“This training transformed my life. Within two months of becoming certified, I had a therapist room and was seeing clients. I particularly love the quit smoking session, I'm always amazed at how well it works."
"I recently did my hypnotherapy certification with Leonie. It is a 4 day course packed with so much information and many effective techniques. She gave me all the tools to set up a business and get me in front of clients who need help with many issues they want to resolve, which include quitting smoking a losing weight. The course was well organised and Leonie did a great job of delivering the material in an easy to understand and relaxed way. Leonie’s extensive knowledge and expertise shone through during the course and I have come away with a definite direction of how I want to help my clients. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn hypnotherapy and wants to start a business."
"I did my certification with Nick at the Academy of Therapeutic Hypnosis WA and had a great experience. The training was clear, hands-on, and Nick made it easy to get my head around. I walked away qualified and confident enough to start my own practice. Couldn't receommend it more."
