The Arizona HypnotistCognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you spot and change the thought patterns driving how you feel and act. Paired with hypnotherapy, the change reaches deeper and holds longer.
How it shows up
Most people come to CBT because a pattern of thinking, catastrophizing, all-or-nothing thinking, constant self-criticism, is quietly shaping how they feel and behave, often without them fully realizing it’s happening. It shows up as anxiety that seems to come from nowhere, avoidance of situations that “shouldn’t” be a big deal, or a persistent inner critic that colors everything from work to relationships.
How hypnotherapy helps
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more accurate, workable ones. Pattie Freeman is a Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist who integrates CBT principles with hypnosis, so the work isn’t limited to conscious thinking exercises alone; it also reaches the subconscious patterns that keep the old thought habits in place.
That combination matters because thought patterns that have been running on autopilot for years are often harder to shift through willpower or logic alone. Working with the subconscious mind through hypnosis helps the new, healthier patterns take hold more completely and hold up under stress.
What a session looks like
Every new client starts with a free 20-minute consultation, in person at Pattie’s Scottsdale office or by phone or Zoom, to talk through what’s bringing you in and what CBT-hypnotherapy sessions could look like for your situation. From there, sessions run $150 each.
Common questions
Is this regular talk therapy, or is hypnosis actually involved? Both. Sessions combine CBT’s structured approach with hypnotic techniques, so you get the benefits of cognitive restructuring plus deeper subconscious work.
What kinds of issues is CBT used for? It’s commonly used for anxiety, negative thought patterns, low confidence, and stress-related issues, often alongside other modalities depending on your specific situation.
How many sessions does CBT typically take? It varies by person and issue; Pattie will discuss an approach tailored to you at your consultation.
