I look forward to every single session with Cheryl! She is kind and supportive, and easily helps me find the new perspectives I need to keep moving forward and grow past feeling stuck. When I found Cheryl, I was in a deep state of fear. Initially, she helped me find a sense of safety, and gave me tools so I could manage my day-to-day life and begin to grow that safety within. Now she has helped me with so much more than that. I addressing areas of my life that have always held me back. I always feel understood and validated, and I know I can change anything in my life by rewiring my brain. Thank you, neuroplasticity! Thank you, hypnosis! Thank you, Cheryl! I am grateful beyond words! Jessica
I started working with Cheryl during an extreme low point after feeling like the tools I had used to help mange my anxiety were no longer working. I was terrified of the idea of hypnosis, but Cheryl walked me through the entire process beforehand to make sure I would be comfortable. Choosing to face that fear was the best decision I could have made. She has helped me tain so many new tools, positive daily habits, and confidence in myself that I did not have before. I look forward to our sessions and always leave them feeling like I am continuing to improve. Kellie
Cheryl is a true professional in the field. Not only does she understand people, she truly cares. Cheryl has just helped me get through the most difficult year of my life. With her hypnosis and her helping me learn the tools to stay positive, I feel better about my situation. I’m not great at expressing myself, but all I can say is Cheryl DeDecker is a great therapist and person. I am lucky to have found her. Daniel

I was having trouble sleeping due to stressful events and chronic nerve pain. Cheryl’s hypnosis recordings were there for me every time I needed them- in the middle of the night! Now she is my “go to” trusted professional! I’ve also enjoyed her many classes and workshops, and found valuable tools at every one! Cathy
I have been working with Cheryl since Covid started and I was struggling with stress. She has given me so many tools to work with my anxieties, and I love our sessions. Since starting our work together, I was diagnosed with breast cancer, and she helped me get through my treatments. I healed up well, stayed positive and experienced very few side effects. She has always inspired me and I am very grateful to her. Susan
I reached out to Cheryl when I started having sleep problems. She is smart and intuitive. Her questions gave me insight into how I was self sabotaging with my story about sleep, and her practical suggestions and tools helped me regain my normal sleep patterns. Several of my friends, who I have referred to Cheryl, are also so grateful for the experience of working with her. Barbara
I sought help from Cheryl for significant pain and anxiety surrounding a root canal. Cheryl’s hypnosis and relaxation techniques helped me calm down and not feel the pain as much, while at the same time I felt refreshed and in control. When it came time for the procedure, the doctor was unable to numb my tooth due to its structure, so I just popped in my earbuds and listened to Cheryl while they did their thing. It gave me a wonderful focus instead of the drill! Afterwards, the hypnosis recording also helped me relax and feel more comfortable as it healed. Craig
I came to Cheryl wanting help with sleep problems. Little did I know how much my life would be transformed for the better. I had been in talk therapy, but I felt I needed to reach my issues at a subconscious level. We worked through sleep, self-esteem and confidence, emotional regulation, and spirituality, and more. The Zoom hypnosis sessions, recordings, and consistent practice, I completely rewired my problematic thoughts and habits, something I didn’t know was possible. I was able to form a healthy relationship to sleep, build my confidence and self-esteem, connect to my spirituality, learn tools to regulate my emotions, identify my core values, and perhaps my favorite- I learned to dream bigger for myself. The tools, techniques, and lessons I learned from Cheryl are ones that I’ll be using for the rest of my life. I cannot express enough how invaluable my time with Cheryl has been. I now feel equipped to handle, work through, and thrive through anything that might come my way with fearlessness and gratitude. Cheryl made me feel comfortable, supported, heard and seen. We shared many laughs and it was a complete joy to work with her. I did not know what to expect when starting, but I never knew I would come out of it feeling like a better version of myself, with the tools and confidence to continue growing and learning. I have recommended Cheryl's services to family and friends and highly encourage anyone thinking of working with Cheryl to do so, you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much. Carley
Working with Cheryl helped me find areas of focus and calm as I was dealing with anxiety while preparing for an important professional exam. She helped me find a personal way to reconnect with myself. I found the program to be relaxing, and taking the time to work on myself was extremely helpful. I continue to enjoy hypnosis work with Cheryl after passing my exam. I am working on rekindling my personal passion and continuing down the ever winding path of self-discovery. I highly recommend Cheryl’s programs! Sarah
For 15 years I could not fly. I worked with Cheryl and now if you landed a plane on my street, I would get right in and fly off. That is my truth and it feels amazing! The first time I flew after the program, I cried almost all the way to my destination, feeling so free. I couldn’t believe it. I was flying without fear, without anxiety. Now I can’t wait to go places and show my kids the world. I could never thank Cheryl enough for this incredible gift and look forward to working with her to improve my health. Elizabeth
I came to Cheryl looking for what I thought would be a quick fix through hypnosis for medical related anxiety. What I found instead was a deep way to rebuild my self-confidence and manage stress. Cheryl was kind, supportive and knowledgeable, providing me with the tools to manage stress and bring me back to myself. Our sessions have made a huge difference, giving me confidence that going forward I am not only prepared to cope with whatever situations arise, but also thrive. Chris
I had the pleasure of having hypnosis sessions with Cheryl. Initially I was seeking help for seasonal allergies that were annoying and robbing me of a good nights' sleep. I have not experienced an allergy attack since my first session with her. What an amazing relief it is to have my health back! She also assisted me in dealing with some personal worries that were waking me up at night and basically stealing the joy from my life. I have shifted my life from being a 'worrier' to a 'warrior'!!! My confidence has soared.
Cheryl's warm presence and friendly, supportive manner led me to an enlightenment of 'I got this' mindset!!! I highly recommend her! Teri
As a previous client of Compass Coaching—undergoing a program resulting in [finally] living tobacco-free after 27 years—I have long held Cheryl and her special superpowers in high regard. Among other truly impressive skills, she is masterful at making her clients feel comfortable, genuinely heard and understood, and, ultimately, sufficiently empowered to change their own lives and trajectories. Her ability to tailor each session and incorporate new developments makes for an ideal experience.
Since that initial engagement five years ago, I experienced the loss of both parents, the pandemic, forced relocation, job changes, health challenges, and a slew other impactful stresses, conditions and events. As might be expected, I had developed certain coping habits. On top of that, I began to feel thoroughly stuck, ill-at-ease, dejected, and desirous of a hard reset.
Upon realizing that I didn't quite know how to effectively manage some negative coping behaviors, I again sought out Cheryl and told her the deal. She suggested a truly invaluable course, “Change Limiting Habits.”
The near-magical and deeply rewarding aspect of working with Cheryl is discovering the deeper layers and components of what, exactly, might be powering certain maladaptive behaviors. She does the excavating with you, and it's not at all an onerous or unpleasant task. Cheryl expertly deploys her considerable coaching skills and mastery of hypnotherapy, and develops a personal, customized approach to the goals of her clients.
As a result, I am now able to manage more of what seemed unmanageable. Better yet, I have a much deeper understanding and appreciation of how and why the mind works as it does. Additionally, Cheryl offers participants a golden toolkit that yields continuous beneficial outcomes after the initial program is concluded. She helps you to realize key empowering aspects of yourself, and then, to activate those qualities to your supreme benefit.
Once again, I am delighted with the way in which we were able to get at many of my habits' root causes and arrive at some truly practical, doable methods of changing the way that one responds to and tries to manage what life tends to deliver. I cannot more strongly recommend her advisement and therapeutic “chops,” and this course is a winner, indeed. David
When I met Cheryl DeDecker, my anxiety and fear levels were debilitating. I wanted to CHANGE the way my brain handled certain situations. I wanted to conquer my fears, not subdue them with medications. I needed the skills to react to my fears in a rational way, and I learned these skills through hypnosis. Amazingly, my brain did most of the work for me! During our sessions, Cheryl used her expertise to create new thought patterns that my brain absorbed naturally. In between sessions, I consciously changed the dialogue happening in my head. This combination was essential for creating invaluable changes in my life. For me, hypnosis has been a concentrated, peaceful, relaxing state of being for my body, while my brain worked on issues that were the exact opposite. An open mind is all it takes! Kim
