Frequently Asked Questions

What is NLP and how can it help me?

Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is simply a framework for understanding how we use our senses and neurology to create an internal representation of the external world. It’s the language of our model of the world. Our minds, through the nervous system, experience the world via our senses: sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste. Language allows us to assign meaning to our experiences through images, sounds, feelings, smells, tastes and self-talk. We automatically operate on mental programs or scripts that were developed throughout our youth. NLP provides tools and techniques to transform limiting beliefs, shift perspectives, and create lasting change in thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It empowers individuals to reframe experiences, access inner resources, and align their conscious and unconscious minds to achieve desired outcomes. It’s all about understanding that we run on patterns we created from decisions we once made, repeated, and formed into beliefs that shaped our present identity and, therefore, our reality. With either NLP and Hypnosis, we are able to bypass the subconscious programs we run automatically that sabotage our success and lay down new ones that liberate us from anything less than excellence.

What is Hypnosis and how can it help me?

Hypnosis is a natural, focused state of heightened suggestibility and deep relaxation that allows access to the subconscious mind. It really feels no different than when you get enthralled by a great book and don’t realize how much time has passed or when you are watching an intense movie, and people can walk in front of you, and you don’t even notice. You willfully suspend your disbelief to watch the show or read the story. You remain in charge the whole time you watch that movie, and you know that if something needs your attention, like the oven timer, you will be able to leave that trance-like attention and attend to the oven. Same thing with hypnosis. You are in control, always. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. Just like meditation. Hypnosis is a tool to help with single-minded focus. Through hypnosis, we can bypass resistance, uncover root causes of challenges, and embed empowering suggestions for personal power and growth. It supports you in breaking free from limiting patterns and embracing new possibilities, enhancing your ability to embody change and overcome resistance. Hypnosis has been used in medicine instead of anesthesia during surgeries, is commonly used in birthing to move through the pain and is widely used for habits such as smoking, weight-loss or to pursue a specific outcome. With either NLP and Hypnosis, we are able to bypass the subconscious programs we run automatically that sabotage our success and lay down new ones that liberate us from anything less than excellence.

What is the difference between coaching and consulting?

As a Master Success & Life Coach, my role is to guide you through powerful techniques that tap into your own inner wisdom—your subconscious mind—which holds the record of every experience you've ever had. This means I can coach you effectively on any topic, regardless of my personal background in that field, because true transformation comes from within you.

In contrast, a consultant provides advice based on their specific expertise and training in a particular area, often offering external solutions rather than facilitating internal breakthroughs.

Do you offer single coaching sessions or only programs?

Becoming You Academy: Reset Your Health, Reignite Your Confidence, & Redesign Your Future is a life-changing program to transform your mind, body and life through self-care and mastery. This 8-week online program combines all of my 20+ years of training and experience to help you break free from limiting beliefs and step into a more aligned, empowered version of yourself. Through recorded audio and video sessions, you'll gain the tools for deep transformation at the roots of lasting change. The program also includes a downloadable workbook, occasional live workshops, bonus content, and lifetime access to a dedicated Facebook group for ongoing support.

As a graduate of Becoming You Academy, you can continue your growth with Ally the Mind 1:1 Coaching Membership, which offers personalized monthly coaching calls with me via phone or Zoom. This structure ensures you get the depth, support, and integration needed to see real results and lasting transformation, rather than just a single session of insight without following along with your personal evolution and growth.

Additionally, I offer Breakthrough Sessions and Retreats for individuals, couples, families, and small business groups. These immersive experiences are available as full-day or multi-day sessions, focusing on profound transformation in an entire area of life. Breakthrough Sessions are designed for deep, focused work in a single session.

I'd love to help you decide which option best fits your needs in a Success Call, which you can schedule above. There is additional information on the Work With Me page.

What is your background and qualifications?

I bring more than 20 years of education and experience in holistic transformation for the mind, body, and lifestyle. Originally trained in Holistic Healthcare, I coached people worldwide in my Restoring Wellness program before I shifted my career and education to uncover why some people create lasting change while others repeat the same goals for years - including myself. This led me to study the neuroscience of behavior and perception, ultimately mastering the alchemy of communication and transformation. As a Master Practitioner in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, clinical hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique, TIME Techniques, and life & success coaching, I help others break the cycle and step into lasting change.

More specifically, I am an honors graduate of Holistic Healthcare, Holistic Nutrition, Herbal Remedies and Bodycare, Iridology, and Homeopathy. I am a 200-hr Certified Yoga Teacher and second degree Reiki practitioner. I've been the Director of Education and Marketing of The Wellness Kitchen; presented lectures and workshops in hospitals, gyms, medical offices and schools; worked alongside internationally renowned chefs and leaders in the field of transformation, nutrition, and holistic healing; and I've published in magazines, newspapers, and books in the field of nutrition, transformation, holistic healing, and wine. Long before this, I taught preschool and pursued art history. I am also a private pilot who enjoys travel, fitness and life with my husband and dog in the Pacific Northwest.
