Yvonne Smith, who is a Certified Hypnotherapist, began researching the UFO phenomenon in the late 1980s. In 1990 [after 2 years of studies and 1000 hours of internship], she received her Hypnotherapy certification from the California Hypnosis Motivation Institute, the first hypnosis college in the United States to be accredited.

Specializing in cases of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in 1992, she expanded her practice to include abductees, assisting them and encouraging them to work through and cope with post traumatic stress disorder. Many of her subjects are referred to her by physicians and psychiatrists who believe Smith's expertise can benefit their patients. In fact, many such patients are themselves doctors, university professors, engineers and other professionals.

As the foremost female hypnotherapist in this field, Smith has had many opportunities to lecture and be a panel-member with well-known colleagues, UFO researchers, writers and speakers such as the late Budd Hopkins, Dr. Roger Leir, David Jacobs, Stanton Friedman, Jesse Marcel, Jr., M.D., Paola Harris, John Carpenter, the late Dr. John Mack, George Noory, Whitley Strieber, Robert Dean, Jaime Maussan, John Miller, M.D., Steve Bassett, Linda Howe and Michael Lindemann. She also enjoyed a conference with former U.S. Apollo astronaut, Edgar Mitchell and Travis Walton.

Smith is the author of CHOSEN: Recollections of UFO Abductions Through Hypnotherapy which made its recent debut at the International UFO Congress in Lauglin, Nevada, United States . CHOSEN exposes, with dramatic regressive hypnotherapy transcripts, the reality of the trauma suffered by abductees. CHOSEN is now in its second printing.

Smith, with the late Budd Hopkins, is the subject of a DVD, Alien Hybrids & Clinical Hypnotherapy, which is volume 1 from the Secrets of the Underground series.
