Theresa Snyder has been working with clients to help them achieve inner balance, personal growth and healing for over 10 years. A Certified Hypnotherapist and a Shamanic Practitioner, she currently maintains her practice in Columbus and Chillicothe, Ohio. She is certified for hypnotherapy by the International Association of Therapists and Counselors and the National Guild of Hypnotists, and is recognized as a Transpersonal Hypnotherapist by the National Association of Transpersonal Hypnotherapists. She has studied core shamanism through Michael Harner's Foundation for Shamanic Studies with author and shaman Sandra Ingerman and shamans Nan Moss and David Corbin. She has also apprenticed with author and shaman Lynn Andrews and studied Celtic shamanism with Tom Cowan. She holds a Bachelor of Music from the University of Cincinnati.

Too often in our society, we focus on healing the emotional and physical parts of ourselves, and constantly feed our intellect, but often forget to nuture and heal our spirit. Spiritual healing is essential to complete recovery and to living a full and productive life, and often, directly effects one's ability to heal emotionally and physically. Hypnotherapy and shamanism work well together to achieve and support healing of all aspects of self: spiritual, emotional, physical and intellectual. Only by including all four aspects of self in the healing process can one achieve complete health and balance. My approach to healing works best in conjunction with traditional and alternative medical practices and psychotherapy. In my practice, I work closely with the client and commune with my own Spirit teachers, as well as the guides and protectors of the client, to determine the best approach for a client.
