Services
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy sessions access the subconscious mind to resolve trauma, break unwanted habits, and reduce anxiety. Clients learn to identify root causes of stress while developing personalized mind-body techniques. This approach combines guided imagery with somatic awareness to create lasting behavioral changes through subconscious reprogramming.
Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery
SMGI integrates mindfulness and somatic exploration to address emotional blocks and physical discomfort. Through structured inner journeys, clients reconnect with fragmented aspects of self while cultivating inner resources. This method emphasizes subconscious communication through imagery to achieve profound psychological and physiological healing in a supportive environment.
Trauma Resolution
Trauma resolution focuses on identifying and releasing stored emotional patterns from past experiences. Using guided visualization techniques, clients safely process unresolved trauma while developing grounding practices. The process emphasizes nervous system regulation and integration of fragmented self-aspects to restore emotional equilibrium and personal power.
Stress Management
Stress management programs teach practical tools for immediate nervous system calming. Clients learn breathwork, visualization, and mindfulness practices tailored to individual needs. These techniques help maintain emotional balance while addressing subconscious stress triggers through structured self-inquiry and somatic awareness exercises.
Online Mind-Body Courses
Self-paced online courses deliver structured mind-body healing programs accessible worldwide. Participants receive guided sessions, downloadable resources, and practice frameworks for sustained growth. These programs complement individual therapy while providing foundational skills for subconscious exploration and emotional self-regulation.

Gina's work and inner journey experience is transformational. I did a 6-week package with Gina and discovered more about myself in those six weeks than I did in a year of traditional coaching. I feel lighter, more supported, more clarity. I find it easier to speak my truth and verbalize boundaries I have set with others. Thank you Gina!

Gina Vance is amazing. Part hypnotherapist, mostly shaman, she has helped me change my life for the better in so many ways. Romantically, physically; in terms of my business. Gina helped me to connect all of the dots that seemed so disconnected and to find my way in many areas of my life. Most importantly, she helped me to find my own answers. I highly recommend working with Gina.

Wow! Gina's skillful and adept ability as a mind/body/soul guide enabled me to tap deeply into myself where I was able to feel profound results in ways I never thought possible. She knew how to hold a safe, trusting, non-threatening and non-demanding container for me to do my processes. Her work is sublime and I highly recommend her services!

It's almost impossible to find the words to describe what an amazing person, healer, and teacher Gina is. I've been going to her meditation classes weekly for about six months and have missed a total of 2 classes out of that time- for someone who has trouble keeping the same routine for 2 days, that should tell you something. Gina's classes are transformative and rejuvenating, helping you connect with parts of yourself you didn't know you had lost touch with. What I love is that her classes are for everyone-- from people who think meditation is not for them to experienced meditators. It's a different
