Welcome to the North American Institute of
NeuroTherapy Certification Program.
Responding To Changes In Psychology
Over 20 years, students from a wide range of backgrounds have certified as NeuroTherapy Specialists. The creators of NeuroTherapy Training, Henry Snyder and Marilyn Michael, knew from the beginning of their research that it was time for change in the methods of psychology. The neurological sciences had clearly shown that we are as we are largely because of the inner working of the brain and body. Traditional analytical, behavioral and cognitive models of therapy could not, with what was now known, offer people seeking help the self-control they desired. There was a physiology of emotion at the basis of undesired emotions and behaviors.
Psychotherapy, today, is too expensive for most people, at least for the number of sessions needed for effectiveness. More powerful tools were needed to see changes happen faster. Snyder and Michael realized that their model, neuroTherapy Training, fell within a new emerging set of therapeutic approaches, including biofeedback, but it took them into the future. It was mental training based, but unlike the other approaches, it treated emotion as a physiology. NeuroTherapy Training was a critically important for anyone facing illness of any kind, but beyond that it was a full psychotherapeutic process.
Training A New Breed Of Professional
It was also time, they felt, to address another needed change, Making psychotherapy more accessible to more people who needed help. A NeuroTherapy Specialist is a teacher-coach; a specialist within the field of psychology. Their primary role is to put tools into people's hands making them their own therapists. Over the years they have trained practicing therapists, nurses, chiropractors, massage therapists, reiki professionals-actually all nature of psychological and medical professionals as well as spiritual practitioners. They have also trained large numbers of people from all walks of life with no background in therapeutic disciplines who wanted to start a full or part-time career helping people.
