Bridges Clinical Hypnotherapy Services
Hypnotherapist
When we feel better, we heal better. As a complimentary therapy, hypnosis addresses the mind-body connection
of chronic pain, personal trauma and physical illness. Hypnosis is endorsed by the Canadian Cancer Society and there is much evidence-based research worldwide to support the efficacy of hypnosis as a viable therapeutic intervention in this area.

Ajax is a lakefront Durham Region town east of Toronto, one of the Greater Toronto Area's most diverse communities, with large Black, South Asian, and Filipino populations and many young families commuting west. Mental health needs centre on commuter and financial strain, newcomer settlement, and youth wellbeing in fast-growing schools. Lakeridge Health provides regional services, and the GTA's large therapy market — plus virtual care — extends access.
