Services
Our work is to empower you with tools to heal yourself, be free of what doesn't serve you and to connect with your own natural, open, clarity and wisdom. In the words of a recent client, I have learned that I have the power to let things go on my own. I have the power to really relax my body, to express love and gratitude where I would otherwise find it difficult, and overall to connect with myself and my potential.
From an early age I've been fascinated with how people can harness their creative power to change their lives for the better. The intersection of psychology, spirituality, and holistic approaches to healing continues to move and inspire me. My work is targeted, multidisciplinary and effective.

My over two decades of study and experience in the healing arts, coupled with my intuitive, holistic and multi-dimensional approach to health and wellness consistently brings powerful breakthroughs to my clients.Hypnotherapy sessions with me include a robust educational component, whereby I give my clients biochemical and physiological perspectives on their psychological and emotional experiences.
For nearly 20 years I've been using my understanding of the subconscious and the interplay of thoughts, emotions, behaviours and human physiology to help clients understand the root causes of their suffering and to coach them through transforming themselves at the deepest level.

As a Certified Hypnotherapist and Certified Medical Hypnotherapist since 2003, with a B.Sc. in Biochemistry, and an M.Sc. in Environmental Management, I bring a deep body of knowledge and variety of perspectives to help you make the changes you've been seeking.My studies in urban Permaculture design helped broaden and deepen my understanding the overlaps, parallels and intersections between emotional and ecological health and healing.
Hypnotherapy is founded on the understanding that the subconscious mind has evolved to protect us from harm, as a self-protection strategy. Now that's pretty cool. At times, these self protection mechanisms either no longer work in our favour, or work to some degree but includes undesirable side effects.
By nurturing teens' emotional resilience and wisdom, we are helping build the elders of tomorrow today. We are excited to be continuing this building through our multi-year collaboration with the Horizons Program at Upper Canada College in Toronto, Canada teaching stress reduction, emotional intelligence and self-regulation skills to youth from priority neighbourhoods.

I love the restful liberating feeling I get when I’ve worked with Michael. It’s instant clarity with the ability to choose exactly what I want at the moment. It *feels* real, real good!

I have worked with both Andrew and Michael for the past 2 years. I started out as a client and ended up taking their 10 day hypnotherapy course which Andrew recommended to me. My experiences with hypnotherapy have been life changing and transformational. I am so grateful to have learned so much about emotional healing and healing trauma. I am much more resilient than I have ever been. I no longer feel powerless. It has been a true pleasure to work with both Andrew and Michael. They are so kind and gentle, and genuine and trustworthy. They have helped me in ways I never thought possible. I have

I absolutely LOVED working with Andrew ! I went to see Andrew few years ago in order to confront my fear of confrontations and my writer's block. As an academic and an artist, these skills are crucial for my work, and Andrew helped me clear my past, outdated, modes of thinking and helped me reach my full potential.
Whenever I encounter emotional obstacles that seem too difficult to solve on my own I always seek Andrew's help , and without a fail, Andrew succeeds in helping me with any given problem at hand.
Thank you Andrew!

I came across Michael while looking for a more holistic approach to therapy. I saw that he had extremely positive reviews so I decided to give it a shot. I saw and felt incredible results after my very first hypnotherapy session. Michael makes you feel comfortable (not an easy thing to do when doing remote sessions) he is kind, knowledgeable and very professional. I would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Michael introduced me to Self-Hypnosis, and it entered my life at just the right point. I was contemplating some significant life changes and the process played a pivotal and serendipitous role in allowing me to get real, become more authentic and act with greater confidence and self-knowledge. It is a great tool to counteract negativity, and now I truly cannot imagine my life without it. Michael guides you through the process with ease and clarity, is a very attentive and focused listener as you discuss your goals and aims with him and some of our conversations have had tremendous merit and effect

I attended a Self-Hypnosis Workshop as part of a larger retreat Michael facilitated in New Orleans. It was AMAZING. I appreciated the experiential opportunity to practice various levels of resource states & harmonizing. It was academically stimulating & spiritually enlightening. As a psychotherapist, I was taught some of these skills in conferences. I was not taught it's origin or numerous applications. It was helpful to receive in-depth/holistic context and applicability regarding the tools. Also, Michael was a grounded, knowledgeable, and supportive teacher.

Michael was recommended to me by a friend who had success with some issues by using hypnotherapy. I ended up doing several sessions of coaching with Michael by phone and found him to be very open and a deep listener. He was able to make connections for me that I had not been able to see previously and those insights were definitely helpful to me in my process. Over all I was very happy with the work he did and recommend his service.

My first session with Michael was 10 years ago.. It was a deep and impactful session for me at a very important juncture in my life. I've worked with him since then off and on over the years as needs have arisen and each session connects me to myself and gets me back on track to live my life the way I really want to be living it. Each session has been a unique experience and I appreciate the connection we have made. Thanks!

We all in this world have challenges and hurtles in our own lives and with me it was no exception, I was looking for someone that I could be myself with and figure out different ways of handling situations. When I met Michael, I really felt he got me as weird as that sounds being the first or second time we had met he just got me. In a situation like this you become very very vulnerable and it is hard to be that way, especially for myself. Michael never rushed me, it was at my own pace, he makes you feel that his office is a safe place where you can just pretty much put everything on the table
