I appreciated this course and wish I could "ask the instructor" questions about the sessions with clients... that's the only negative to this experience. I do wonder how different Lisa would work with the same clients today, now that she has years and years more experience... just curious. Thank you!

Thank you, Lisa, for this truly excellent course I have already put into practice with several seniors I work with.

I really enjoyed this marvelous PPV course on Hypnosis and Seniors. I have such a deep and profound adoration for my elders, with origins into my strong attachments to my grandparents and their siblings and cousins, since I was a very young girl. I grew up captivated by the wisdom and stories. So I look forward to integrating them heavily into my practice, in a very rewarding and self-fulfilling way. Thank you HMI!

I was motivated to take this certification course because I have always developed meaningful bonds with older individuals even at younger ages in my life, and I enjoy sharing time with those who are older and wiser than I may be. Lisa presented the information in this course in a way that resonated well with me, and I feel more prepared to work with senior clients.

What is clear to me me here is that seniors are not seniors. They are people. They have many of the same desires and frustrations of younger people, but sometimes complicated by age issues such as extra health concerns.

Hypnosis and Seniors is a great course. I enjoyed every minute and learned things I didn't know. For example, I did not know that hypnotherapy can help people with Dementia. It was very helpful to have 12 sessions of Lisa working with clients. I would recommend this class to fellow hypnotherapists. The senior population is growing in numbers and seniors can definitely improve the quality of their lives with hypnotherapy.

I found this course to be educational and enlightening. Lisa has a much different style than I have in the past but I will definitely be emulating her clear, concise verbiage. I noticed the clients valued her sincerity and I appreciate her non-judgemental, genuine approach. Thank you Lisa!
