About

Debbie Unterman, Author, Master Alchemist, Clinical Hypnotherapist, Mediator, Certified Trainer

In her practice over the last twenty-five years, Debbie has seen thousands of clients, and taught hundreds of students in the techniques of Alchemical Hypnotherapy (www.alchemyinstitute.com). She describes herself as “a private eye for the soul” -helping people find themselves and restore lost dreams. She is well known for her work with survivors of childhood abuse or neglect, her innovative cure for co-dependency, and her skillful style in dealing with sub-personalities, all of which she has written a self-help book about, called Talking to My Selves: Learning to Love the Voices in Your Head. She is also skilled in helping couples relate better through cutting edge communication techniques.

Her education began with a BA degree in 1975 in Interpersonal Communications from the State University of New York, which included a minor in Theatre and a semester abroad in Paris. She began on her inner journey of self-exploration with the Alchemy process in 1983, the year it was created by David Quigley, and reached the status of being one of only a handful of approved Trainers in 1988. For 20 years she has been training others in this deeply mystical, yet completely practical set of tools. She received her certifications in Hypnotherapy and Jin Shin Do Acupressure from Heartwood College of the Healing Arts in Northern California. She is also certified by the State of Georgia as a Mediator through the Conflict Resolution Academy.

Debbie is  the founder of the Alchemical Hypnotherapy Associations (AHAA!) of Atlanta and New Zealand (Aoteoroa). She is also the creator of two therapy-based board games, Clarity: The Game of Your Life (www.PlayClarity.com) and Satori: The Game of Radical Forgiveness (www.radicalforgiveness.com).

A skilled communicator, she has presented workshops at venues such as Hypnosis Conferences, Mind/Body/Spirit Expos, and ATT; been a guest on various radio and cable television shows; and hosted her own weekly radio talk show on health in Northern California. Debbie Unterman is a dedicated healer whose compassion, listening skills and spiritual clarity motivate her students and clients. Her expertise, authenticity and insights are inspiring, while her enthusiasm is contagious.
