Tim Simmerman Sierra

As the Academy's lead instructor, Tim transforms the classroom into an exciting, fun and stimulating environment. He has a talent for distilling complex theories of the mind into their practical therapeutic application. He masterfully guides the student to an advanced understanding of the suggestive sciences and uncovering/regression therapy methods. Tim's enthusiasm comes from his direct experience of helping hundreds of people to create the healthy, happy and successful lives they dream of.

Tim is recognized internationally as an expert in Hypnotherapy. As a result of his accomplishments he currently serves as vice-president of the International Board of Hypnotherapy, and served two terms as president of the American Council of Hypnotist Examiners (A.C.H.E.) from 2003-2005, and from 2007-2009.

In 1995 Tim became the Director of the Academy, which has been licensed as a private post secondary institution/career school by the State of New Mexico since 1988. His former career as a nationally registered paramedic helps him integrate hypnotherapy and conventional medicine into some of the very best medical hypnosis training available. His book, Medical Hypnotherapy: Principles and Methods of Practice, is an effective handbook, not only for professionals in the healthcare system, but also for anyone who wants to learn how clinical hypnosis can help people discover and activate their own inherent self-healing capacity.
