A Personal Message from Bernice and Jonas Werzberger, the Directors of Beacon Associates, Inc.

For over twenty-five years, we have developed training materials, given presentations, led workshops, worked with individual clients and consulted in business and industry. We are both Certified Instructors and Practitioners of PSYCH-K^® & PER-K^®. Additionally, we are trained and experienced in the areas of communication & motivation, management training, stress reduction, wellness, meditation, multi-faceted concentration, guided imagery, general hypnotherapy, hypnosis for regression and accelerated learning. Jonas holds a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology. Bernice is a graduate of Queens College and is certified in Hypnosis for Childbirth and in Neuro-Linguistic Programming.

We are trained and Certified by Robert M. Williams, M.A., the originator of PSYCH-K^® and a leader and pioneer in his field. In addition to this certification in the exciting area of belief change, we have studied with such outstanding teachers as Dr. Carl & Stephanie Simonton and Dr. Brian Weiss. We are certified by Dr. Weiss in Hypnotic Regression and by Dr. Barry Seedman in hypnotherapy. Our areas of special focus include motivation, weight loss and maintenance, the elimination of negative habits, health and wellness, pain reduction, sports and accelerated learning.

As part of our ongoing education, we attended a presentation at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Atlanta, Ga. by a world renowned cutting-edge cellular biologist, Dr. Bruce Lipton. His topic was "The Biology of Belief." We have a special interest in the relationship between science and consciousness and were fascinated by Dr. Lipton's scientific explanation of the relationship between a person's beliefs and their physical and mental health. Dr. Lipton ended his presentation by explaining what he caned the "bad news and the good news."

The bad news was that most people's subconscious beliefs are set by the age of five or so and although these beliefs are often false, negative and/or non-generative, they are very resistant to change. Dr. Lipton further explained that both traditional and many alternative modalities don't have a high percentage of success in this area because it is necessary to use "whole-brain" methods to successfully effect long-lasting belief change. The good news was that there are some modalities that are effective.

Dr. Lipton ended by saying that the very best belief change technique that he knew was called PSYCH-K^® and then he turned the program over to a PSYCH-K^® Instructor. After choosing a volunteer from the audience, the Instructor demonstrated a short PSYCH-K^® Belief Change Process that took about eight minutes. Upon seeing the rapid and powerful results of this Process, we immediately decided to study PSYCH-K^®.

Eventually we were certified as PSYCH-K^® & PER-K^® Instructors and Practitioners. When we incorporated these remarkably effective "technologies" for change into our practice, we were thrilled to see the results that PSYCH-K^® and PER-K^® made in our clients' lives. Both personally and professionally, PSYCH-K^® & PER-K^® have proven to be premiere, cutting-edge tools. They supply the "missing ingredient" of effective belief change to the "recipe" for safe, rapid and long-lasting personal transformation.

Because outstanding tools such as these act as shining lights that guide the way to effective personal change, we named our business Beacon Associates. It is both a privilege and an honor to offer the best transformational techniques available to the clients whom we serve through workshops, trainings and private sessions.
