Hypnosis for the things that haven't budged
Hypnosis is a natural state of focused attention. Not sleep, not surrender. You stay aware and in control the whole time. What changes is how easily your mind accepts a different idea about what's possible.
Test Anxiety & Academic Performance
Walk into the exam room knowing what you studied is still there.
Stop smoking
Address the habit loop itself, not just the willpower around it.
Weight & eating habits
Work on the patterns underneath the food, not another diet.
Confidence & public speaking
Say the thing you meant to say, in the room where it counts.
Sports performance
Clients competing locally, nationally, and internationally.
Past life regression
Longer exploratory sessions for clients who want to go there.
Three of these you inherited. The fourth is yours.
Most of what we believe about ourselves was installed by someone else, a long time ago, without our say. The first three questions surface it. The fourth is where you start choosing.
The labels you're carrying, and where they actually came from.
The purpose underneath the roles and the to-do list.
Where your current patterns are taking you, if nothing changes.
Who and what you want to be, do, and have. Chosen on purpose this time.
I know what it's like to rebuild from the ground up
When I was younger I felt un-loveable and without worth. Like I was living a pretend life with no future ahead of it. I didn't read my way out of that. I lived my way out, and then I spent 25 years learning how to help other people do the same.
I'm a board-certified consulting hypnotist, a Reiki Master Teacher, and a lymphatic massage therapist. Over the years I've combined hypnosis, Palmtherapy, and energy work into one process that helps people clear an emotional barrier quickly. Often in a single session.

Some forest trees need a fire before their seeds will open. I've come to believe the hardest season of my life is exactly what made this work possible.

What clients say
Working with Dorie has been delightful and so impactful in my life and helped me flip some of my negative self talk into a kinder and way more productive dialogue. This is life changing! Thank you, Dorie for helping me "change my story"
My business, personal life and even my love life has definitely taken a turn in an amazingly unexpected direction since we began working together. I'm so grateful you are in my life, sweet Dorie ❤️❤️❤️
Dori is an intuitive and talented professional! She helped me work through some emotional blocks I had that were holding me back in my business.
Additionally she is an amazing person who instantly made me feel at ease and comfortable. Highly recommend seeing Dori!
I did a 10-session hypnotherapy program with Dori, and it was amazing. We worked on everything from weight loss to reaction, anger management, manifestation, and healing energy that works for relationships.
I feel like my relationship with my wife has improved, I have lost approximately 45 pounds, and I am healthier than I've been in 20 years. I believe it all began with my desire to make these changes and Dori was the power to help me make it reality.
