Going into my 6th session, feeling so much more confident than when I started. Trying therapy for over a year prior to meeting Darrian and it never gave the results that I am witnessing through hypnotherapy.
Darrian really works through every conversation, offering her own vulnerability, and completing allowing you to become the most comfortable, relaxed version of yourself.
I feel subtle differences in my everyday habits and less racing thoughts that don't serve me. It really does give me hope for real, impactful, positive PERMANENT change.

I enjoyed my time working with Darrian! She was personable, professional, and insightful throughout my sessions. I feel like I was able to turn the corner on the goals we were working towards thanks to her help. I will continue to recommend Darrian to many of my friends and family. Quite frankly, for anyone looking for a Hypnotherapist and or Life Coach, I highly recommend Darrian Knotts!

— Madeline H

For over two years I’ve battled with intrusive thoughts. I’ve gone to therapy, I’ve done EMDR but nothing helped. I needed someone to go in my brain and just remove these thoughts and that is exactly what Darrian did. I was a little hesitant to try hypno therapy as I didn’t know how it worked but I am so glad that I tried it, this has been the best experience and it has change my life! Those thoughts and the actions I would taken because of thoughts are no long there. I can handle situation I would have never been able to handle before. I am a completely different person now!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is hypnotherapy the same as hypnotism?

No. Stage shows are entertainment. Hypnotherapy is a goal-focused process using relaxation and guided attention to help you make your own choices.

Will I lose control or reveal secrets?

You stay aware and can pause anytime. You choose what to share.

How many sessions should I expect?

It varies by history and practice. Some feel momentum after 1–2 visits; others prefer several. No results are guaranteed.

Can this help me quit smoking, sleep better, or manage weight?

Many clients use hypnotherapy for those goals. Success depends on your effort between sessions.

Is hypnotherapy medical or mental-health treatment?

It’s a complementary service and does not diagnose or treat conditions. Keep working with your licensed clinician as needed.
