Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Most high performers don't have a strategy problem. They have an identity problem. The beliefs, triggers, and automatic responses running in the background are the real ceiling and talking about them only gets you so far. I'm Jay Shaw, a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and creator of Identity 2.0 Neural Reprogramming, based in Richardson, TX and serving the greater Dallas area and clients nationwide. My work targets the subconscious architecture driving your patterns and replaces it at the root. A systematic rebuild across 12 dimensions of identity tailored specifically to you. In-person and virtual options available. If you're done managing what you want eliminated, book a strategy call at hypnosisdallastx.com.

Online in Peoria, IL
Peoria is a central Illinois city historically associated with the phrase 'Will it play in Peoria?'—a cultural benchmark for mainstream American taste—and home to major Caterpillar Inc. operations—the company that has shaped the city's industrial identity and workforce for generations. The city has faced significant challenges from deindustrialization and population decline, and OSF HealthCare's large integrated health system—including behavioral health services—is one of the most significant mental health resources for central Illinois. Bradley University contributes a student population and some counseling capacity, and a private therapy sector serves the professional and healthcare community. Common therapy concerns include economic anxiety tied to Caterpillar's global business cycles, depression and anxiety in a community navigating population and economic decline, industrial workforce stress, and the mental health challenges of mid-size Midwestern cities working to reimagine their futures.
