Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
Addicts are often scared of giving up the only thing that seems to be getting them through their lives - and the families are anxious and fearful that something terrible will happen to the addict they love. This kind of life is full of fear and anxiety - and this can change for everyone.

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Anxiety often shows up as persistent tension, overthinking, or a sense of always needing to stay in control. Many of the women I work with are highly capable and used to pushing through these feelings, even when the mental and emotional load becomes exhausting. Rather than focusing only on managing symptoms, therapy offers space to understand what anxiety has been trying to protect and how it developed over time. Together, we work toward creating a greater sense of internal steadiness and more flexible ways of responding to stress and uncertainty.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Many people experience anxiety or fears that don’t respond well to logic, reassurance, or willpower alone. These reactions are often driven by subconscious patterns that were learned over time and continue automatically, even when they are no longer helpful. Hypnosis provides a practical way to work with those patterns at their source.
My approach to hypnosis for anxiety and fears is personalized and collaborative. Drawing on decades of healthcare experience, I tailor each session to the individual rather than using scripted techniques. Together, we focus on calming the nervous system, reducing anticipatory worry, and helping the mind develop new, more adaptive responses to stressors and triggers.
Clients often seek hypnosis for generalized anxiety, situational anxiety, phobias, health-related fears, and performance-related fears. Hypnosis can be especially helpful when anxiety persists despite understanding its irrational nature. Sessions are conducted in a calm, supportive environment where clients remain aware and in control throughout the process.
Hypnosis is offered as a drug-free, complementary approach and is not a replacement for medical or mental health care. When appropriate, it can work alongside other professional treatment to help restore a greater sense of calm, confidence, and emotional balance.
