Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
My hypnotic formula is trauma-sensitive. I work with men and women experiencing a full spectrum of symptoms of chronic trauma and abuse. We use a variety of frameworks to process, heal and move on in life, so that you are finally comfortable in our own skin. Ultimately, we reset your nervous system, give you the tools to emotional regulation, and progam in a pathway to safety, at all times. We get there by first looking at the symptoms you are experiencing, and the associated beliefs and emotions, then reframe them with healthier and desired alternatives, while defining your new goals. We may use a hypnotic regression to allow the inner child to confront their antagonist and finally emotionally release what's been held back and suppressed for too long. Once this happens, there is a chance to forgive (if this is appropriate and/or available to you), along with a beautiful formula where we reach a core state of love, reprocess and reframe the unwanted programming, and grow the child up to a healthy and mature adult. Throughout the process, I also provide coping skills like tapping to use in the event there is a shame or trigger spiral. I train you in the breathwork technique that can change your chemical makeup from dread or fear to an elevated, inspired state. Most clients experience release and reach a state of inner peace by the third session.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Trauma lives in our bodies, wreaking havoc on your nervous system, emotional reactivity, and relationships. Whether your trauma comes from early childhood experiences or a traumatic childbirth experience, we can work together to help you heal. I will help you tell your story in a setting of safety. If you prefer not to rehash what happened, we can help your body and mind process the lingering emotions, body sensations, and intrusive images using an eye movement therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy. This helps reduce symptoms in just a few sessions, often only one session. Clients says they are surprised at the quick relief from ART. Using traditional talk therapy or ART, we can continue to process what happened and help you learn to relate to the world in a different way, or help you prepare for future situations that are similar. Many women who have experienced traumatic births find ART helpful in enabling them to decide whether to have more children from a clear mind and not from a place of fear.
