ABOUT ME:
I am a CERTIFIED MASTER CLINICAL HYPNOTHERAPIST with the CANADIAN HYPNOSIS ASSOCIATION and my credentials include having a MASTER'S DEGREE in EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY. I taught at the University of Regina for over twenty years in the following areas: Educational Psychology 821 (theories of intelligence), Educational Psychology 329 (theories of counselling for special education), Educational Psychology 350 (adolescent psychology), Psychology 102 (introductory psychology), Psychology 204 (research methods ), Psychology 311 (adolescent psychology from a cultural perspective), Psychology 310 (child psychology).
In my current hypnotherapy practice in downtown Regina, Saskatchewan, I offer both the traditional trance method and the non-traditional non-trance method of hypnosis. Following, are the particular client-centered therapies for which I have a history and am empirically proficient. When I say proficient, I am expressing that I have delivered each of these therapies in both academic and professional practice. Here is a brief description for each:
All of the aforementioned therapies are considered behavioral therapies, action-oriented and monitored by the therapist/counsellor so to speak. And all of the aforementioned therapies do help those who want to lose weight, quit smoking, sleep soundly, or conquer fears and phobias in practically every regard. Saying this, however, Hypnotherapy, over the years has become my favorite therapy. Hypnotherapy is a healthy therapy of client and counsellor suggested imageries, that create positive experiences to be later re-enacted as a new lifestyle for the client.
To reiterate, I practice both TRANCE HYPNOTHERAPY and NON-TRANCE HYPNOTHERAPY, and for both methods, my niche market seems to be for those wanting to QUIT SMOKING, for those wanting to LOSE WEIGHT, or for those wanting to explore a PAST LIFE REGRESSION.
My clients have had successes with all of these mentioned issues!

When I say proficient, I am expressing that I have delivered each of these therapies in both academic and professional practice. Here is a brief description for each:
- Reality Therapy (RT), now known as Choice Theory, was my first academic study and it served me well. RT was my confidence ticket into guidance, my confidence ticket into private practice, and my confidence ticket to complete a Master’s degree in Educational Psychology. During my past and present years as a professional high school guidance counsellor with Regina Public Schools, RT has always been my go-to model. (Reality Therapy and Choice Theory are from the same hand-books written by William Glasser.)
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) was my first pragmatic system when I did contract work for other agencies.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another model I employed when contracting at another counselling agency,
