Testimonial:
"Talia met with my nine-year-old daughter to help with her anxiety. Talia’s calm, positive, and present demeanor created a relaxed, accepting atmosphere where my daughter felt seen and comfortable being herself. She took the time to get to know my daughter and explained how the brain works and how hypnotherapy can help. After the session, my daughter was noticeably calmer and happier—almost as if a weight had been lifted. She slept very soundly that night! My daughter is looking forward to her next session with Talia."

Testimonial:
"I am a 13-year-old middle schooler who sought out practicing with Talia to help with fainting episodes and anxiety. Working with Talia was fun, engaging, and helpful--even virtually!
She taught me what to do when I notice anxiety rising, like trying to distract myself with a different sensation, such as rubbing my hands together or squeezing them. These techniques were subtle so that no one would even notice me doing them regularly. She helped me understand how brains sometimes make us believe things that aren't always true. I was surprised by how some of the techniques we practiced really changed my perspective on how my brain does everyday things."

I love building relationships with young people and helping them explore the power of their minds. I received a Masters in Education from Smith College, and I have been an educator for over 25 years. I've worked with kids and teens as a teacher and I also worked in educational outreach for the Center for Healthy Minds in Madison, Wisconsin. In addition to my hypnotherapy practice, I currently work as an elementary school librarian. My own children are in elementary and high school. Joining me on this journey will be a fun and meaningful experience for your family!
