Read how lives have been transformed through Hypnotherapy.

Going into my 6th session, feeling so much more confident than when I started. Trying therapy for over a year prior to meeting Darrian and it never gave the results that I am witnessing through hypnotherapy.
Darrian really works through every conversation, offering her own vulnerability, and completing allowing you to become the most comfortable, relaxed version of yourself.
I feel subtle differences in my everyday habits and less racing thoughts that dont serve me. It really does give me hope for real, impactful, positive PERMANENT change.


I enjoyed my time working with Darrian! She was personable, professional, and insightful throughout my sessions. I feel like I was able to turn the corner on the goals we were working towards thanks to her help. I will continue to recommend Darrian to many of my friends and family. Quite frankly, for anyone looking for a Hypnotherapist and or Life Coach, I highly recommend Darrian Knotts!


For over two years I’ve battled with intrusive thoughts. I’ve gone to therapy, I’ve done EMDR but nothing helped. I needed someone to go in my brain and just remove these thoughts and that is exactly what Darrian did. I was a little hesitant to try hypno therapy as I didn’t know how it worked but I am so glad that I tried it, this has been the best experience and it has change my life! Those thoughts and the actions I would taken because of thoughts are no long there. I can handle situation I would have never been able to handle before. I am a completely different person now!
