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.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Find answers to common questions about hypnosis for OCD

Can hypnotherapy help with OCD?

Yes. OCD is rooted in the subconscious mind , the part that runs automatic patterns and creates the powerful urges behind obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Hypnosis accesses the subconscious directly to interrupt the OCD loop, calm the nervous system, and reprogram automatic responses. Traditional therapy works at the conscious level trying to convince the logical mind that fears are not real, but the subconscious does not respond to logic. That is exactly where hypnosis works , at the deeper level where OCD actually lives.

What OCD patterns can hypnotherapy help with?

Hypnotherapy can help with many common OCD patterns including intrusive thoughts that will not stop, compulsive checking of locks, stoves, and switches over and over, repetitive cleaning or hand-washing rituals, need for perfect order or symmetry, counting rituals or specific routines that must be followed, fear of contamination that controls daily activities, unwanted violent or disturbing thoughts, and constant reassurance-seeking from others.

How does hypnosis work for OCD?

Through the specialized hypnosis program for OCD, the subconscious mind is accessed directly in three key ways. First, it interrupts the OCD loop by breaking the connection between obsessive thoughts and compulsive actions, reducing the anxiety that fuels rituals, creating new healthy automatic responses, and weakening the grip of intrusive thoughts. Second, it calms the nervous system by lowering overall anxiety and stress levels, reducing the urgency behind compulsive behaviors, and creating genuine relaxation and peace of mind. Third, it reprograms automatic responses by replacing compulsive patterns with healthier habits, building confidence in the ability to resist urges, and eliminating the fear that drives OCD behaviors.

How is hypnotherapy for OCD different from traditional OCD treatment?

Hypnotherapy differs from traditional OCD treatment in several important ways. It offers faster results , while traditional therapy can take months or years, many people experience significant improvement in just a few sessions. It addresses the root cause instead of just managing symptoms by getting to the subconscious programming creating those symptoms in the first place. It is completely natural with no medication side effects such as weight gain, drowsiness, or other concerns. Rather than fighting against thoughts, hypnosis helps change the patterns creating them. And the approach is fully personalized , every OCD experience is unique and treatment is customized specifically to your symptoms and triggers.

How is the OCD hypnosis program personalized?

A completely customized program is created based on your specific types of obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors and rituals, triggers and anxiety patterns, personal goals and lifestyle, and previous treatment history. OCD shows up differently for everyone , some people struggle mainly with checking behaviors, others battle intrusive thoughts, and many deal with both. The program is tailored to your exact experience.

Will I be in control during OCD hypnosis sessions?

Yes. During sessions you are guided into a deeply relaxed state where your subconscious mind becomes open to positive change. You remain aware and in control the entire time , you are never under someones spell. Instead, you are working with the most powerful part of your own mind to create real, lasting freedom from OCD.

What results can I expect from hypnotherapy for OCD?

When you break free from OCD through hypnosis you can expect more time for the people and activities you love, freedom from constant anxiety and worry, the ability to be spontaneous without rigid rituals, improved relationships with family and friends, better sleep without bedtime rituals, confidence that you can handle uncertainty, and peace of mind you may not have felt in years. Practical examples include leaving your house without checking locks five times, getting ready for bed in 15 minutes instead of an hour, and going through your day without constant intrusive thoughts demanding your attention.

Why hasnt traditional therapy or medication fully resolved my OCD?

OCD is not just about willpower or logic. Traditional therapy works at the conscious level, trying to convince the logical mind that fears are not real. But the subconscious does not respond to logic , it responds to the deep programming that is creating those obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Medication may help reduce symptoms but does not address the subconscious root cause. Hypnosis works directly with the subconscious programming, which is why it can reach the level where OCD actually originates.

Is OCD hypnotherapy available online or only in person?
