“This Advanced Brain-based Hypnotherapy course gave me a new understanding of the brain and the ability the brain has to change. Learning how neuroplasticity that can be used in a practical way with clients. I’m empowered with new language to explain how the brain can transform and change by having new experiences, and multi-level brain conversations. Harnessing the power of intention and the power of connection was very enlightening.”

Luz Zondlo, LMHC, Destin, FL

Melanie Cassulo, LMHC, Fort Walton Beach, Florida

“I was very impressed with the fluidity of the transitions of clearing several traumas of problematic life areas from one type of intervention to another. The videos were excellent that show the efficacy of those interventions with the client’s own testimony of how he/she had been freed of the ‘emotional’ bondage that was connected to the brain’s data of the trauma/traumatic experience.”

Sophia Greiner, LCSW, CAP, ICADC, Brooksville, Florida
