The instructor was excellent in material presentation, explanations and knowledge base. She was also personable, approachable and openly shared experience, knowledge and resources. I truly enjoyed this class, earned a lot and was able to practice and integrate what I was learning in a supportive environment I would highly recommend this course to others, totally worth it in many ways.

Most valuable: the plethora of resources, the in depth understanding of the materials by the instructor and her teaching style. This was the best training I’ve attended. Very thoughtful and well done! Thank you.

As part of the life-between-lives training, I came under the loving wings of Coach Sue Joy. My journey under her guidance was incredibly amazing. Her teaching, the precision in going deeper into the subject with an utmost curiosity, and an ability to understand the self which guides to an empathetic approach towards the subject, are the lessons I have acquired from her.

Coach Sue Joy is not only highly skilled but also incredibly intuitive. I highly recommend Sue to anyone looking to explore life between lives, hypnotherapy, or past life regression. Whether you are seeking personal growth, healing, or just curious about these modalities, Sue will provide an insightful and nurturing environment that allows you to achieve real results.

Why study hypnosis?

This course of study is excellent for those who seek career advancement and want to work with people in a private professional practice. It is also suitable for mental health professionals (therapists, counselors, social workers, nurses) and teachers who want to enhance their skills in facilitating change in people’s lives.

Sue is affiliated with the IACT (International Association of Counselors and Therapists) as an instructor of hypnotherapy and past life regression. She is offering Hypnosis and Past Life Certification courses via ZOOM. Sue is authorized to use the class materials developed by Paul Aurand for both the hypnotherapy and past life regression courses.

The hypnosis curriculum focuses on parts therapy and regression therapy for those who want to learn a more client-centered, transpersonal approach to hypnotherapy.

At the Labyrinth Center, class size is limited in order to assure that everyone will receive the personal attention that Sue is noted for. All printed materials have been approved by the IACT.

Why study at The Labyrinth Center?

I have been teaching for over twenty years. I only teach small classes and provide excellent additional written materials. Evaluations by my students for the past ten years have been “Excellent” on all accounts: knowledge, preparation, effectiveness, enthusiasm, clarity, ability to explain underlying fundamentals and interest in students’ learning as well as developing their self-confidence.
