Client Reviews
First, let me say that I was very skeptical….. I called multiple companies before deciding to go with Kat. She's so kind and nurturing and actually listened to what my needs were (which a few others tried to manipulate into what I can only guess was their “go-to” script).
I'm three weeks in and have seen a DRASTIC change! Things I couldn't bring myself to do a month ago, I do without hesitation now!
I am so grateful for the help and tools to add to my toolbox (as my old selling coach used to say)
Thank you! 🙏🏻

Working with Kat was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was cautiously optimistic when we first began our work together and I was not confident hypnotherapy would bring the results for which I hoped. I was pleasantly surprised and deeply moved by our work together. Kat has a gift. Because she is patient, kind, skilled and intentional, I always felt welcome, safe, and fully seen by her in our sessions. She helped me discover my true self, my true needs, and provided me ongoing skills to help me both heal and continue my work being my best self.

Kat and I worked together on quitting smoking/vaping, something I have battled with various levels of "temporary success" all of my adult life. In the past I have always felt like a smoker who wasn't currently smoking. Even when I stopped for 5 years I continued to identify this way - still a smoker, just not smoking. After 2 sessions with Kat I completely, confidently, and comfortably identify myself as a NONSMOKER! It is astounding and life altering. If you sincerely want to make a fundamental life change and have been struggling to do so, bring that sincerity and an open mind/heart to working with Kat...and then celebrate the changes and growth that come with relative ease...
Kat does her work with skill, sensitivity, kindness, positivity, and frankness. It has been a joy to work with her.

Kat was my amazing guide through my very first past life regression. From set-up through post-processing, Kat was fully engaged and cared about my experience the whole way through. Her compassionate, non-judgmental presence allowed for a deep, transformative experience. Her guidance through the regression, allowed for me to tap into a powerfully emotional and life clarifying memory. Thank you, Kat! What a gift <3

Kat is highly skilled, deeply intuitive and so beautifully attuned in (and out of!) hypnosis sessions. I did 4 sessions with Kat and the work we did together was so valuable and so incredibly helpful to me in healing core wounds that simply cannot be readily accessed in a conscious state bc they’re held in the subconscious. Kat helped me to find the places inside of me to help me rewrite my script and truly to rewire my brain and the thoughts I tell myself about who I am. I highly recommend Kat and Your Life Depot for anyone wanting to heal your mind, body, heart. Thank you for answering the call to do this profound work, Kat. You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be and I’m so grateful for you 🙏🏽💗

I was fortunate to be connected with Kat after a particularly powerful meditation experience. Her expertise was evident from our first conversation. The past life regression session was exactly what I needed. Kat's skill in guiding me through the process was remarkable. She helped me identify and understand a significant obstacle, providing me with valuable insights. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking hypnotherapy.

Kat has a gift for connection. Her genuine enthusiasm for her work is contagious, and our sessions leave me refreshed and energized with a different perspective. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

I had a fantastic experience working with Kat. After the first two sessions of hypnosis, I felt deeply changed: lighter and more confident without the emotional baggage associated with old memories. She clearly explained the process and provided support and guidance every step of the way. The whole experience was very powerful and effective. So grateful I found her!

My experience with Kat was life changing. She understood my goals right away and worked with me to create the best plan to achieve the changes I wanted. Hypnosis is such an amazing thing and Kat helped me in so many ways through this. Her life coaching sessions were impactful as well and I couldn’t have imagined the positive outcome that came from them. Highly recommend Kat, at Your Life Depot, if you’re ready to make a change big or small! Thank you for everything Kat!

Kat is amazing! She personalizes the hypnosis to your life, personality and issue. After 5 sessions my subconscious has completely changed! I reached out to her when I was starting my sober journey! I am currently on day 65+, that is the longest I have got without a drink in 15 years!!!! If you have a goal that you want to achieve, take the discovery call with Kat, she will impress you with her approach and kind heart! Thank you Kat! You changed my life!

I cannot speak more highly of my time working with Kat. She helped give clarity during a stressful, uncertain period. As someone who has gone through years of cognitive behavioral therapy, I believe Kat has helped me practice mantras, self-monitor, and problem solve more effectively than any therapist I have ever worked with. Her warm demeanor makes her easy to work with and creates a relaxing space during hypnosis sessions.

Kat is absolutely amazing! All my life I have struggled with anxiety, ruminating thoughts, standing up for myself, and constantly felt unworthy of love. After completing all five hypnosis sessions with Kat, I feel like a completely new person. I am more confident, emotionally lighter, able to stand my ground, and finally feeling worthy of love. I highly recommend Kat's services to anyone! Thank you again for everything 🙂

I attended one of Kat's group hypnosis sessions, and it was such a cool experience! She has a welcoming and calming presence, so even though this was my first time trying hypnosis, I felt safe and well supported. She guided our group through a session focused on letting go of anxiety and ruminating thoughts, and by the end of it I felt the most relaxed I think I've ever been! I've wanted to try hypnosis for a while, and this group session was such an accessible and helpful way to explore. If you're curious about hypnosis, I highly recommend working with Kat!
