Biography for Max Golden, CHt

Max is a Certified Hypnotherapist, Neuro-Linguistic Programmer, Life Coach, and member of the American Hypnosis Association. Having earned a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy from the Nationally Accredited Hypnosis Motivation Institute (HMI), with over 720 hours of interactive instruction, and years of dedicated study.

Max actively upgrades his skill set through continuing education from several academic institutions. Max also holds over fifty professional certifications (686+ hours of instruction) including: Hypnosis for Pain Management, Smoking Cessation, Weight Management, Hypnosis for Fears and Anxieties, EFT, Advanced Handwriting Analysis, and Metaphysical Imagery.

Max has been a lifelong scholar of various philosophies, religions, and sciences. This broad knowledge of differing points of view has led him to the realization that the myriad of practices and techniques utilized by these seemingly incompatible disciplines, all have at their core, the exact same goal: to bring the individual or group closer to perceived perfection. It is with this understanding that he crafts the unique tools of his practice. His desire, like that of sages, mystics, and scientists throughout the ages, is to provide the tools for each person, and humanity as a whole, to bring themselves to a heightened state of excellence.

To this end he uses various modalities, technologies, teachings, and techniques to assist his clients in expanding their conscious perception, exploring their subconscious programming, enhancing their natural abilities, and empowering their will to exceed beyond all limitations; emancipating them to manifest the fully satisfying lives they truly desire, thus evolving humanity towards a more pleasurable reality.
