Hypnotherapy
Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
As a certified clinical hypnotherapist, this is my core framework used to help clients transform subconscious beliefs and reprogram limiting behaviors to thrive. Included are supportive and congruent modalities like breathwork, IFS, Gestalt, EMT, NLP, childhood regression, past life regression, and life-between-lives regression. Unlike conventional therapy that can take months, years or decades, clients who come to me typically resolve their core issue within 1-3 sessions. The shift with hypnosis can happen in an instant, because we are getting beyond your inner critic and sensors, and directly into your subsonscious mind, which comprises 95% of your total consciousness. Consider it your primary operating system, and together, we go there, and we process and release outdated programming and then rewire (neuroplasticity) your brain with the newly desired, healthy and harmonious ways of being. We literally install new hardware into your operating system, programming it with the commands you desire to overcome whatever issue you currently face to become the best version of yourself, the one you've always dreamed of, and knew on a deep inner level you would someday be.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’ve ever thought, “I know what I should do… so why do I keep doing the same thing?” you’re not alone. Many people find themselves stuck in patterns they can’t seem to change—whether it’s anxiety, habits, confidence issues, fears, or emotional reactions that feel automatic. Even with insight and effort, it can feel like something deeper is getting in the way.
Hypnotherapy is a powerful way to work directly with those deeper patterns. I use clinical hypnosis to help you access a focused, relaxed state where your mind becomes more receptive to positive change. Combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), NLP, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), this approach allows us to not only understand the problem, but to actively rewire the thoughts, emotional responses, and habits that maintain it. This is not about losing control—it’s about gaining greater control over how you think, feel, and respond.
What’s often missing in traditional approaches is access to the part of the mind where these automatic patterns are stored. You may already know what needs to change, but insight alone doesn’t always create lasting results. Without engaging the deeper, unconscious processes, those patterns tend to persist.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to move beyond just understanding the problem and begin changing it. If you’re open to this approach, hypnotherapy can help you create meaningful, lasting change more efficiently—so you can feel more in control, more confident, and more aligned with the life you want.

Hypnotherapy
Julie Cochrane - Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) Therapist
Hypnotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, RTT-T, Rewind Therapy Practitioner, Integration Coaching
Hypnotherapy uses a focused, relaxed state of awareness to work directly with the subconscious mind, the part of us that runs most of our habits, emotional reactions and automatic patterns. You stay aware, in control and able to talk throughout. It is not stage hypnosis and it is not sleep. As a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and Rapid Transformational Therapist trained personally by Marisa Peer, I use hypnosis as part of a structured therapeutic process rather than as a standalone relaxation technique. The aim is real, often lasting change at the level where patterns are actually held. Sessions run online via Zoom for 90 to 120 minutes. Most issues respond within one to three sessions.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Hypnotherapists like to call themselves "change workers", for that is what we do. Who doesn't have something in their lives that they would like to change? Unwanted habits, fears and phobias, lack of confidence, negative self image, anxiety, the list goes on and on. For all these things and more, hypnosis is the most powerful go to therapy. Modern hypnotherapists are guided by the latest research in Neuroscience as the list of what problems we can resolve expands on a regular basis. As the new field of PsychoNeuroImmunology reveals the emotional roots of many chronic conditions and illnesses, we can now work with intractable medical issues such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Crohns Disease, and Ulcerative Collitis. Hypnosis is now considered the most effective treatment for IBS and has no side effects and is long lasting. Hypnosis can be used to boost confidence, creativity, and focus to help achieve one's career goals. It can also be used to work through intimacy issues and help have a more satisfying love life. The longer I work in the field, the more issues I feel confident I can help resolve.

Alexandria is a historic independent city directly south of Washington, DC, home to a large population of federal government employees, military personnel, contractors, and political professionals whose work creates a distinctive set of mental health pressures around high-stakes careers, security clearances, and the particular stress of working in proximity to political power. The city's cost of living is among the highest in the country, and financial stress sits alongside the intense professional demands of the DC metro workforce for many residents. A strong private therapy sector is well established in the Old Town, Del Ray, and Eisenhower Avenue corridors, and Alexandria residents also have access to the broader DC metro therapy market. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, burnout, relationship difficulties, and the career and identity pressures of a community defined by government and national security work.
