I am Dian Griesel, Ph.D., also known as the blogger/podcaster . I am a perception analyst and a highly trained certified clinical hypnotherapist (since 1992, Union 472; NFH 104) For over 30 years, I have counseled individuals and advised corporate teams to unlock potential and transform perceptions through better understanding of how conscious and unconscious feelings, thoughts and beliefs impact every relationship, both personally and professionally. About two years ago, I also began to also offer my clients the opportunity to literally “see” themselves differently via photo-hypnotherapy: A unique art therapy that merges hypnosis with photography. I am a member of the American Counseling Association, the National Guild of Hypnotists and hold a lifetime membership with the International Association of Counselors & Therapists. My objective is always to bring my knowledge, expertise, and compassion to every session. I have authored 15 personal-development, health, and business communication books and have been featured in over 100 media articles. In 2017, as a support tool for my private and professional clients as well as any others who might find my thoughts and ideas valuable, I began sharing my self-help, take-action philosophy through my social media posts. Today, my daily blogs inspire and support over a million people from around the world. I work out of my office studio which I affectionately call: Creative Content Loft. Located in Midtown, New York City, CCL houses full photography capabilities and an event space where my team and I also host community-building events! I still own a public relations firm that is very well-managed by a team of superb senior executives who are highly-skilled at positioning smart, talented people as thought-leaders within their respective fields. (See more under the Business Tab on my website) In 2012, I sold an investor relations firm that I’d founded to a publicly traded bank. In the spirit of full-disclosure, let me also tell you that when I was 57, I was scouted by Wilhelmina New York and invited to join their model roster in an unanticipated life twist: That was big check off the bucket list I didn’t even know I had! Subsequently, I’ve been featured in campaigns by many of the world’s most notable international consumer brands. So, you just never know where my face might pop up in your life. If you want to know more, I suggest a Google search. I believe our self-image impacts every personal & work relationship we enter. Self-image is built upon perceptions we consciously or unconsciously carry regarding ourselves and how we believe others perceive us. These perceptions form the foundation of our sense of, or lack of, self-esteem & self-respect. If you have lost confidence, are questioning your worth, are feeling unattractive or need a self-confidence boost with a real-time, centering mind-set shift - I can help. I offer sessions that include conversation to consciously address concerns, followed by hypnotherapy to address subconscious beliefs. During some sessions, if desired, I add photo-hypnotherapy, a unique art therapy, where, while you are relaxed into a state of active hypnosis, while I'm taking your pictures. The result is that you receive visual proof that my process works -- plus you'll have a great new set of images for your personal or professional use. During sessions, conversation, suggestions, hypnotherapy, breath-work & sometimes photography are intertwined. My clients consistently report that all of our interactions raise their self-esteem, self-confidence & sense of self-worth. If you are ready to explore all of YOUR possibilities and start living more of the life you dream about, perhaps it’s time to book some time with me.
