It’s time to take charge of your life. We can help.

At Summit Hypnosis, our certified professionals use hypnotherapy to help everyday people overcome everyday problems. Sessions are offered in our downtown Tacoma office, or remotely; online.

Hypnosis is safe and effective; it can help anybody.

What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a natural part of our everyday experience. Have you ever daydreamed, or can’t remember much of a drive along the highway? If so, then you’ve experienced a form of light hypnosis. In this focused state of awareness, critical self-talk and old patterns can be bypassed easily as suggestibility is higher than at any other time.

Our Practice

We care about people first and foremost. We understand that you may have tried many treatments before coming to hypnosis to help you with your issue. Your concerns and questions will be treated with respect. Our office in historic downtown Tacoma is safe, cozy, and convenient. Our commitment is to help you resolve limiting beliefs and issues, unlock your true potential, and achieve your goals.

Services

Hypnosis helps people every day with a variety of issues. At Summit Hypnosis we are trained to help clients with issues like:

  • Trauma resolution (with doctor referral)

  • Stress & anxiety

  • Pain relief

  • Stop smoking

  • Changing behavioral and emotional patterns

  • Children’s issues

  • Weight loss

    … and many more.

Summit Hypnosis has developed a way of addressing trauma and trauma responses that is gentle, respectful, and does not involve reliving these upsetting events in order to set you on the path to healing. Trauma creates a spectrum of effects on us: physical, mental, and emotional. When using hypnosis to resolve trauma, we work with the part of your mind that holds the original trauma response.

“My work with Deane Benninghoven was the perfect compliment to all the work I’ve done in therapy over the years. While therapy has made a huge difference in my life, to the point where I decided to become a therapist myself, there have still been automatic feelings that happen when I’m in situations similar to my past, or sometimes for no reason and I have to use my therapy tools to talk myself down. As a therapist, I see this in my clients a lot as well; they gain a lot of tools to handle their feelings and dismantle the negative beliefs they carry from their pasts, but there are underlying responses we can't quite get to cognitively. The hypnosis helped align my body and mind’s automatic responses with more helpful and adaptive responses...This was a wonderful and powerful experience for me and I will be recommending many of my clients to pursue hypnotherapy with Deane, along with their work with me.”
