Flow with the tides. Stay anchored like stone.
Alicia Laviano
Life moves in tides: transitions, emotions, and chapters that rise and fall. My work helps you find the steady place within, so you can move with life instead of bracing against it. I grew up chasing the ocean, watching the tides roll in and out against the rocks. The water was always changing but the stone held steady. That image has stayed with me my whole life, and it’s the heart of Tides & Stone.
For over fourteen yearsin human resources. I helped people navigate some of the biggest moments of their working lives: growth, transition, uncertainty, and change. Along the way, I became a certified coach and saw the same pattern again and again. So many of us move through life in a rush, disconnected from the quiet inner voice that already knows the way. I saw it in my clients, and I saw it in myself. That led me to hypnotherapy. I was drawn to how gently and deeply it works with the subconscious mind, where our habits, beliefs, and patterns live. When the conscious mind relaxes, real change becomes possible.
Today, I combine hypnotherapy and coaching to help women:
Calm anxiety and feel more at ease in their bodies
Release limiting beliefs and self-sabotage
Reconnect with their intuition and inner voice
Move through life transitions with clarity and confidence
My approach is warm, grounded, and personalized. Every session is shaped around you, your goals, and the season you’re in. Whatever you’re moving through, you don’t have to brace against it alone. You can flow with the tides and still be held.
