You Don’t Have to Keep Living With What’s Keeping You Stuck
Maybe it’s anxiety.
Maybe something happened years ago that still affects you today.
Maybe you’re trying to quit smoking, change a habit, work through grief, manage your emotions, rebuild your confidence, or understand why you keep reacting in ways you wish you didn’t.
Or maybe you can’t quite put your finger on it.
You just know something isn’t working anymore.
That’s where we start.

You Probably Already Know What You “Should” Do
That’s usually not the problem.
People tell me things like:
“I know this doesn’t make sense, but I still feel it.”
“I know I need to let it go, but I can’t.”
“I know smoking is killing me. Why can’t I stop?”
“I know I’m safe now, but my body doesn’t seem to know it.”
“I know I shouldn’t care what they think, but I do.”
“I know what happened was years ago. Why does it still affect me?”
That’s because knowing something consciously doesn’t automatically change the patterns you’ve learned over a lifetime.
Your mind learns.
It creates associations.
It develops habits.
It tells stories.
It discovers ways to protect you.
And eventually some of those responses become automatic.
What helped you survive yesterday may be what’s keeping you stuck today.
That’s the Work I Do
I’m Dr. Shane Clements, a Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and the founder of Northwest Georgia Coaching & Hypnosis.
For more than a decade, I’ve helped people understand the patterns beneath what they’re experiencing and develop practical ways to change them.
Sometimes we use hypnosis.
Sometimes we don’t.
Depending on the person and what we’re working with, I may incorporate conversational hypnosis, guided imagery, mindfulness, breathing, tapping, reframing, emotional processing, attention exercises, journaling, or other practical tools.
People aren’t protocols.
I don’t believe everybody with anxiety needs the same technique.
I don’t believe every habit has the same cause.
And I don’t believe you’re a diagnosis that needs to be squeezed into somebody’s predetermined program.
We start with you.
What’s happening?
What do you want to be different?
What have you already tried?
What seems to keep getting in the way?
Then we determine what might actually help.
What Can We Work On?
People come to my office for many different reasons, including:
- Anxiety, stress, worry, and overthinking
- Trauma and difficult experiences that still affect life today
- Smoking and unwanted habits
- Grief and loss
- Fears and phobias
- Anger and emotional reactions
- Confidence and self-esteem
- People-pleasing and difficulty with boundaries
- Relationship patterns
- Performance anxiety
- Feeling stuck or unable to move forward
Sometimes the problem is obvious.
Sometimes we discover that the thing someone originally came to see me about is only the surface of something deeper.
Either way, we don’t have to figure everything out before you reach out.
That’s what the conversation is for.
What About Hypnosis?
Yes.
I’m a hypnotherapist.
I’ve spent more than a decade studying and practicing hypnosis, and I’m not interested in hiding the word because Hollywood and stage shows have given people some strange ideas about it.
But hypnosis isn’t the destination.
It’s a tool.
There are no swinging watches required.
You don’t surrender control.
You don’t bark like a dog or cluck like a chicken.
You don’t go to sleep.
And I don’t magically crawl inside your brain, snap my fingers, and change you.
Hypnosis involves focused attention and can be one useful way of working with thoughts, associations, habits, imagery, and automatic responses.
Sometimes it’s exactly the tool I want to use.
Sometimes another approach makes more sense.
My job isn’t necessarily to hypnotize you.
My job is to help you find the best way to finally change.
Simple, Transparent Pricing
I don’t sell expensive packages.
I don’t charge different prices because one person comes in for anxiety and another comes in because they want to quit smoking.
And I’m not going to ask you to commit to twelve sessions before we’ve even spent an hour together.
Initial Consultation — $50
A 20–30 minute online conversation where we talk about what’s happening, what you’d like to change, what you’ve already tried, and whether I believe I can help.
If you continue, the entire $50 is credited toward your initial session.
Initial Session — $175
This is where we begin the actual work.
If you’ve already completed the $50 consultation, your remaining balance is $125.
Follow-Up Sessions — $95
After that, sessions are simply $95 each.
No package required.
No long-term contract.
No predetermined number of sessions.
Cash payments receive a 10% discount.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
I don’t know yet.
And I’d be suspicious of anyone who tells you they do before they’ve met you.
Some people make significant progress quickly.
Others are working through something that requires more time.
Results vary because people vary.
We’ll evaluate progress as we go.
And there’s something I tell people that occasionally gets a strange look:
My job is to get rid of you as a client.
I don’t mean that flippantly.
I don’t want you dependent on me.
I want you to understand yourself better.
I want you to develop tools you can actually use when I’m not around.
I want you to become more confident in your ability to handle your own thoughts, emotions, habits, and decisions.
And eventually…
I want you not to need me anymore.
About Dr. Shane Clements
I’m Shane Clements, founder of Northwest Georgia Coaching & Hypnosis.
For more than three decades, my work has involved helping people, through ministry, coaching, personal development, and for the past eleven years, clinical hypnotherapy.
Over those years I’ve sat across from a lot of people carrying a lot of different things.
And one lesson keeps showing up:
People make a lot more sense when we understand the story underneath the behavior.
That’s why my approach is practical, individualized, and focused on helping you understand what’s happening rather than simply telling you what you should do.
No magic.
No hype.
No dependence.
Just real people doing real work to create meaningful change.
Maybe It’s Time to Have a Conversation
You don’t have to know exactly what’s wrong.
You don’t have to know whether you need hypnosis.
You don’t have to commit to months of sessions.
You don’t even have to know exactly what you want to say.
Start by telling me what’s happening.
We’ll figure out the next step together.

20–30 minutes online
