This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.
Boy- Even after probably after many refunds and complaints, she keeps trying. But If you have made a life thinking you are something you are not, well you might start to believe it.
Bunny Vreeland is a major fraud and jokester! Her diluted self image regarding her MA from Hogwarts and her Ph.D from the University of Quackery in the County of Oz & the valley of the Jolly "Ho ho ho" green giant. Bunny Vreeland is nothing but a common carnival barker ala Colonel Tom Parker. Her three favorite clients that she's treating for insomnia, IBS & smoking cessation, are Kellogs' famous trio "Snack, Krackel & Pop." Bunny couldn't help her 500 lb daughter with her weight loss who ultimately had gastric bypass surgery, nor her homeless meth addicted grandson. Bunny's services are bull. Her credentials are being investigated by John Stossel. Bunny Vreeland takes advantage of the old and feeble minded. ALL STEER CLEAR OF HER!

I bought from her and I never got my C.D and when I got it, it was scratched. NOW I read and then checked the links. She is not even a DR- BEWARE! Check it out for your self google it and check it out on this site. Her local BBB supports her because she pays them, or they do not know yet.
In an article Deception and the Internet I read"...Another shady but increasingly commonplace promotional tactic finds therapists referring to themselves as ‘authors’ on the basis of articles published in blogs and self-published books featured on their practice websites...'
This reminds me of all of the articles Dr Bunny Vreeland has done.
The author continues"... To create a false impression of greater professional stature and accomplishment, such a therapist might refer to himself as ‘Psychotherapist and Author’John D. Seaver, M.S., B.S. The digital revolution makes it possible for anyone to self-publish for a few hundred dollars. This brings a listing on Amazon, along with book reviews from sources that cannot be verified. I have seen many instances of this shady tactic used to promote the psychotherapy practices of therapists who are, at best, minimally qualified to legally engage in practice. In many cases, not more than a handful of books may have been sold to family members and patients who felt obligated to purchase a copy.
Padded vitae or résumés are also commonplace, with therapists piling on credentials and certifications gained in weekend seminars and workshops, as if these credentials offset the deficiencies associated with having opted for the quick and easy route to hanging out a shingle. My experience has been that the vast majority of these training seminars and workshops range from banal and clinically questionable at best, to outlandish quackery at their worst. Not only do these workshops fail to remediate the weaknesses of an insubstantial training foundation, they also create armies of psychotherapists who believe that some charismatic quack has provided them with the keys to therapeutic and marketing Nirvana.
Legitimate academic conferences for scholars and clinicians to present and discuss their work certainly do exist and these conferences can be helpful to the serious clinician. These conferences do not offer padding for the attendees’ vitae, and they don’t provide meaningless certifications to impress patients..." More to follow.

One well known and qualified psychotherapist with twice the usual training. He possess a masters degree and a license in marriage and family therapy, a doctoral degree and license in clinical psychology, and have been doing psychotherapy since 1996. He state’s since “hypnotherapy is a type of therapy, a truly qualified “hypnotherapist” should also be a highly trained, licensed, and experienced therapist for the best results. If not, move on and keep searching!..” In fact, he continues, “…when deciding upon a professional for hypnosis products (or live office sessions), the first question to always ask is, “is this person a licensed, graduate-level psychotherapist?” Such official, graduate-level licenses include the clinical psychologist, marriage and family therapist, or clinical social work licenses. If a hypnotist does not possess one of these (or a comparable) therapy license, he wouldn’t recommend
Consumer Beware. -(check and see if Bunny is a member of any of the below)
The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH), the largest national organization of licensed health professionals who use hypnosis, advises on its official Web site (http://www.asch.net) that, just as in choosing any health professional, you exercise care in selecting a clinical hypnosis practitioner. Unfortunately, the practice of hypnosis is not regulated by most states as is the practice of other healing arts. Therefore, in most states, clinicians and therapists who use hypnosis are not licensed in hypnosis. The implications of this are that anyone can call themselves a “certified hypnotherapist,” or “clinical hypnotist,” and hang out a shingle.
Beware of quacks.
Screening a Practitioner’s Qualifications. Careful questioning on the telephone can help you avoid falling into the hands of unscrupulous persons who engage in fraudulent or unethical practices.
First, ask the person what his or her primary health-care field is. If the person answers that it is hypnosis or hypnotherapy, the person is a “lay hypnotist.”
If the person states that it is medicine, dentistry, psychiatry, psychology, clinical social work, or nursing, ask if he or she is licensed in his or her field by the state. If the person is not licensed by the state, he or she probably lacks the education required for licensure or has lost his or her license.
Find out what the person’s degree is in. If the person states that it is in hypnosis or hypnotherapy, as opposed to a state-regulated health-care profession, the person is a “lay hypnotist.”
If the person is licensed in one of the above health-care fields, check for membership in the major professional organization for their field (for instance, the American Medical Association, American Dental Association, American Psychological Association, National Association of Social Workers, etc.).
Also, check for membership in the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis or the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis. These are the only nationally recognized organizations in the United States for licensed health-care professionals using hypnosis. If you have doubts about the person’s qualifications, keep looking.
There is properly no health professional who is just a “hypnotist” or “hypnotherapist.” This would be analogous to there being a health professional called a “scalpelist.” Obviously, that would be absurd. A surgeon’s scalpel is only a tool, and the use of the scalpel by itself is certainly not treatment! So, there is no valid health-care professional called a “scalpelist.” Your best bet in choosing a hypnosis practitioner is to choose:
a. Someone you feel comfortable with, and
b. Someone who is a licensed health professional and who has appropriate training and experience in the use of hypnosis in his or her specific health care profession.
National Hypnosis Societies
There are two major national hypnosis societies whose membership is restricted to state licensed health-care professionals with appropriate training and experience in hypnosis.
The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH). This is the largest national professional association of licensed health-care and mental-health professionals who utilize hypnosis in treating a wide range of medical, dental, and psychological conditions. Membership in ASCH is limited to clinicians who meet all of their state’s statutory licensure or certification requirements for their particular health-care profession. Those requirements vary for each state but are based on similar standards of appropriate formal education, specialized training, examinations, and supervised experience.
The Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis (SCEH). This is the other major national hypnosis organization. Both ASCH and SCEH publish well-regarded, peer reviewed journals and provide training for health-care professionals and students. For full membership in both societies, one must have an appropriate advanced academic degree in one’s profession as described above. In addition, a member must have a requisite number of hours of training in hypnosis provided by an approved provider of such training. A period of documented, supervised experience in the applications of hypnosis is also required, as is documented continuing education that is updated and checked every two to three years.
