Board Certified Hypnotist / Author
Todd Goodwin is one of the few hypnotists (1 in 500) to earn the title of Board Certified Fellow by the National Guild of Hypnotists. He is also a certified Master Practitioner of neurolinguistic programming (NLP). He earned a bachelor’s degree in behavioral science in 1996 and a master’s degree in nutrition and health promotion in 1999. Since opening Goodwin Hypnosis (formerly the Miami Hypnosis Center) in 2007, Todd has helped thousands to resolve a range of personal challenges. Since 2020, Goodwin Hypnosis has been a Zoom-based practice, serving clients from any location.
Todd sees clients 1-on-1 primarily to resolve trauma and its effects, including stress, anxiety, fears, panic, low self-worth, and unwanted behaviors. His strategy is to identify and resolve the underlying causes of these personal issues, instead of merely addressing symptoms. Clients and health professionals describe his methods as faster than talk therapy, easier than willpower, and safer than medication.
Todd has been trained by several experts in human behavior, including Dr. John Demartini, developer of the transformational Demartini Method. As part of his rapid change work with clients, he also uses the Rewind Technique and Integral Eye Movement Therapy, two fast, powerful, and versatile alternatives to EMDR. Todd works with his wife, Gina (also a Board Certified Hypnotist), who uses the same methods to help clients facing similar challenges.
Todd has presented to physicians and medical staff at Baptist Health and Jackson Health System, and to University of Miami medical students. He has held workshops at Canyon Ranch, the International Employee Assistance Professionals Association, and Miami-Dade County’s health and fire departments. He has also been interviewed and featured by various media outlets, including the Miami Herald, Telemundo, and local radio programs. He has taught hypnosis certification courses, hosted a radio program called the Inspiring Minds Show and co-hosted an educational podcast. He is currently a member of both the Academy of Integrative Health & Medicine and the Vagus Nerve Society.
Todd is also the author of the book, "Break the Chains of Smoking: How to Escape the Mental and Emotional Prison That Keeps You Addicted," and creator of its accompanying 30-day hypnosis system.
