological stress of rebuilding remain significant mental health concerns for many residents. The city's heavily suburban, car-dependent geography means therapy is primarily delivered through private practices and telehealth, as public transit options are limited. Common therapy themes include grief, relationship stress, anxiety, adjustment challenges for new residents, and the mental health pressures of managing life in a rapidly developing, disaster-affected coastal community.
