My Philosophy & Approach

My Mission: Practical, Effective, and Continual Learning in Hypnotherapy.

Michigan Hypnosis Institute’s approach centers on practical and continuous learning. With our certification in hypnotherapy, EFT, and NLP, we prioritize methods that work in real-world settings. Our programs are structured to give students both foundational skills and adaptable techniques that build confidence and mastery.

Since 2014, MHI’s founder has been dedicated to learning and integrating the most effective techniques from top trainers and methods worldwide. Here, you’re not only learning the "how" of hypnotherapy, NLP, and EFT, you’re taught to adapt to each unique client and situation, focusing on practical, hands-on skills and principles.

  • Practical Adaptability: Craft sessions that flow naturally, responding to each client’s needs.

  • Continuous Support: Access to an ongoing support group and mentorship even after training.

  • A Clear, Simplified Approach: Learn what truly works without the fluff or overwhelm.
