Amanda Kohl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, CTP
Chronic stress can leave your body feeling tense, overwhelmed, and constantly “on.” Even when things slow down, it can be hard to fully relax. I help clients understand how stress is showing up in their nervous system and work through the patterns contributing to it so they can feel more balanced, grounded, and at ease in their daily lives.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Stress is a natural response, but when it becomes chronic it can affect focus, sleep, mood, and overall well-being. Many people understand the sources of their stress yet still feel stuck in patterns of tension, overwhelm, or constant mental pressure. These responses are often reinforced at a subconscious level.
My approach to stress reduction is personalized and practical. Through hypnosis, we focus on helping the nervous system settle, reducing habitual stress reactions, and developing healthier responses to everyday demands. Each session is tailored to the individual rather than using scripted techniques, allowing the work to address both emotional and physiological components of stress.
Clients often seek hypnosis for work-related stress, caregiver stress, life transitions, or ongoing mental fatigue. Hypnosis offers a drug-free, complementary approach that helps clients remain aware and in control while learning to respond to stress with greater calm, clarity, and resilience.
This work is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, and I do not recommend changing prescribed medications without consulting a healthcare provider. When appropriate, hypnosis can be used alongside other professional support to help restore balance, focus, and emotional well-being.

St. Petersburg has undergone rapid transformation as an arts and culture hub, attracting young creatives, LGBTQ+ residents, and a growing tech community, and therapists here frequently work with identity exploration, life transitions, and the pressures of building an unconventional career in a mid-size city. The city has a well-established LGBTQ+ community centered around the Grand Central District, and affirming therapists are well represented relative to the city's size. St. Anthony's Hospital and Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Many St. Pete therapists serve clients across the wider Tampa Bay area, making the region's therapeutic resources interconnected regardless of which side of the bay clients live on.
