Barry Lipscomb
Hypnotherapist, CHT
You’re stuck. You know at your core that things could be better in your life but you just can’t make it happen. You’re a life-long learner and maybe even a spiritual seeker – reading Brene Brown, following Oprah, and listening to Adam Grant, Esther Perel, On Being and other podcasts. Yet you still feel stuck in some way. You know at some level that the power to heal lies within you. Answers are just under the surface. You are certain you could access healing and your own intuition if you could just quieten your mind, trust your gut, and hear your inner voice.
Using guided meditation and hypnotherapy, I help you access and utilize your own inner resources for healing and tap into your intuition and inner wisdom to find your path forward. I work with spiritual seekers just like you to get unstuck, transform what is holding you back and navigate a more fulfilling and productive life.
Contact me to schedule a complimentary 15-minute information session to learn more about Depth Hypnosis counseling sessions and how we can get you unstuck.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
After facing the heart-wrenching challenges of having two of my three children struggle with Substance Use Disorder, my world was further shaken when my son, Joel, lost his decades-long battle with the disease in 2017. In the wake of this profound loss, I was determined to better understand the family experience of addiction, and have since used this lived experience to support and guide others who are navigating the isolating and stigmatizing road of addiction and loss.
As a Compassionate Bereavement Care®️ Certified Provider and Kessler Certified Grief Educator, I work with individuals, families, and communities impacted by loss. I am a Peer Parent Coach with the Partnership to End Addiction, and co-facilitate their online grief support community, and is the host of Finding Hope After Loss, Grief Support groups for The Happier Life Project. As an advocate for recovery policies, I am a California State Organizer with the Recovery Advocacy Project, serve on the RCO/RCC Advisory Committee, and was named the 2022 Architect of Recovery by CCAPP (CA Consortium of Addiction Professionals.) My book, Secrets, Scars and Heart Shaped Jars, shares my family’s journey through addiction, loss and recovery.
