“Stephanie was a key factor in my ability to move out of a debilitating pattern of daily panic attacks. .. since the beginning of that process, I have been panic attack free! She is an empathetic listener and provided tools for me to use daily to stay on track.”
Kristen Vallejo

Because of my own struggles with anxiety and sleep issues, I've spent over 20 years researching anxiety and how it affects every part of our life. I teach resilience as a skill that can be learned, practiced, and incorporated into daily living.

I am different than many speakers/presenters – I am an Integrative Hypnotist.  What the heck is that?  It’s hypnosis and a gazillion other modalities all integrated to find the best way to help people rewire and retrain their brains so they can break free from the chains of stress and anxiety.

I am also the author of “Goodbye Anxiety, Hello Freedom,” with 35 simple ways to calm stress and anxiety.

My first career was as Celebrity Radio DJ “Stevie Knox.” My radio morning show had me spinning into insomnia. I was also a mom to two small kids at the time & I realized I had suffered my entire life from anxiety but didn't know it. The medication worked for a short time & then stopped and things went from bad to worse. I knew I needed to find a way out of the prison of anxiety, so I began researching holistic & natural ways to calm my stress and anxiety. 

I found hypnosis & everything changed. I felt a sense of peace I had never experienced; I was dealing with life better (my husband had been diagnosed with a life-threatening illness) & I knew I had a mission to help others with this knowledge. I began using my voice to literally hypnotize my clients to make incredible life changes just as I had used my voice on the radio to bring listeners back day after day.

Hypnosis is not what we see on TV and in the movies.  It is a powerful way to access our subconscious mind – and THAT is where REAL change happens.
Hypnosis works!

“Forget about therapy and talking through what happened 15 years ago.  This is where the real healing takes place – with Stephanie.”~Janet Johnson

After working with thousands of clients, I came to understand that almost all of the issues I help clients work through are rooted in fear and anxiety!  Fear of being "found out"/Impostor Syndrome, fear that manifests as addictions, weight issues, health issues, financial problems, relationship problems and more...

I have a special talent, and I care deeply for, clients who:

Are ready to change
Are seekers
Know they can be more, do more and have more
Don’t want to waste any more time
Are spiritually open
Are ready to come out of hiding and embrace their true strength

Most of my clients have been down the therapy and/or coaching route and are still struggling.  I have a unique abiliity to drill down and get to the root of the problem and, with gentle healing, help my clients make tiny tweaks for BIG Change.

My work with clients is always unique – each client is unique and each session is unique. It’s like peeling the layers of an onion, layer by layer. During a session, we may use hypnosis, EFT/Tapping, Reiki, NLP, doTERRA essential oils, meditation, hypnotherapy, music and many other techniques and practices. I used to have a set process for how a session would go, and when I finally “let go” and trusted my intuition, the miracles kept showing up! If you’re looking for support and guidance through a challenging situation, you’ve been struggling with a specific issue  or you’re just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I can help you make tiny tweaks for BIG Changes!

Author - Goodbye Anxiety , Hello Freedom

"Stevie Knox"

"Knowing" at the age of 14 that I WAS going to be on the radio (and knowing nothing about the Law of Attraction back then), I pursued my passion and became a very successful on air radio personality; spending most of my time on air in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale market and the last stint on air in Portland, Oregon.

On Air Personality

Empowering women in their 40s to let go of fear, doubt and stress and find lasting peace and joy through hypnosis

For 20 years, I have helped people rewire their brains for less stress, anxiety and sleepless nights and more calm, confidence and FUN.

Unlike traditional approaches which can take months or years, using hypnosis we get RAPID RESULTS FOR LASTING CHANGE.

I am THE VOICE OF CALM; first as Celebrity Radio DJ "Stevie Knox" when I "hypnotized" my listeners to come back day after day, for the past 20 years, literally hypnotizing my clients as an Integrative Hypnotist.
