Maude Schellhous
CBT · CCHT · Founder
Maude Schellhous founded Sacramento Hypnotherapy following completion of training as a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist (CCHT) in 1995. She then achieved her Certificate of Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in 1999, and has since helped thousands of people reach their goals and often achieve what they did not think was possible. It is Maude’s belief that discovering inner wisdom holds a path to many different areas of our subconscious where we can unlock blockages that can hold us back mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. She is passionate in her work as a Clinical Hypnotherapist, and is most proud when her clients achieve their goals. In 2013 Maude founded California School of Hypnotherapy to teach others how to facilitate healing and empowerment through this beautiful work. Maude has limited openings for new client consultations.

Lorraine White
CCHT
Lorraine is a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and a graduate of the California School of Hypnotherapy. She also holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry from the University of California at Davis, CA. Lorraine’s interest in hypnotherapy began at an early age with her parents, both of whom were hypnotherapists themselves. Starting with her first sessions with them to address her fear of flying to today, Lorraine has concurred many challenges and healed many aspects of her life through hypnotherapy. She knows firsthand the powerful and profound healing that is possible with hypnotherapy. Prior to becoming a hypnotherapist, Lorraine spent more than three decades in the private and public sectors as an environmental scientist and manager. She is no stranger to the extreme stresses and demands of the deadline-oriented, billable hour work environment and the impact it has on employees, families, and friends. Her experience training, coaching, and supporting teams and staff to navigate the challenges of both life and career has proven invaluable in her work as a hypnotherapist. Following her own inner wisdom, Lorraine now guides and coaches clients to rise above their own challenges and heal.” Book with Lorraine →Ready to book your session?
