I'm Still Posting


I'm not really going crazy, but the studying has been intense. (And I like the above image by Sam Brown.) You may have noticed lately the infrequency of posts to this blog.

I'm still in Santa Fe. Still attending the Hypnotherapy Academy of America.

My typical weekday is attending class from 9-7, with before and after hours that sometimes stretch the day from 6 AM- 11 PM.

Weekends are devoted to reading, study, review, practice and documentation for full certification. I will be testing (a written and a practical) this Friday to earn official certification as a hypnotherapist. Then, with some more work, class time, etc., I will be able to add "clinical" to that title.

In class, we continue to see powerful demonstrations. Equally as interesting is our own work with clients (both student and non-student). What a gift to be able to participate in people's breakthroughs and achievements of their goals! My own personal breakthroughs (from sessions with me as the client) have alone been worth the time and energy.

I'm moving ahead simultaneously with the work needed to establish my own practice. This involves getting an office, beginning to schedule clients, hiring an accountant, etc. My wish list is available upon request!!

Thanks to everyone who has sent mail to me c/o of the school during this time. Your encouragement has been great and I really appreciate it.

Hi Dennis,
Good luck on your exam! There's been a great deal of enthusiasm about your studies tangible in your writing and also in personal communcication we've had. I am sure that this enthusiasm, allied with your academic and social skills, will result in excellent results.

I'm looking forward to seeing and talking to you in December.

Dennis! I can't believe how quickly the process goes...or, I should say, how quickly you've made it go. To think that you are already setting up an office is amazing. Just think, an office where your desk isn't cobbled out of scrap wood, rusty file cabinets, and cardboard boxes! And where people won't interrupt you as you work to ask where the Mad Libs are!

I would like to sign up as a patient on my first visit back to ABQ. Seriously, I will have some serious damage to undo, in addition to the obvious (spideys).
