Yvonne Smith

Yvonne Smith began researching the UFO phenomenon in the late 1980s and is the author of “CHOSEN: Recollections of UFO Abductions Through Hypnotherapy.”

The book exposes, with dramatic regressive hypnotherapy transcripts, the hidden memory trauma reality suffered by abductees.

As the foremost female hypnotherapist in this field, in the 1990s Yvonne traveled on a lecture tour with hypnotherapy colleagues the late Dr. John Mack of Harvard and pioneer Budd Hopkins, and also David Jacobs, PhD. of Temple University.

Her first exposure and interest in hypnotherapy was a lecture by hypnotherapist pioneer Budd Hopkins and learned that hypnotherapy was such a useful tool in helping people suffering from PTSD.

After 2 years of studies and 1000 hours of internship a California Hypnosis Motivation Institute, the only accredited hypnosis college in the United States, she received her hypnotherapy certification in 1990.

Specializing in cases of post-traumatic stress disorder, she uses her hypnotherapy skills to assist such victims to work through their anxiety.

In UFO circles, whenever there is a reported sighting, UFO investigators typically emphasize and evaluate whether the experiencer’s description of the event actually supports the reality of an actual UFO contact or not.  All too often the emotional trauma on the experiencer is ignored, and this is the part that Yvonne specializes in.

Known in UFO circles as  “hypnotherapist Yvonne” – she observed that many of the PTSD cases being referred to her were describing similar patterns of UFO abduction encounters. As a result, she founded Close Encounters Resource Organization [CERO] as a monthly-meeting support group in 1992.

She was also on the board of the Organization for Paranormal Understanding and Support (OPUS) which furthers this kind of support.

Many of her subjects are referred to her by physicians and psychiatrists who believe Smith’s expertise can benefit their patients. Her patients come from all walks of life, including doctors, university professors, military, engineers, lawyers, domestic and foreign pilots other professionals and many non-professionals, and travel from all over the globe to meet with her in Los Angeles.
