About The Author


Ángela Simmerman-Sierra is a Certified Medical Support Clinical Hypnotherapist and co-director of the Hypnotherapy Academy of America.  Her work integrates the precision of science with the wisdom of inner experience, showing how emotions, images and beliefs influence the body’s ability to restore harmony and vitality.

In 1998, after surviving a near-fatal car accident that left her blind and without hope of recovery, Ángela experienced an extraordinary restoration of health through hypnotherapy and guided imagery. Without surgery or medication, she regained her eyesight and full physical function.  This personal healing inspired her to share the knowledge and practices that can help others access their own inner healing intelligence.

Today, Ángela teaches internationally recognized hypnotherapy methods validated by scientific research. Through her books and healing visualizations — such as Hypnotherapy & Mental Movies for Healing — she invites readers and practitioners alike to use the natural power of the mind to assist the body’s self-healing processes and nurture the spirit.

A Book with a Mission: To Heal from the Inside Out

This is more than a book—it’s a healing system. Through step-by-step guidance, full-color illustrations, and audio recordings of the mental movies, soon to be available on the website, patients/clients are invited to activate their innate healing power.

By using their imagination to see the immune system in action through the healing visualizations found in Chapter 4 of Hypnotherapy & Mental Movies for Healing, patients/clients learn to gently, creatively, and effectively participate in their own recovery.  This active participation not only strengthens the patient’s sense of involvement and purpose but also supports and amplifies the work of the medical team, creating a true partnership in the healing process.

 

Benefits For Practitioners

Practitioners will find this guide to be an invaluable tool to support their clients/patients in creating lasting physical and emotional transformation.  As a practitioner, you will gain:

  • New understanding of how to build a bridge between mind–body science and hands-on therapeutic tools.
  • Ready-to-use mental movie scripts for immune system activation.
  • Visualization techniques that inspire the patient/client to turn their attention inward and connect with their inner healing intelligence.
  • A model for combining guided imagery with clinical hypnosis to support healing.
  • A compelling example of neuroplasticity in action, empowering clients/patients to become collaborators in their own transformation.
  • A gentle, imaginative method to reduce fear and reframe illness.
  • This healing system is an ideal complement to both pediatric and adult oncology care, as well as support for other illnesses like autoimmune disorders.
  • This book helps transform treatment environments into spaces of peaceful awareness.

 

The Book Includes 240 Full-Color Pages, of which 204 are Soothing, Engaging Illustrations:

Hypnotherapy & Mental Movies for Healing is designed to inform and inspire healing while generating comfort.

The 204 images in this book show the patients/clients exactly what to visualize, helping both children and adults engage with the healing material at a subconscious level.  Whether you're a practitioner guiding a session or a patient reading alone, the layout invites calm focus, imagination, and inner connection.

 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Delivering Healing Visualizations:

Even if you are new to this work, the book offers a clear and gentle framework for guiding others through the healing visualizations.  Each mental movie includes detailed guidance, and imagery prompts to help practitioners deliver the experience with confidence and heart.

You will learn how to prepare the patient/client, set the tone, and use the subconscious mind language effectively.  Whether you are working with individuals, groups, or children, the instructions are designed to be adaptable.

 

Free Access to Audio Recordings:

To enhance the healing experience, professionally recorded audio versions of the mental movies, ideal for use in both personal practice and group settings, will soon be available on the website.

These recordings are especially valuable for patients/clients who want to begin using the mental movies immediately as a complement to their medical treatment.  In hospital or clinic environments, where patients often wait in silence, engage in fear-based conversations, or quietly suffer in isolation, these recordings offer a gentle alternative.  They can be played in a variety of settings, including:

  • At home, as part of a daily healing ritual.
  • At work, to reset and reconnect during breaks.
  • At the hospital, while waiting for appointments or procedures.
  • During chemotherapy, radiation, or other infusions, to bring calm and inner support.

By listening to the recordings, patients/clients can shift their focus away from fear and into peace of mind, through its guided healing imagery that activates the immune system.  This experience reduces stress, fosters comfort, and helps create a more uplifting emotional atmosphere, benefiting both patients and the medical staff who care for them.

Priya
Hypnotherapy and Mental Movies for Healing Angela Simmerman’s “Hypnotherapy and Mental Movies for healing” was exactly the type of imagery my client needed. Dealing with infertility, she enjoyed the imagery of the octopi repairing all parts of her reproductive system for optimal functioning. The Lilo imagery was perfect and soothing. The Spiral Starecase with loving hands repairing broken DNA or missing steps, was indeed wonderfully vivid. I highly recommend this book for people to use with their clients who enjoy imagery because as they are lulled into a hypnosis, the pictures are beautiful, bright and warm, and the end result that they’re looking for becomes easy to see. Thank you, Angela.! Read more
