Why this practice exists
I am Livia — a British multi-disciplinary creative, certified hypnotherapist, and the founder of Trance Atelier.
Fine art and hypnotherapy — is the place I feel most alive.
How I came to this work
In 2019, while expecting my first child, following my intuition, I came across hypnobirthing quite by chance. I was searching for an anchor — something that would allow me to meet birth without fear. What I had expected to learn was a method. What I learned was something deeper: how the subconscious, given the right kind of attention, can compose the experience you wish to bring into your life.
Both of my births were clear proof of that.
What had begun as preparation for birth, has opened into long years of studies in Hypnotherapy, NLP and eventually founding a physical practice.
While on my hypnotherapy journey, I learned how to regulate a decade long struggle with anxiety and remain unmedicated yet functional, while having ADHD.
How I work
Each session at Trance Atelier is composed. I think in compositions — the way a painter thinks — and I bring that habit into every trance I lead. We begin with a conversation. I listen for what change you wish to achieve. Then I design a trance or a series of trances for the individual’s needs. Sessions are currently delivered online, by video, from anywhere in the world.
