We've been particularly busy this year. The expanded 2nd Edition of Become the Dream was published this spring. Marleen has been doing in-person and phone sessions with many graduates for personal growth and development of practice. Randal has been especially active the past several months to protect hypnotherapy (and other) schools in California from inappropriate, excessive legislation.

              

Of course, continuing education has its own intrinsic value. In addition, 30 hours are required every two years for A.C.H.E. Recertification. All of our classes also give credit towards Certification Upgrade, e.g., from Hypnotherapist to Clinical Hypnotherapist. We are also approved by various state agencies, including for CEUs by the Board of Behavioral Sciences and the Board of Registered Nursing.

HTI graduates are welcome to arrange to join a new level, or come for a package of 30 hours from any previously taken class level to fulfill CEU requirements. which can be accomplished through any 3 full class days, at 10 CEUs per day. When taking less than a full level of class, the deposit is $65/day, which is credited toward tuition of $195/day. Please call or email for further information, including to get dates of specific subjects you are interested in attending.

Our Summer weekend program begins June 25 and our accelerated program begins August 6. Although many of our graduates have found further value in returning to earlier levels of class, a higher percentage take the advanced classes of Level Three and above, so we are emphasizing these classes below. See our Class Schedule page for exact dates of the earlier class levels.

Tuition for each Level 1-7 course is $950. Each level includes 50 hours of instruction. Classes meet 9:30 am-6:00 pm, with lunch hour starting at 1:00 pm or 1:15 pm, at the Corte Madera Inn.

Send your deposit of $300 per level (credited toward the tuition) well in advance to guarantee your place in any of our classes.

We offer accelerated and weekend versions of 50-hour Level 5 and Level 6 classes, exclusively for HTI graduates. Either class can be taken as a means of receiving CEUs. As with our other levels, tuition is $950.

This exciting advanced course for HTI grads is even more experiential than our Level 3 and 4. There are fewer lectures and plenty of the transformational live hypnotherapy demonstrations that we're known throughout the world for, along with follow-up discussions, unique group hypnosis processes, and various practice sessions.

Randal will be your instructor for at least half of the course. Cheryl Canfield will teach several portions, including using her expertise as a wellness counselor for a section on health issues. Lyn 'Unihipili Hilliard teaches hypnotherapy skills for working with grief. We are also pleased to have psychologist/hypnotherapist Terry Stout sharing his rare expertise on the Inka Medicine Wheel and its philosophy and relevance to hypnotherapy.

Demonstration and practice themes include further explorations of regression and hypno-healing. We will provide a rare film of Gestalt founder Fritz Perls demonstrating powerful brief therapy methods, along with practicing a new Gestalt process. There will be a time to brainstorm about your clients, and a marketing strategies discussion.

If this is your 5th level with our school, a Regression Hypnotherapy diploma with the title Regression Specialist is awarded for completion of this course. If it is your 6th level, a Clinical Hypnotherapy diploma is awarded, and you will be eligible for A.C.H.E. Clinical Hypnotherapist Certification. Also, as always, CEUs apply for hypnotherapists, nurses, marriage and family therapists and social workers.

This course leads to further mastery of the field and Clinical level Certification. It continues an emphasis on our signature comprehensive integrations of uncovering and transformational methods. Some demonstrations delve deeper into dreamwork, regression and advanced ideomotor methods.

Besides the live demonstrations, we will present rare footage of a few powerful sessions from our archives. In one, we will study the delicate methods of a filmed session in which Randal uses ideomotor methods to identify and eliminate a false memory. We also show a historic film of William Kroger using hypnoanesthesia for thyroidectomy surgery, and further explore healing and pain relief methods.

Time is reserved in this class for you to brainstorm about a challenging client, and for a class member hypnotherapy demonstration and critique. Your skills are further honed by the advanced practice sessions designed for this level.
