Meet Me
Hypnotherapist, mentor, drum maker, and tattoo artist on Salt Spring Island.

There is a moment in every creator’s life when they feel the insistent pull from somewhere deep within… a whisper that says “there is more”.
But too often that voice gets buried beneath self-doubt, comparison, negative thoughts, and the fear of being seen. You know you are meant to create boldly, to live from your truth, to channel something unmistakably yours… yet something holds you back from stepping into that version of yourself.
I know this path intimately.
For years my own self-worth flickered beneath layers of uncertainty. I questioned my purpose, doubted my voice, went into freeze rather than stepping into the powerful woman I always felt inside. Life cracked me open again and again: loss, rebirth, spiritual upheaval, mental and physical healing, and rebuilding myself from the ground up.
I have always been devoted to art, and hypnosis became the doorway to my authentic personal empowerment. My no return choice of a life lived audaciously became my liberation.
As I cleared the subconscious debris, something awakened: a wild, magnetic, unapologetic creative force. My inner Muse. The moment I stop asking for permission, everything shifted. The moment I trusted my creative intelligence, I realize I am a sovereign being. And now, this is the gift I offer to the people I serve.
Professional training. Compassionate care. Lasting change.
As a certified Clinical Hypnotherapist trained at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America, I bring a compassionate, collaborative approach to helping people move past mental and emotional blocks, daily stress, unwanted habits and fears, and to support healing.
With 500 hours of education in Integral Hypnotherapy™, I am one of the few hypnotherapists who have received this level of training from a licensed educational institution. The methodology has been scientifically validated through a 4-year National Institutes of Health-funded study. I am a Fellow of the International Board of Hypnotherapy (Cert. F10426-909) and a Certified Medical Support Clinical Hypnotherapist.
Based on beautiful Salt Spring Island, I have spent much of my life exploring the deep connection between the mind, consciousness, emotional well-being, and personal transformation. That curiosity led me to travel extensively, learning how different cultures approach healing and self-awareness, and ultimately to advanced training in medical support hypnotherapy alongside experienced instructors, physicians and researchers.
A personal understanding of transformation
In my late twenties I faced significant health challenges linked to an autoimmune condition. It became a massive turning point in my life. Through years of dedicated personal growth, hypnosis, mindset work, intentional stress reduction and nervous-system regulation, I experienced first-hand just how deeply our emotional patterns and subconscious conditioning influence our physical vitality and peace of mind.
That journey anchored my belief that when you support the mind and body together, incredible transformation is possible. I can now proudly say that I am cleared of these autoimmune issues! I bring that lived experience, empathy and loving encouragement to every session.
Who I work with
I work with creators: established, emerging, and the ones who feel it pulsing within their being. People who know they are the creator of their life but feel scared, overwhelmed, self-critical or disconnected from that part of themselves.
Through hypnosis, mentorship, ritual and mind mastery, I guide people to:
- Recognize and transform subconscious blocks
- Return to wellness
- Process and understand emotions
- Awaken creative intelligence
- Reconnect with intuition, eros, divine inner power
- Find clarity
- Trust their vision
- Create with devotion instead of self-judgment
- Embody creativity
Because creativity is not just something we do. It is who we are. It is our way of healing, expressing truth and communing with a higher power. When we clear the inner static, the Muse returns. We become inspired. We become magnetic. We become the artist of our life.
I help people dissolve self-doubt and awaken their audacious creative power so they can freely live a life of wellness, confidence and in alignment with their divine purpose.
This is where you Be the Muse.

What clients are saying
Corinne's passion and purpose in hypnotherapy shine through in each of our sessions together. This work feels like a vehicle for her wisdom and knowledge to pour out. I always feel safe, and she truly works with you—helping you find what feels true. She asks the right questions and is able to consolidate big emotions or goals into a synthesized format that you can intentionally work with to create meaningful change and ripple effects in your life. Working with the recordings has created so many openings in my life for fruitful evolution, creativity, and nourishment. Everything I go to her with unfolds in unique and unexpected ways, through alignment rather than force or effort.
Corinne holds a powerfully soft, loving and secure container for a deep exploration of the internal landscape. My sessions with Corinne have revealed tender parts of myself that came forward through our shared commitment to bringing light into spaces unseen. I am forever grateful for this work and for the illumination it has offered me.
Let's get to the root, and create lasting change.
