We look forward to meeting Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 10:00am to noon at the Northeast Library, 6801 35th Ave NE, Seattle.Barbara Decker will present Somatic Tools and IEMT.IEMT is similar to EMDR, but available to Hypnotists. IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) allows the person needing assistance to follow an eye-movement protocol to lessen the impact of an incident in their life that constantly triggers a negative reaction. The situation is discussed, addressed, and given a number for its impact. As the movement continues, the number often lessens, and it becomes harder to “find” what they were upset about. Eye movement directly correlates with how the brain remembers incidents. This enables the distressed person to address their challenge and lessen the impact. Barbara’s training came from Sonia Griffiths of the UK.  This will be an experiential session.As a childbirth educator since 1971, I had the pleasure of being introduced to Hypnosis for Birthing in 1999. That began my journey, which expanded to becoming a Certified Consulting Hypnotist-NGH in 2011. Since then, I have combined teaching with learning techniques that assist healing from perinatal trauma and lived experiences that often come from the perinatal period. This awareness underpins my work helping people identify their triggers and take control of their lives.

Hello Fellow Hypnotists, We look forward to meeting on Saturday, September 12, 2026, from 10:00am to noon at the Northgate Library, 10548 5th Ave NE, Seattle. Sri (Sir-rē) Rome [She/Her] will present Hypnosis for Grief, Loss, and Healing. Grief can profoundly affect our emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. This presentation explores how hypnosis and other healing modalities can provide a safe, compassionate pathway to work through grief, process emotions, and reconnect with inner strength, while helping individuals understand hypnosis as a practical tool for healing and positive change. The focus is not on forgetting or “moving on” from a loved one, but on finding healthier ways to carry the love, honor the relationship, and move forward with greater peace and purpose. This work can help demystify hypnosis and demonstrate its potential as an accessible, empowering approach to navigating grief and supporting transformative wellbeing. Drawing on more than 15 years of supporting individuals with disabilities, along with my own healing journey, I offer an integrative approach that recognizes each person’s experience as unique. I combine Hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Somatic Breathwork, Reiki, and other healing modalities to support deep healing, transformation, freedom, and meaningful change. Through practical applications, participants can discover how these approaches may support emotional regulation, release limiting beliefs, reduce overwhelm, and develop greater self-awareness and resilience during times of loss and transition. Sri is, a Washington State Certified Hypnotherapist specializing in 5-PATH® Hypnosis. At Sri-enity Hypnosis, I create a safe, compassionate space to explore what holds you back and reconnect with your inner strength. Drawing on 15+ years supporting individuals with disabilities, along with my own healing journey, I integrate Hypnosis, EFT, Somatic Breathwork, Reiki, and other modalities to support deep healing, transformation, freedom, and meaningful change. “I’m here because I believe and have experienced that deep healing can create transformation and that when we become free to live life more fully, we open the door to an entirely different future.  It is my greatest joy to help others discover the amazing possibilities that are waiting for them.” ~Sri Sri Rome, Certified Hypnotherapist, Grief Support, Reiki Master and End of Life Doula, Sri-enity Hypnosis, 425-405-5854, 10011 50th Place W, Mukilteo, WA. Finding Serenity with Sri-enity Hypnosis, https://www.sri-enityhypnosis.com/, sri@sri-enityhypnosis.com.

NGHWA (National Guild of Hypnotists, Washington Chapter) loves to connect, educate the public about hypnosis and its applications and grow professionally. Hello Fellow Hypnotists, We look forward to meeting this Saturday, July 11, 2026, from 10:00am to noon at the Northeast Library, 6801 35th Avenue NE, Seattle. Dr. Jodie Solberg will present The SFTI Method of Mind-Body Transformation: A Trauma-Informed Hypnotic Approach to Lasting Physical Change.Physical symptoms often tell a deeper story. While many hypnotherapy approaches focus on reducing or eliminating symptoms, the SFTI (Solution Focused Trauma Informed) Method seeks to understand why the subconscious mind created those symptoms in the first place. In this educational presentation, SFTI Hypnosis Academy co-founder Dr. Jodie Solberg introduces the SFTI Method of Mind-Body Transformation, a clinical framework developed with her business partner, Cormac Colleran, that integrates solution-focused hypnosis, trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and subconscious change work. Participants will explore how unresolved emotional experiences, chronic stress, limiting beliefs, and protective subconscious patterns can contribute to physical conditions such as chronic pain, weight challenges, digestive disorders, autoimmune presentations, and other stress-related symptoms. Drawing from both neuroscience and years of clinical practice, this presentation demonstrates how working with the subconscious mind can support meaningful physical transformation while remaining within the ethical scope of hypnotherapy. Jodie will illustrate how practitioners can identify the emotional and psychological drivers of physical symptoms and facilitate lasting change by addressing root causes rather than managing symptoms alone. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the mind-body connection, the core principles of the SFTI Method, and practical strategies they can begin incorporating into their clinical practice immediately.     Dr. Jodie Solberg is a Certified Master Clinical Hypnotherapist, international speaker, and best-selling author, and co-founder of the SFTI Hypnosis Academy, where she trains Hypnotherapists worldwide. In her private practice, Psyched Up Success, she specializes in issues such as anxiety, addiction, and physical health challenges resulting from trauma. She serves as President of the NGH Washington Chapter and on the boards of the North American Hypnotherapy Guild and the Hypnosis Education Association. In 2025, Jodie was named Hypnotherapist of the Year by the Michigan International Hypnosis Conference.             Jodie will be giving away the book, Burnout to Bliss to one person in attendance.

NGHWA (National Guild of Hypnotists, Washington Chapter) loves to connect, educate the public about hypnosis and its applications and grow professionally. Hello Fellow Hypnotists, We look forward to meeting this Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10:00am to noon at the Marysville Library, 6120 Grove St, Maryville. Jeremy Huggard will present Ego States: Re-imagining our Inner Landscapes.Jeremy’s hypnosis trainer, Mike Mandel, says any issue we resolve with hypnosis is ultimately an ego state issue. Jeremy believes that most issues we encounter as hypnotists boil down to our clients feeling stuck. Maybe stuck with an addiction or unwanted behavior, maybe oppressive feelings or limiting beliefs, or perhaps simply not knowing what to do. In terms of ego states, what we’re dealing with is essentially old programming, systems that were designed to best navigate our lived experience at one time in our lives, and which may need significant help to properly update and align with what our conscious mind is currently working to achieve. Jeremy’s role as a hypnotist is to help clients more readily access their own resources and establish forward momentum with confidence, resilience, and grace. He doesn’t feel there’s a single best way to do this, and working with ego states is just the one that resonates most. Jeremy’s approach can change dramatically from client to client; however, the goals are always along the same lines… He wants to help their ego states work together, to feel enthusiastic about their roles, and to just feel happier in general. Jeremy came to hypnosis relatively recently, having started in late 2024, getting certified through the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy in early 2025, and now working towards opening an online practice in 2026. Drawn to ego state work from early on, the majority of Jeremy’s continued education and practice sessions have focused on that approach. He also runs a weekly online group practice through MMH where like-minded students can explore parts and work together. Jeremy will be giving away the book Therapist Gold: Treating Fear-Based Trauma and Attachment Trauma by Emmerson and Essing to one person in attendance.
