Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a therapeutic technique in which I use guided relaxation to induce a trance state, allowing clients access to the subconscious mind to alter behaviors, habits, and perceptions. It treats conditions like anxiety, phobias, smoking, and pain. Benefits include improved mental/physical control, stress reduction, and habit cessation. 

My clients are able to access the 90% of their minds that is subconscious, bypassing their critical conscious mind. It can help with habit control (smoking cessation, weight loss, etc.), general mental health (treating anxiety, stress, PTSD, panic attacks, and mood disorders), physical issues (pain management, hot flashes, and skin conditions), and performance (enhancing athletic or public speaking performance).

  • Lilian Borges is a highly skilled therapist who brings a myriad of skills to her private practice. Lilian has always made me feel comfortable even when working on delicate issues. Lilian’s creativity as a clinician has helped me achieve my therapeutic goals. The work I have done with Lilian has been life changing. Her talents using Ericksonian hypnosis are in a class of their own. I recommend Lilian to anyone seeking therapy in a creative and safe environment.

    -Suzan Patalano

  • I’ve been fortunate to have Lilian help me navigate several big life transitions, always with her compassion, creativity, authenticity, and very diverse set of therapeutic skills. What I value most in my work with her is how she has guided me to tap into my inner wisdom and to work with my higher self in very practical ways. This adds a dimension to therapy that goes beyond just problem-solving and situational solutions, although she is great at those things, too! This practice, and the relationship with myself that I’ve developed with her help, is enduring and essential to the trust I feel to move forward in life.
