Chosen: From the Alien Hybrid Program to the Fate of the Planet

Certified Hypnotherapist, Yvonne Smith, after specializing in work with PTSD in the

early 1990s, observed through hypnotherapy what many of her subjects described as a

pattern of Alien Abduction or other Close Encounter experiences. Yvonne founded

Close Encounter Resource Organization (CERO) in 1992, which conducts monthly

meetings to this day.

Yvonne's many television appearances have included programs such as The History Channel, MSNBC, The Discovery Channel, Encounters, Sightings, The Joan Rivers Show, Roseanne Barr and The Leeza Show. In addition, well known radio hosts, Art Bell, Paul Harvey, Dr. David Viscott, George Noory have all had Yvonne as their special guest.
