From Burnout to Breakthrough
You Are Holding It Together. But at What Cost?
High-performing women are masters of appearing fine. But inside, a different story is playing out. If any of these feel familiar, you are in the right place.
The Method
A 12-Week Journey. Four Phases. One Transformation.
This is not a support group. It is not a productivity course. It is a transformational group program where you learn to regulate your nervous system, release unhealthy patterns, and build a life that does not require escaping.
12 Weeks · Rolling Enrollment · Virtual via ZoomPhase One
Recognize
Understand what stress actually is, how it lives in your body, and why you have turned to alcohol as a solution. Learn the basics of self-hypnosis and begin reconnecting with your nervous system's natural wisdom.
Phase Two
Release
Identify your unique stress triggers and the deeper emotions beneath your drinking patterns. Using self-hypnosis and guided journaling, begin releasing the grip that stress and alcohol have on you.
Phase Three
Reclaim
Master advanced stress management techniques. Build emotional intelligence. Reclaim your time, your energy, and your authentic self. Learn to lead from presence rather than panic.
Phase Four
Sustain
Build the support systems, long-term practices, and resilience needed to maintain your breakthrough. Create a self-hypnosis practice that becomes as natural as brushing your teeth.
Your Guides
Two Clinicians. One Shared Mission.
Program Director
Dr. Robert B. Jaffe
PhD · LMFT #MFC30916 · Ericksonian Hypnotherapist · MDRT Pioneer
For over 40 years, Dr. Jaffe has helped high-achieving individuals and couples heal from the inside out. He developed the Multi-Dimensional Relational Therapy (MDRT) framework, which integrates clinical hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, psychoanalytic depth work, and relational attunement. His approach reaches both the conscious and unconscious levels of change, producing results that willpower alone cannot achieve.
Co-Facilitator
Dr. Mitra Rashidian
PhD · LMFT #LMFT84702 · AASECT Certified Sex Therapist · Diplomate ABS
Dr. Rashidian brings 25 years of clinical expertise in women's wellbeing, relationships, and sexual health. She holds a PhD in Counseling from the University of New England (Australia), is a Clinical Professor at Loma Linda University, and is a Certified Ericksonian Hypnotherapist. Her work centres on helping women reconnect with their authentic selves, reclaim emotional safety, and build relationships rooted in genuine intimacy rather than performance.
The Root Cause
The Stress-Alcohol Cycle You Are Caught In
High-achieving women face a unique paradox: the more successful you become, the higher the expectations, both external and internal. When stress increases, many turn to alcohol as a way to regulate emotions and find temporary relief. But alcohol only masks the underlying stress. It never resolves it.
Over time, this becomes your default coping mechanism. Not because you are struggling with willpower, but because your nervous system has learned this pattern. Breaking it requires more than motivation. It requires tools, community, and support.
"The goal is not to white-knuckle your way through. It is to rewire the system so the craving loses its grip entirely."
This program addresses the nervous system directly, using clinical hypnotherapy, somatic tools, and guided group work to create change at the level where the pattern actually lives.
