Julia Irish is a clinical hypnotherapist specializing in trauma and addiction issues. Her years spent overseas working with the military in combat zones introduced her to combat-related trauma, both among military personnel and among local nationals in areas devastated by war. She has worked at a treatment program for trauma and addiction (The Life Healing Center) since 2011. Julia has made it her mission to gain an understanding of trauma and addiction and to develop cutting edge tools to assist people with trauma- and addiction-related disorders. Julia studied hypnotherapy and neurolinguistic programming at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America. She has also studied traditional methods of healing trauma in Peru, Europe and Africa. Julia completed her LADAC (alcohol and drug abuse counseling) qualifications in 2013 and is currently completing a Masters Degree in Professional Counseling at New Mexico Highlands University. Julia has maintained her own hypnotherapy practice, J. Irish Hypnotherapy, in Santa Fe, New Mexico since 2010.
