Psychoanalytic Hypnosis

NYC/ Worldwide/Virtual

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD


Nothing changes on its own. Insight can sit alongside a pattern for years without disturbing it-you can know exactly what you keep doing and still keep doing it.

Hypnosis works by creating a state of focused attention. In that state, it becomes possible to approach a pattern differently than talking about it usually allows-a pattern in a relationship, in the body, in how a feeling gets managed before it's even felt. That shift in approach is often where the repetition finally has somewhere else to go.

My work is oriented toward the unconscious dynamics that shape emotional life-the patterns in relationships, in the body, in the stories people tell about themselves, that keep recurring even when they cause pain. I draw on psychoanalytic thinking alongside hypnotherapy, working toward a slower kind of understanding: what a symptom or a repetition might be holding, and what becomes possible once it's actually met.

I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, chronic pain, stress, trauma, relationship or intimacy difficulties, compulsive or repetitive patterns, and disconnection from the body-as well as those exploring questions of desire, identity, self-esteem, and emotional regulation.

Sessions are offered virtually and in person in New York City. The Gamache Center LLC provides professional consultation and hypnotherapy services by appointment.
