Joel Thielke - Founder & Creator of DriftMind

👤 Joel Thielke - Founder & Creator

Joel Thielke is a board-certified hypnotherapist and the visionary behind DriftMind. His journey into understanding the human mind began in 1997 when he pursued acting to explore the motivations and drives of different characters. This fascination naturally evolved into the realm of hypnosis, where he discovered the power to directly engage with the subconscious mind to influence behavior and thought patterns.

In 2005, Joel had the opportunity to train under a renowned hypnotist in Southern California. Captivated by the transformative power of hypnosis, he underwent rigorous training to become a board-certified hypnotherapist. By 2007, Joel established his own practice in Beverly Hills, working with a diverse clientele including actors, directors, producers, and professional athletes.

🚀 Pioneering Digital Hypnotherapy

Joel and his team have been at the forefront of digital wellness since the early days of mobile apps. In 2009, Joel was among the first to launch a hypnotherapy app on the Apple iTunes Store, making his programs accessible to a global audience. This pioneering move helped establish hypnotherapy and meditation as mainstream wellness tools.

The team's extensive library of hypnosis and meditation programs gained further recognition in 2014 when Audible.com licensed a portion of their work to be sold as hypnosis audiobooks, expanding their reach to millions of listeners worldwide.

Over the years, Joel and his team have created many popular apps that have helped countless individuals overcome challenges such as anxiety, weight management, self-esteem issues, phobias, insomnia, and more. Their commitment to innovation and quality has made them trusted leaders in the digital wellness space.
