Liana West, M.Sc. | Founder of Accelerated OEI Therapy

I am a Certified OEI Therapist, certified in EMDR Flash, and a Certified Specialist in Trauma Recovery with the American Hypnosis Association.

I have a Master of Science from Cal state and have also studied Neuroscience at the Master’s level.

My ikigai (passion) is to make the world a better place.

For you.

Observed & Experiential Integration (OEI) Therapy

I’ve helped countless clients break free from the hold that their past has had on them so they can move forward and create a future they love. My unique approach combines:

  • Certified OEI Therapy | Observed & Experiential Integration trauma therapy
  • Certified in EMDR Flash | Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
  • Certified Specialist in Trauma Recovery | American Hypnosis Association
  • Trauma-informed & applied Neuroscience research for lasting transformation
  • A powerful integrative approach that unlocks Superconscious resources

You don’t need to let another day go by feeling triggered AF by your past or stuck in your current experiences.

The reason you feel hopeless is the past keeps hijacking your here and now and is taking up all the space in your future.

The past is actually the future you’re living into – no wonder it feels so hopeless.

I know how to integrate your past into the past, even if you’ve tried everything and nothing else has worked.

Even if you’ve been in therapy for years and it hasn’t quite hit the mark.

But here’s the thing.

Time does not heal ALL wounds.

Not with trauma.

You might need a bit of help from someone who knows how the brain works and has helped hundreds of clients put the past behind them where it belongs so you can get a fresh start.

A whole new future filled with whole new possibilities

Liana helped me with a problem I have been dealing with for over 15 years. In just one session, she has helped me completely change my perspective on this problem, allowing me to live life with much more choice and freedom. Thank you so much. Liana! - Kyle R. The best hypnotherapist in Vancouver.

insight into happiness, release decades of sadness
Liana was really great. She helped me learn ways to walk through things in my mind I wasn't able to overcome myself. She's very focused on helping move people forward versus just working through the past. She is so lovely. Made a lot of progress in just a month. Thank you so much Liana

Hi Liana, I want to tell you that the therapy session was truly amazing. It was one of the most powerful sessions I've ever had. I'll tell you why: When I came to you I was struggling with authenticity. It felt like a conflict inside me-one part of me was doing everything right but another part was sabotaging me and I was losing a lot of energy this way. After the session I needed a few days to integrate everything. Now I feel very authentic aligned with my mission much more powerful more confident and open to abundance. Clients have started reaching out to me and when someone doesn't want my service I'm completely at peace with their decision. Before the session I was wasting a lot of energy on phone addiction but now I use it only for my business and personal growth. I'm very grateful for everything that is changed. Thank you so much.

I'm extremely thankful for my session with Liana West. It came at a pivotal time in my life and making a career change. She helped me to make sense of the metal clutter and emotional blockages that was standing in the way of my inner light. Liana provided a safe, nurturing and fun experience to support me releasing things that no longer serve me. I highly recommend her services to help you in your life as well, because You deserve it. Ekua A.. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I had a powerful session with Liana, who masterfully guided me through hypnosis and covering each and every layer of my issue, the experience of hypnosis I had was gentle and reflective. I was deeply absorbed within myself, all the while in absolute control of my experience. Liana is a brilliant therapist, and I highly recommend her work and expertise. Thank you. - Virginie #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
My session with Liana was wonderful. She held space for me during our session, and I felt taken care of. She such a beautiful soul. During my session, I had a few 'aha' realizations of what the problem was and how it was keeping me stuck, and having the awareness really helped me a great deal. Liana was gentle kind and guided me exactly where I needed to go to see things clearly and helped shift my mindset in a positive way. I managed to take action that same day, and felt highly motivated to do so. Thank you so much. Truly appreciated. - Mehtab #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I booked in with Liana feeling like I needed to shift a few things so that I can move forward more easily. It was such a fun session. It's always a workout to do the deep work, and doing it with a creative unconscious mind is always surprising. Liana was lovely to work with. She guided me gently, expertly and patiently, exploring issues that needed to be addressed and only the way my mind, can address them bringing me to a state of stillness. Thank you, Liana. I'm looking forward to how this all comes together for me. -Michelle C. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I had been in a foggy and unfocus state for a few years. I was functioning at work, but other important aspects of my personal life were stalled. I had also been feeling anxious for a while. I know that I needed to change, but I couldn't get moving. The anxiety kept building. After my session with Liana, I was left with the lasting sense of calm and the beginnings of a plan to make changes. That first session was a catalyst to help me focus on change, put a plan in place and move forward. I felt motivated and energized me to get things done. Liana has a relaxing and calming nature that engenders trust. She was able to help me find a sense of calm and a new direction. The subconscious is a powerful thing. I have had a few follow up sessions with Liana to keep me on track and fine tune my strategic plan for life. She is very intuitive, with a real ability to access the power in the subconscious. Looking back, I think the answers were there below the surface. Liana helped me to access them. - Kevin A. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Liana is amazing, and has helped me immensely to move forward with my business and relationship. She has a beautiful, gentle approach that makes you feel safe and heard. I highly recommend Liana. Thanks again. - Di from Australia #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I definitely recommend a session with Liana. I felt safe and understood, and through our session, I was able to reconnect with myself and discover a newfound freedom. Thank you, Liana. - Ellen #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
#vancouversbesthypnotherapist
What I really enjoyed about working with Liana and having her take me through a hypnosis session is the fact that I thought that I was seeing her for one thing, but as we got into the conversation, I was having all these realizations about my childhood, why I was so stressed and felt so purposeless. It took me way deeper than I was expecting to go and made me realize why I'd made a ton of decisions that I had had in my life. Just for the aspect of understanding myself , it was incredibly helpful. Then she helped me release a deep knot of shame and confusion that I was holding in my chest for years, and I've been trying to figure out how to get rid of. I really appreciate what Liana is doing. It was absolutely 10 out of 10 session. If she can help you, half as well as she helped me, it would be worth every penny. - Jordan A
The session was amazing. I can feel it working already. I highly recommend to anybody that needs healing. - Paul T. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I felt very safe and comfortable with Liana. She is very patient and calm, which makes her still skill come across so naturally. My body pain that has stuck with me for the last five years immediately has started to loosen, crack and wither. As it turns out, I was carrying a lot of weight (burden) on my shoulders in life, which had manifested in a very painful and limiting way, physically. I now embody the freedom and energy to continue toward my ideal life without hindrance, pain, or restriction Thank you. Liana. - Marlo #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Thank you so much. Liana, for this session. As a therapist, I knew that I was not only in a safe environment with you, but the skills you possessed and utilized during our session exceeded my expectations. By the end of the session, I felt different, more clear, headed and excited about the positive changes to come. I'm so looking forward to them. - Vedrana #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I have such an empowering context right now, since yesterday's hypnosis session, I'm seeing my gaps in where I need to take action. Thank you so much. Liana. - Manoj V. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Hi, Liana, I'm feeling so good after our session yesterday, I have no desire to eat any crap food today. I took a lovely walk this morning and tuned into nature. Thank you so much for your time and care. The session was amazing. - B.
I wasn't sure if I could be hypnotized, but I felt blocked in a certain area of my life. I was able to go into hypnosis and found the answers I needed to remove my blocks. After the session, I felt like the problem was no longer problem and there was room to experience flow in that area! Amazing! - Dan #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I had no idea what to expect going into my session, and it was so much more than I anticipated. The epiphanies I had, the lift in spirit, thought, mood and overall well being were incredible. I felt revitalized and so much lighter. Liana is so professional and has a soothing nature about her. She really helps you get to the root of the issue and work through things in a safe and gentle way. - VT #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
infinite possibilities
My session with Liana was an eye opener. I felt comfortable and secure, and several aha moments popped up for me before the session. I had no confidence with men, but what I saw was that I never lost my confidence. I realized that the men I was in relationship with were not on the same frequency slash wave length as I was, therefore I did not have the same faith in our relationship. I also had a deep insight that tomorrow never comes. I was stuck in the past, but now I know it's all about being present in the now. I've been thinking in this way for decades, and got so many more ahas from this one session. Thank you, Liana, for your listening heart. - Satomi H. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
From confusion to clarity
Wow, Liana has such an amazing ability to utilize all different modalities into such a beautiful and profound therapeutic experience. Through her expertise in noticing the unconscious patterns during thoughtful conversation, she managed to hone in on areas in the body that were blocked and proceeded to follow the breadcrumbs that the unconscious was leaving for her. Her gentle and kind guidance to help release these blockages was exactly what I needed to help feel connected and integrated in the body and stop the overthinking and chaotic mind chatter. Her neuroscience background spoke to me and brought a level of keen interest to the style of therapy she has created. It is a very pragmatic, body oriented, integrated therapy style and I felt fantastic afterwards! I am already noticing shifts in my life and have no doubt that much more will continue to unfold in my life. Thanks, Liana – Louisa G.
Hi! Everything is changed. I ll tell you. It's amazing :)
OMG Liana! I’m amazed at how much better I feel! Before, I felt so wrapped up in what happened to me in the past that it controlled my present & future. Immediately after our session it was like I became aware of this clear & concise divide between the past & present. I can think about these past events that traumatized me & they now really do feel like any other memory. I was having constant intrusive thoughts before. I couldn’t go ten minutes without them popping up, but last night, I went 1.5 hours without any thoughts about my past experience at all. When I finally did have a thought regarding it, it was about our session & not the traumatic experience itself. I was in the best mood.
Hi Liana, It’s very late or early here… lol however you wanta look at it; but I wanted to text this to you before I forgot or got too busy. After our last session , I felt so much better. More open and expansive. I was glad to be out of that foggy feeling. There was more that needed to be worked through and having a session sped up the process/breakthrough. I kept working on it and I was able to forgive my ex. I forgave him for all the other betrayals as well and I felt incredible! the relief was amazing! I cannot tell you how much better I felt. I knew almost immediately that this was setting me free. I am moving forward with passion! That’s what was happening. I cannot thank you enough for the patience you showed me and the tenacity you had with me. Because of you this issue that I have been working on , on and off for 4 – 5 years has finally been resolved. I haven’t lost weight yet but the way I was carrying is gone! Thank you again, you’ve made it possible for me to get back to living.
I had a great session with Liana. She let the issue arise naturally and talked me through it. Her technique is amazing. Tt is so simple and quick but also incredibly powerful. I can barely remember what the problem was. If you have any kind of issue you need to resolve within yourself, do yourself a huge favor, don’t waste time just make an appointment with Liana. – Diane V.
I felt stuck and hopeless for a very long time. Liana’s process revealed the source of my blocks and enabled me to release them in my session. I feel like what I really want is possible for me now and I’m excited for the future. – Anick B.
In one session, Liana helped me let go of an issue which persisted for years despite all kinds of things I tried before. A fundamental shift of perspective in terms of how much free will I have available to me, a new level of trusting myself
Liana is very patient and supportive. She made me feel very comfortable. I came to her when I was going through a very difficult time with depression and isolation. And thankfully, she helped me get on my fee, get better and rebegin a new track record up. Thanks for your help, I’m very grateful. – Idriss Accelerated Hypnotherapy: The Best Hypnotherapist in Vancouver #besthypnotherapistvancouver
My experience with Liana was beyond words. She guided me to places I never knew I needed exploring and provided the safety and reassurance to truly let myself go there. As someone who often finds it hard to show vulnerability to others, Liana made it so easy. Regarding the problem I wanted to work through, Liana was so thorough, ensuring that every last part of the issue was resolved - and in such a loving way too, which was exactly the kind of support I needed. She intuitively knew where to guide me in each moment, which made the entire process as effective as it was! I feel so much lighter, more accepting, and with greater clarity. Thank you again, Liana... you were clearly born to do this work. I am so ready to take action, and excited to see where life can take me now! - Sussan R. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Great session! I felt deeply relaxed and fully present throughout the experience.. It was as if a weight I didn't realize I was carrying had been gently lifted. What's even more remarkable is that this sense of calm and clarity has stayed with me long after the session ended I feel more grounded, focused, and in tune with myself. It was truly transformative and I'm looking forward to the lasting benefits. Deron S. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
oei therapy trauma recovery
As a hypnotherapist myself, it can be hard to separate client from therapist and relax enough to be able to have a successful session. Liana immediately and seamlessly steered me into a chronic into a wonderful session for chronic neck pain that I've had for 27 years. Through her expertise, I was able to clear some emotional junk from years ago that I didn't realize I was still hanging on to and help me clear my mind. I have rapid fire thoughts on a regular basis, and a very high hard time relaxing, which does not help my neck pain at all. After my session, I can sit and relax and have clear thoughts for me. Be the first and have clear thoughts for the first time maybe ever. - Cheney N. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I definitely recommend a session with Liana. I felt safe and understood, and through our session, I was able to reconnect with myself and discover a newfound freedom. Thank you, Liana. - Ellen #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
technique is amazing, issue to resolve within self
Today's session with Lina came at the most synchronistic time. She helped me connect with so many aspects of my problem in a way that makes going forward feel tangible and successful. She provides the most supportive care through hypnosis, and has an amazing ability to navigate the session with her gentle voice and method. Thank you, Liana. I'm looking forward to all of the processing and integration of shifts in mindset that are to come much gratitude. - Regina R. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Thank you so much. That was an awesome session. ^_^ - G. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Helloooo, beautiful soul. Leanna, thank you so much for our meeting and your gentle guidance that helped me reach a place of deeper understanding as to how I'm blocking myself and not only put up limitations, but reinforce them. It's taken off all the pressure I can be in my own time and march to my own drum beat, and it's all okay. That's a game changer and quite a marvelous shift. Although it sounds little, everything changes. I know that sounds a bit wishy washy, but it's huge. How does that work? Some simple questions, and it's like my mind unlocks all this inner wisdom and a path emerges where before it was confusing, muddy and distressing. Thank you, Liana. You are amazing. - Donnie H. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist

Hi Liana, I wanted to tell you that after our session I felt amazing, a lot of processing though it’s like my mind is trying out different solutions for me, aha moments. It’s fantastic how one session can change so much in my mind. You are incredible at what you do and you make such a difference in people’s lives. You are the best! Thank you 🙏🙏❤️
Thank you so much. Liana, for this session. As a therapist, I knew that I was not only in a safe environment with you, but the skills you possessed and utilized during our session exceeded my expectations. By the end of the session, I felt different, more clear, headed and excited about the positive changes to come. I'm so looking forward to them. - Vedrana #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Today I had my session, second session with Liana. I had seen her a year ago, and felt so supported by her in a way I'd never experienced before. So when the opportunity to see her again came up, I jumped at it eagerly. I was blown away, blown away by what she helped me uncover. I cried, we laughed, and it was nothing short of transformative. I feel so much relief and lightness in my body now. I am so excited to continue to watch myself unfold in positive and joyful ways. Thank you Liana - Valerie S. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
The whole year of 2024 I got into a situation that left me feeling confused, upset and unsure of what to make of everything. Liana was able to hold space for me and allow me to just pour everything out. She was great at helping me organize my thoughts and come to terms with everything that had happened. I was concerned at first if I would be judged, but Liana came from a genuinely compassionate place that allowed me to fully relax and let go. I can say that from here on out, I can move forward with my life. Thank you again, Liana for being so professional yet so kind and genuine. This was deeply helpful, and I am truly grateful. - Kyle S. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I'm so grateful to have met Liana. I knew very little about hypnosis before encountering her, after watching her video, videos explaining how the process works and chatting with her about it we scheduled the session. The session felt like being guided by a wise friend into a place of infinite possibilities and confidence that I didn't know I had inside. Liana gently guided me. Her voice was soothing, and she spoke in such a friendly way, I felt safe and at ease throughout the session, I have no other words, except for Thank you. :) - Juliana #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
Liana helped me to see where I was stuck and my thinking and feeling, and she guided me to make the changes I need to make to feel better. At first, I wasn't sure, because it felt like what we were doing it did, didn't make sense. But since then, I've realized actually that's because my subconscious mind was doing something even though consciously I didn't understand. She was very patient and guided me throughout. - Lucas W. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
I was having a problem with procrastination. I didn't feel motivated. I was avoiding and afraid of what was coming in my hypnosis session, I uncovered my confidence that was buried and realized that I have the skills I can just get over the fear and enjoy the process. By the end of the session, I knew what to do. - Sanny N. #vancouversbesthypnotherapist
