Life saver! Christina is awesome. Very kind and straight forward. She really wants to get down to the root of your problems so she can really fix everything. Please go... read more in with an open mind, and you will feel better right away. I've been seeing Christina on and off for the past few years. I used to have a horrible phobia of flying, where I'd have nightmares of just being inside an airport, and since I've seen her, I've flown at least 6 times! Seeing her, tied with going to regular therapy, has helped my anxiety disorder so much. I've even seen her twice virtually, from my own home, and surprisingly it works just as great! Just make sure you have a comfortable and quiet setting.
I highly recommend her services if you have any worries, anxiety, phobias, or even medical issues going on! She can absolutely change your mindset (aka: reprogram your mind!)
9/09/2021I saw Christina for a couple of sessions. It was not what I thought it would be. The hypnotherapy was so generic I feel I could have gotten videos on... read more youtube and it would have done the same. I do not recommend at all. I sought her out because of all the positive reviews but was disappointed. I feel I was scammed. AVOID.
7/27/2021Highly recommend trying a few sessions with Christina. The sessions are through zoom and you can do them while you're laying in bed, it's great! I was a little skeptical... read more at first but after a few sessions Christina completely changed my mind about hypnotherapy. I have noticed many positive changes in my behavior and thought patterns and I got over a breakup faster than I ever have before.
12/20/2020My daughter had a pretty severe needle phobia which lead to panic attacks and within 3 sessions we saw great improvement. Christina did a wonderful job explaining how hypnotherapy would... read more work and all sessions were done remotely which was not only convenient but as successful as an in person appointment- in fact I feel it was easier for my daughter to do this from home as she felt more relaxed. I am delighted how quickly we saw results - must admit I was initially a little skeptical- and can't thank Christina enough for her help with this challenging issue.
10/01/2020I worked with Christina for my phobia of public speaking. In the past, I have at least once in my life fainted, blacked out, threw up, and cried uncontrollably when... read more trying to give presentations for school or work. I couldn't even give a toast as the maid of honor at my best friend's wedding. It was really holding me back and I knew I had to try something different. I had two sessions with her and saw such a drastic change in my anxiety levels that I joined toastmasters. I have been speaking up more at work and am working on perfecting my public speaking skills without the fear and anxiety holding me back. Because I saw such improvement, I also decided to also tackle my phobia of spiders and also my addiction to unhealthy foods. It has only been a few weeks but I feel like a new person! I was especially grateful that she is offering hypnosis through zoom during the Covid quarantine so that I didn't have to waste time waiting for an in-person meeting. I was nervous about it at first, unsure if it would have the same effect but as you can see, that's not the case. I highly recommend working with Christina! She knows her stuff!
9/25/2020My boyfriend was having a hard time passing his paramedic national registry test. We had tried every study guide, tool, had a meeting with a therapist to go over study... read more habits and test anxiety and it wasn't enough. Someone recommended we try hypnosis so after a quick google search we found Christina. He went the first time slightly unsure because its just not a technique we often hear about to test anxiety. After the first session he came out loving it and even said he would go every day if he could! He said he felt so strong and confident at a time that his confidence was pretty low. In addition to finding a tutor who specialized in paramedicine, he went back to Christina the day before his test and again felt really prepared and confident. He took his test the next day and passed! I would recommend Christina to anyone looking to better their lives. Thank you Christina!
5/17/2020Christina is the best! She has helped me with my fear of heights,fear of flying and many other issues. After working with her my anxiety and panic response has decreased... read more significantly and my life has improved immensely. If you are struggling with fears or anxiety I would highly reccomend talking with Christina. There is nothing more important that taking care of our mental health. Christina is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. She has changed my life so much There aren't enough thank you's I could give!
11/27/2019Christina has helped me make important changes in my life. I am shocked by my progress and excited about the future.
I have struggled with various obsessions over the years. Nothing... read more too serious, just things like drinking Redbull and eating late at night. I have strong willpower but I just have not been able to kick some of my habits. This has gone on for 10+ years. I have felt frustrated, defeated and self-loathing with my inability to make better decisions regarding my health. I have seen therapists over the years and have had lots of success in dealing with challenges from my childhood and improving my relationships. However, I have not been able to achieve sustainable success in dealing with some of my behaviors.
My wife heard good things about Hypnotherapy and suggested I give it a try. Without having a good referral, I looked for Hypnotherapists on Yelp and came across Christina.
Even though the reviews were very positive, I did not have very high expectations for my first visit. When I met with Christina, I felt comfortable and open to the process. The results from the first session were pretty amazing. No kidding, I have not had even the slightest desire for a Redbull for the last week. A ten-year obsession was addressed almost immediately. I am still in a state of disbelief and humbled by the progress. I just finished my second session and look forward to seeing how I do with my late-night eating.
11/14/2019Christina has been wonderful and a great help in overcoming many of my issues. I went there initially for help with stress related excessive eating. She helped me get that... read more under control quickly and very effectively. I then worked with her on my social anxiety issues plus correcting my negative self-image problems. I have been ecstatic with the results. She even helped me get my Restless Leg Syndrome under control which is fantastic. I cannot thank her enough for all of her help and I would highly encourage anyone seeking help to take advantage of her therapy. She provided a very positive and supportive environment to help me get through these issues, including accommodating my work schedule. If you need help please see Christina.

I am 53 years old and have struggled with OCD in the form of obsessive fearful thinking for over 32 years. I have seen therapists off and on for... read more years, I've tried energy healing and positive thinking and many other ways of coping, some healthy, some not so much. I've tried anti anxiety medicine and anti depressants, nothing helped. I even saw another hypnotherapist that used a softer method with little change. I really believed that I couldn't be cured and that I could not change. I thought it was genetic as many of my relatives suffer from similar conditions. I thought it was trauma or complex PTSD. I thought I was broken beyond repair.
After reading reviews and viewing her YouTube video that is available on her website (you have to copy and paste) I knew that her more direct approach would help me. Her video is brilliant and she does a beautiful job of explaining altered states, the unconscious mind and the power of hypnosis.
After only two sessions I feel like I've experienced a miracle. The changes are profound. Less negative self talk, less negative intrusive thoughts. When they do arise I'm able to reel myself back in pretty quickly. I'm just doing things without thinking, like exercising. I'm allowing flow without the former ideas of how my day should be structured. I feel good and I feel motivated. My understanding is that the effects of hypnosis trickle down so I anticipate more and more positive change.
Another benefit of Christina's method is that you don't have to go into story or relive any trauma. It's a very directly indirect way of accessing the incredible resources of the mind.
I plan on seeing Christina for several sessions as I truly believe that this work and her specific approach will transform all aspects of my life and being.
8/05/2019Conquered my needle phobia!!
The only thing holding me back from pursuing nursing as a career was my needle phobia. I would reliably pass out (vasovagal syncope reflex!) when around a... read more needle. It didn't even have to be me getting the pointy end. There was no traumatic event, just a wildly irrational reaction (my whole life) that I couldn't shake with logic or willpower.
I found Christina on yelp, signed up for a package of sessions and it only took two! It might have only taken the one, but I wasn't challenged with a situation between my first and second sessions. The day after my second session, I was in a clinical rotation and the challenge moment arrived: I was expected to give an injection to a patient. I did it! With no anxiety, only calmness and confidence. Then I gave five more that day. Hasn't been an issue since.
It's not a crazy process. You're just ultra-relaxed, being talked through guided imagery, you use your imagination as prompted. And viola! Brain reprogrammed. I'll be coming back for sure, to tackle other psychological blocks keeping me from reaching my fullest potential.
3/01/2018After seeing a half dozen medical doctor over the course of ten months, we were at a loss for what was causing my son's cough because there were no signs... read more of any underlying medical problem. Three of the doctors suggested it may be a "habit cough." After searching high and low, we found Christina at the San Diego Clinical Hypnotherapy. She admitted that although she had never treated a habit cough specifically, she had indeed helped other individuals with breaking bad habits. We decided to give it a try. We agreed to attend at least three sessions, but after the second session, attending the third was really just a formality. She helped with my son's habit cough, and we couldn't be more relieved. It worked for us, it may work for you. Christina is up front, honest, and willing to help. Give it a try!
11/18/2017Christina Higgins is a very knowledgeable and experienced hypnotherapist. I met with her for three sessions from December 2015 to February 2016. As a professional musician, I am always interested... read more in enhancing my level of performance, concentration, and relaxation (not only when I am performing, but also in general everyday living). I had tried a different hypnotherapist in town before Christina, and I felt Christina was much more skilled. I am a longtime student of meditation, and am familiar with many forms of "self-exploration" of one's own mind, including cognitive behavior therapy, NLP, and mindfulness meditation.
I would recommend her if you are interested in exploring hypnotherapy. She does, indeed, seem to know what she is doing, and has different modalities in her background from which she can choose, as they seem fitting for the individual client. Overall, I give her a "thumbs-up".
11/06/2017Christina is great. Super understanding and really knows how to get you connected with your subconscious and learned a lot just from 2 sessions. She really helped me understand what... read more I really want deep down and I feel more and more at peace. Highly recommended!
4/29/2017I have first seen Miss Higgens speak at a networking event and was very convinced that hypnotherapy was going to help me to relieve my anxiety. So I contacted her... read more for a free consultation which led to me hiring her as my hypnotherapist. After every session the progress was very noticeable and today I live a life almost completely free anxiety and when it does come up I know how to handle it and it's all thanks to miss Higgens. I have recommended her two all of my friends. Miss Higgins is the real deal not sign online Dollar Store therapist that really doesn't know what they're doing.
4/27/2017What I like about Christina is that she gets results. $150 is a lot to spend for something to "maybe" work- but with her.. in my experience, her hypnosis definitely... read more works. I had massive success from just one session with her. My confidence boosted, I obtained a new job that was in alignment with my life purpose and passion, opened my own personal practice and took leaps and bounds in my relationships. She's awesome, I suggest her to anyone wanting transformation!
4/19/2017Christine presented a very thorough explanation of the hypnotherapy process, putting me at ease to move forward. After our 1st session I recognized a notable change in how I felt.... read more Every session has yielded positive results each time and I've been able to make many positive changes in my life , moving past walls and fears.
3/13/2017I was beyond amazed. In one session I was able to achieve my goals and get the help i truly needed. It would have taken thousands of dollars and much... read more more time with other methods to get the same results. Christina is very easy to work with and takes the time to explain everything to you before hand. Amazing, Amazing, AMAZING!

My first session with Christina was incredible. She conducted a detailed evaluation as part of her consultation (which, btw, was FREE). The consultation included Christina thoroughly describing how the subconscious... read more brain functions, as well as what to expect from her processes. Her knowledge, confidence, and professionalism quickly puts you at ease and her methods really work.
I came out of the trance state feeling physically better than I can ever remember feeling. I sought out Christina to help me with anxiety and panic attacks. I felt a shift in the way I felt immediately after the session. My body felt light and pain-free and my mind felt clear and relaxed. It has been three days since the session and I feel so much better. I definitely need to attend more sessions with Christina, but I can honestly say that after one single hypnotherapy session, I have NO FEAR of having a panic attack. This is incredible and I can not wait until my next session with Christina. I have been looking forward to it since I left! I will post an update after my next session.
If you have a deeply rooted issue, phobia, or habit that you want to overcome I would HIGHLY recommend giving Christina a try. She's really good at what she does. Thanks Christina xx
7/17/2016I have been to hypnotherapist before but none like Christina. Since day one I felt welcome and an atmosphere of professionalism. I had a number of issues and all resolved... read more within three sessions. I am planning on going back for more sessions. But if you need issues resolved, Christina is your person
