Hypnotherapy reaches the patterns that logic alone often cannot change. My work focuses on trauma, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, identity, and the deeply learned responses that shape how you think, cope, react, and see yourself.
With formal training in clinical hypnotherapy and psychology, I work with clients to understand where those patterns came from and create change at the level where they were learned.
About Keele Fishel
My path into hypnotherapy began with formal study. I completed the Diploma in Hypnotherapy with Honors through the nationally accredited Hypnosis Motivation Institute, earning both the Directors Award and Academic Achievement Award, and continued my training through advanced certifications in trauma recovery, therapeutic imagery, NLP, EFT, and regression work.
My degree in psychology shaped the way I approach this work from the beginning. I have always been interested in what sits beneath behavior, the patterns people carry, the ways trauma and identity shape response, and what allows meaningful change to actually take hold.
Over time, my work has become increasingly focused on helping people understand and shift the deeper patterns beneath anxiety, trauma responses, self-doubt, coping behaviors, and the feeling of being disconnected from who they are.
How I Work
I do not approach hypnotherapy as a way to simply manage symptoms. I look for the pattern underneath them, what the mind learned, what it has been trying to protect, and why that response may still be running even when it no longer fits your life.
Sometimes the thing a person wants to change is the problem itself. Sometimes it is the strategy their mind developed around something deeper. Hypnotherapy gives us a way to work with those learned responses more directly, rather than relying only on intellectual understanding.
My role is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood, while also giving the work enough structure to move somewhere. Every session is collaborative, but it is purposeful. We are not just talking about the pattern. We are working to change the relationship you have with it.
Areas of Focus
You may already know what needs to change. The frustrating part is knowing it and still finding yourself pulled back into the same reactions, habits, fears, or ways of coping.
I commonly work with:
-
Trauma and PTSD
-
Anxiety and chronic stress
-
ADHD and neurodivergent patterns
-
Identity, confidence, and self-trust
-
Habits and coping behaviors
-
Major life transitions
-
Spiritual identity and meaning-making
Most people come to me after they have already thought about the problem to death. They know the pattern, they know what it is costing them, and they are exhausted from ending up in the same place anyway. Our work goes underneath that repetition so the pattern can finally stop running the show.
Training & Professional Credentials
My training has been intentionally broad because people rarely arrive with one neatly isolated problem. Trauma can affect identity, anxiety can become behavioral, coping patterns can become deeply ingrained, and meaningful change often requires more than one way of working with the mind.

I continue to approach this work as a serious professional discipline. The techniques matter, the training matters, and so does knowing when to use each one. My goal is to bring enough depth, structure, and flexibility into the room that the work can meet the person in front of me rather than forcing every client through the same process.
The Right Fit Matters
Choosing a hypnotherapist is personal. You should feel comfortable with the person you are trusting with this work, and you should feel like they understand what you are actually trying to change.
A free consultation gives us a chance to talk about what is going on, what you want help with, and whether my approach feels like the right fit for you.
