OVERCOMING THE STRUGGLES OF
IMPOSTER SYNDROME
IN HYPNOSIS PRACTICE
Are you feeling that nagging self-doubt creeping in as you venture into the world of hypnosis? You’re not alone. Many therapists, healers, and change agents grapple with the fear of inadequacy, wondering if they’re truly qualified to lead others. Let’s dig into those fears together:
QUESTIONING YOUR QUALIFICATIONS: “Am I really qualified to do this work?” It’s easy to feel like an imposter, especially when stepping into new territory. But remember, your unique experiences and insights are invaluable assets.
WORRYING ABOUT YOUR CONFIDENCE: “What if I lack the confidence to lead someone into hypnosis?” The fear of not being able to guide others can be paralyzing. But with practice and community support, you’ll find your voice and strength.
FEAR OF REJECTION: “What if no one wants my services?” The thought of being overlooked can be daunting. Yet, there’s a community ready to uplift and support you, reinforcing that your services are needed and valuable.
CONCERNS ABOUT EFFECTIVENESS: “What if it doesn’t work or I mess up?” The pressure to perform perfectly can be overwhelming. However, through the HypnoSistah™ Collective, you’ll practice with peers, receive feedback, and learn to embrace imperfection as a stepping stone to growth.

Love working with gena
"I simply love working with Gena. I have been to hypnotherapy twice before and didn’t get anything helpful that I’ve retained or used afterward. Gena’s skills have been a saving grace during anxiety attacks. Our sessions are always so enlightening and give me so much understanding of myself and my life so that I can make the necessary changes for growth. She is so down-to-earth and earthy; I love her holistic approach. She is unlike any therapist I’ve ever met.”
