FAQs About the Hypnotherapy Training at North Shore Hypnosis

Q:  What will my certification enable me to do?

After your Level II training is completed, you become an NGH Certified Hypnotherapist.  Hypnotherapy is a certified, not a licensed profession. You are entitled to practice and earn your living, if you wish, as a Certified Hypnotherapist.  You become internationally certified by the National Guild of Hypnotists.

Q: What kind of organization is the National Guild of Hypnotists?

A:  The NGH is the largest and most prestigious worldwide hypnosis certifying organization. It has regular educational conferences in New Hampshire with over 1500 participants. There are also NGH sponsored legal advocates who participate in legislatures all over the country representing the Guild’s members. The Guild is highly supportive, having a lending library of videos and audio tapes, referrals, legislative support, regular local meetings, and much more. You can also obtain liability insurance through The Guild.

Q: Why should I choose your school?

A:  The North Shore Hypnosis curriculum is based in time honored hypnotherapy techniques. We also teach the latest in the energy therapy techniques. Combined with hypnotherapy, they produce near miraculous results. 

Class size will never exceed ten students, so you get a great deal of individual attention, and the training provides you with the opportunity to do your own healing in the class, as well.

When you complete the program, you'll have the tools you need to work with most of the challenges presented to hypnotherapists. You will also  have the opportunity to gain more expertise and obtain your CEUs by attending advanced classes offered throughout the year.

Classes held within the offices of North Shore Hypnosis provide a model of a clean, quiet, aesthetic and inspirational environment in which to learn and fashion your own office after, if you choose. 

Many students are amazed that they not only learn to help others, but their own lives improve profoundly in the process by practicing the techniques they learn in their own lives.  Small groups encourage the creation of a bonded community within your class, and this provides support for you.

Q:  How do your graduates feel about their training?

A:  Here a some testimonials received in email: 
 

Date: 3/6/2004 12:16:31 PM Eastern Standard Time 

Just want to thank you for the opportunity to be at SUNY Farmingdale this 
week (and next Wednesday).  It certainly did alot to allay my anxieties
and boost my self confidence.  The experience this week was exhilarating 
to say the least!  I worked with some really great people.  It was so gratifying 
to see highly tensed, stressed people just melt into a deep, relaxed trance 
state as I spoke.  It feels so good to know that I was able to help them feel better. 
I have found my niche and I am so happy!  Thanks again!  - GL

Subject: Fw: a good story 
 

Hi Carol!
A friend sent me this story.  I had to send it on to you, because, everytime you give a class if someone in that class needs help, guidance, healing, reasurance.......  whatever........ you always, without fail, slow down and if need be change course and most definately every day of your life in one way or another you help people to win......  inspite of themselves.
 I came to you searching for a new begining, another chapter in my life. You opened the door, helped me take the first steps thro' it, stood me up on my feet when I nearly crumpled into a heap, taught me how to help and heal myself so I can one day be useful and help others.  Every class I attended, I learned so much 'extra curricular' life lessons because of the way you addressed every situation that arose with such forthright honesty, dignity, humour and wisdom. Thank you for sharing all of your gifts, all your courage and experience, and for being so unconditionally generous in every way.  I am so truly blessed to have you as my friend, teacher and mentor.  Without doubt you are the finest teacher I have ever had in my life.

Dear Carol,

I never thought it would take me this long to write to you and tell you
about our move to Finland, and above all, to thank you for the wonderful
training in hypnotherapy that you gave me.

Hi Carol,

Thank you for a well prepared, stimulating, fascinating class.  You can
really "mesmerize" your audience.  I learned so much and the class opened a
whole new perspective into the healing arts.

I will do the homework and submit it.  I'm looking forward to Part 2 and
wish it could be with our great group.  My gratitude to you for a wonderful learning experience.

Carol:

I thank you so much for these supporting words. It means so much to me that you can see the progress, which I may miss being too close in the works. Thank you. I do push to see some success very soon. It means so much to me that you trust me enough to allow me to speak in front of your audience and even think it was a success! The hypnotists world, and the world in general, needs more teachers like you! Understanding, generous and kind. Being knowledgeable and kind, You are allowing for the student's abilities to arise and creativity to come out, unfold and flow freely, supporting in all efforts and endeavors to expand and learn and progress in the business. (YOU CAN PUT this ON YOUR TESTIMONIALS PAGE.) I believe that my business will come once I set my records straight. and Thanks for the Reiki!

Love and Light

Fall of 2001:

Dear Carol, 

Yes, I arrived home safely.  I made it to the airport in lots of time and there were no problems at all.  There was a noticeable increase in security which was reassuring.  The homework is going along fine and haven't encountered any difficulties yet.  I'll let you know if I do though.  I was VERY pleased with the first half of training and am looking forward to coming back for the second part.  I can't believe that it will be less than a week now before I'm back there again. 
See you soon, take care.

Dear Carol
I am just return back from Torino. I went again in Torino to
see my friend Laura and to help her in her inner struggle.
She is really better. She said that the Hypnosis tapes that I did for her
was very useful.
This time we finally discovered the reason and we start to work on that together. I feel me more strong secure and motivated in my life and in my healing practice.
The Hypnosis session that you gave me were miraculous for me. My life really start to change in many way. Same time I still feel the fear to fail but now I now how to deal with it.

Letizia S. (Rome, Italy)

---------

Dear Carol:

Wow!! A million thanks to you and your wonderful way of teaching. Since I took your certification class, I have established a flourishing hypnotherapy business. I do feel that if I went anywhere else I wouldn't be as knowledgeable and confident as I am now. Thanks to you and your attention to detail, I gained so much insight. You made me feel very comfortable and secure when I met you for the first time. It is always a little intimidating when you go to a classroom for the first time, not knowing what to expect. As soon as I walked through the door, I knew I was in the right learning environment. Your cozy atmosphere, the warmth you radiated made my learning experience something that I will never forget. Your teaching and your sound advice gave me confidence that I didn't  dream I'd have.

Many thanks to you and God Bless   - D 

(Basic Hypnotherapy Training, Jan, 2001)

......"Thank you so much for such a wonderful class. I am truly appreciative of all you bring to the center and look forward to years of working together."......

Thanks.  Christine
