Satisfied Clients Speak for Themselves:
Kay is professional, kind and generous

I have known Kay for several years and she is professional, kind and generous. I have also referred some patients to her for hypnotherapy and she was very helpful and effective. I would recommend her without reservation. – K.S., Acupuncturist
Kay was able to exceed expectations!

It has been wonderful working with Kay! She is kind and direct and clearly enjoys her work. I have done hypnotherapy before and know it is a solid tool in helping to clear out some of the negative self-talk that slows down my success.
Finding Kay was serendipitous as I had been searching for a good hypnotherapist to work with since my previous hypnotherapist is in Southern California. She had set a very high bar and Kay was able to exceed expectations!– L.B.
The CD Kay gave me continues to assist me with my anxiety.

As a colleague (I’m a Life Coach), Kay had me to her office as an introduction, while I already knew her as a professional I was really thrilled to have the opportunity to see her “live”.
Kind, directive, beautiful office, helpful, useful, gentle. I’ve done 1,000 self-help things and the CD that Kay gave me continues to assist me with my anxiety. I say “directive” because she culled from what I said about my issues into suggestions towards what would be in our session. Awesome.
–Kenji B.
I thought Kay was great and have benefited from my time with her.
I saw Kay for hypnosis and to learn relaxation techniques. I thought she was great and have benefited from my time with her. As a bonus, she recorded the sessions and sent them to me so that I now use them over and over again. – Jason A.
Kay has given me the tools to achieve my personal freedom
![]()
I am definitely on a journey to live the life of my dreams and feel so grateful that we live in a world were there are wonderful people to help us like Kay. About 10 years ago, when I began “self healing,” I went to a hypnosis session in Berkeley to help with the anxiety I felt around food and my body image. After my one and only session, I thought that it was a nice and pleasant experience, but couldn’t have possibly cured my deep rooted issues surrounding food and body. Several months passed by and I realized my eating habits were were I wanted them to be, without much struggle or effort. I didn’t really think too much about whether or not the session was an influence as I had been obsessed with health even before then. Today, I am healthy and fit and can’t help but to think if that sweet little session was a catalyst.
Many years have passed and now, I am struggling with different issues as life if full of them. During these past years have tried several alternatives from traditional therapy to meditation. I have learned that using certain tools that feel “right” and bring about the progress I desire, help my process of living not feel so overwhelming and daunting.
Hypnosis with Kay, is a tool I recommend. She is warm and inviting and creates a pleasant and soothing atmosphere. Her sessions use a combination of techniques that are grounding and positive. Best of all, her sessions all end with a self hypnosis CD so that you can practice, practice and practice.
As I am beginning to explore the life of my dreams, Kay has given me invaluable tools to help me achieve my personal freedom. Everyday, I am beginning to feel freer and freer. I recommend her highly. Good Luck! — Maya M.
She helped me save a life…mine.

When both my parents died, I was in trouble !
Fortunately I knew Kay Heatherly. Without her help, therapy and loving care & kindness- where would I have turned? To make this short….what she did with me worked and she helped me save a life…mine. — Martina M.
My boyfriend has smoked for over 15 years.
![]()
My boyfriend has smoked for over 15 years, had never tried to quit, and didn’t really know how to go about it. Being a cigarette loather, I decided to find a hypnotherapist to help him. Kay was recommended by a friend, and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. Neither can my boyfriend. He said it ended up being way easier than he expected, and quite frankly has developed more self confidence for overcoming it. — Becky B.
Outstanding.
![]()
Kay is not great at what she does, but outstanding. The process is simple, yet highly effective. I could go on about her, but just call her and see for yourself. She helps your mind find space, positivity, and clarity. — Hal M.
Without Kay and the support of friends, this wouldn’t have happened.

I found myself with an immovable boulder in my life and an alarming lack of energy. By the time I got to session three with Kay, I made the difficult change and moved the boulder. Without Kay and the support of friends, this wouldn’t have happened.
Kay has superb listening skills, gets right to the heart of matters and receives my highest recommendation. — Paul E.

I found her approach very trust worthy and her communication very helpful.
![]()
Kay Heatherly does an in depth assessment of what thoughts and emotions are creating unhappiness in your life. After carefully identifying specific areas of difficulty she develops techniques to address the issues. It is critical to use her tools on a regular basis to see results, however they are very effective. I found her approach very trust worthy and her communication very helpful. I have recomended her to my friends and would continue to do so. This is a proactive approach for developing accountability for your quality of life and taking control over your thoughts and behaviors. — Jennifer M.
Compassionate, proficient, and concise
![]()
What I really like about working with Kay on my emotional problems is that she is compassionate, proficient, and concise. I have the feeling of being accompanied by a very good and helpful soul.
The EFT method was new for me and every time I practice it, I’m flabbergasted by how effective it is. What I love about this specific method is that I can decide where I would like to go and she reinforces and encourages me to find my own way. I trust Kay very much and her intuitive and reliable charisma makes it easy to do so.
Painting had been always my source for expressing myself, but I lost somehow my relation to art and creativity throughout the last 10 years. Kay helped me see that my art is important for me and realize that it fosters my healing process. I had only 5 sessions til now and I got more help from her than in the 80 hours with my former Freudian analyst.
She is a real good match for me and I’m thankful that I found her and that I can get an appointment on Saturdays and Sundays. — Susan P.
I’m much happier now. Thanks, Kay.
![]()
Without getting too deep into my issues, I instantly knew that Kay genuinely cared. She wasn’t huggy-feely; that would be fake. You see, all my life, I was a shy and very nervous person. I averted eye contact. I was a skeptic. I felt shame and hid in the background. But why?
Kay set me straight. She didn’t diddle-daddle. She got the the root of my problem right away. There’s something about her that made me open up. Within the first hour of my first appt, I was in a trance. And I don’t mean the “fall backward into my arms” type of hypnosis. I mean letting go, feeling safe, and looking into myself with clarity.
After four sessions, I won’t say that I’m completely cured. But I am on my way. I can state my opinions at work, make new friends, and tell a stranger that he’s being rude.
Am I typical? Maybe. Maybe not. But I listened to Kay as much as she listened to me. And I’m much happier now. Thanks, Kay. — R.C.
I Was Skeptical, But Hypnotherapy Really Works
![]()
Kay’s semi-alternative hypnotherapy is something that really works! I admit that I was skeptical at first, but if clients listen and keep an open mind, the results are well-worth it. I was struggling to get a high score on the ACT and Kay’s relaxation methods and visualization techniques were incredibly helpful. Because of Kay’s help, I received the score I wanted. I would recommend Kay to anyone who is over-stressed, panicked or just wants to learn how to relax in a new, helpful way. – Sara Z., San Rafael
A Powerful Catalyst for Change
![]()
I came to see Kay because I was dealing with a Sociopath Ex, whose lies and behavior had caused me great confusion and turmoil. Kay helped me shift my Focus and Learn to Ignore and let go of the past. She helped me become clear about the People and Things that I do want in my life. I feel that I can effectively Ignore people with poor intentions, and Enjoy the Life I was meant to have. If you would like to let go of grief or deal with sadness head on- Kay is very good at facilitating Positive Change. I will be continuing to see her in the future. She is Amazing. ~Mia
I feel far more ready to take on my issues with different eyes after a few sessions with Kay.
![]()
I am a natural skeptic and didn’t really understand the idea of hypnotherapy. However, I was pretty stuck in my thoughts and could not separate some conflicting emotions about some major goings-on in my life. I was not sure where to turn until I met Kay, who is a great listener and is able get at the heart of the issues. Her technique relaxed me in a way that helped me separate fact from emotional garbage and make far more concrete decisions. When you are wrapped up in your problems, relaxing and stepping back from the knotted up internal noise and make you far more objective. I feel far more ready to take on my issues with different eyes after a few sessions with Kay.
I look at Kay’s reviews and see that 95 percent of the comments are positive. I really don’t understand why it is not 100%. Anyone who does not benefit from Kay’s expertise must not be open to the idea of hypnotherapy. As far as the comments about a contractual agreement that I read — I cannot see who anyone would object to signing a contract. Someone looking for answers to their internal issues would not be able to find them in just one session and the idea of a contract is just showing a mutual commitment to the process.
As a former high-strung, stressed-out cogitator of every detail who feared moving forward in a healthy way, I recommend Kay quite highly.
– Phil S – SF
I was having extreme anxiety attacks… Kay made them absolutely disappear.
![]()
I thought Kay was wonderful.
I was having extreme anxiety attacks and panic attacks that my psychiatrist wasn’t really helping me with, and Kay made them absolutely disappear.
I had three EFT sessions and these panic attacks I had been having are gone. Gone.
Sadly, my insurance didn’t cover the visits, but I feel I’ve paid a lot more to a psychiatrist who couldn’t help me at all, so there you have it. She was completely worth it and I’m very happy with the results.
-Jean p
From my first session on I felt extremely comfortable with Kay
![]()
I am extremely pleased with the work I did with Kay. She has been a very competent ally for helping me to achieve my goals.
I am a massage therapist and really appreciate and respect the way she conducted our sessions very professionally, that really means a lot to me. We always started on time, she had real clear communication about what we would do, and what my part of the work was.
Hypnotherapy is not something that you go to to have someone else fix you, be clear on that. But, if you’re ready to make some changes in patterns of thoughts, actions, or habits that do not serve your best interest any more, Kay can really help you to make those changes at a deep and effective level. I don’t like regular psychotherapy, and this is not that. I would rather not waste hours and hours of hashing over the past, I’ve done that. I wanted to set intentions for creating a new future, and this work really helped me to do that.
I’ve lost 55lbs, I’m clean and sober, and I quite smoking! I did these things, but fundamental changes in my internal dialogue that Kay helped me to reprogram were very very helpful!
From my first session on I felt extremely comfortable with Kay, and her office is super comfortable and beautiful!
If you’re a healthy sane person looking for help changing some chronic patterns of self sabotaging behavior, I would highly recommend hypnosis with Kay as a powerful part of your plan.

Kay immediately put me at ease and was able to help me gather my thoughts
![]()
I’m from Australia and travel through SF about once a year. I’ve been having some issues with confidence at work and lacking focus to study for my professional exams for the last year but was having lots of trouble articulating exactly what I was feeling. Kay immediately put me at ease and was able to help me gather my thoughts together and process my jumble of negativity. After working with Kay I feel much more positive and capable of dealing with whatever issues I come across. The CDs are great too, whenever I feel myself falling into old habits I can listen to one and feel better again. Next time I’m in SF I’ll be calling in to see Kay.
Thanks again,
-Chris M.
Kay is a gifted therapist, an active listener, and a compassionate spirit
![]()
Kay is a gifted therapist, an active listener, and a compassionate spirit. She has become somewhat of a fixture in my San Francisco life and I’m so thankful to have found her.
I suffer from a severe spinal cord injury and at 26 have been dealing with chronic pain. I searched for a therapist to assist me with the ups and downs of dealing with the emotional, physical and mental pain that comes with traumatic injury. Thankfully, I found Kay. After our initial visit I was certain that she would be a great fit for me. She’s honest and open, and doesn’t ‘sugar coat’ anything. I appreciate her ‘to the point’ approach. It keeps me on my toes and I find our sessions refreshing. I take full advantage of our CD recordings of each session. I even used one of our CDs while in surgery!
Many times, it feels like Kay is a friend, and not a therapist. Not in an unprofessional manner, but in a “this is so easy to talk to her” aspect.
I highly recommend Kay to anyone who is searching for a talented, highly qualified, compassionate, and vibrant therapist.
I am thankful that I found her

Your sessions were extremely helpful
![]()
Dear Kay
The surgery was completely successful and I have been able to substantially reduce my pain medicine.
Your sessions were extremely helpful. I don’t think the surgery, my recovery, or the time with my mother (which is proving somewhat challenging, but manageable) would have been as successful without it.
I’ll be in touch about another session in a few weeks as I progress, catch up on work, and get used to operating with one arm.
Best wishes,
MC
I could tell her anything… she genuinely wanted to help me
![]()
I had a great experience with Kay. I found her to be totally and completely non-judgemental, like I could tell her anything and that she genuinely wanted to help me get to a better place. I told her things that were REALLY hard to say out loud.
Kay helped me to trust my own instincts and to have faith in my beliefs. I especially love the fact that she will create a personalized CD with meditations/light hypnosis that I could play again at home. I actually use the CDs every single night, and they really help me stay on track mentally.
You will need to sign up and be committed to 3 sessions. I think it’s believable that a person would need at least 3 sessions to really tackle their problems. I don’t think one session alone should be seen as a cure-all. I felt like I needed all 3 sessions. I could probably use one more, but thanks to the horrible economy I am financially strapped and can’t afford to see her as soon as I would like.
If you are reading this Kay, thank you for helping me.
She is one of the very best I’ve ever met anywhere in the world
![]()
Kay is vibrant, passionate, compassionate, warm, safe, wise and gifted. Her wonderful guidance has helped me to be catapulted out of some lifelong habits into a sense of grounded freedom, peace, patience, acceptance and understanding. I have seen countless (I mean countless) practitioners over the years to resolve some of these issues and she is one of the very best I’ve ever met anywhere in the world.
I cannot believe the changes that are happening
![]()
Kay Heatherly is AMAZING! I’ve only had three sessions so far with her, but I cannot believe the changes that are happening inside my head, heart and soul. She’s helping me get over grief that I’ve carried for almost 20 years. I’m taking better care of myself and I feel great about myself. I’ve literally NEVER felt this good about my life or myself. She’s turned me around completely. I didn’t think it was possible to get this far. I’ve seen regular therapists and it’s “ok” but it never clicks, it never stays with me, and the therapist always glosses over the problem and moves on without me being ready. Kay LISTENS to me, UNDERSTANDS what my feelings are, gets to the root of my problems and with the combo therapy and hypnotherapy, ahhh, all I can say is she is BRILLIANT. She is worth every single penny. I wish I had found her years ago. Maybe I wasn’t ready then. But thank God I have her now. She is saving my life. Not literally, I’m not suicidal or anything, it’s just that she’s making my life something I’m excited about! I’m actually getting HAPPY! Do you know what that feels like? What an amazing feeling! Free, happy and excited about life. If you are looking for a therapist for any reason, PLEASE consider Kay. She is amazing. She can help you.
Her presence helped get me grounded
![]()
What I love most about working with Kay is that not only does her work and her presence helped get me grounded but she also has a very strong “BS” detector. I think this is instrumental in her ability to be an especially clear guide in creating the space for her clients to find their way out of their own muck. I know that’s been the case for me. While regular therapy certainly has its strengths, I feel that hypnotherapy is like the fast track for moving past old beliefs and unhelpful patterns of thinking; Kay’s kind yet no-nonsense approach is perfect for getting you where you want to be.
Kay has superb listening skills
![]()
I found myself with an immovable boulder in my life and an alarming lack of energy. By the time I got to session three with Kay, I made the difficult change and moved the boulder. Without Kay and the support of friends, this wouldn’t have happened. Kay has superb listening skills, gets right to the heart of matters and receives my highest recommendation.
Kay offers tools that cut to the chase
![]()
Making concrete changes are a hurdle that can be difficult for the most motivated and committed of us. Kay offers tools that cut to the chase and can make a real difference in shifting the forces that keep us stuck in old patterns and behaviors. She is truly caring and focused on moving her clients foward. Her honed listening skills help her tailor her therapy based on your unique personal story. Her guiding points function as messages that self-loop to keep you on track. Kay is a tremendous resource I whole-heartedly recommend.
Breaking free
![]()
Kay has a way of eliciting the key pieces of the puzzle and bringing them to light in a way that reveals factors at play in what may continually trip you up and get you off track. Her techniques enable you to see them, face them, understand them and move forward! In effect, her guidance helps you break through older patterns and behaviors that previously seemed to be immovable. Her hypnotic ‘suggestions’ tailored to my challenges have become like a ‘loop’ that I still hear and help myself with when I need to. I went to see her about food issues and took away alot more from the experience and our time together. A ringing endorsement for Kay!
Kay Heatherly has contributed to my sanity!
![]()
Kay Heatherly has contributed to my sanity! I was preparing for a professional presentation and as the date got closer my fear got greater. Kay?s hypnotherapy work coupled with the EFT dropped me back into my heart and my senses. I was able to connect with my passion for the content of what I was to present. For days prior to the talk, I would listen repeatedly to the cd?s Kay created to facilitate the clear delivery of the talk. The presentation went exceptionally well. Thank you, Kay. Working with you and receiving your support and guidance was a pleasure and made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend Kay?s services for overcoming any issues that are producing anxiety — large or small!

Amazing!

I cannot believe what Kay has done for me. She has given me my life back! I’ve been mourning my parents for almost 20 years and I’m finally at peace. She’s also helping me with weight issues, positive thinking and positive actions. I had no idea I could ever be this happy! I wish I had found her a long time ago. She will get far beyond what a regular therapist can do and very quickly. I love that she gives you a CD to take home of each session that you can listen to each day. It really reinforces what you’ve learned. Personally, I tend to forget from day to day, but this keeps everything in my mind and I can move forward. If you’re lookiing for permanant solutions and want to make your life better, please go see her! I cannot recommend her enough! She’s very caring, really listens and gets to the root of the problem. And her office is so serene, you’ll feel right at home. Very peaceful.
Breakthroughs happen quickly with Kay
![]()
I had no idea how quickly my life would transform by working with Kay! During my very first session I was able to breakthrough some longstanding limiting beliefs and immediately feel a new sense of calm, peace and hope in my life. I’d been reading and taking audio courses for personal development but this process was slow going… In such a short amount of time, Kay warmly and supportively helped me see the old patterns and negative beliefs that I’d been defaulting to my whole life – and then she helped me to let these go. Kay is such an amazing person and hypnotherapist, and she’s so genuine in her desire to help people create a better, happier life. If you know you want to make some changes in your life, don’t struggle with it on your own – go see Kay and she’ll help you feel better and breakthrough your issues faster than you can imagine and in such a comforting, supportive way.
Truly Amazing!
![]()
Kay is amazing! For months, I was unable to let go of a relationship and struggled with the sadness, confusion and anger that permeated my thoughts. Her approach is so kind, caring and inviting. I listened to the CD’s daily and continue to do so, I reclaimed joy and happiness. Her methods and techniques are truly remarkable.
Fantastic! Personnal change that works!
![]()
If you have read all the self help books, tried all the affirmations and are still “stuck” go see Kay. Real results without all the junk. She is such a nice person. Kay really listens to you and helps to make changes immediately. I felt very comfortable and relaxed. I highly recommend Kay!
Kay is Amazing
![]()
Kay is Amazing!! With just three sessions she has helped me to Let Go of certain underlying emotions that I had and come full circle to see the progress I had made. I know now how to deal with these emotions for the rest of my life and feel really thankful for that. I would recommend Kay to anyone! She is warm, caring and her space is totally comfortable! She has helped me in ways I could have never imagined. Everyone should see Kay!!
Kay helped me reclaim my life
![]()
I saw Kay 5 times and it changed my life. I had chronic back pain for 8 years after a back surgery and tried everything: acupuncture, massage, physical therapy, arnica, Salon Pas, therapy, group therapy, steroid injections, even Botox injections (in my back). I took pain pills daily for 8 years, and when I saw Kay, I was having other bizarre physical symptoms too. I went to Kay with a very targeted plan of getting a handle on my physical pain. We worked on that almost exclusively and discussed other issues only insofar as they impacted my pain. Kay is one of the most attentive listeners I’ve ever met. She takes her cues from you for what you want to work on and uses your own language to communicate with you. She makes you a CD each week that she asks you to listen to each day to retrain your brain in the new, more positive path you are working toward. I believe that the brain sets down grooves, ways of thinking about yourself or your body and gets stuck in those paths. I think it takes a daily commitment over a few weeks to lay down new tracks, so it’s important to follow her instructions and listen to your CD each day. I read a book right before seeing Kay, which I think might have opened my mind to the experience, called “Rapid Recovery from Back and Neck Pain” by Fred Amir. He didn’t go to hypnotherapy, but he advocates some brain retraining techniques that I think are similar to hypnotherapy. I had my back surgery at 25, and during the years of pain, I had resigned myself to an early old age, a life of limited physical ability and holding back my friends and family. After seeing Kay, in 5 short weeks, I literally had a whole new life, with almost no pain. I take no pain pills now, I lift heavy objects, pain is only something that enters my mind occasionally, like normal people. It is not my constant companion. I can’t thank Kay enough. I know this may sound new-agey and woo-woo, but I literally tried EVERYTHING ELSE, and this is what worked.
A Balanced Life
![]()
Kay helped me with test anxiety… my GPA in school went up to a 3.6! I am taking an accelerated graduate nursing program and my school schedule is very hectic… one could easily get lost in the “I can’t do this”-feeling but Kay helps me achieve a balance in my life… with positive thoughts, I am able to juggle school work, a part-time job, time with my family, time with my boyfriend and still have some time for myself. Aside from helping me achieve balance, Kay has helped me let go of the negative thoughts that’s been haunting me for so many years… it was good to let go… thank you Kay for everything!
Her guidance has been instrumental in keeping me on track
![]()
I hate to admit it, but I’ve kind of been letting things go over the last few years. I had gained some weight and hadn’t really made any serious attempts to quit smoking. I finally decided that I was tired of being a fat smoker, but knew I would need some back-up. I’ve been seeing Kay for the last several months, and feel that her guidance has been instrumental in keeping me on track. She really helped me get my mind to the right place it needs to be in order for me to stop smokin’ and get movin’. She has a lot of good information on nutrition, and helps you critically think about the choices you make. I’m not sure what kind of mental shift occurred, but I definitely walk more, eat better, and weigh less now that I did 4 months ago. I actually feel motivated to stay healthy, and I haven’t picked up a cigarette since the day I decided to quit
It feels great!
NEVER felt this good about my life or myself

Kay Heatherly is AMAZING! I’ve only had three sessions so far with her, but I cannot believe the changes that are happening inside my head, heart and soul. She’s helping me get over grief that I’ve carried for almost 20 years. I’m taking better care of myself and I feel great about myself. I’ve literally NEVER felt this good about my life or myself.

She helps you work through anything you want
![]()
I met Kay years ago and will admit at first I was pretty hesitant about hypnotherapy. But Kay and I became good friends so I figured I’d give it a shot, hoping that she would not make me bark like a dog or assassinate a foreign diplomat, or something like that. I say this in jest, of course, because what Kay does is not something hokey but rather something quite therapeutic. In essence, she helps you work through anything you want to discuss, offering up subtle suggestions and guidance on how to overcome issues, problems, etc. I would say that the more specific you are, the better your results will be i.e. quitting smoking is easier to work on than just feeling better about yourself. Kay’s a great spirit, very understanding, very approachable, and someone I’d recommend when you are trying to overcome or better yourself. Look at hypnotherapy as a means to improve yourself, much like using a personal trainer for your physical self.
Cannot speak highly enough of her
![]()
I have been seeing Kay for 2 years and have found hypnotherapy’s subtle yet powerful work to have huge results in all areas of my life. I experienced a huge release of habitual ways of thinking which had been holding me back from achieving everything I had wanted at this point in my life. Kay Heatherly’s work is like having your car fine-tuned and getting to drive it on such an expanse of open road that did not previously exist. She is a toure de force of her field and I cannot speak highly enough of her and what she is able to help you evolve into and let go of.
She puts you at ease
![]()
First of all, she puts you at ease, and lets you know you are safe, and in a serious place-not what we usually associate with hypnotism. She asks you what you would like to free-up or modify in your life. She listens non-judgmentally, asks some questions, explains what hypnotherapy REALLY is and relaxes you. She will make tapes specifically for YOU to immerse yourself in and she will care how you are doing. She is a guide and will become a friend.
Professional, results-oriented
![]()
I can finally sleep through the night. After major anxiety and sleep problems, I saw Kay and my life is much better now. I’m not going into my gnarly details but I had to let others know how fabulous Kay is – she is great. Go see her now!
HypnoTherapy by Kay Heatherly Results in a Feeling of Peace and Relaxation
![]()
Kay is highly professional and takes genuine interest in her clients and facilitates their well-being. She has excellent listening skills which she uses to assist her clients. The experience is very positive and provides tools that lead to personal growth. The sessions produce a feeling of peace and relaxation. The recordings made at each session enable clients to recreate session dynamics. I am very enthusiastic about Kay and her methodology and believe that it has a wide range of applications such as alleviating the negative impact of emotions such as grief, assistance with “letting go” of negative experiences or help with goal achievement.

Anxiety Free!

Kay is a deeply caring and trustworthy psychologist. She is concise and helps you get right to the core of your issues in a way that feels safe and enlightening. She uses the Emotional Freedom Technique which is something that you can learn with her and then take home and practice on your own. She also tapes all of her sessions so that you can review them on your own and practice meditation at home. Her office feels like a living room and is extremely relaxing. Kay also is knowledgeable about nutrition which adds a holistic approach to her healing. Thank you so much Kay for helping me!
Excellent way to free yourself from the past

Kay Heatherly helped me find and rescue a 4-year old boy…me. For 43 years I have been plagued by a miserable past. It’s very strange that something simple that I wanted back then and was denied by my parents would carry through to the present. Now that I am free from those awful memories, they suddenly don’t even matter anymore, I can pursue a career that I always wanted. That 4-year old still has the drive and ambition that I thought I had left behind forever. Instead of saying, “if only” now I can say, “let’s get started!” Thank you Kay. I shan’t forget you helped to free myself from those hurtful memories. Let Live!
Kay is fantastic

Kay is very professional yet warm. I was anxious, stressed and feeling overwhelmed so I turned to Kay to help me relax and organize my mood/thoughts based on a referral by a friend who she helped stop smoking. I am so glad I went to see Kay. She helped me feel better after only the first session but each visit got better and better. She even made me a personal, custom relaxation CD which has been a godsend. Go see Kay and she’ll help you deal with whatever you need help with in your life.
An excellent hypnotherapist

Kay Heatherly is so immediately likeable, and such a calm presence that you will see why she is also excellent as a hypnotherapist. Literally change your negative thoughts and behaviors–Kay will guide you. Each session is a centering experience and the tape you take home will back up results. Time spent with Kay is of the highest quality, and she produces results. Karen
