Hypnotherapy methodology has two major categories—suggestion therapy and uncovering methods. ALL STYLES (i.e. Ericksonian, Alchemical, etc.) of hypnotherapy breakdown to be a form of one, or a combination of both.

Suggestion therapy is basically, saturating the mind with the right thinking to bring about behavior modification, i.e. stop smoking. Uncovering methods are for the discovering and healing of the subconscious "cause" of the problem. While this is a simplification, there are dozens and dozens of methods for accomplishing either category. And you simply won't be prepared to help people address all problems by attending a basic, brief and superficial training program that does NOT provide you with comprehensive instruction in both categories. (Any course less than 250 classroom hours of instruction just can't give you enough time to develop superior skills.)

Tim Simmerman's training program at the Hypnotherapy Academy of America, is considered an "advanced level course" from beginning to end. Yet, previous training in hypnotherapy or college credits is NOT required for attendance. Upon graduation you will be able to immediately start helping people solve problems, resolve conflicts and reach goals as one of most highly trained practitioner in the entire field of hypnotherapy.

The Academy's professional preparation program offers you up to 400 hours of training in what you need to know to succeed in hypnotherapy.

At the Academy you learn the most important specialty applications. For example, will receive instruction in smoking cessation, weight loss, ending anxiety and stress relief and habit control. While hypnotherapy is never intended to replace medical or psychiatric treatment, hypnotherapy has proven to be an important complimentary therapy. You will learn protocols for accelerated healing, strategies for reducing acute and chronic pain, surgery preparation, as well as hypnotherapy for dentistry and childbirth.
