For eighteen years, Intentional Hypnosis has offered clinical hypnotherapy and personal coaching in Spokane. The work is about changing the patterns that no longer serve you — through clear intention, and through hypnosis to build a new personal story that supports the change.
My premise is simple: we always choose convenience. So the work is not more willpower. It is learning to make the productive path also the easier path.
​



How It Works

Step 1 — Book a Free Consultation
Schedule a free conversation so we can explore how you can allow more freedom, joy, and meaning into every area of your life. No commitment required.
Step 2 — Create Your Personal Program
Together, we design an Intentional Outcome — a clear picture of what you want and what has been in the way. Then we build a program of hypnosis and coaching sessions to move you toward it.​
Step 3 — Integrate Into Your Life​
The real value of the work is not in the sessions themselves. It is in what you carry with you into your relationships, your work, your body, and your daily rhythm.

​What I Offer

​Four ways to work with me. Full details on the Program Pricing page.

First Personal Session — $275 · 2 hours Your entry point. Whether you continue with a program or use this session on its own, you leave with new tools and a digitally recorded hypnosis session in support of your Outcome Frame.

The 3-Month Program — $975 · 7 sessions over 3 months Three hypnosis sessions and three coaching sessions, spaced approximately two weeks apart, so the work has time to root. Where lasting change actually happens.

Here's What Clients Are Saying

Heart and Trust

​The work I did here opened up my heart and trust in a way that I didn't know I could use and is still opening even months after I completed the first program. I had an awakening into my wounding of unworthiness and trust a couple weeks ago, that I didn't know I could heal while still working a lot. I will definitely be coming back for more work soon. If you are stuck and have tried many avenues for healing, I recommend giving this man a try.
​Will M.

Phobias

A superb experience. With James’s guidance and wisdom, I was able to conquer a phobia that has been holding me back from living life fully. I would highly recommend his services.
Marie F.

Anxiety and Focus

​After just a few sessions, I noticed a dramatic reduction in my anxiety and an improved ability to focus. If you listen to your personalized hypnosis sessions and put in the work, you will see results. James creates a calm and very supportive environment. He is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects and gives great advice. If you’re considering it, don’t hesitate. It’s one of the best decisions I’ve made for my mental well-being.

​About James

Picture

​​
​James T. Barfoot is a clinical hypnotherapist in Spokane, Washington — certified by the American Council of Hypnotist Examiners (ACHE) and a Professional Member of the National Qigong Association. He mentored under Bart Anderson ("Ten Bears") for more than twenty years in the shamanic tradition, has nearly forty years of Tai Chi and Qigong practice, and eighteen years of clinical work with individuals and groups. He is the author of Tribalize Now — The Practice of Belonging (2014).

​The Larger Practice

Session after session, year after year, I began to see that behavior change was rarely the whole story. Underneath every habit was a bigger question: whose life am I actually living? That question is at the center of the framework I have been developing — Our Belonging Signature™. Hypnosis, far from being left behind in this evolution, is being given a bigger job: to help align the deeper parts of ourselves with the lives we are here to create. The framework begins with four archetypes — the Seeker, the Warrior, the Architect, the Creator. These are not four different kinds of people. They are four voices always present in each of us, each carrying a different capacity. The Seeker keeps us curious. The Warrior keeps us safe. The Architect keeps us building. The Creator keeps us offering what only each of us can offer. When any of these voices has gone quiet, our whole life suffers. The Snapshot is a five-minute mirror that shows you which archetype is loudest in you today — and which have gone quiet. That is where the work begins.
Meet each of the four. See which one meets you back.

If one of them speaks to you, the Snapshot shows how that archetype is standing across the five Domains of your life — Inner Life, Vitality, Work, Relationships, Wealth. Five minutes. No login. Yours to keep.
