What Is Depth Hypnosis?

According to the Sacred Stream, "Depth Hypnosis is a spiritual counseling model created by Dr. Isa Gucciardi in the mid-1990s. By synthesizing key principles of shamanism, Buddhism, hypnotherapy, integrated energy medicine, and transpersonal psychology. Depth Hypnosis brings the ancient healing wisdom of many cultures to the unique imbalances of contemporary Western society to help people work through issues quickly and gain long-lasting results on a spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical level. It is a rapid path of transformation.

Since the 1990s, Depth Hypnosis has grown into a successful model with Depth Hypnosis Practitioners practicing throughout the world. People are drawn to work with Depth Hypnosis both personally and professionally due to its insistence on the integrity of the practitioner, as well as its emphasis on empowering the participant. Depth Hypnosis is a fast and effective modality that is nondogmatic and blends well with other therapies and spiritual practices" (Sacred Stream, 2025).

 

Why does Depth Hypnosis work well?

At the heart of Depth Hypnosis is the understanding that you are unique, and so is your path to healing. Rather than giving you answers, Depth Hypnosis guides you to uncover what you need to make the changes you’re seeking in your life. Through this process, you reconnect with your own inner strength and natural ability to heal.

By exploring the roots of current life challenges—through tools like dream work, inner child healing, and regression—you begin to see what’s been driving certain patterns or behaviors. This insight helps you move beyond unconscious motivations and into a more empowered, life-affirming relationship with yourself and the world around you.

Depth Hypnosis invites you to take full ownership of your healing journey. As you explore your inner world—using hypnosis, inquiry, meditation, energy medicine, or even shamanic practices—you’ll work closely with your practitioner to uncover and understand what’s been creating imbalance in your life. This isn’t about being “fixed” from the outside; it’s about becoming more aware, more whole, and more in tune with your true self.

Unlike traditional hypnotherapy, which often relies on suggestions to create surface-level change, Depth Hypnosis goes deeper. It helps you get to the core of what’s really going on, so that symptoms don’t just disappear temporarily, but are truly resolved at the root.

This process has been highly effective in helping people with a wide range of issues, including phobias, addictions, eating disorders, chronic fatigue, depression, panic disorders, IBS, and more. In Depth Hypnosis, symptoms are seen not as problems, but as messengers—pointing you toward what’s ready to be healed (Sacred Stream, 2025).

The story of  how Sacred Innergy came to be

Sacred Innergy is the culmination of my years searching for my own healing and spiritual awakening. Even as a child, I had a curiosity and a need to discover a path to deep and meaningful healing in my life. I was interested in many different healing modalities and searched for the one that would make the greatest change for me. I studied many spiritual traditions and belief systems, trying to find where I fit. I found Depth Hypnosis in 2022 and began studying at the Foundation of the Sacred Stream in Berkeley CA, under Isa Gucciardi Ph.D. (the creator of Depth Hypnosis) in order to heal my own personal trauma. Once I started this self-work, I could see the importance of it and became driven to help others obtain this same life-changing healing. The effects I felt from all levels of my life changed the person I am. I am now a certified Hypnotherapist through the Association of Depth Hypnosis Practitioners and I have completed all the required classes for my Depth Hypnosis Practitioners certification. I am working to complete the certification process now. I am also working on my Shamanic Practitioners certification. I also hold certifications in Life Coaching and Spiritual Life Coaching, among others. I am also a full-time student at Purdue Global University, working on a psychology degree. It is my journey in life to bring this effective healing for the body, mind, and soul to everyone I can. So they can heal their wounds on all levels and find peace and happiness in their healing.

These are the same as in-person sessions, but are available over Zoom if you are unable to come to my office due to your location or other circumstances making in-person sessions unavailable to you.

Where we are located

Sacred Innergy is located 20 minutes outside Idaho Falls, Idaho, off Highway 26. On the Heise exit, just past the four-way stop on the left-hand side of the road. Those who make the peaceful drive to the office are pleasantly surprised by how the short trip allows them time to clear their mind from work or whatever mundane tasks they were previously engaged in and prepare for their session. It also provides a buffer before rejoining reality after the session.
