Advanced Depth Hypnosis (Live Stream) - Sacred Stream Center, Berkeley, CA

Advanced Depth Hypnosis is a healing certification course offered by the Foundation of the Sacred Stream, taught live by video conference and hosted through the Sacred Stream Center in Berkeley, California. It is a live stream training in Depth Hypnosis, the therapeutic model created by Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D., and it suits people who want to continue their study of this work from wherever they live.

What to Expect

The course runs over three consecutive days, with each day set from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm Pacific time, the Berkeley schedule. In the live stream format, students join at a set time and take part in real time through video conference, rather than working through recorded lessons on their own. Class dates and times can change, so it helps to confirm the schedule before you plan your week.

Advanced Depth Hypnosis sits within a longer path of study at the Foundation. The same program includes a Depth Hypnosis Foundation Course, supervised practice, supervisory sessions and a course called Next Steps in Depth Hypnosis. Each of these is offered separately.

About Isa Gucciardi

Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D., is the Founding Director of the Foundation of the Sacred Stream, a non-profit school for consciousness studies in Berkeley, California, founded in 2002. She is the creator of Depth Hypnosis and the author of Coming to Peace.

Her path into this work began early. She spent most of her early years in other countries before moving to the United States as a teenager, and she was struck by how little people around her wanted to talk about death. Reading Elisabeth Kübler-Ross's On Death and Dying in the early seventies came as a relief. Years of volunteering in hospice settings, including the Zen Hospice Project, led her to a view she still holds: everyone grieves in their own way, and the most helpful thing is often to sit quietly and offer a non-judgmental space. That approach runs through her Depth Hypnosis practice.

The Setting

The Sacred Stream Center in Berkeley is the home of the Foundation's teaching, where it also holds in-person gatherings such as sound healing meditations and drum circles. For this course, students attend by live stream, so the place is where the teaching originates and you take part from your own space.
