Without hesitation I would recommend North Shore Hypnosis to anyone thinking of becoming a hypnotist."

In a message dated 11/15/2006 12:03:56 P.M. Eastern Standard Time.....

Carol,

I know you probably get Gary Craig's E-mails so this might seem familiar to you but..... It reminded me so much of you and your generosity so I had to send it.

"There was once a wise woman traveling in the mountains who found a precious stone in a stream. The next day she met another traveler who was hungry, and she opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked if she might give it to him. She did so without hesitation. The traveler left, rejoicing in his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But only a few days later he came back to return the stone to the woman who had given it to him.
"I've been thinking," he said, "I know how valuable the stone is, but I'm giving it back in the hope that you can give me something even more precious. I want you to give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me the stone."
-Author Unknown

Thank you Carol, for being such a selfless teacher and mentor.
I hope some day if I reach the ability that I may teach I will have it in me to be that giving.

Thanks again,
Janine

Dear Carol,

You are like the woman in Proverbs whose value is above rubies.  I went to your classes seeking knowledge and I found wisdom. I came seeking instruction, and I found a place of rest for my soul.  It is a wondrous thing to look for the expected, and find the miraculous.

Whether or not my name is spelled rightly or wrongly on the certificate, the instruction that I received could not have been more personalized. 

You are a true teacher in every sense of the word: there is no limits to your influence, it reaches to eternity.  A tremendous responsibility to which you are perfectly suited.

The title Jesus most appreciated was to be called "Rabbi" meaning teacher.  Thank you, Rabbi Carol!

I look forward to my clinical time!

YOU'RE THE BEST!!!

Dear Carol, 
It�s difficult for me to adequately express my gratitude for the wonderful experience that your hypnosis training program provided for me (as well as for the rest of our group). I believe the difficulty lies in my inability to describe perfection.  Every aspect of the program was positive..from the resource material, to the environment in which the program was taught, to you as the facilitator. You are absolutely the consummate teacher!  You bring an abundance of information accompanied by lots of patience, positive reinforcement, empathy and smiles to the entire training experience.  I know that my sentiments are shared by all who experienced my class.  Thank you so much for having given me the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful work! 
                                                                   Sandy Nemeroff, Northport, NY

I highly recommend Carol D.'s training program because I mostly train  people who are already certified in basic hypnosis and I get to see the quality  of her students prior training -- when they study with me. 

Carol Denicker  is a first rate hypnosis educator - Her Grads are always well trained and  educated. - Michael Ellner

Just want to thank you for the opportunity to be at SUNY Farmingdale this week (and next Wednesday).  It certainly did alot to allay my anxieties and boost my self confidence.  The experience this week was exhilarating to say the least!  I worked with some really great people.  It was so gratifying to see highly tensed, stressed people just melt into a deep, relaxed trance state as I spoke.  It feels so good to know that I was able to help them feel better.  I have found my niche and I am so happy!  Thanks again!  - Gloria L

Hi Carol!
".........  everytime you give a class if someone in that class needs help, guidance, healing, reassurance.......  whatever........ you always, without fail, slow down and if need be change course and most definitely every day of your life in one way or another you help people to win......  in spite of themselves.
I came to you searching for a new beginning, another chapter in my life. You opened the door, helped me take the first steps thro' it, stood me up on my feet when I nearly crumpled into a heap, taught me how to help and heal myself so I can one day be useful and help others.  Every class I attended, I learned so much 'extra curricular' life lessons because of the way you addressed every situation that arose with such forthright honesty, dignity, humour and wisdom. Thank you for sharing all of your gifts, all your courage and experience, and for being so unconditionally generous in every way.  I am so truly blessed to have you as my friend, teacher and mentor.  Without doubt you are the finest teacher I have ever had in my life.

Hi Carol,

Thank you for a well prepared, stimulating, fascinating class.  You can really "mesmerize" your audience.  I learned so much and the class opened a whole new perspective into the healing arts. I will do the homework and submit it.  I'm looking forward to Part 2 and
wish it could be with our great group.  My gratitude to you for a wonderful learning experience.

Carol:

I thank you so much for these supporting words. It means so much to me that you can see the progress, which I may miss being too close in the works. Thank you. I do push to see some success very soon. It means so much to me that you trust me enough to allow me to speak in front of your audience and even think it was a success! The hypnotists world, and the world in general, needs more teachers like you! Understanding, generous and kind. Being knowledgeable and kind, You are allowing for the student's abilities to arise and creativity to come out, unfold and flow freely, supporting in all efforts and endeavors to expand and learn and progress in the business.

Fall of 2001:

Dear Carol, 

Yes, I arrived home safely.  I made it to the airport in lots of time and there were no problems at all.  There was a noticeable increase in security which was reassuring.  The homework is going along fine and haven't encountered any difficulties yet.  I'll let you know if I do though.  I was VERY pleased with the first half of training and am looking forward to coming back for the second part.  I can't believe that it will be less than a week now before I'm back there again. 
See you soon, take care.

Dear Carol
I am just return back from Torino. I went again in Torino to see my friend Laura and to help her in her inner struggle. She is really better. She said that the Hypnosis tapes that I did for her was very useful. This time we finally discovered the reason and we start to work on that together. I feel me more strong secure and motivated in my life and in my healing practice. The Hypnosis session that you gave me were miraculous for me. My life really start to change in many way. Same time I still feel the fear to fail but now I now how to deal with it.

Letizia Sebastianelli, Rome, Italy

Dear Carol:

Wow!! A million thanks to you and your wonderful way of teaching. Since I took your certification class, I have established a flourishing hypnotherapy business. I do feel that if I went anywhere else I wouldn't be as knowledgeable and confident as I am now. Thanks to you and your attention to detail, I gained so much insight. You made me feel very comfortable and secure when I met you for the first time. It is always a little intimidating when you go to a classroom for the first time, not knowing what to expect. As soon as I walked through the door, I knew I was in the right learning environment. Your cozy atmosphere, the warmth you radiated made my learning experience something that I will never forget. Your teaching and your sound advice gave me confidence that I didn't  dream I'd have.

Many thanks to you and God Bless   - DeeDee, Rhode Island
