What they say about our
Personal Transformation service…
Perspectives on training, mentoring, mental health, personal growth, chronic illness, and hypnosis.
Dr. Ricardo De La Espriella
Psychiatrist, Clínica La Inmaculada

Bogotá – Colombia
As a psychiatrist and epidemiologist, it is an honor to work with colleagues like Armando, with whom I’ve shared research spaces, case studies, patient referrals, and consultations.
I want to highlight his recognized talent in working with people in critical or hopeless health situations. Through the use of psychoneuroimmunology and the application of hypnotherapy, relaxation, and/or neuroplasticity techniques, he has made important contributions to coping mechanisms for complex human conditions.

From my very first conversation with Dr. Matiz, I felt transformed. He begins his teachings with his very presence—his way, his words, his energy. He reflects transformation, motivation, and connectivity in his own life, and witnessing this strengthens those qualities within oneself.
As his student, I have learned to cultivate optimism and energy around the awareness of my abilities. The simple words he once shared with me—“You have it all”—remain engraved in my memory and have helped me overcome many of my goals.

I recommend these courses and this methodology whenever reflection, training, inclusion of new knowledge, and rethinking of attitudes are needed. When processes connect rational intelligence with emotional intelligence, we work on the same goals but from different perspectives of life.

When I met Professor Armando Matiz, I immediately identified with his work and his teaching of hypnosis. He works and teaches hypnosis to bring better quality of life to people facing difficult life situations, offering relief for both physical and emotional suffering.
I truly want to continue learning and specializing with him, because I feel that through this path I can bring concrete solutions of relief and peace to others, while also finding fulfillment in my future work.

Pole Dance Instructor
Director, Pole Studio
Santo Domingo – Dominican Republic
Armando Matiz was the first person who helped me believe in myself and understand that anything you can dream, you can achieve. He taught me that the subconscious doesn’t understand the word NO, and many times we unknowingly self-sabotage when we use it, even while seeking the opposite.
Neuroplasticity, and how it can be applied to pole dancing or any other high-intensity sport, is one of the most important things an athlete can learn in their career. It is vital not only for achieving our dreams, but also for reaching things we never imagined possible with our bodies and in our lives.
Thank you, Dr. Matiz, for being my guide in this process of change and flourishing.

Clinical Hypnosis
Miami – Florida
Hypnosis is a useful tool to support various medical procedures and can reduce the duration of psychological therapy. Thanks to Dr. Armando Matiz’s unique and scientific techniques, I have gained a better understanding of the application of Clinical Hypnosis.
His dedication and passion for the scientific study of neuroplasticity make our practice sessions as students much more effective.
Thank you, Dr. Matiz, for generously sharing your knowledge.

Infinite gratitude, Dr. Armando, for sharing your knowledge. As my teacher, you guided me in “teletransportation”—I traveled back to the past of my diamond-emotions to learn how to use this anchoring technique! I understood the quantum power of that magical instant, using it as my master key to empower myself and reconnect with my inner strength as the owner of my existence!
It was cosmic to learn about metaphors, the beauty of creating healing stories, entering the unconscious, reclaiming my resources, unveiling the gold of truth, and the light of understanding, all to achieve my best version!
