What an experience! This course, with the Mitchell
Institute of Professional Hypnosis, was well constructed, informative,
and very easily understood. I would definitely recommend this program to
anyone interested in developing skills in hypnotherapy. William Mitchell
is an excellent teacher; very professional, ethical and dedicated. I thank
you for a beautiful start to a wonderful profession!

When I announced to my family and friends that at age 70 I was going
to take a class in hypnotherapy at the Mitchell Institute the responses
varied.
I made the journey to Decatur in the dead of winter to experience the
total awakening of my whole being. Not only did I better learn how
to better help my mental health clients but how I could make the lives
of my friends and family healthier and spiritually enriched.
As I observed and practiced what I had learned I found my life transformed.
Having spent the last four years in great pain as a result of two spinal
surgeries and a brain aneurisim I had lost hope. I listened and found
myself internalizing the post hypnotic suggestions I was hearing and giving
to others.
As a result of this experience I no longer need most of my medications
and feel better than I have in 15 years. I excercise faithfully almost
everyday and eat more healthful foods. I have learned to manage my
stress with a spiritual approach and trance. I look forward to my
return to the mental health service provision and am filled with the images
of the transformations that may occur in others lives.
Thank you William for your contributions not only to me but to those
people whose lives I can greatly improve by practicing the skills I have
learned.

Hi William,
Here's a testimonial for you.
Love and peace, Craig
I went through training for National Guild of Hypnosis certification
with William Mitchell early in 2009.
I have a Ph.D. in curriculum and supervision and have been an administrator
training university
professors to improve their teaching in two universities and a medical
school. William's
approach to training gave me all the skills I needed to feel confident
in my ability to induce
hypnotic trance and to successfully engage in activities such as age
regression, smoking cessation,
pain management, and weight loss. He is a master at teaching
his highly effective, uniquemethods.
The classroom atmosphere was always professional and engaging,
with ample time to ask questions and
explore unique issues in hypnosis of special interest to me.
I would recommend his training to anyone
interested in both becoming certified and knowing techniques that will
result in successful hypnosis sessions.

What a fabulous experience! William Mitchell's hypnosis seminar
was very thorough and informative. William is professional and so
energetic. The seminar has given me a new and exciting service of
therapy to use in my private counseling practice. I recommend William
Mitchell's seminars to anyone interested in learning hypnosis.

I have been interested in hypnosis since my college days when I received
a BA in Psychology. William's class gave me a waelth of knowledge
and practical experience that I had no antcipated, and left me with the
desire and encouragement to learn even more. Pastor Mitchell is genuinely
compassionate towards his students and the people he sees who have the
desire for self-improvement. The Mitchell Institute of Professional
Hypnosis has left me excited and enthusiastic about beginning my own practice.

William, you are terrific! I came with a lot of skepticism about
hypnosis to your seminar. As an ordained Christian minister unless
someone proves what they say I find it hard to believe. But from
day one you proved to me that hypnotism is very spiritual, healing, and
powerful. You have given me a great tool which I can use with everyone
who is in need. Thank you for everything William and may our Good
Lord bless you.

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.

Stage Class
Having taken classes with William Mitchell in the past, I knew for my
Stage Hypnosis training I would receive the utmost in professionalism and
instruction. The class was informative as well as extremely entertaining,
which provided a wonderful atmosphere to learn the material necessary for
creating your own stage hypnosis show. The class was both written and hands
on, allowing each of us an opportuning to really become familiar with developing
skits, technique, delivery, and the overall concepts in stage hypnosis
work. The most unique, and by far rewarding, aspect of William Mitchell's
stage hypnosis class is the intern program. After my initial training,
I accompianied William Mitchell as an assistant in preparation to present
my own show. During this time, I gained the additional skills and confidence
necessary to develop a successful and enjoyable stage hypnosis show. As
part of the stage hypnosis intern program, I was able to perform a solo
show at Winchester High School in Illinois, that left participants and
audience visibly delighted and amazed by the hypnotic phenomenon.
