Praise For Melissa’s Work
She is a remarkable teacher, practitioner and scholar.

I went to Melissa many years ago for hypnosis for insomnia. I was also one of her earliest students, in her first hypnosis certification class. I haven't stopped learning from her since. Melissa has rare natural talents as a clinician. She is also more curious that Curious George and will go through books like a wild fire spreading though a prairie. You will rarely catch Melissa in the dark about something new in the field. Then there is her personality. She is as funny as she is warm and smart. And one of the most no-nonsense, let's-get-on-with-it type of person you will ever meet. The combination of all of the above makes her rather exceptional, whether the encounter is as a client or as a student. Refreshing and healing at the same time. Kudos to Melissa.

Her influence has transformed the way I practice psychiatry and my patients have been the direct benefactors. Very few clinicians come close to Melissa’s versatility in utilizing and teaching these skills. She remains one of the most talented, creative and generous human beings I have ever encountered.

I'm a psychiatrist with over 40 years experience and this class was the best investment in time and money I have ever made for both personal growth and professional development.
This was truly a mind expanding experience!"

I always give credit to you when I first introduce Hypnosis to my clients so they have a context, and everytime I talk about you, I smile. After being a therapist for over 20 years and a Life Coach of 4 years, your work is some of the most influential in bringing change for my clients, and my own life too! Your humor and silliness in your delivery help keep my attention, so I always appreciate that too.

As a hypnotherapist who’s completed many professional trainings, I can honestly say this one has been the most valuable and practical. It didn’t just teach techniques but also the 'why' behind them, which made a huge difference for me. Mellissa is also super fun to spend time with. I found myself excited for every session and didn't want it to end!
Andrea DeBellis
———————————
The content is my jam: neuroscience combined with techniques that seem magic, because they are fast yet lasting, it works! Melissa´s teaching style gets to the point and cuts out all the fluff. Also doesnt let the class go of the rails with unrelated topics and keeps bringing focus back to the essentials. It’s focused on practicing, with many sessions adapted to different time zones, even if you cant make the class live you will be able to practice. There is continued support during the course in a facebook group and my questions were always answered. I feel privileged to have been able to take this course and look forward to more.

Melissa Tiers Teaching Demos of Coaching the Unconscious Mind is an example of excellence. It all seems so simple and natural, that you could be forgiven for thinking that nothing special is taking place. Yet, you see people's lives effortlessly changed before your eyes. And the beauty is, Melissa's inspirational teaching ensures that you actually could do this too!
'Melissa exudes humour, confidence, care and a spirit of creativity. And she frequently uses them to her advantage in delightful ways. A genuine pleasure to watch an expert at work. '
Graham Old, Author/Hypnotherapist

Melissa Tiers is simply an amazing teacher. She makes learning an enjoyable event, or beginning of an event, really, because as you get more comfortable using the skills, you will find yourself thinking: “Oh! That works on so many levels!”
Melissa is a walking reference library and will amaze with the depth and scope of her knowledge.
Dan Cleary, Hypnosis instructor and author of "Targeting Pain"
———————————
Melissa Tiers not only coaches the Unconscious Mind, she teaches it too, seamlessly integrating theory, technique, and application in such a way that you can practically feel your neurons firing off as you absorb it all. In fact, learning from Melissa is one of those rare instances where the teacher makes it look easy when she does it - and then actually makes sure it's easy when you do it too. Clearly no one ever told her learning and fun don't go together, and we're certainly better off because of it."
Sabrina Bolin, Intuitive Coach and Hypnotherapist, Los Angeles, CA, http://www.sabrinabolin.com/
Henry Adams said "A teacher affects eternity. He can never tell where his influence ends." Melissa is an excellent teacher. She teaches her students to become excellent hypnotists. No one can tell where her influence ends.

Melissa Tiers draws from a vast and inspired array of therapeutic sources; her training reflects that by being eclectic and very thorough. Trainees will leave her course feeling prepared to help clients in a variety of situations, with a whole pantry of techniques and approaches. Best of all, she also provides caring supervision and practice long after the training ends. I am deeply grateful for Melissa's Integrated Hypnosis training!
Paula Carino

Melissa's training changed my life. Literally. Within 5 minutes of meeting Melissa she had led me to let go of a long standing issue. Before I trained with Melissa I was already an NLP Master Practitioner, but I was under the impression that hypnosis, NLP and other change work was essentially a series of unrelated exercises or patterns to put a client through. She opened my eyes (while closing them) to the integrative nature of all these disciplines. Take Melissa's course, you'll be glad you did!
Shawn Carson - NLP Trainer, New York

Melissa has rare talents as a clinician !
As both a therapist and hypnotherapist in private practice I need to keep my various skills fresh as well as ever expanding. Melissa Tiers has been my resource of choice for several years now.
I have taken all of her classes at least a couple of times and will continue because the material presented is always enriched with new and fascinating dimensions. This is a testimony to
Melissa's open-mindedness to the new, and her dedication to her own personal growth, the benefits of which she shares with both piers and students in an incredibly generous way.
Her enthusiasm for the work is contagious and having her mentorship has been both life and career expanding. I recommend her classes whole heartedly to all the ones ready for new life dimensions
as well as a strong desire to help others create positive change in their life.

She Rocks!
I have nursed for over 40 years, and decide that I need some new skills for my clients and for my own use. I took an introductory course of Hypnosis with Melissa what I had learn that Monday night, I got to use the next day with one of my clients with outstanding success. I knew that I had to learn everything I could from this dynamic teacher. Took her her full course and she rocks. What a wonderful experience, every encounter has been eye opening, informative, hands on, and smile provoking. I am a believer that when a student is ready to learn, a teacher will appear and Melissa is that person. If you really want to know how to help people and be a change agent, then Melissa is your call
Mercedes Herman

I would choose to learn from Melissa over and over again. Her no BS energy paired with her wit and humor make her simply magnetic.
This program has been such a gift, and I'm already changing lives with what I've learned. Every class was packed full of information presented in a fun and creative way. Melissa gives you permission to make the tools and techniques your own, with what feels good to YOU.
If you're even a little bit interested in hypnosis or are looking for a new superpower, here's your chance to work with an elite leader in this field. Best decision ever!

I have taken a lot of hypnosis trainings and nothing comes close to what I learned in training with Melissa.
The course was full of play, laughter and fun. Highly recommend! And oh yeah, my own business has taken off like never before.

Getting certified with Melissa Tiers has been one of my BEST investments thus far! Learning from Melissa taught me to love and embrace my curiosity in whatever way possible. Melissa poured so much goodies into me that my cup is overflowing!

Melissa teaches in a way that gives students the authority and confidence to be creative with the new learning right from the start. Besides being one of the best kick-ass hypnotists and teachers ever, Melissa is also one of the coolest and nicest people under this sun. Training with Melissa is by far the best investment you can ever make.

Having the opportunity to learn from Melissa was the best investment I could have made - professionally and personally. Learning from her has changed me in the best way. She doesn’t just teach, she empowers you to trust your own knowledge, skills, and creativity to use hypnosis in a way that is “you” rather than following a script. I love that with her approach there are endless ways of using the skills I now have in a way that is fun for me and incredibly powerful for my clients. I almost didn’t write this because it’s hard to put into words just how transformative her classes are, but all I can say is if you’re on the fence - do it! Zero regrets.
Amelia Pinkston
———————————
Learning from Melissa has been nothing short of a GIFT. The way she layers concepts and weaves them in is hypnotic. I was learning so much without even realizing how much I was taking in. Hands down she is a fabulous, one of a kind teacher & human who's incredibly skillful at her craft and teaches it with ease & fun to others. I'm forever grateful.

You should consider taking ANY class from Melissa Tiers if you want to learn how to be transformed and how to provide transformative experiences for your clients. Melissa has opened up a universe of possibilities for me as an integrative life coach. When you leave Melissa’s trainings (but you won’t ever want to), you leave with a toolbox overflowing with ways to help your clients change what they want to change. But what I love most about Melissa is her humanity. She cares for her clients and she cares about her students. She wants you to be just as kick ass as she is. Sign up for life changing learnings.

I never thought in a million years that I would be Certified in Integrative Hypnosis! Getting certified with Melissa Tiers has been one of my BEST investments thus far! Learning from Melissa taught me to love and embrace my curiosity in whatever way possible. Melissa poured soo much goodies into me that my cup is overflowing! Thank you, Melissa, for all your support! I highly recommend this course and anything Melissa Tiers has to offer!

Since I first took the BFCC training with Melissa, my coaching has not only become completely wild -in the most positive sense- but also SURGICALLY precise. As a result, the shifts I now facilitate in my clients are INCREDIBLY profound, fast, life-changing, earth-shifting, and really nothing short of magical. Everything I have learnt from Melissa weaves naturally into my existing skill set and lifts ALL of my tools to a whole other level (especially EMDR). This Hypnosis training has given me an even deeper understanding of how to work with the unconscious mind and has added more magic to my coaching. Melissa teaches in a way that gives students the authority and confidence to be creative with the new learning right from the start. As a result, even though I was a total newbie to hypnosis, I have been able to apply my new skills immediately and play with them creatively with confidence. Besides being one of the best kick-ass hypnotists and teachers ever, Melissa is also one of the coolest and nicest people under this sun. Training with Melissa is by far the best investment you can ever make.

Seriously, my whole outlook on hypnosis and change work has been reinvigorated the whole possibility of real change using these processes with the skills I have, gives me confidence to go for what I really want.
Melissa tells u what u need to know, very practical in order to practice and make it you own.
You don’t get bogged down in theory, exactly what you need to know, really.
And she will direct you to endless resources to satisfy you need to please your type A personality.
My life is so much better with Melissa and her community, the sense of safety around knowing she won’t drop you without giving u avenues to continue to grow is quintessentially what makes me believe, that I will evolve my business and set up change work that helps the people I get to help.
That’s right! Really!

I’ve been wanting to learn hypnosis for years now, but I am so glad I got my first hypnosis certification from Melissa.
Her approach is truly integrative, she has a profound knowledge of the neuroscience of changework & taught us wonderful tools and techniques to help our clients.
What I enjoyed the most about Melissa’s teaching is her playfulness & curiosity. There’s no rigid script, no protocol, she teaches to think outside of the box, to play around.
With her approach, each changework session feels like a dance, a co-creation that results in profound & generative changes.

I have finally taken my last training course. How do I know? Melissa retaught me how to think for myself to resolve ANY client issue. Wow. My clients and I thank you for training us to use our own subconscious to resource our best life!

Melissa doesn’t hold back on giving you every resource you need to become the best Integrative change worker you can be. Her unflagging commitment to her students is matched only by the depth of her subject matter knowledge.Put more simply - she cares and she knows her shit.

MELISSA MAGIC. That is what I call it.
It is not just hypnosis, it is the combination of experience, deep research, practice, intuition, mucking around and playing with constructs that become foundational building blocks. In addition to listening to and learning directly from the amazing Melissa Tiers, you will be surrounded by the most supportive, encouraging group of people in an aligned learning environment that is safe and accepting. Melissa Magic sends out the vibrational resonance for congruence amongst the participants and you will notice that immediately!!
MELISSA MAGIC.
More than hypnosis, this is an experience that will immerse you and give you tools and resources to not only reconfigure your own thoughts, beliefs and preconceived notions, but equip you to make the magic happen for your Self as well as your clients and patients.
Melissa Tiers is the real deal. She is a natural teacher, graced with exquisite humanity, a midwife for all her students.
She shares her lived experiences, her deep knowledge of hypnosis, her fascination with all things neuroscience, her laughter, her insights, her intuitive sparks, and her ENTHUSIASM for possibilities. Melissa encourages you to learn the basics and then PLAY and PRACTICE to truly dive into the information and experiences that will become the fabric of your practice, to support human beings untangle themselves. What a gift to learn how to make a difference in the lives of people who can benefit from the healing power of the brain!!!
You will find your BEST INVESTMENT of time, money and brain cells in this program and you will continue your journey of unfolding with
curiosity, compassion and a collection of resources you never imagined but always hoped would be available.
MELISSA MAGIC … let the adventure begin!!

I came across Melissa’s teachings in the IACT magazine, thought to myself I have GOT to learn from her, and have never looked back. She teaches you how to empower your clients with the tools for powerful change from the very first class. She truly cares about her students and blends compassion, generosity and patience with her vast and deep knowledge, personal attention, hilarious humor, and a fun, down-to-earth New York vibe that makes you just want to just hang out in class with her all day. She brings out the best in us, and not only have I learned so much but I have also made lifelong friends in her classes. Melissa encourages you to bring your own unique magic to your work, and my confidence as a change worker and hypnotist has amplified so much as a result. I am so in for continuing to learn from Melissa!
Elizabeth Fogarty
———————————
I feel so confident in my ability to work with any client now and bring change for them, all because of the skills Ilearned in Melissa's courses. All this while staying curious and learning to find my own voice and style. As Melissa says, f*** around and find out. In her courses, this is true in the most literal way.
Tamara Stupalova
———————————
Where do I even begin? Just a quick disclaimer that whatever I write would not do justice to how much I appreciate the teaching and training I’ve experienced in this course.
Melissa Tiers is the embodiment of everything I want in myself and in my client: Congruency and Curiosity, Humor and Humanity, Integrity and Intensity… the list can go on.
Not only did I learn the most powerful and transformative tools and techniques, I also learned so much about myself and about life. Each time I attended a class with Melissa, I fell in love with her even more! Melissa will arm you with so much knowledge in neuroscience and the most practical tools to utilize right away. Her teaching is like a diamond, a vast amount of knowledge and experiences condensed through Melissa’s fearless experiments and never-ending quest for honing her already masterful skills!
Melissa provokes and protects you, nudges and nurtures you, educates and entertain you. And most of all, Melissa, through her teaching and training, empowers you to be the kind of person you envision to be.
I just never wanted our training to be over, and guess what. It won’t! I am hugely comforted by the fact that it won’t be over, like forever, with her generous offering of lifelong biweekly supervision sessions. Seriously, who does that?! It just shows how much Melissa cares about her students and how much she wants to help us to be truly transformative change workers!
I am so happy that I have met someone that I genuinely adore and respect and am truly excited about witnessing the blooming of all the seeds we’ve planted during our training course with Melissa!

I have owned a brain my whole life and never knew how to use it. Melissa's course gave me the owner's manual I didn’t know I had been missing. If you want to spend years in therapy dissecting your past, great. If you want rapid and lasting change for yourself and your clients in days, not years, this is the course you want.
Ashana Larson

I think you already have one from me, but I'd also like to say that I've spent my life being educated, went through academia, got my PhD and so on. You, Melissa, are by far one of the best teachers I've ever met and worked with and it is just such a joy to learn from someone who loves to teach, loves their work, and who never stops growing and learning. You are an excellent mentor. And I especially love how you keep up on all the literature and continue to weave it all into your work and share it with students, it's the most transparent learning experience I think I've ever had.
Thank you

It has been the BEST investment ever in my coaching career and in my time, and has surpassed my expectations. I am more confident in my ability to coach and support other humans than I ever imagined. The container of connection, practice, teaching, learning, curiosity, laughter, play, and encouragement is unmatched.

This program has completely changed the way I coach, run my business, and live my life. I have built connections with people that will last a lifetime, and I can’t wait to keep practicing this work for the rest of my career.

I had no idea I could accelerate this quickly and profoundly. The ripple effects of being able to transform anxiety in myself, my family, and my patients are profound. Thank you for helping me see my unconscious limiting beliefs about being a person of color while emerging in this industry and helping me shatter the f*** out of them. So much gratitude for holding this mystical neuroscience space for all of us.

This was the course that I entered as as caterpillar and left as a butterfly. This was a course that taught me both consciously and unconsciously, that forever changed the relationship with my unconscious. This is a place I found my people, spoke my truth, and felt myself seen and celebrated. There are no words for the enormity of the gift, and still unfolding breadth of the impact.

I’ve been through a LOT of education and trainings in my life. I wasn’t prepared to actually change on so many levels in this training, which was hands down the most impactful educational experience I’ve had. I feel like I can sit down with almost any human with almost any problem and really help them, even in one short session.
You have shown us how to tap into something exquisite, magical, energetic… and scientific and research-backed, all in one. There is no doubt in my mind that our work will ripple out and continue to change the world.
Amy Briggs Klink

Best coach training I’ve taken, hands down. You delivered above and beyond and this community of coaches is truly next level, so grateful! Everything about this training was fun and expansive.
Shanti Berryman
———————————
This was the coaching course I have been looking for, which resonates with my work ethic. I’ve never felt aligned with listening and getting told to do what to do by a coach. I wanted to become a coach that empowers, an enabler, not an accountability partner nor an authoritative figure. I believe in people’s capabilities to care for themselves and change. This course was sent by the universe to me to change my life and many more lives to come.
