Singing Water with Hailey Lauer

Clinical Hypnosis and Somatic Psychotherapy for Trauma, LGBTQIA+, Neurodivergence, & Pain

Who Gets the Most from my Work?

If you’ve faced trauma (including medical trauma and complex trauma), you’ll find I really get you and I can help you to actually heal and recover.

If you’re LGBTQIA+, you’ll find my learning and understanding as a transwoman to be invaluable.

If you’re neurodivergent, or even just wonder if you are, you’ll find my learning and understanding as an autistic to be invaluable.

You do not need to know all the answers coming in; your curiosity is the important thing. If you’re even a little bit open to surprising yourself, then we’re probably a good match. One of my catch phrases is, “would you like to do an experiment?”

You will get the most from working with me if you desire to learn, grow, and become more fully yourself. Especially if you want to understand how to engage and develop your bodymind connection.

My clients often express relief when they find out that I don’t passively listen or focus only on intellectual insight. They enjoy having an active guide who has creative ideas and practical tools to share. We do work together! Someone once said to me, “so this is what real therapy feels like!”

My training in clinical hypnosis and sensorimotor (somatic) psychotherapy means I can offer you a lot more than just abstract talk. The body and the unconscious mind are both profound resources for healing and empowerment.

I have a special interest in working with folks who experience persistent pain, particularly those who have EDS/POTS/hypermobility and related diagnoses.

Some specific clinical areas where I excel:

Bipolar
Substance use & addiction

My heart sings when I get to work with the folks want to go deeper than just “therapy as usual.” You are my people, and it is my privilege to support you.
