After five years of training with Rick and learning all of the facets of the training curriculum of The Australian Academy of Hypnosis™. John is now the Principal of The Western Australian division of The Australian Academy of Hypnosis™ and he conducts the significant amount of training in Western Australia.
John is a talented and versatile hypnotherapist who practices clinical hypnosis from his busy Perth clinic. He was born and raised in Perth, Western Australia and is a WA practitioner member of the CCH.
John enjoys a very active professional and social life and his interested include music, the arts, philosophy, frequencies, human behaviour, natural health, hypnosis, magnetism, and playing basketball, and is rather well known and appreciated in certain circles for his excellent beer brewing and alcohol distilling skills.
Endowed with a strong sense of self, John resonates a caring, friendly, and charismatic personality to all and sundry. He is also possessed with a natural and energetic zest for life. After completing a BA in Philosophy at UWA and not really knowing what he wanted to do, he did, however know what he didn't want to do, so he took a year off and travelled to London and Europe.
After much ruminating, John decided that he wanted to pursue a career in the helping and human endeavour professions. So he studied and completed accredited training in massage and Bowen Therapy before, through a mutual acquiantance, he met Rick Collingwood, principal of The Australian Academy of Hypnosis™.
John completed his "Certificate of Hypnosis" with the academy in 2002, after which time he began to include Clinical Hypnotherapy as an additional or complementary modality to his Bowen Therapy. Finding that he had a natural talent for inducing hypnosis and using it with great effect in a clinical situation, John then completed his " Certificate of Advanced Hypnosis" in 2004.
The passion John has for hypnosis and the skills he developed for using it were quickly noticed by Rick, and in February 2005 he became Rick’s understudy and assistant trainer. After five years of personal instruction from Rick on all aspects of the academies various training levels and courses, in July 2008 John became the Western Australian Licensee and Principle of the academy. John enjoys his professional practice and the satisfaction that comes with the ability to help others walk a smoother and more comfortable path. He also revels in training hypnosis, especially the old direct styles and rapid inductions, and looks forward with positive anticipation to the future of hypnosis in Australia as an equally recognised and respected clinical health and healing modality.
