Dr. Fredrick Woodard is a clinical psychologist and certified hypnotherapist who conducts original research on the supernatural/paranormal, hypnosis, and psychotherapy. His research stems from his dissatisfaction with general psychological explanations of hypnosis and altered states, which have not reflected his own personal and clinical experience.
He has used his approach to developing enhanced awareness in his clinical practice, with well-adjusted individuals seeking to explore and expand their human potential and achieve self-growth.
Dr. Woodard is a direct great-grandson of Chief Madockawando, a grand sachem of the Abenaki nation in the 1600s. He is also a descendant of Charlemagne and a distant cousin of Alanis Morissette, Celine Dion, Ernest Hemingway, and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Like those of his ancestors who demonstrated creative thinking or fought for individual freedoms and rights, Dr. Woodard emphasizes freedom of thought in his writings, as he has devoted himself to examining subjective experiences in supernatural awareness and altered states of consciousness.
