Lynne M. Nozicka, B.A., C.H.
Lynne Nozicka is an IMDHA Certified Hypnotherapist and Experienced Wellness Practitioner. Throughout her many years practicing hypnotherapy, Lynne has developed and refined non-invasive healing techniques through hypnosis, including: meditation and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). With over 25 years of interest and experience with hypnotherapy and wellness coaching, Lynne has developed treatment programs for reducing stress and anxiety, controlling weight issues, and managing pain. Lynne currently shares her practice with her husband, Harry Nozicka in Highland Park, Illinois.
Lynne’s interests in hypnotherapy and wellness coaching first began when in 1992 whilst giving birth on an airport tarmac outside of the country! With a lack of an epidural, Lynne was forced to coach herself through the pain management; focusing on soothing images and guiding herself through the pain as her daughter was born. This experience proved to Lynne that the mind was indeed a powerful tool and at that point, she wanted to refine her innate ability to work with imagery to impact the body and bring this newfound knowledge to help other people. A cancer survivor, Lynne used both hypnotherapy and wellness coaching as essential pieces for maintaining her wellness. Lynne provides a calm, safe, learning environment for you, and will work with you to provide you with new tools to change your life script.
