Hi! I'm Tiffany Downing, a Certified Professional Hypnotist and Licensed Massage Therapist. I was trained and certified in professional hypnosis by Leah Agami and the ICBCH (International Certification Board of Coaches and Hypnotists), and in Massage Therapy at BSMI Institute. I began my career as a massage therapist in 2005 with the goal of helping people live better lives. I believe self-care is a MUST in today's busy world.
After years of practicing massage therapy full-time and running a very busy practice, I started searching for a way to continue to help people heal that would put less stress on my body. That’s when I discovered my new found passion and love for hypnosis.
I have been fascinated by the human mind since my first high school human behavior class and continued learning about psychology in college. It wasn’t until I had my own hypnotherapy experience that I realized just how powerful and life-changing hypnosis truly is. It was in that moment, while hypnotized, that I knew I wanted to help other people tap into the power of their subconscious mind and access their own inner healer. I realized that hypnosis was my next career path. With my innate understanding of the body, and my education and training in hypnosis and the human mind, this shift made perfect sense. I found the perfect way to combine both of my passions, as the body and mind are inherently connected.
My main focuses are insomnia, stress relief and relaxation, pain management, mental and emotional block removal, grief, increased confidence, spiritual consciousness and manifestation, and improved focus/concentration. However, I do not limit myself to these areas of practice.
I tailor each session based on my client’s specific goals, needs and challenges, meaning no two sessions are alike.
When I’m not hypnotizing people to change their lives, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Bill, and our sons, Makai and Ryan. If I could have more of anything, it would be animals, but for now I have 1 dog, 2 cats, and a horse. I love to read, and Stephen King is my favorite author, although I enjoy true crime and fantasy as well. I grew up in and around Kansas City, Kansas, where I currently reside.
When most people think of hypnosis, the first thing that pops into their minds is someone clucking like a chicken on a stage. While that is absolutely an example of hypnosis from a stage show perspective, what happens in a clinical setting is much different. You won't do or say anything embarrassing, and you can’t be convinced to do or say anything that goes against your morals and ethics. You have total control over your experience, and if, for any reason, you want or need to come out of hypnosis, all you have to do is open your eyes. Hypnosis is a state of lower brainwave activity that we all experience every day as we wake up from sleep in the morning and as we drift off to sleep at night. It’s that relaxed place between awake and asleep. It’s a state of magnified focus and concentration where you can access the subconscious mind and create powerful and lasting change. The reason hypnosis is so powerful and effective is because it bypasses the conscious, critical mind and allows the subconscious mind to emerge, making it more receptive to positive change and suggestions.

"I'm pissed cuz I'm not hungry... What did you do to me? I am now aware of my eating like I am actually thinking 'am I eating because I am hungry? Bored? Or because it's there?' It's freaking me out a little bit, but not sure if it's a bad thing..."
Wow! I have had a couple sessions with Tiffany but one I wanted to write about in particular. I was having a session with Tiffany on reconnecting with my inner self & it was so moving. Tiffany’s voice is soothing & gently guided me through the most perfect visual, giving me an incredibly emotional experience. I was able to reflect back on that moment & have consistently thought about the emotions that erupted from that powerful script. I would recommend Tiffany to anyone who is new to hypnosis or re-visiting, I’m certain she has a gift to share with you!
My session with Tiffany was wonderful! She tailored things to my needs, used calming imagery, and it resulted in an amazing and immediate result. I feel great, and I couldn't recommend her enough! She delivers really effective hypnosis!
Thank you Tiffany Downing @ The Path Less Taken Hypnosis for creating a special minecraft session for E. He was overjoyed with his session. He told me all about it on the drive home. Thanks for helping him build his self confidence and self esteem back up! If anyone has a child that needs this type of Therapy, I highly recommend reaching out to Tiff. She has help E and I both with her beautiful energy and hypnotic voice. It’s so relaxing and refreshing! Hugs friend!
This is one reason I love what I do!!! I received this beautiful message after this person listened to my Word of the Year hypnosis recording. "Hi Tiffany. Thank you so much. The session was incredible - so relaxing. You have such a beautiful hypnotic voice. I felt the beautiful relaxation and went deep. I was surprised to find my word for 2023 is ALIVE! It’s not one I have thought of before. The thoughts and feelings that came with it were around living a full life, getting back out there and feeling the wind in my hair and the exhilaration of life. Many of my exciting childhood experiences flashed by eg. tearing down hills in billy carts and on bikes, sitting on a roof and watching the world go by, surfing and running free. My mum and cousin passed this year and I’ve been sliding into a melancholy state, and particularly more so leading up to Christmas. I feel more hopeful and ready to take on the new year and experience life more. Thank you so much Tiffany, I loved it! Hope to do more. Have a lovely Christmas and all the best for 2023. Sending gratitude and light 🌟🙏💜"
Tiffany, thank you for this hypnosis session. I am in the middle of a situation where I was dwelling more in my negative thoughts on a certain scenario and the next day I realized mid afternoon I was aware of myself correcting and changing my thoughts to positive take on it. 😊🙏
I asked Tiffany to help me with Dream Recall and becoming more lucid in my dreaming. After one session, my dream work shifted, I am more relaxed as I fall asleep and am able to remember my dreams more clearly.
My hypnosis session went great. I already feel better. I received the inner help I needed to push even more past what blocks me from finding myself, and success. Not just business, but my inner being. If any of you are at all interested, please talk with my sister Tiffany Downing with The Path Less Taken Hypnosis!
Tiffany started out as my massage therapist and I was very interested in giving hypnosis a try when she started that as well. I have to admit I was skeptical as to what effects I would get out being hypnotized but now I am completely sold. I started seeing results of less anxiety, sleeping better and keeping my thoughts together. I have gifted a few sessions and will continue sessions for myself and recommend it to anyone who would like to experience self care, and some healing from within.
Had my first hypnotherapy appointment Tuesday to deal with all the stress from R’s illness. It was one of the most relaxing things I’ve ever done, and after just one session, I’ve found it easier to steer my anxious thoughts to positive ones. Looking forward to having another session soon. I highly recommend Tiffany Downing.
Hey Tiffany, I wanted to let you know I tried a new dance class last night and half way through it something switched in my brain instead of trying so hard mentally I was able to get more into my body and just have more flow and ease and fun with it which is really the point in the first place. I feel like the Hypnosis was able to shift something with me. So thank you!
I have to tell you. Last night was the first time in a long time I slept all night. I actually woke up at 5:30ish to go to the bathroom. No kidding! I don't know when the last time was that happened! It was wonderful!
