Neal K Willing MA LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor
Since 1998 Neal has provided counseling, psychotherapy and hypnosis services with a specialization in Medical Hypnoanalysis. Taught the modality as a trainer at national conventions and workshops while serving on the Board of The American Academy of Hypnoanalyisis as Board member, Board Chair, and President.
Neal first became interested in counseling as a member of an Episcopal parish providing support and comfort for the members of the perish. As a result he returned to college at Siena Heights University while working full time as a Diecast Die maker at Fords since his original college career at Wayne State was interrupted by the Vietnam War.
Completing an undergraduate degree in General Studies and a Master of Arts degree in Community Agency Counseling at Siena University he qualified and earned a Michigan license as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). Medical Hypnoanalysis was chosen as the treatment method of choice as this approach enables clients to reach their goals as quickly as possible. There is nothing mysterious about working with the subconscious mind, modern neuroscience research is supporting this approach. However, it takes a well trained practitioner to guide a client to a successful outcome.
