About Skye Winfrey

I “I look forward to our sessions because I can’t wait for what we’re [going to] work on next.” -Jeanine B.

As an integrative clinical hypnotherapist with over 10 years of practice in counseling and using hypnotic methods, I specialize in helping motivated individuals create profound, lasting transformations that go far beyond symptom relief. My clients don't just overcome their emotional challenges and performance blocks—they unlock new capabilities, deepen resilience, and express their authentic selves. They create breakthroughs, transcend suffering, and unleash their potential to live their best life.

My approach combines rigorous classical hypnotherapy training with innovative modern methods, creating truly personalized programs that address both the symptoms and the deeper patterns that keep people stuck. When we clear what's in the way, like removing boulders from a river, your brilliance naturally flows through, unobstructed.

My Master's degree in Psychology (Meridian University, 2016) with advanced coursework toward a doctoral degree provides a sophisticated understanding of depth psychology, shadow work, and transformational learning. This academic foundation, combined with 8 years of work as a therapeutically-informed coach and counselor, allows me to work with complex internal dynamics while maintaining the highest professional standards. I understand how to operate within my scope of practice and when clients would be better served by a licensed mental health professional.

I deliberately chose to specialize in clinical hypnotherapy rather than proceed with traditional psychotherapy licensing, which enables me to serve clients nationwide through virtual sessions while focusing specifically on the rapid transformation techniques that create the highest-impact, positive, and lasting outcomes. My commitment is to clients' breakthrough results achieved by working at the level of root causes.

ACHE Clinical Hypnotherapy Certification represents the gold standard in hypnotherapy training—600+ hours of rigorous, supervised, in-person instruction from leading experts in the field. This comprehensive program covers advanced hypnotic techniques, clinical applications, ethics, and client safety protocols. Additionally, I host community practice events, providing additional peer-led training and development opportunities. Having worked full-time as a hypnotherapist prior to my training at the Hypnotherapy Training Institute, I have now worked with clients for thousands of session hours.

Additional specialized certifications include:

·       Certified Regression Specialist - Advanced hypnotherapy for deep healing

·       Hypnotic Dreamwork Certification - Specialized approach that leverages dreams for rapid integration and resolution of internal conflicts

·       Master EFT/TFT ("Tapping") Practitioner - Accredited emotional regulation and trauma-release techniques

·       Art of Circling Practitioner - Advanced relational presence training

Ongoing Professional Development includes advanced training in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Life Coaching certification, and continuous study through Landmark Education's transformational curricula.

Finally, I take this work very seriously and ‘do my own work,’ as continuous personal development and integrity matters to me. Although I have specialized training to facilitate these powerful processes, ultimately we are fellow travelers in this journey, you have my respect for taking the first step on this path. And, it is an honor to walk with you and serve as a guide.

My Committment To You

My goal extends far beyond alleviating symptoms. While we address immediate concerns with evidence-based methods, my deeper commitment — the deeper invitation of this work — is helping you access capabilities and resilience you may not have known you possessed. Through 10 years of practice, I've witnessed countless clients discover they have reserves of joy, clarity, and personal power beneath layers of old conditioning and habitual dismay. This work reveals not just who you were before difficulties arose, but who you're capable of becoming when inner obstacles are cleared, now, at this unique moment of your life. Every session is designed around your unique goals and learning style, drawing from neuroscience, somatic therapies, energy psychology, and depth psychology to create comprehensive transformation at multiple levels.

Scope of Practice & Professional Ethics  I practice as a complementary healthcare provider, working collaboratively with your existing medical and mental health teams when appropriate. While I don't diagnose or treat medical conditions, clinical hypnotherapy provides powerful support for symptom management, healing facilitation, and addressing underlying emotional patterns that may contribute to various challenges.  My training emphasizes when physician collaboration is beneficial and maintaining clear ethical boundaries. Whether you're seeking clinical support or performance optimization, you receive the same rigorous professional standards and evidence-based approaches that have helped hundreds of clients achieve their goals.
