Vancouver Hypnosis & Somatic EMDR Therapy for Anxiety, Trauma and more

“I went to Ilona seeking help with ruminating over a stressful situation and struggling with sleeping problems. After just one session, I already felt a sense of calm and ease. My sleep quality significantly improved, and the constant rumination stopped, all thanks to our hypnotherapy sessions. Ilona is an incredibly skilled hypnotherapist, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”

— Martina T.

“I've tried talk therapy and found it comforting, but it didn’t bring significant change. Eventually, I worked with Ilona for six consecutive sessions, and I’m truly amazed by the results!

I had been struggling with sexual trauma and intimacy issues that were impacting my current relationship. I found that I always needed a substance to fully feel comfortable with intimacy. And then something shifted, after just two sessions, and things started to improve. By the fourth session, my challenges with intimacy had eased considerably, and I was able to move past them. To this day, my body and mind respond healthily to intimacy.

I am so blessed to have had this experience. It brings tears of joy to my eyes as I write this. Thank you, Ilona!"

“Ilona’s hypnotherapy skills, combined with her deeply intuitive and compassionate nature, make her a powerful practitioner. She inspires ease and trust. Ilona creates a nurturing environment that allows her clients to be open and vulnerable with a sense of safety.

Many months after our treatments, I still use the affirmations that were anchored during hypnosis. They have a profound effect on me whenever I am feeling troubled or triggered. I would not hesitate to go back to see her and would highly recommend her.”

— Lisa B.

“I had five weekly hypnotherapy sessions with Ilona. Despite my initial resistance and any residual anxiety, I was able to relax fully into this process with her. The trust increased with each session as she witnessed my experience and was skillfully able to guide me to deeper levels of awareness and possibility. I was able to visualize my restlessness and anxiety and release it fully, thus arriving at a new reintegration of all my “parts”, and a kind of rebirth, a new beginning, a fresh start. Beautiful process to shed old patterns and reset into greater possibility.”

— Beverly D.

“Ilona created a relaxing space where I was able to unwind and reflect on my values to inform my growth. She helped me reevaluate my assumptions and create healthy boundaries which I continue to expand upon today. I’m so grateful for the sessions I had with her!”

“It is a pleasure working with Ilona - she is passionate about hypnotherapy, knowledgeable, and cares about how it individually affects me as a patient. The treatment plan is customized to my needs, which are around intimacy and boundary issues in relationships, but the sessions have a positive impact on many areas of my life, including anxiety and rumination. I now have concrete tools to turn to when issues arise, that are easy to access in the moment. Thank you, Ilona!”

I had a great experience with Ilona. She was incredibly empathetic, which made me feel heard and supported during the whole process. I particularly enjoyed her calming presence and personalized approach when dealing with my anxiety issues. The anxiety didn't go away, but I'm managing it WAY better now. I highly recommend Ilona to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled hypnotherapist!
