Cynthia St. Pierre is the Founder of Emotion Release Therapy® and the Emotion Release Institute®, as well as a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist.

​

After a successful 40-year career as a hairdresser, salon owner, and educator, Cynthia was called onto a new path of healing. Over the past six years, she has dedicated her life to developing two distinct modalities that help people heal at the root of emotional suffering.

​

Emotion Release Therapy®

​

Emotion Release Therapy® (ERT) is a mind-based modality facilitated personally by Cynthia.

​Using her training in Clinical Hypnotherapy, Cynthia guides clients into the subconscious mind to identify and resolve the underlying emotional patterns contributing to their present challenges. Every session is personally facilitated by Cynthia, allowing her to work directly with each client’s subconscious process.

​

Emotion Release Institute®

​

The Emotion Release Institute® (ERI) teaches a body-based modality through the Emotion Release® Method.

Unlike Emotion Release Therapy®, ERI practitioners do not work through the subconscious mind. Instead, they guide clients through their own body’s natural process of awareness, emotional discharge, nervous system regulation, and stabilization.

The client leads the process through their own body, while the practitioner provides structure and guidance.

Although both modalities share the same mission—to help people heal at the root—they take two very different pathways:

​

Emotion Release Therapy® — Healing through the subconscious mind.

​

Emotion Release Institute® — Healing through the body.
