Images move us in special ways and all our thoughts create images, which become the language of the subconscious. Photographers see things differently. They are trained to notice the details. Joan takes her clients on visual journeys in their mind. She's like the summer camp director we all had that helped us notice all the beautiful things along the hiking trail, instead of the mud and sticks and bugs.

I think what sets her apart from other hypnotherapists is that she can take both a practical and a cerebral approach. Joan taps into the visual centers of the brain and guides her clients through the flow of their thoughts. A message usually manifests from that imagery and can shift perspective right away. When people work with Joan, they see big, live changes. She gets results. I believe that Joan being a photographer prior to being a hypnotherapist, has helped her do this.
