My hypnotherapy and regression certification training hours are recognized by the major professional hypnosis organizations, IACT and IMDHA. For licensed clinical professionals such as LPCs who need Continuing Education Units, the answer depends on your state licensing board's criteria. Each board sets its own rules about which hours it accepts, so I suggest checking with yours beforehand to see whether IACT approved courses qualify. I am happy to provide a syllabus and a breakdown of total hours to support your application. If you are weighing the training for professional development, bring your board's requirements to the discovery call and we can look at the fit together.

Yes, you can set a clear intention before we go into hypnosis to visit a specific period, culture or civilization, whether that is ancient Rome, Egypt or a Mayan lifetime. I will say that your soul, or Higher Self, ultimately chooses the past life that holds the most important lesson for your growth right now, and that may or may not match what your logical mind is curious about. Even so, a strong intention set during our pre talk acts like a compass. In my experience it often guides your subconscious straight to the lifetime you have been drawn to. So bring the request. We will state it clearly and then let your Higher Self lead.

Yes. A regression session is about more than clearing old trauma. In my experience it is also a good way to bring forward positive talents and gifts. If you played the piano, painted, wrote or did energy healing in a past life, that knowledge is still held in your soul. When we access that lifetime in trance, I can give your subconscious the suggestion to integrate those old abilities into who you are now. Clients often tell me that afterward learning comes more easily and the talent feels familiar rather than new, which can make a real difference in your career or your creative hobbies. If you have always felt you had a gift you could not explain, that is a good thing to bring to your session.

No, I do not read from a script. There is a term, Scripnosis, for a hypnotherapist reading a generic pre written script word for word to a client. I avoid that approach because a canned script cannot respond to your unique personal issues and what your subconscious needs in the moment. My sessions are interactive and client centered. I listen closely to your words while you are in trance and create custom suggestions in real time based on what you say. That is also how I teach my students to work. The result is a session tailored to you, shaped by your own language and your own experience rather than a page of text written for someone else.

This is one of the most powerful questions I have added to my list of commonly asked questions, and the answers rarely focus on material success, wealth or professional status. When clients pose it to their Higher Self or guides during the question and answer segment, the guidance typically directs them to look back from the end of their physical lifetime and evaluate their soul level progress. Seen from there, the most significant achievements are typically revealed to be your spiritual growth, learning to practice unconditional self love and the deep, loving connections you shared with others. Clients tell me this answer reorganizes their priorities more than almost anything else that comes up in a session.

Connecting with your Higher Self is one of the most natural parts of a session, and it typically happens in your first one. To prepare, you write a list of the personal questions that matter most to you. Once you are in a deep hypnotic state, the Theta brainwave frequency, your logical, analytical thoughts step aside. Then I speak directly to your Higher Self and ask it to answer through your voice, or to deliver sudden, clear knowings. Clients often say something like "this just popped in my head," and that is exactly it. What you end up with is an open line of communication and clear spiritual guidance on the questions you brought.
