Meet Your Hypnotist
Welcome!
My name is Lisa Unterkofler and I am passionate about guiding people through the changes they want so they can feel empowered to live a life they love.
I have always been fascinated by hypnotherapy, neurology, psychology and the way people think and behave in general. When I was ready for a career change I considered hypnotherapy but was under the impression I had to have a medical or psychology degree to practice it. I am so thankful that I was wrong! After hundreds of hours of training and multiple certifications, I found my calling. I find that hypnosis has not only given me tools of self-improvement but also allowed me the understanding of how the stories we all tell ourselves keep us behaving in the same ways we want to change. As a hypnotherapist, and not a mental health professional, it is not my job to analyze why people do what they do but rather how they do it. Clients often figure out the 'why' for themselves in the process.
Before studying hypnotherapy, I ran a massage therapy practice for 26 years working one-on-one with clients. There I witnessed people change their level of pain and wellbeing before they were even touched, simply through the power of relaxation, expectation and positive support. Hypnotherapy opens this same door and then takes healing to a much higher level- delivering clients out of life-long limiting beliefs, habits, phobias and pain. I am honored for the opportunity to work one-on-one again, either in person or online, to help you reach your highest potential.
Let Your Journey Begin
As a sole practitioner, I provide both in-person and online sessions tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Lisa Unterkofler is a highly skilled practitioner . Through means of excellent rapport and connection, she uncovers hidden triggers and driving beliefs. Her techniques are profound and effective. I also noticed she is extremely well-resourced. Her relaxing office space and her style & conduct are very soothing and comforting as well. I highly recommend her!

Working with Lisa has been life-changing! She helped me find relief form allergies and to finally break my nail-biting habit that I had struggled with for most of my life. She's warm, compassionate and always professional, and I feel completely safe and understood in every session. One of the things I value most is that she taught me techniques I can use on my own, so I can keep building on the progress we made together. I am so grateful for her guidance and can't recommend her highly enough!

I came to Lisa seeking help for intense anger issues I was experiencing on my daily commute. I felt out of control, anxious and disappointed with my reactive behavior. Lisa gave me tools to reframe my experience and to adjust my attitude regarding things I had control over vs. things I did not control. My ability to stay more calm and detached has made a difference in my blood pressure and my driving experience. I now remind myself that my job is to keep safe and part of that is not bowing up at other people, despite their poor decisions. I am not the police nor the judge.
I recommend Lisa for her skills and ability to listen. She is excellent at identifying triggers and suggesting skills to redirect thoughts and actions, leading me to make healthy choices. I have also begun seeing her for eating issues stemming from my childhood. We are working on resetting my thoughts and breaking free of ingrained learned behaviors. I am making improvements but will continue with more sessions to tackle this deep-rooted problem. Lisa makes me feel safe and comfortable revealing insecurities and behaviors through her kind, thoughtful and generous work. I highly recommend her professional services to anyone looking to better themselves or explore unresolved problems. Breaking free of a negative and ineffective self-talk and mindset was key for me getting out of my own way!

I've been a nail picker/biter for as long as I can remember. I managed to stop actually biting them but remained a picker.
I went to Lisa with this problem. I had mixed feelings about hypnotherapy, but Lisa explained the process and after a great deal of talking, mostly from me, Lisa is a great listener, we began sessions
I think Lisa's voice lends itself to hypnotherapy so well. It's so soothing and I have no trouble relaxing.
After two sessions, I was sitting at home watching TV and realized I was not picking at my nails at all! It's a wonderful feeling. Now Lisa and I are working on my procrastination.
I highly recommend Lisa. She is kind and caring and a truly lovely person, I can't say enough good things about her.

I was referred to Lisa from a friend and could not have been more pleased with the results from our sessions. She was able to create a safe and comfortable space of trust where we worked to tap the issue I have been struggling with for years. The insights I gained during this experience have been incredibly impactful and I am truly grateful for the guidance Lisa has provided me. I was able to move from an unhealthy space to now feeling like I can fill that space with a better version of myself. The burden has been lifted thanks to Lisa! I would recommend her to anyone wanting to improve their life!

I have known Lisa for over a decade through her therapeutic massage practic, and I can say without hesitation that she has fundamentally changed my life. She is an extraordinary listener and healer- someone who has the rare ability to meet people exactly where they are, with compassion, intuition, and genuine care.
Recently, I had the opportunity to see LIsa for a hypnotherapy session focused on body positivity, and it was a truly remarkable experience. She created a safe, calming space where I was transported into a world of self-love, affirmation, kindness, acceptance, and forgiveness. It felt both otherwordly and deeply grounding- an experience I didn't realize how much I needed until I felt its impact.
Lisa has a gift for helping others connect more deeply with themselves. Whether through massage or hypnotherapy, her work is transformative, and I am so grateful to have her as part of my journey toward greater wellbeing.

I felt comfortable with Lisa right away. This made it easy for me to share deeply personal, private details with her, knowing that I wouldn't be judged. Our session together brought up strong emotions, and through it all, she was very gracious and compassionate, allowing me the space and the time to speak and let out my sadness and confusion. She is a highly skilled hypnotherapist --- I felt lost and she knew exactly what to do. My sessions with Lisa helped me to move forward confidently with my life and I am so grateful to her!
