One of the best ways I’ve come up with to explain what hypnosis-assisted healing (HAH) is, is that it’s a hybrid of hypnosis and therapy. (and, as usual, I’ll remind you that I’m not a licensed therapist) At Navya, we aim to bring the best of both worlds and combine...
One of the ways in which I like to distinguish the type of work I do with clients is by describing it as Hypnosis Assisted Psychotherapy (HAP). (And right off the gate I’d like to reiterate that I am not a licensed therapist) Borrowing from the world of...

In the process of promoting Navya hypnotherapy, there are many hurdles I face when educating people about what it is. This is partially because the word hypnotherapy comes with its own immediate assumptions, and because of the wide array of different hypnotherapy...
