Academy director Meredith McCarthy
Current President of the New Zealand Association of Professional Hypnotherapists
Kia ora, my journey in hypnotherapy began over three decades ago. For over eleven years, I had the privilege of imparting my knowledge as a trainer at another esteemed school. However, a call deep within beckoned me to mould a new legacy, one that encapsulates all the profound experiences I've gathered from my full-time practice. Working with real people, confronting real challenges, and witnessing real transformations has been both an honour and a revelation. This tangible connection with humanity made me see my role in a new light: not just as a therapist or a teacher, but as a sacred guardian of souls.
Beyond hypnotherapy, I wear the mantle of a Reiki Master Teacher. Since 2007, I teach meditation and run wellbeing retreats, this has been an integral part of my life. It's not just about healing; it's about kindling the spark within, allowing one to navigate the journey of life with grace, wisdom, and serenity.
Passion fuels me every day, to see my students thrive, to watch them carry forward the legacy of healing and transformation, feels akin to watching ripples spread across a pond
– starting with a single point of intent and cascading outwards in waves of positive change.
With the NZACH, I aim to extend this ripple effect further. I envisage a world where every student, equipped with the tools of our teachings, becomes a beacon of healing. Together, let's amplify the healing energy of Aotearoa and send forth powerful ripples of transformation across the world.
