The End Of An Era -
We're Closing our Orlando Office In June

Phoenix Services began in San Francisco in January of 1991 ... we moved to Orlando and opened our office in College Park in September 1998.  25 and a half years ago

During those years we've had so many great adventures and offered countless trainings and workshops and thousands of client sessions. We've held our monthly "First Monday" program hundreds of times since the beginning.

The building that we've been renting has been sold ... and it's time for us to go.

We have no immediate plans of opening a new "brick and mortar" facility ... but will continue our work online.   Meeting clients on ZOOM. running classes, workshops and special events online.   And possibly an occasional in-person events in professional meeting venues.

We're working on the plan at the moment, so watch for details of the unfolding future ... we'll keep you posted.

Virtual Chapter - IACT/IMDHA
Free Monthly Online Meetings  - Hot Topics

And you can be a part of the excitement. Join with us on ZOOM as we help to build a strong chapter to support hypnotists and hypnotherapists, NLPers and others interested in personal growth and change.  These monthly meetings are an opportunity to connect with others and enjoy live speakers and presentations that can help you in your work and keep you informed about matters of interest in the hypnosis community and in IACT/IMDHA.

One Last FIRST MONDAY
Our Monthly Gathering  Is Ending after 25 Years in Orlando

On the first Monday of each month, beginning at 7:30 PM. There has been a public event at Phoenix Services.   These events gave us the opportunity to gather with friends, exchange ideas, review various topics about personal growth and evolution and to introduce new material as well.

As we close our College Park location ... this program is going on a hiatus.  

This month's program:

NLP in Action ....                    
Looking Forward
and letting go

Monday, May 6th, 2024
7:30PM
LIVE! in Orlando
​

For the past twenty five years we've been meeting every month to gather with our curious friends and explore the process of personal development.  Mostly focusing on hypnotherapy and NLP, with occasional forays into transpersonal processes ... always with an underlying message about how we can create our lives and achieve the outcomes and goals that are important to us.  We have taught people how to understand themselves more fully and to allow themselves to evolve ... unfolding their own richness and self expression as they "follow their bliss".

This is our final meeting of the group and we're looking forward to sharing experiences, reflections and using what we've learned to create a pathway into the future.   

Meanwhile, Michael will continue to host "The Virtual Chapter" online with co-host Karen Hand and an array of interesting and helpful special guests on the second Tuesday evening of each month.
