Credentials & Certifications

For some people, what matters is history. For them; My first training in hypnosis was from the Western Washington University psychology department during my college years. Ever since then, I have used hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming in everything I have done.

Other people like certificates, diplomas, and licenses. For that group, my formal education consists of more than 300 hours of instruction and 200+ hours of supervised time with clients before I ever saw a client on my own. I have hundreds of more hours with clients in my private practice since then and more than 200 hours invested in advanced certifications.

I value ongoing education in my field, so I stay current with developments in human behavior research, psychology, hypnosis and more. I also like to expand my skills, so at any given time I am likely to be taking classes toward my next certification, and that 200+ hours logged so far in continuing education certifications continues to grow.

My practice is about clinical/medical hypnosis and behavioral therapy. No “past lives”, no chakras, no auras, no crystals.
