Hypnosis & Inner Work
Where Inner Healing Meets Spiritual Exploration
Sometimes you know you want something to change, but thinking about it, talking about it, or trying harder hasn't been enough.
Hypnosis offers a different way to work with the thoughts, emotions, habits, fears, and patterns that may be keeping you stuck. By working with the deeper part of your mind, we can explore what may be underneath a challenge and create space for new perspectives, responses, and possibilities.
At Olive Tree Healing Hypnosis, every session is personalized to you, your goals, and what you are ready to explore.
What Can Hypnosis Help With?
Hypnosis can support many different personal goals. Some of the areas I commonly work with include:
Anxiety, Stress & Overwhelm
Learn new ways to respond to stress, settle busy thoughts, and develop greater calm and confidence in everyday life.
Work with the thoughts, emotions, and automatic responses connected to a fear or phobia, helping you develop a different and more comfortable response. Examples may include fear of flying, driving, heights, public speaking, needles, insects, animals, or other specific situations.
Self-Worth & Confidence
Explore limiting beliefs and patterns of self-doubt while developing a more supportive and positive relationship with yourself.
Habits & Unwanted Patterns
Explore habits, behaviours, procrastination, perfectionism, or recurring patterns that you would like to change.
Feeling Stuck or Ready for Change
Sometimes there isn't one obvious problem. You may simply feel stuck, disconnected, unmotivated, or ready for something in your life to shift.
Hypnosis can provide an opportunity to step beyond familiar thinking, explore your inner experience, and discover new perspectives and possibilities.
Letting Go & Moving Forward
Explore emotions, experiences, relationships, or old patterns that may still be influencing how you feel today, and work toward greater freedom and choice.
How We Begin
Initial Foundation Session
Your first session gives us the time and space to understand what you want to change and establish a foundation for your hypnosis work.
Duration: 90 minutes
Investment: $200 + tax
Format: In person in Bedford, Nova Scotia, or online via Zoom
We begin with a conversation about your history, your goals, and what you would most like to accomplish. I'll explain what hypnosis is and what you can expect, answer your questions, and together we'll determine the most appropriate approach.
The session then moves into hypnosis, allowing you to experience the process and begin working toward your personal goal.
You don't need to know exactly why something is happening or have everything figured out before you come. We start with where you are.
Continuing Your Work
Some clients find that one focused session is enough for what they came to address. Others choose to continue with several sessions, particularly when working with long-standing patterns or more than one personal goal. After your Initial Foundation Session, you can choose what feels right for you.
Individual Hypnosis Session - 60 minutes — $140 + tax
A focused session for existing clients who want to continue their work, address a specific issue, reinforce progress, or explore a new goal.
There is no requirement to purchase a package.
3-Session Package - 3 × 60 minutes — $390 + tax (Save $30)
A good choice when you want consistent support while working toward a specific goal or making a meaningful change.
5-Session Package - 5 × 60 minutes — $625 + tax (Save $75)
Suitable for clients who want more time to explore deeper or longer-standing patterns and strengthen new ways of thinking and responding.
7-Session Package - 7 × 60 minutes — $840 + tax (Save $140)
For clients who want ongoing support while working on several related goals or making more gradual, sustained changes.
You do not have to decide on a package before your first session. We'll discuss what may be most appropriate for you based on your goals and experience.
What Is Hypnosis Like?
Hypnosis is not sleep, and you don't lose control.
You remain aware of what is happening throughout the session and can hear, speak, move, or stop at any time. I guide you into a relaxed state of focused attention where you can explore your inner experience in a different way.
Some people experience hypnosis as deeply relaxing. Others notice imagery, emotions, memories, physical sensations, or simply a strong sense of inward focus. There is no single "right" way to experience hypnosis.
You don't have to force anything to happen. Your role is simply to participate and remain open to the process.
A Personalized Approach
No two people come to hypnosis for exactly the same reason, and no two sessions are exactly alike.
I draw from different hypnosis approaches and techniques depending on what you want to accomplish. The work may involve relaxation, guided imagery, suggestions, working with beliefs and emotions, accessing inner resources, or exploring patterns that have become automatic.
My aim is not to tell you what you should think or feel. It is to help you explore and strengthen the resources and possibilities that already exist within you.
Is Hypnosis Right for You?
You don't need to be certain that hypnosis will work for you before you begin.
If you are curious, willing to participate, and ready to explore a different way of approaching something you want to change, a free consultation is a good place to start.
We'll talk about what you're experiencing, what you'd like to change, and whether hypnosis is an appropriate approach for you.

Specialized Hypnosis & Inner Work modalities
Inner Shift Session
The Inner Shift Session is a personalized hypnosis experience within Hypnosis & Inner Work. Each session is guided by your individual goals, experiences, and what emerges naturally during the process.
Through focused attention, guided hypnosis, and inner exploration, you may gain new perspectives, insights, or a different way of relating to thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and patterns.
Quantum Connect Session
Quantum Connect is a guided hypnosis experience based in spiritualty and for symbols. It is right for those who feel curious about connecting with their Higher Self in a quick and simple way.
You bring a question, intention, or area of life you would like to explore, and the session creates an opportunity to receive guidance and information from within. You remain aware and involved throughout the experience, with the freedom to ask, explore, and follow where the session leads.
Both approaches are personalized to you. You don't need to know exactly what will happen or have all the answers before you begin.
Inner Shift Sessions and Quantum Journey Sessions are offered as part of the Hypnosis & Inner Work experience and may be incorporated into your session based on your goals and what feels appropriate for you. They are not separate services, and the same session and package pricing applies.
