Clinical Hypnosis IN VIRGINIA

Calm The Chaos With Clinical Hypnosis - A Safe Way to Heal Trauma

My name is Micah Fleitman, LPC. I am a Hypnosis and trauma therapist in Virginia. I can help you heal overwhelming emotions, poor self-esteem, and painful relationships by fusing Hypnosis with EMDR and other trauma therapies.

Tired of Feeling Like You’re Always on Edge—or Never Enough?

Maybe you’ve done a lot of work on yourself already. And still—something feels stuck. You might find yourself spinning in familiar cycles:

And underneath it all, a quiet voice insists:

“You’re not safe.”
“You’re too much.”
“You’ll be left if they see the real you.”

It’s not that you’re broken. It’s that your body and mind have been shaped by experiences where safety, love, or worth were not guaranteed.

Clinical Hypnosis offers a gentle, focused way to reach the deeper parts of your experience—especially the ones that talking alone can’t quite touch.

Imagine Feeling Grounded and Fully Yourself—Even When Life Gets Hard

You wake up in the morning and your first thought isn’t dread. You don’t feel the urge to scan for danger or review every mistake from the day before. Your breath comes a little easier. Your chest feels a little lighter.

You begin to trust yourself—not because everything is perfect, but because you feel steady inside, even when life is unpredictable.

And in your relationships? You stop waiting to be rejected or abandoned. You feel safe enough to speak your needs. You feel lovable—without needing to perform for it.

How Can Hypnosis Help?

Clinical Hypnosis uses a calm, focused state of awareness to access parts of your mind and body that carry trauma, fear, or self-doubt.

It’s not about mind control or losing awareness—it’s about helping you gently shift from survival mode into a state where healing becomes easier, safer, and deeper.

You no longer have to react from old fear. You get to respond from who you are now: grounded, capable, and whole.

Feel safe and in control enough to heal with Hypnosis.

Let's Get Started

For years, I tried to escape my pain by working harder, being better, doing more. But no matter what I achieved, I still felt unworthy.

It wasn’t until I listened to the parts of me that felt afraid, ashamed, or shut down that I began to heal.

Now, I help others reclaim their sense of safety, worth, and connection.

You’re not broken. You’re carrying pain that never got the care it deserved. With compassion, curiosity, and the right tools, healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone.

Hi, I’m Micah Fleitman, LPC.

I Offer A Holistic Approach to Healing

Trauma touches every part of you: your body, mind, emotions, and relationships. That’s why I combine Clinical Hypnosis with other powerful therapies.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): Releasing What’s Still Stuck

Sometimes the pain of the past doesn’t just fade with time—it stays lodged in your nervous system. EMDR helps your brain reprocess those stuck memories so they no longer feel like a current threat.

Somatic Therapy: Helping Your Body Feel Truly Safe

You might logically know you’re safe now—but your body may not believe it yet. Somatic Therapy works with your body’s sensations, tension, and movement to help it release stored fear and trauma.

Internal Family Systems (IFS): Healing the Inner Parts of You

We all have different “parts” inside—maybe a critical part, a scared part, a part that wants connection, and one that’s afraid of it. IFS helps you recognize and care for each of these parts with curiosity and kindness.

Relational Psychodynamic Therapy: Healing at the Roots

Much of our pain comes from early relationships that taught us we had to hide, shrink, or earn love. Psychodynamic therapy helps us understand how those old patterns are still shaping your present—especially in relationships.

Trauma-Focused CBT: Shifting the Beliefs That Keep You Stuck

Trauma often leaves behind beliefs like “I’m not enough,” “It was my fault,” or “I can’t trust anyone.” TF-CBT helps you identify and shift these painful thoughts so you can see yourself more clearly—and more compassionately.

You Deserve a Healing Process That Cares for All of You

When these therapies work in harmony, healing becomes more than coping—it becomes transformation.

What Clinical Hypnosis Sessions Look Like

Hypnosis isn’t a performance or a magic trick. It’s a gentle, collaborative process built on trust and safety. You are always in control. My job is to guide you toward a space where healing feels accessible. Here’s how the process works:

Create a Foundation of Safety

Before we go anywhere near past pain, we start by helping your nervous system feel safe. You’ll learn simple grounding tools to:

Regulate emotions when they feel too big
Calm the body when it’s in fight-or-flight mode
Stay connected to the present moment

We’ll also spend time getting clear on what you want from this work—and building a sense of trust between us. You set the pace. Nothing is ever forced.

Gently Access the Deeper Layers

Once safety is established, we use guided imagery, breath, or light suggestions to help you enter a calm, inward-focused state—similar to what you might feel during meditation, prayer, or a flow state.

In this space, you’ll explore:

What your body is holding onto and why
Where old beliefs or emotional blocks may live
What certain parts of you need in order to feel safe, seen, and supported

We don’t re-live traumatic events. We stay grounded in the present while allowing your deeper self to guide the healing process.

Rewire Old Beliefs and Strengthen New Ones

As old pain begins to loosen its grip, we gently introduce new, empowering beliefs that are aligned with your truth.

From:
🚫 “I’m not enough”

To:
✅ “I am worthy as I am”

From:
🚫 “It’s not safe to feel”

To:
✅ “I can feel and stay grounded”

From:
🚫 “People always leave”

To:
✅ “I can build safe, mutual relationships”

These beliefs aren’t just ideas—they begin to settle into your nervous system, your emotions, and your sense of self.

Clinical Hypnosis offers a safe, empowering way to heal—without reliving the pain or losing control.

How Clinical Hypnosis Heals Emotions, Self-Esteem, and Relationships

Trauma shows up in how you feel, how you see yourself, and how you relate to others. Clinical Hypnosis helps you shift those patterns so you can move through life with more calm, confidence, and connection.

Soothe Emotional Overwhelm

If you often feel flooded with emotion—or totally shut down—Clinical Hypnosis can help you:

You don’t have to fear your feelings anymore. They can become signals—not threats.

Quiet the Inner Critic and Rebuild Confidence

That voice in your head that says you’re not enough? It probably started as a way to keep you safe—by trying to help you “do better” or “be less of a burden.”

Hypnosis helps you:

You begin to speak to yourself the way you’ve always deserved to be spoken to—with care, trust, and belief.

Feel Safe in Relationships Without Losing Yourself

When you’ve been hurt before, closeness can feel dangerous. You might:

Clinical Hypnosis helps you access and heal the parts of you that still expect danger. As those parts begin to feel safe, connection no longer feels like a threat—it becomes a source of warmth, support, and joy.
