Psychologist, Ph.D.
When anxiety interferes with performance, it can feel frustrating and discouraging. By learning to work with anxiety rather than fight against it, you can cultivate the confidence and focus needed to stay in flow and perform at your best. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening in your autonomic nervous system and develop practical tools to help you find your optimal zone—where you can accelerate when needed, ease up when it’s time to recover, and consistently access your highest potential.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Mental rehearsal is a core tenant of my approach to hypnosis. My motivational and success-oriented outcome hypnotic programming uses a lot of future goals visualized along with elevated emotions to mentally/emotionally rehearse the desired outcome. The subconscious responds to feelings and images very strongly and this is why so many are able to manifest what they desire, it is through mastery of this hypnotic method. We may rely on pineal gland breathing to change our chemical makeup in minutes from a low-frequency emotion to an elevated state.

Stuart Hellebrand, M.S., C.Ht.
Hypnotherapist
Hypnosis is a valuable tool for those seeking a competitive edge in sports performance. I have been involved with sports performance improvement since the 1970’s through my work with sports competitors to include recreational golfers, collegiate middle-distance runners and swimmers, marathon runners, and others. Noteworthy, among my clients, has been a CIF track and field champion, a swimmer on Cal Berkeley’s 2X national championship team, a collegiate middle-distance champion, and a marathoner who successfully completed the Mount Everest Marathon.
Addressing the performance aspects of sports through hypnosis complements physical training and can lead to breakthrough performances. My use of hypnosis works by reprogramming negative self-talk, empowering performance through affirmations and guided imagery, boosting confidence, and reducing anxiety. In that pre-competition jitters or fear of failure can derail an athlete’s mindset, hypnosis employs subconscious relaxation techniques and guided imagery to reduce cortisol levels and promote a calm composed state of mind, while fostering a winning attitude.
Studies have shown the efficacy of hypnosis in sports. For example, a 2016 review in the International Journal of Sports Science highlighted significant performance improvements in athletes who used hypnosis compared to those who did not. Those who used hypnosis reported better focus, reduced pre-competition anxiety, and enhanced execution of skills after hypnosis sessions.
In sports performance counseling, my use of hypnosis facilitates vivid mental imagery, allowing athletes to visualize successful performance. Research has shown that mental rehearsal can strengthen neural pathways, helping the body to perform as if it has already achieved the desired outcome. Using hypnotic relaxation to tap into an athlete’s subconscious allows the competitor to tap into their commitment to training, discipline, and goal achievement in a stress-free manner.
