“I used to suffer from fear of flying” –– YELP 5-Star Review
“It was so bad that my palms would break into a cold sweat even during light turbulence. But Kay has helped me so much, with tangible results. On a return flight from Chicago a couple of weeks ago, there was some light to moderate turbulence that lasted about 10 minutes. I’d had an appointment with Kay before the flight — during the turbulence, I was completely calm and without fear, and tangibly, my palms remained dry. When Kay makes suggestions about fears, I try my best to put my trust into the method, but I was still surprised at how effective the therapy turned out to be. My husband sitting next to me complained during the bumps, but I was just fine.”

"I was at a crossroads, and Kay helped me."

"Kay is the real deal. She helped me navigate a challenging moment in life when I was at a crossroads. I got a lot out of only a handful of sessions together––she was immediately helpful and never pressured me to engage in any sort of long-term engagement, which I really appreciate.

"I have new tools I was able to put to immediate use, but more than that, her insightful questions and active listening helped me find the clarity I was seeking. I cannot recommend her enough. P.S. This was written by a real, actual human :)"

“I'm so grateful for Kay's support.”
“I used to overthink and worry a lot, and I didn't have the courage to dream big or go after what I truly wanted. Kay has been so kind and patient, helping me work through the things I wanted to let go of, and guiding me to visualize and focus on the life I want to create. Now I worry less, feel more positive, and things are naturally moving in the direction I desire. I'm so grateful for Kay's support -- life is good, and all is well.”

"Kay Is An Incredibly Compassionate and Skilled Hypnotherapist" – YELP 5-Star Review

From the very first session, she created a safe, supportive space that made me feel truly heard and understood. Her approach is gentle yet powerful, helping me navigate nighttime anxiety in a way that felt natural and effective. She has a deep understanding of the mind-body connection and offers practical tools that actually work. If you're looking for someone who is kind, intuitive, and truly invested in your well-being, I highly recommend Kay. She's a wonderful guide on the journey to greater peace and balance!"

“Kay is a miracle worker!”
“I had a habit I was desperate to break –– and after many attempts to try to stop on my own... she had the magic approach. Kay has a wise and kind way about her -- and was instantly reassuring that I could make progress on my goal.

“There is something about how Kay communicates -- with a calm, knowledgeable strength -- that gave me confidence from the start, that in fact, I could make the changes I wanted to make.

“Kay is part-coach, part-confidant, part-teacher –– and the combination was fantastic. Kay taught me that some habits (smoking, fingernail biting, etc.), can be a strange loop of self-soothing and self-harming (a smart and helpful observation). She also provided so many techniques for me to get over my habit.

“Of the most special tools she gives clients are beautiful soothing meditations that she narrates based on scenarios that feel calming for each client. (She did one for me about listening to ocean waves, and another about walking through a forest in the autumn). But she's got all kinds of other techniques that are incredibly helpful.

“Most importantly, Kay is a super trustworthy professional who has insights into the human condition, which makes her particularly valuable. I would give Kay 6 stars if I could. My gratitude to Kay is immense. Whatever you're struggling with - give her a try. It could change your life.”

“Kay Guided Me Toward Meaningful Insights Right From The First Session” – YELP 5-Star Review
“Kay B Heatherly, CHT, is truly exceptional! I came in with a lot of curiosity and maybe a little skepticism, but Kay’s calm, knowledgeable approach immediately put me at ease. She has an incredible ability to listen and understand deeply, which allowed her to guide me toward meaningful insights right from the first session.

“The hypnotherapy process was both relaxing and transformative. Kay’s approach is gentle yet powerful, leading me to uncover and address areas that have been impacting my life for years. I felt a noticeable shift after each session her work helped me break free from limiting beliefs and patterns I didn’t even know were holding me back.

“If you’re considering hypnotherapy, I can’t recommend Kay enough! She has a way of creating a safe, welcoming environment where real change feels possible.”

“Kay really listened to me and really cared… she’s very calming and wise.”

“I saw Kay in 2019 and at the time I had never paid for services like this before so I was skeptical… She gave me real compassion. She listens deeply, she’s very calming and wise...

“She helped me identify what I wanted to let go of and different things that I wanted to bring into my life. What I remember most vividly was us working on identifying the type of partner I wanted in my life... Six months after I did the session with Kay I met my partner. He fits the exact description of what I had tried to bring into my life in my sessions with Kay. We’ve been together and so happy ever since... I really appreciate how Kay listened to me and really cared for me during such a hard time.”
