Processing Perceptions: The Foundation of Actualization
Welcome! I am Dian Griesel, Ph.D., a perception analyst & hypnotherapist dedicated to transforming lives by helping my clients understand and reframe their conscious and unconscious beliefs for greater personal, professional & business success.
Whether you want to overcome limiting beliefs, maintain focus and attention, manage stress, reduce anxiety, feel happier, improve relationships, boost confidence, achieve new personal or professional goals, eliminate habits that no longer serve a purpose, or change any perception that no longer fits your story, I can help. My goal with each tailored session is to enable you to harness the incredible power of your mind in the fastest, most efficient ways possible. Through our work together, you will improve self-awareness and self-confidence while elevating your self-respect, leading to better communication in all of your relationships. You will also acquire practical skills to reevaluate self-imposed or socially conditioned ideas to ultimately empower yourself.
Sessions incorporate a combination of conscious therapeutic discussion and personalized subconscious support using hypnosis. Upon request, I also offer photo-hypnotherapy, an art therapy that puts you on-set in front of my camera, as we confirm the beneficial results of our work with a portfolio of pictures to prove it. The combination of these powerful approaches is proven to inspire and sustain motivated action.
Private sessions are scheduled and offered in my studio oasis, over the phone or via video (Zoom, WhatsApp or Facetime.) On-site visits are offered, as well. Whatever way we connect, you can always expect a warm, non-judgmental and supportive experience. Your journey begins the moment you decide you are ready to take the first step toward positive change.
ABOUT ME...
I am Dian Griesel, Ph.D. also known as blogger/podcaster @SilverDisobedience 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, the essays on my daily @SilverDisobedience 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 in the Business Tab) 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. You’ll find hundreds of links with my name.
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.
