I have worked with Dr. Mitchell in his excellent hypnosis training program.  I have found him to be highly personable, very supportive of his students, and extremely ethical.

Most importantly, Dr. Mitchell was able to communicate the essential skills of hypnotism and other related areas of clinical knowledge for the students.  Excellent course!

The Mitchell Institute of Professional Hypnosis provided me with the comprehensive tools needed to begin a career in the exciting, ever growing and limitless field of hypnosis. Having been part of a class that was small in size and consisted of students with varied backgrounds further enhanced my learning experience, as each of our individual questions were always answered. The support within this environment was overwhelming as we learned from one another as well as, offering encouragement throughout the certification process. This was especially helpful during the hands on training. Despite that the students credentials ranged from a Doctor of Psychology, Master of Social Work, Marriage Therapist, and those just beginning a career as a Hypnotist, this was an area that was new to all of us and with the extraordinary teaching methods of our instructor William Mitchell, we finished the certification course feeling confident, accomplished, and full of anticipation to use our knowledge we had gained as new hypnotists and hypnotherapists. Taking this course has been a life and career changing experience and I plan to take advance courses in hypnosis at Mitchell Institute of Professional Hypnosis in the future.

I took William Mitchell’s Hypnosis Certification Training course.  Rev. Mitchell gave a very professional, well organized and entertaining course.  I felt thoroughly prepared to begin utilizing the basics of hypnosis in my practice.  I would highly recommend Mitchell Institute’s Hypnosis Certification course to anyone who is interested in the practical application of an exciting field.

Unlike other hypnosis training I've had, during this training we used volunteer subjects off the street{not fellow students or pre-prepared subjects} the results for smoking & weight loss were great & consistent in accordance with the sequence of the steps to hypnotize! Also we were able to hypnotize by ourselves, even when we were not that confident reading from a script "it worked".   We learned that hypnosis "worked" even when we hypnotized subjects the first time with a script and little confidence.

Thank you for providing me with the knowledge and tools to begin the process of becoming a professional hypnotherapist.  Because of your help and direction, I feel confident and ready to use hypnosis in ways that I believe will maximize my effectiveness in helping others.

Your training program offered both the opportunity to learn the basic skills of hypnosis and the chance to apply these skills in a very structured and supportive setting.  It also helped me learn that hypnotism can be part of a process to help an individual make decisions and takes life changing steps that are right for that person.

I would unquestionably recommend your training program to anyone that is ready to begin the process of learning how to use hypnosis to help others.

Before coming to the Mitchell Institute, I was not that familiar with hypnosis. I found it to be a very safe, positive therapy that can be used for a myriad of issues. William Mitchell presented the information in an easy-to-understand way. He made the course interesting and fun. It was great to work with volunteers from the community and see hypnosis at work. I would recommend that anyone who has an interest in hypnosis take Mr. Mitchell's course.

The Mitchell Institute of Professional Hypnosis Certification was
intelligent, energetic, entertaining!

William Mitchell’s introductory course on hypnosis moved quickly, sifted through a lot of material, and endowed me with a working understanding of hypnotic processes.  I especially appreciated his hands on approach, guiding us as we worked with real people dealing with real issues.

I recommend William Mitchell’s clinical training in hypnosis.
