I am so glad to have found Leticia and trusting in her with my recent life challenges and chronic anxiety issues. I did quite some research in finding a Hypnotist throughout San Diego county before I reached out to her. I am so glad I did. The sessions have been truly life changing. Leticia is an excellent listener, compassionate, and very knowledgeable in her expertise. I have only had 3 session so far but I am already seeing amazing progress and change in my subconscious mind. I am so excited to do this journey with her. I am truly blessed and thankful that I have found her. I definitely recommend Leticia and Easy Way to Live Well Hypnosis & Wellness Coaching of San Diego!!

Leticia is a professional, kind hypnotherapist and her hypnosis processes really work. I'm still going through my divorce but the level of peace that I feel is undescribable. So grateful that I found her services when I needed help. I saw her both in her office in La Jolla and Mission Valley and I was let in both offices with the same level of professionalism. I highly recommend her hypnosis services to anyone who needs to feel relief from something they are going through.

I was heartbroken when my husband left me and I was in a very dark place. I wasn't sleeping, eating, I was having major panic attacks and I couldn't get out of bed. I really didn't see a way out and I was hopeless. I desperately searched for help online because I was about to lose my job since I was missing work so much and I needed to figure out how to move on quickly since I have 3 small kids who depend on me and I was tired of feeling sorry for myself. I also couldn't get passed the anger that I was feeling..I was exhausted, my brain was running a million miles an hour and I couldn't shut it off. I knew I didn't want to do therapy because I had done it my whole life and honestly I was just tired of it and of talking about my problems. I just wanted to feel better quickly. On a midnight rabbit hole search on Google trying to figure out what to do I found Leticia's website. It's like she knew me without even knowing me. Even though I didn't know anything about hypnosis and to be honest I was scared and skeptical of it I decided to book a consultation with her anyway. She was warm, companionate, caring, understanding. She took time to hear me and to understand what I was going through. She stayed way past her free 20 minute consultation time and I genuinely felt like all that Leticia wanted to do was help me out the goodness of her heart regardless if I worked with her or not. Her sincerity, positive energy, enthusiasm along with her experience and extremely positive reviews from her past clients who dealt with heartbreak, infidelity and relationship issues who worked with her and who reported finally feeling better and finding peace and clarity had me convinced to take a 4leap of faith. Honestly that was the best decision of my life. I'm just kicking myself for not reaching out to her sooner. Leticia is such a genuine, caring individual who went the extra mile every single day to support me and to help me with tools to help me feel better even the days I didn't have a session with her. This level of care and customer service is rare these days. I felt seen, heard and that she truly had my best interest at heart. I have found peace, wisdom from this horrible infidelity, heartbreak and relationship trauma that my husband caused me. I'm back to loving and enjoy my life and honestly I'm shocked that I'm excited about what comes next in my life. Leticia helped me see in my situation in a whole new light. Through her hypnosis processes she changed how I was thinking and feeling about my circumstances. I'm back to feeling like myself and to living my life to the fullest and it only took 2 sessions to feel significantly better and empowered instead of powerless, scared, angry and stuck. It's amazing and hard to understand how fast Leticia changed me. I got so much more than I expected out of working with her. I can't wait to continue working with her and I'm so grateful for her helping me finding myself again. The peace, clarity and the joy for life that I have now is unexplainable. There is no doubt in my mind I couldn't be here if it wasn't for Leticia at Easy Way to Live Well. Her work needs to be known by more people. Hypnosis is truly freedom and I can attest to that. Leticia is a healer and I'm so happy to call her a friend now. I wholeheartedly recommend her hypnosis services. If you need help in any area of your life please don't waste time like me and just do it. Talk to her. She is what you need. Trust me on that. Take the leap of faith. My kids and I so thankful, I can smile again and even though I'm going through my divorce I feel untouchable and unstoppable. Leticia I don't know how you do it but keep doing what you do. You changed my life for the better, you saved me from myself. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I had a wonderful experience with Leticia. From the moment I met her, I felt comfortable, supported, and completely at ease. She is warm, compassionate, professional, and truly takes the time to listen and understand your needs. The hypnotherapy session was calming and positive, and I left feeling more relaxed, focused, and hopeful. I really appreciated Leticia’s thoughtful approach and the way she guided me throughout the process. I’m very grateful for the experience and would highly recommend Leticia to anyone considering hypnotherapy. She is genuinely caring and creates a safe and welcoming environment.

I had been struggling with passing my board exam when my aunt told me about Leticia. I had never tried hypnosis before, but I decided to keep an open mind. From our first session, Leticia explained the process clearly and made me feel comfortable and supported. Working with her helped me develop tools to manage my test anxiety, build my confidence, and shift toward a more positive mindset. I truly feel that the experience changed my outlook and helped me approach my exam with a different mindset. After working with Leticia, I passed my board exam! Leticia is wonderful, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about her clients. If you’ve never tried hypnosis before, she does an amazing job of walking you through the process and making you feel comfortable. I’m very grateful for the experience and would definitely recommend her!

I came to Leticia with a fear that had been taking up a lot of my thoughts and emotional energy, and after working with her I noticed a real difference in how I think and feel. She helped me look at the issue in a completely different way, and that shift helped more than I ever expected. The progress I made has been real, and I feel much better than I did before. I’m very grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for lasting, positive change.

How the process can help

The Truth About Grief That No One Tells You

1

Time alone is not the healer

People say time heals all wounds, but that’s not quite true. Time passing doesn’t heal grief, it’s what you do with that time that matters.

2

Unprocessed grief can stay buried

Unprocessed grief doesn’t disappear. It gets buried in your subconscious mind where it creates depression, anxiety, physical pain, and emotional numbness.

3

Healing does not mean forgetting

Many people feel guilty about moving forward, as if healing means forgetting the person or relationship they lost. This isn’t true.

Healing means carrying your love forward while releasing the pain that’s keeping you stuck. Hypnosis helps you process grief at the subconscious level so you can honor what you lost while still living.

Frequently asked questions

Common Questions About Hypnosis for Grief and Loss

Can hypnosis help with grief and loss?

Yes, hypnosis can help you process grief at the deepest level , where emotions are actually stored and held. Unprocessed grief doesn’t disappear; it gets buried in your subconscious mind where it can create depression, anxiety, physical pain, and emotional numbness. Hypnosis helps you release pain, anger, guilt, and regret safely, find peace and acceptance, honor your love and memories, and move forward with hope , without forgetting the person or relationship you lost.

What types of loss can grief hypnosis help with?

Grief hypnosis can help with many types of loss including death of a loved one (parent, spouse, child, friend), divorce or end of a significant relationship, loss of a beloved pet, miscarriage or pregnancy loss, loss of health or physical abilities, job loss or career changes, empty nest when children leave home, loss of identity or life purpose, and traumatic or sudden loss. Every program is fully customized to your specific type of loss and personal healing goals.

What grief symptoms can hypnotherapy help with?

Hypnotherapy can help with grief symptoms including overwhelming sadness that won’t lift, guilt about things said or unsaid, anger at the person who left or the situation, numbness and feeling disconnected from life, difficulty sleeping or constant exhaustion, lost interest in activities you once enjoyed, physical pain in your chest or body, and feeling stuck and unable to move forward.

Does healing from grief mean forgetting the person I lost?

No. Many people feel guilty about moving forward, as if healing means forgetting the person or relationship they lost. This isn’t true. Healing means carrying your love forward while releasing the pain that’s keeping you stuck. The goal is to help you separate the love , which you keep , from the pain, which you release. You learn to remember with love instead of only pain, and to honor what you lost while embracing what’s ahead.

How is the grief hypnosis program personalized?

Everyone grieves differently, and there is no right timeline for healing. The grief hypnosis program is completely customized based on your specific type of loss, how long ago the loss occurred, the emotions you are struggling with most, any guilt, regrets, or unfinished business, and your personal healing goals and needs. During sessions you experience deep relaxation where painful emotions can be processed safely, and you may communicate with the person or relationship you lost in symbolic ways that bring closure.

Can hypnosis help with complicated grief?

Yes. When grief lasts longer than expected or becomes debilitating, hypnosis can help you work through stuck emotions and trauma that’s preventing natural healing. Complicated grief often involves deeply buried subconscious pain that talk-based approaches alone cannot fully reach. Hypnosis addresses grief at the subconscious level, where those emotions are actually stored.

Can hypnosis help with pet loss grief?

Yes. Your pet was family, and their loss deserves to be grieved fully. Hypnosis helps you honor the unconditional love you shared while easing the pain of their absence. Pet loss is a real and valid form of grief, and sessions are tailored to meet you exactly where you are in your healing journey.

Can hypnosis help with grief from miscarriage or pregnancy loss?

Yes. The loss of a pregnancy carries unique grief , mourning not just what was, but what could have been. Hypnosis provides a safe space to acknowledge your baby, process your emotions, and heal when others may not understand your pain. Sessions are completely personalized and held in a compassionate, non-judgmental environment.

Is grief hypnotherapy available online or only in person?

Grief and loss hypnotherapy is available both in-person at San Diego offices in La Jolla and Mission Valley, and virtually via Zoom from anywhere in the world. In-person and virtual sessions provide the same personalized, compassionate care. Many clients find virtual sessions particularly helpful as they can grieve and heal from the comfort and safety of their own home.

What does healing from grief look like after hypnotherapy?

You’ll know you’re healing when you can think about your loved one without breaking down, memories bring smiles along with tears, you feel ready to engage with life again, guilt and regrets lose their power over you, you sleep better and have more energy, joy returns and you don’t feel guilty for feeling it, you honor what you lost while embracing what’s ahead, and you carry their love forward into your future. Healing doesn’t mean you stop loving them , it means you stop letting the pain control your life.

Hypnotherapy is a complementary approach and does not replace medical treatment, psychiatric care, or therapy. Always continue prescribed medical treatment and keep your healthcare providers informed.
