Yvonne Smith
Yvonne became concerned with victims of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder ["PTSD"] in the late 1980s, and in 1990 [after 2 years of studies and 1000 hours of internship] received her certification from the California Hypnosis Motivation Institute [the only such accredited institution in the United States}.
She immediately began to work with PTSD victims, assisting them and encouraging them to work through and cope with their PTSD.
[Many of her subjects are referred to her by physicians and psychologists who believe Yvonne's expertise can benefit their patients.]
Observing that many of her subjects were describing a pattern of alien abduction and other close encounter experiences, in 1991 Yvonne founded CERO [Close Encounter Resource Organization] which provides personal attention and maintains active monthly support group meetings where PTSD victims share their thoughts and feelings about their unusual experiences.
While maintaining personal contact with her subjects, since 1991 Yvonne extensively co-lectured with Harvard's John Mack, M.D., Budd Hopkins, and David Jacobs, Ph.D., in the United States at M.I.T and several other universities...and also at many conferences [ as annually at the Roswell Celebration].

Having her living room turned into a television "studio" for many hours has been a common occurrence.
While lecturing as a repeat guest at a government sponsored conference in San Marino, Italy, she was interviewed on Italian television for broadcast both in Italy and other European countries. Many well known radio hosts (such as Art Bell, Paul Harvey, Dr. David Viscott, Jerry Pippen and Sweeps/Radio Ireland) have had Yvonne as their program guest.depositrapidshareYvonne Smith has appeared on foreign T.V. which include Telemundo T.V., and Jaime Maussan Productions, Germany T.V., Australian, Itallian and Canadian, In addition to her many t.v. interviews, Yvonne with her PTSD support participated in a Disney movie, Alien Encounters (1995)..
