About Me 

 

Welcome to Be Joyful Hypnosis, LLC., where I, Joy Frink, am dedicated to guiding you toward a happier, more fulfilling life. As the owner and practitioner, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to every client interaction.

 

My journey into the field of hypnotherapy and coaching began after earning my bachelor's degree in social services from Portland State University in 2011. Since then, I've embarked on a continuous quest for learning and growth, honing my skills through training with esteemed professionals in various specialties including addictions, anxiety and OCD, trauma, grief, weight management, ADD, ADHD, and more.

 

Driven by a fascination with the inner workings of the human mind, I am deeply passionate about helping others overcome obstacles and break through barriers to achieve their full potential.

 

Victor Frankl's poignant words, "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves," resonate deeply with me and underpin my approach to therapy.

 

My personal journey has been marked by struggles with self-worth and a sense of belonging from a young age. Despite outward appearances, I grappled with inner turmoil and a pervasive feeling of unworthiness. Diagnosed with major recurrent depression and PTSD, I traversed a path lined with various therapies and medications, yet found myself sinking deeper into despair.

 

Determined to reclaim my life, I sought alternative solutions and discovered the transformative power of hypnosis. Through this modality, I not only found relief but also rediscovered the joy of living fully and authentically.

 

When I'm not immersed in my work or furthering my studies, you'll often find me in the company of my beloved dogs, Lily and Katie, or indulging my passion for music at the piano.
