Through the gentle power of hypnosis, we work together to release emotional pain and heal old wounds - so you can experience greater joy, ease, and inner calm.
“Trauma is not the bad things that happen to you, but what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you.”
— Gabor Maté, The Wisdom of Trauma
Emotional blocks can show up in many ways
Emotional blocks - and the pain they create - often don’t look the way we expect. You might notice them as patterns or struggles that keep repeating, even when you’ve tried to change.
You may recognize yourself here:
Persistent self-doubt, low self-esteem, or fear of abandonment
Repeatedly finding yourself in relationships that feel unsafe, unfulfilling, or emotionally unavailable
Difficulty setting boundaries, making decisions, or trusting your intuition
A deep longing for love and connection, yet struggling to find or sustain it
Feeling unfulfilled or disconnected from your life, even though you appear “successful” on the outside
Common symptoms of emotional blockages
Often, what we think is the problem is actually a symptom of something deeper. Emotional blocks frequently develop as a response to unresolved trauma, chronic stress, or the need to protect ourselves from emotional pain.
Some of the symptoms you may be experiencing might include:
Chronic stress or overwhelm
Anxiety, panic attacks, or PTSD/CPTSD symptoms
Feeling disconnected from your body or emotions
Prolonged feelings of anger, sadness, or numbness
Lack of self confidence or self-trust
Sexual challenges or intimacy issues
Fertility struggles or challenges conceiving
Fear of failure - or fear of success
Unexplained or chronic physical pain
Insomnia or disrupted sleep
Compulsive behaviors, emotional eating, or addictive patterns, such as smoking, drinking, or using substances to cope
Self sabotage or repeating patterns that don’t align with who you want to be
(And sometimes, it’s simply a persistent sense that something isn’t right, even if you can’t quite name it.)
Where emotional blocks often begin
Many of us didn’t grow up with the emotional support we needed. Parents and caregivers were often doing the best they could, while carrying unresolved trauma of their own.
Experiences from the past, whether clearly traumatic or more quietly wounding, can leave lasting emotional imprints. Sometimes it’s a major event. Other times it’s repeated moments, words, or relational dynamics that quietly shaped how you learned to protect yourself.
At some point, disconnecting from your emotions, suppressing parts of yourself, or staying hyper-vigilant may have been necessary to get your needs met. What once helped you survive can later become what keeps you stuck.
Emotional trauma can heal.
Trauma is not a personal failure—it’s an injury to the psyche and nervous system. And just like a physical injury, it can heal with the right support.
If you were injured physically, you wouldn’t expect yourself to “think” your way better. You’d seek care, allow time, and support your body’s natural healing process. Emotional trauma works in much the same way.
You may be living with unresolved emotional trauma without realizing it - until it begins to limit your relationships, your confidence, your health, and your sense of fulfillment. It can start to feel like lasting change simply isn’t possible.
But it is.
When trauma is approached as something that happened to you - not something that’s wrong with you - and is gently addressed at its root, profound and lasting change can occur.
The Solution: working with the subconscious mind
I often think of the mind like a garden.
Before something new can grow, the ground needs to be tended — gently clearing what no longer serves. The old emotional patterns, the limiting beliefs, the unresolved experiences that have quietly been shaping your life from beneath the surface.
Only when that space is created can something new take root. And when it does, your whole system begins to respond differently — with greater self-trust, more ease in your relationships, and a deeper sense of being genuinely, authentically yourself.
This is where hypnosis comes in.
Hypnosis creates a state of deep, focused relaxation in which the critical, overthinking mind softens — and something opens up. A direct line to the subconscious, where your emotional patterns, nervous system responses, and core beliefs actually live.
Unlike talk therapy, which works primarily with the conscious mind, hypnosis allows us to reach the deeper layer where those patterns were formed in the first place. And because the subconscious responds to imagery, feeling, and lived experience rather than logic alone, change can happen in a way that feels less like figuring something out — and more like something finally letting go.
In my experience, this is where the real shifts happen. Not just understanding your story differently, but feeling it differently. In your body. In your relationships. In the quiet moments when you notice, almost with surprise, that something has changed.
That's what becomes possible when we work at this level together.
Healing Emotional Pain Program
This is personal, supported work — tailored entirely to you and what you're carrying.
Most clients work with me for 6–9 sessions across 2–3 months, allowing time for meaningful shifts to unfold and integrate naturally. There's no rushing here. Healing happens at the pace your system needs.
Sessions are available in person or live via Zoom and weave together hypnosis, gentle coaching, nervous-system-informed practices, and trauma-informed insight - always following your lead.
You'll also receive customized audio recordings to support your healing between sessions, along with additional tools and resources along the way.
If you're already working with a therapist, this work often complements it beautifully. Many clients find that hypnosis helps them go deeper and integrate their healing in a more embodied way than talk therapy alone.
Healing emotional pain takes courage. And you don't have to do it alone.

“I was taken on a journey that I never even thought was possible, I have come a very long ways in just six weeks. I look forward to doing more work with Laura in the future. I feel myself not only starting to think more of myself than I ever have before, but deep down, I’m also finding that I’m being more kind to myself, and finding a sense of self love for the very first time.
Because of my past, I was a person dealing with many issues like PTSD and many other mental disabilities that have left me in trouble in some important moments in my life. Laura helped me learn a new, more positive outlook on my situation and experiences I can’t thank her enough! ”
