I'm Jessie Santiago, CCHt. Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist based in Long Beach, California. My degree is in Mind-Body Psychology, and I trained under PhD psychologists, but I veered off the path of traditional psychotherapy and into hypnotherapy. Rather than only working with the conscious mind, I work beneath it, in the place where language is limited and symbolism lives. With me, healing gets to be curious and creative instead of just clinical.

My clients are helpers and healers — psychotherapists, social workers, clinicians, medical students, professors — people carrying a lot. I also work with curious people who want to explore their own subconscious and, most often, with people who have talked it out in traditional therapy and still need another way in. My approach is rooted in clinical hypnotherapy and nervous system regulation through a whole-person lens. We work at the level of the subconscious, where old patterns live and where talk therapy alone can't always reach. If you've tried everything and still feel stuck, start here.
