From Overwhelmed and Self-Doubting to Grounded, Confident, and In Control.

When you want less noise and more trust in yourself, our support is here to help you feel steady again.

Hey, it's nice to meet you...

I'm Frode Skjolingstad

You might look confident and capable on the outside, yet feel pressure, self-doubt, or the sense that you have to keep proving yourself on the inside.

I’ve spent years working in high-pressure environments — first as a National Team athlete, then as a long-time coach — where performance and expectations are constant. What I learned is that real confidence doesn’t come from pushing harder. It comes from learning how to work with your mind and nervous system.

With a background in psychology and advanced training in hypnosis and NLP, I help professional women quiet the inner noise, loosen perfectionism, and feel steadier in who they are — at work and in life.

You don’t need to fix yourself.


You need support that helps you feel grounded, clear, and confident again.

How I Can Suport You

Find Your Best Way Forward

When your mind feels crowded and decisions feel heavy, we slow things down. Together, we reduce mental noise, create clarity, and help you move forward with steadiness instead of pressure.

Relationships Without the Self Doubt

If you replay conversations, second-guess yourself, or struggle to speak up, this work helps you communicate more clearly and confidently — without overanalyzing or self-doubt.

Confidence that Feels Like Relief

This isn’t about pushing yourself or becoming someone new. It’s about feeling grounded in who you already are, trusting yourself again, and showing up with confidence that feels calm and sustainable.

20+ Years of Experience Supporting People Under Pressure

You Don’t Have to Hold It All Together

You may be capable, driven, and outwardly successful — yet still feel pressure, self-doubt, or the sense that you’re constantly holding it all together. Many professional women experience this, even when everything appears “fine” on the surface.

My work is about creating a steady, supportive space where you can slow things down, quiet the inner noise, and reconnect with your own sense of clarity and trust. This isn’t about fixing yourself or pushing harder. It’s about understanding how pressure and perfectionism take hold — and learning how to work with your mind instead of against it.

Together, we focus on helping you feel more grounded, more confident, and more at ease — in your decisions, your work, and your life.

Happy Clients

I saw Frode to help with me with my weight. My goals were to lose weight, reduce my sugar cravings, and make healthy choices.

Frode welcomed me graciously. He is personable and good natured, and he’ll keep you laughing! Even though I felt hesitant (as it was my first-time trying hypnosis), Frode explained everything in such a way that I felt informed, calm, and relaxed.

After my session, I noticed a decrease in my sugar cravings. I’ve been able to maintain a healthier lifestyle. I believe Frode substantially helped me with my weight loss goals.

I would recommend anyone work with Frode to achieve all types of personal goals.

I attended Frode’s weight loss hypnosis seminar. I wanted to get healthier by eating less garbage and controlling my cravings. I really didn’t know what to expect.

Immediately, afterwards, though, I didn’t feel any different. But a few days after the seminar, I was picking up some things at the grocery store and I noticed I was talking myself out of getting junk food! And since the seminar, my cravings have vastly decreased and I find myself choosing healthy foods every time!

I recommend Frode’s hypnosis to anyone that is ready to change and has an open mind. Frode is super friendly with a great sense of humour. His voice was very calming and easy to listen to.

I’ve been playing hockey for 46 years. I love the sport and the competition. I’m a good skater, but a poor puck handler. The guys I play with know they can strip the puck off of me quite easily.

I decided to try one session of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) with Mr. Skjolingstad to improve my confidence in puck handling. I was surprised by the unexpected results!!

In my next, regular weekly hockey game, I had the confidence to make some moves!! I had a great time doing it and I enjoyed it. I was completely successful in dealing with my challenge, in my circle of confidence. That alone was well worth my time and money with Mr. Skjolingstad.

 

I am looking forward to exploring other benefits that this practice may bring to other parts of my life.
