MindShift Hypnotherapy
As an experienced and certified coach, I've witnessed what deep, client-centered dialogue can uncover. The same dynamic emerges when I work with clients on a MindShift hypnosis project.
From partnering with you, I'll come away with a clearer understanding of you: the goals behind your goals, and the challenges behind your challenges... ultimately producing a product built entirely around you, and uniquely for you.
You'll select the soundscape, if you would like to have one. You'll also review and approve your script before it's recorded and produced. From all of this, your hypnosis recording will reflect who you are, where you are, and where you want to go.
And, unlike real-time hypnotherapy sessions, your custom recording is yours to keep, available to you anytime you feel called to reinforce the progress you're already making.
How MindShift Works Differently
Research supports what hypnosis practitioners have long observed: your brain responds to imagined experience in almost the same way it responds to actual experience.
So, whether you're visualizing a specific moment, or working through an existing challenge in a new way, a recording crafted around your exact words and goals works differently from a generic one.
The Usual Approach
Most hypnosis recordings available online are mass-produced — built for mass appeal and marketed for mass consumption. They're tied to broad, generalized topics... not to any one customer's specific needs.
But if a product is designed for everyone... does that mean that it's actually designed for no one?
Even some "custom" hypnosis options aren't much different. Often, scripts are drafted from information provided on a form, or in an email — without engaging in meaningful dialogue with a client to collaboratively identify what's actually 'underneath' the request.
The MindShift Approach
Mass produced? No.
Mass distributed? No.
Every recording is handcrafted, one at a time.
Your hypnosis recording will never be repurposed for someone else.
Certain techniques — for instance, the induction and deepening processes that guide you into a relaxed state — follow time-tested and effective approaches.
The direct, indirect, and post-hypnotic suggestions — which constitute the heart of your recording — are crafted solely for you.
Here's how that actually works:
I don't draw conclusions. And I don't tell you what you need.
Because you are the expert on you.
Together, we'll explore and discover the nuances that matter most.
It starts with your Discovery Call, so that we can talk about whether working together on a hypnosis project might be a valuable next step for you.
During our Deep Dive — a 45-minute session — I'll bring curiosity and focused listening — the same skills I've relied upon, and that have served my clients well, for over a decade. You just need to bring yourself — your candor, your openness, and your trust.
Then, I'll weave together everything we explored and discovered, and draft your hypnosis script. You'll have up to 90 days to review it — to ensure that it accurately captures what we discussed, and what you came here to shift.
Once you've actually experienced the recording, I encourage you to set up a time when we can debrief your experience.
Who MindShift Serves
People often turn to MindShift when they're looking to make lasting change in their lives. I've included a partial list of some of the possible areas we could work on together.
As you look through these, please remember — this isn't a fixed menu you choose from. But it does give us a way to begin talking about the shift you want to make.
Said differently, these are invitations to begin a journey — not ending points, or pre-determined destinations.
- Habits & everyday patterns
- Calm & ease
- Fears that hold you back
- Rest & sleep
- Confidence & mindset
- Life changes & relationships
- Focus & clarity
Wherever you begin, we'll go deeper together — uncovering the goals behind your goals, and the challenges beneath your challenges.
Why Work With Cathy
In addition to being a certified hypnotherapist, I served as an ICF-credentialed coach for 14 years. I'm currently working toward the Board Certified Coach (BCC) credential — issued by the Center for Credentialing & Education, and expected in 2027.
I invite you to verify my IBCP certification directly, or review the IBCP Code of Ethics that guides my practice.
I also bring nearly 40 years in human resources and corporate training, as well as 28 years of teaching at four different universities. Along the way, I've partnered with clients and students as they grappled with shifting expectations, evolving standards, or course content that regularly challenged longstanding practices, and — at times — long-held beliefs and mindsets.
That same work — accompanying someone as they shift behaviors, beliefs, and mindsets — is at the heart of what happens in hypnotherapy too.
What has called me all along — sometimes veiled behind the pull of professional milestones — has found new and fulfilling expression through this work.
My commitment is to remain fully present, with you and for you, throughout our work together.
I won't hand you answers. (Spoiler alert: I don't have any.)
I will partner with you to uncover your own wisdom and clarity, offer different perspectives, and listen so deeply that I might even notice insights and patterns you haven't yet recognized.
My own belief in hypnosis isn't just professional — it's personal. I've been a client myself, and I've experienced firsthand what real, attentive hypnotherapy can do.
What's Included, and What Comes Next
As I've already promised, MindShift clients pay one flat fee.
There are no tiers. No upsells. No surprises.
Your recording is yours to keep, and to listen to, whenever you'd like — for as long as it serves you. Please note: you'll have access to your recording for three months after I deliver it to you, so be sure you've saved it — and backed it up — somewhere safe before then.
If you come back for another engagement, you'll receive 10% off the current price, every time, with no cap and no deadline.
If you'd like to give someone else the experience of MindShift, you'll receive a 10% discount off the current price. Please note that this offer doesn't stack with the returning-client discount, or any other discount.
Gifting
Any MindShift client, past or present, can gift a MindShift experience and recording to anyone who is not yet a client, at a 10% discount off the current price (paid in full, up front). There is no limit on how many people a MindShift client may give this to.
Each person may receive a gifted MindShift experience only once, regardless of who's giving it. (Gifts from other Life, Aligned. Studio brands are separate.)
Anyone who receives a gifted recording is considered to be a returning client for any future MindShift purchase, and becomes eligible for the returning-client discount.
The recipient will still experience the full MindShift process, the same as any other client.
