(PRWEB) April 26, 2007 -- This summer, the National Guild of Hypnotists is offering a certified consulting hypnotist course as part of the NGH Summer Institute and the NGH Convention and Educational Conference. For many who will attend, learning the techniques of hypnotism offers an additional proficiency that they will add to their skills and credentials as nurses, counselors and coaches. For others, becoming a certified consulting hypnotist marks a major career transition and the promise of new opportunities to help people in meaningful ways. Some students in the NGH certified consulting hypnotist course enroll to learn hypnotism purely for themselves. They see hypnosis certification as a way to increase their self-confidence and master techniques of visualization and self-hypnosis.
Every year the NGH Convention draws nearly two thousand hypnotists, therapists, counselors and health care professionals looking to expand their training, add certifications and network with others in their profession. Also attending the convention are many newcomers to the field of hypnotism. In 1988, Patricia E. MacIsaac was one of those newcomers, enrolled in the certified consulting hypnotist course. Today Patricia MacIsaac, LPN, CMI, is certified to teach both basic and advanced NGH hypnosis courses and will co-teach the Summer Institute certified consulting hypnotist course for the National Guild of Hypnotists.
