What makes AAIT™ different

Resolution at the root cause

Resolution at the root, not symptom management.

Most therapeutic models focus on insight and symptom management. AAIT™ resolves issues at their root cause by helping clients integrate opposing psychological states, thoughts, images, emotions, and sensations that have not been fully processed.

This integration frees them from persistent pain and reactivity, often leading to a state of calm awareness and lasting peace, sometimes within a single session.

AAIT™ blends insights from

  • Ericksonian Hypnosis
  • Re-decision Therapy
  • Self-Acceptance Training
  • Non-Dual Philosophy
  • Energy Psychology

All woven into a cohesive, proven model of care.

What practitioners say

In their words

"I'm actually certified as a trauma focused CBT therapist because I did a lot of work with kids, and I have other trainings. None of my little techniques could decrease, so quickly, that strong emotional response the way AAIT™ does."

Jaime Krone, LCSW
"I am stunned by the nature of this change in myself. A sense of excitement arises inside me like never before, as I feel hopeful for myself and my clients when I realized that AAIT™ is truly a way to alleviate the pain and suffering."
