Experience Immersive HealingThe Signature Experience
For help bringing new possibilities into being.
Immersive Healing is Mari's customized fusion of hypnotherapy, therapeutic guided imagery, and Reiki. Each one-hour session works across multiple layers of experience, creating space for deep relaxation, inner listening, and intentional movement toward what matters to you.
Your intention might be
Releasing & letting go
Empowerment
Creating desired habits
Inner insight
Moving through fears
Transmutation
Deep relaxation
Chakra alignment
Self-actualization
Spiritual discernment
Experiential
Rather than only talking about your goals, you enter a relaxed and creative experience. Through guided imagery, focused attention, and Reiki, you engage with images, sensations, symbols, and inner responses that can reveal new pathways toward what you are seeking.
Integrative
Hypnosis, guided imagery, energy work, and responsive communication flow together as one cohesive journey rather than separate services. At the end of the session, we take time to process what emerged together and explore how it may connect with your intentions, insights, and next steps.
Meet Mari
Mari Minkel, C.Ht.
Certified Hypnotherapist & Reiki III Practitioner
For more than 17 years, Mari has helped people move beneath the noise of overthinking and listen for what becomes clearer in deep relaxation. Her approach is warm, curious, and grounded in respect for each person's own inner language.
Mari's background spans hypnotherapy, therapeutic guided imagery, Reiki, mindfulness, and clinical mental health. With Immersive Healing, she weaves those ways of understanding into a responsive experience centered on your own inner knowing. Images, sensations, memories, and symbols are welcomed as pathways to your own clarity, intuition, and deeper truth.
She is especially drawn to consciousness, creativity, spiritual discernment, and the ways people can meet change with greater wisdom. Mari is dedicated to creating enough safety and spaciousness for something true to emerge.

Frequently Asked
Before you enter.
What is Immersive Healing?
It is Mari's integrated combination of hypnotherapy, therapeutic guided imagery, and Reiki. Rather than receiving three separate services, you move through one personalized experience designed for relaxation, symbolic exploration, energetic wellness, and personal growth.
What does hypnosis feel like?
Hypnosis is a deeply relaxed, focused state. You remain able to communicate, make choices, and end the experience at any time, though the state may feel dreamlike or different from ordinary waking awareness.
What happens during an in-person session?
You will recline comfortably while Mari guides the experience. Sessions are mostly hands-off. Gentle touch may sometimes be used during the hypnotic induction to support the process, if you're comfortable with it.
How do online sessions work?
You will meet with Mari live from a quiet, private space where you can recline and remain uninterrupted. She guides the hypnosis and imagery in real time, then offers distance Reiki during the quieter portion of the session.
Do I need experience with hypnosis or Reiki?
No. Mari will guide you through the experience and answer questions before you begin.
Will Mari interpret the images or symbols I experience?
Mari may help you stay curious about what arises, but she does not impose a fixed meaning. The emphasis is on discovering your own associations, symbolic language, and inner understanding.
Is this psychotherapy?
No. Immersive Healing is a separate holistic service for relaxation, personal growth, energetic wellness, and spiritual exploration. It does not diagnose or treat mental-health or medical conditions and is not a substitute for licensed healthcare.
How are sessions scheduled?
Begin with a free email inquiry. You and Mari will clarify your goals, discuss the available packages, and arrange your first session. You can also book a brief 30-minute introductory virtual session for $35 USD. Package payment is made before the first session.
What is the cancellation policy?
Please give at least 24 hours' notice when rescheduling. Late cancellations and missed appointments may count as a used session, except in emergencies.
Who are sessions for?
