Effective therapy takes some vulnerability, and feeling vulnerable is scary. You deserve someone you can trust: someone who balances warmth and empathy with experience and skill. That's what I bring to every session.
I'm Janet Nahirniak, B.Ed., M.Sc., a Clinical Hypnotherapist in practice since 2006. Learn more about my background and why I do this work.
Hypnosis & Clinical Hypnotherapy
With hypnotherapy, you can finally win those battles you've been fighting for so long. Weight loss, anxiety, trauma, IBS, insomnia: you haven't been fighting your willpower, resolve, self control or determination– the battle's been with the subconscious mind. And that's a verified, certified unfair fight right there.
​
That's where I come in. I've been helping people as a certified hypnotherapist since 2006, and every one of those thousands of hours is in your corner. After an initial assessment, I'll guide you into a hypnotic state, the most direct line to your subconscious mind. That's where old blocks, beliefs and thought patterns can finally be resolved, for good.
Clinical Research Shows the Effectiveness of Hypnosis
There's a ton of scientific research to back up those claims. Scientific interest and evidence supporting the effectiveness of hypnotherapy is only growing. The amount of published research on hypnosis and hypnotherapy has nearly doubled in the last 20 years. And the number of things researchers are investigating as grounds for hypnosis treatment is expanding all the time: anxiety, PTSD, depression, IBS, pain management, and asthma just to name a few.

What People Say - Session Reviews
"One session gave me more results than traditional cognitive psychotherapy in a long run. I'd highly recommend Triumph Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy services if you're looking for self improvement in a safe and non judgmental environment with effective results."
- Ieva R.
"Going to Janet has been truly life changing. I trust her and find comfort dealing with trauma and other things in my life that I had stalemated on in traditional psychologist lead therapy. I am so happy I decided to make that initial leap to see her."
- Andrea L.
"This was my first experience with hypnotherapy, and Janet's easy-going and judgement-free presence made it both pleasant and effective. The results are still with me, and the insights I gained have made me a wiser man. Can't wait to do it again."

What to expect
1. Reach out. Book online, call or email. If you’re wondering whether I can help with your particular issue, the short answer is: if it starts in the mind, it can end in the mind. Still nervous? Ask for a free 15-minute phone chat, and we’ll talk it through.
2. Your first session (two hours). This one is mostly about how we work together. You tell me what’s going on; I listen, assess, explain my approach and how hypnosis works, and we make a plan. If there’s time, we may start with some targeted hypnosis. Afterwards, you’ll receive an email with access to your own virtual file, with your session recordings, educational materials and recordings chosen to support your progress.
3. Hypnosis itself. Clinical hypnosis is deep relaxation with heightened awareness, and you can resist any suggestion you choose, so you’re always in control. Everyone’s experience is different, just like everyone’s dreams are, so don’t expect it to look or feel a certain way. Relax and trust the process.
4. Between sessions. Depending on the issue, we meet weekly or every two weeks, and you listen to specific recordings every day. The listening is the easy part, and it’s what builds new, healthy patterns to replace the old ones. Most people need five to seven sessions; smokers typically need one or two. The more open and coachable you are, the faster things move.
Before you come: skip the extra espresso, bring water, and leave yourself a quiet hour afterwards (no phone, no music with lyrics, no chatting). Your mind is still extra receptive, and you’ll want to protect the work we just did.
