The Art of Seeing
Apprenticeship-Style Learning
In 2025, I am offering a full-breadth course in The Art of Seeing to a small group of up to 12 people.
Learn to see yourself and others so much more clearly, and feel you have a better understanding of life.
“This training was out of this world, Yael, is soo knowledgeable and wise, I have changed so much since meeting Yael, she is the kindest soul, with a huge heart, she knows exactly what to do and say and you leave every session having had the most profound shifts, I know I will continue working with her as long as I can.”
Ben Eden, November 2024
Have you ever had an experience of being seen, in a way that touched you to your core?
Imagine what that feels like to be seen in this way. Without saying much at all. Without making an effort. Without explaining what you yourself don’t even know.
Over the years I’ve been asked if I have special abilities, perhaps ‘supernatural’. I reply that I don’t officially know if I do, but I have been asked this question before.
People tend to ask me this question right after experiencing being seen, deeply to their core.
Call it magic or not, being seen can feel like magic.
My dad was a doctor. He saw he couldn’t help people with only what he had learned at medical school. He used to quote Ibn Sina, a physician from the 11th century, known as the father of early modern medicine: “There are three cures: plant, knife, and word”.
Being a doctor, my dad already healed with plant and knife. To heal with words, he became a hypnotherapist and an NLP therapist.
When my brother and I became young adults my father facilitated a few workshops to pass onto us some of what he’s learnt over the decades. He invited others to join and learn and practice together. Now I am a psychotherapist and my brother is a doctor.
Now, my daughter is a young adult. She’s a university student, studying psychology. It’s time I pass onto her and others what is not taught at any university.
The Art of Seeing Training is about learning what you cannot learn at university, in the realm of human experience.
As wonderful and accessible as it can be, there is just so much we can get from looking at an online world with online webinars, podcasts and online social connections.
The Art of Seeing full-breadth training is a rare opportunity to engage in in-person, in-depth, apprenticeship-style learning, emerging from the fields of psychotherapy and self-growth.
This rare opportunity may only be offered in 2025.
The training can be applied to any field of life, as it will take us to wherever each of the 12 participants of the 2025 group will be at.
28 in-person training days of immersion in seeing ourselves and others, throughout a year.
In apprenticeship-style learning you will be able to see therapy done unedited, in real time, “live” and in-person, with all its flaws and all its magic. You will see unedited and in “live” real time how people’s pain and people’s beauty is seen and how healing is facilitated.
You will learn the questions to ask and how to ask them for any situation that is of interest to you.
You will learn the words to use and how to use them in ways that will be effective for any area of life that is important to you.
You will have an opportunity to ask so many questions throughout this year, about anything that is interesting to you.
In this apprenticeship-style learning you yourself will practice many many skills and hidden abilities over a whole year.
By the end of 2025, you will have a wealth of experience and knowledge that can only be obtained in in-person, in-depth, apprenticeship-style training. This experience and knowledge will come naturally to you to use in your personal and professional life, as well as in different kinds of relationships.
Often during my sessions people say “I never thought of it this way before”.
The Art of Seeing training is about learning to see another human being in a way they haven’t seen before. This facilitates healing and change.
The training will also include some important themes and techniques from Systemic Family Constellations, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and hypnotherapy.
The training is not intended to certify in any specific modality. Rather it is intended to help you see, deeply, beyond any modality.
Would you like to know how to see people to their core within minutes? Would you like to do that without them having to explain, without having to think, but from a place of flow?

About the trainer Yael Reiss

In addition to Yael’s three decades of seeing people, her academic degrees and the many many Family Constellations workshops she has facilitated, Yael is a highly experienced trainer. Yael led one of the top NLP training canters in her country of origin. She is reputed as a trainer who is extremely professional and structured, as well as fun and engaging. Her trainings are also well known for their high safety standards. In her training, Yael draws from her wide experience gained in her busy private practice and from her therapeutic work as a social worker. Having a lively energetic training style, she keeps her audience engaged and brings stories anecdotes, as well as examples from her most interesting cases. Yael has certified many professionals in the field of NLP, Practitioner and Master Practitioner levels, as well as conduct Ericksonian approach workshops. Among her graduates and clients there are psychologists, social workers, nurses and doctors, as well as experienced practitioners of NLP and hypnotherapy. (Click here for testimonials). Yael also conducted workshops for professional hypnotherapists around Australia.
As a group facilitator in Family Constellations workshops Yael is described by participants as a “gentle, strong and insightful facilitator. A skilled and loving facilitator that holds the space for the participants, and gently sensing in to what is needed for them to move forward”.
On a personal note: I’ve created this training because I am a trainer and LOVE teaching. I call it being an edutainer. I love it when people come and have profound experiences, have fun, and learn so much. This kind of learning and teaching isn’t just fun and effortless, it also sinks deep inside, into different levels of our being. With this kind of learning, you don’t have to memorise a thing, or think and plan. Instead, you will find yourself in a state of flow in life and when you work with people. In this state of flow everything that you’ve learned by experience and having fun just comes and does the job through you.
Of course, a nice ‘side effect’ of such training is the healing we often get by looking into our own issues and being SEEN during the exercises and the questions we ask in the training.
I look forward to The Art of Seeing training, to share and to inspire you to taste the effects of words and other communications in a way that helps you SEE.
I warmly welcome you to the training and look forward to going through these special experiences together.

Ben Eden, November 2024“The most helpful things in the training were the practical tools and techniques given to be able to see myself so deeply. This wasn’t theory alone, it was powerful knowledge that I can use in every moment of everyday to support myself and others… the level of theory and practical was perfect for me, I don’t often say this as I can struggle on trainings, here I didn’t at all.”
B. November 2024“This course speaks my language. Everything is energy and Yael thank you for sharing your knowledge and taking me deeper. You are magic.
There are so many ‘aha’ deep connecting moments in this course. Every time I went to the course something shifted, healed and I grew.”
A. November 2024“The training with Yael was absolutely fantastic! I learned so much about my inner child and the patterns of my adult life all stems from childhood patterns. Thank you so much.”

Training FAQ:
Question: Why the course is on a weekday:
What are weekends for? Or: Why did God create weekends?
My answer to the above question: Weekends are for: Catching up with sleep, loved ones, reading books and hobbies.
Many modern people’s unconscious answer, the answer that comes through their behaviour: Weekends are for catching up with all the work, shopping, duties, studying etc.
I have to walk my talk with integrity and that means the training will be held on weekdays.
Question: Why is the course held on a “half day” 9am-1pm and not a “full day” (until 4pm)? Why is the course in the morning and not in the evening?
Answer: From my experience both as a trainer and facilitator of workshops as well as a participant in workshops: after lunch not much more can be genuinely taken in. Longer “full” day is just cramping and overloading. A four hours with a morning start, such as 9am-1pm, is when I myself can give you the most. It is also when most people can receive the most out of trainings.
Again, the same as in my answer to why I choose to not have the course on weekends, I feel evenings are for resting, processing and connecting with loved ones.
