Recognized By
You've tried to learn hypnosis before. It didn't stick.
Maybe you bought the books. Watched the YouTube gurus. Even took a course or two.
But when it came time to actually hypnotize someone, you froze. Second-guessed every word. Couldn't find the confidence. So you went back to studying.
More theory.
More videos.
More "I'll be ready soon."
And somewhere along the way, you started wondering if maybe you just weren't cut out for this.
Here's the truth: the problem was never you. It was the method.
Scripts that don't teach you why they work. Courses that cost $10,000 and leave you more confused than confident. Teachers who act like hypnosis is reserved for people with PhDs and decades of experience.
No wonder it didn't stick.
The most common thing we hear from students? "I wish I found you guys first."
You're not late. You're exactly on time.
The Mandel Method™
Most hypnosis training gives you scripts to memorize and hope for the best. The Mandel Method is different. It's a principle-based system — once you understand why hypnosis works, you can make it work with your own words, your own style, every time.
Built on three core principles:
Principle #1
Attention
Capture and direct the conscious mind — so you have full rapport before you begin.
Principle # 2
Expectation
Create the conditions where success becomes inevitable — before you say a word.
Principle # 3
Imagination
Engage the unconscious mind — where real change happens.
These principles are simple. But knowing them isn't enough — you need to use them. Inside the Academy, we've built everything around putting The Mandel Method into practice:
Direct Hypnosis
Indirect Hypnosis
Practical NLP
Live Practice
Real-World Adaptability
This isn't theory you'll forget next week. It's a skillset you'll own for life.
This works. Here's proof.
I’m a complete newbie, but over the last few years my interest has grown to the point where I’m planning a career change from construction and heavy machinery into hypnosis/hypnotherapy. Your training style and video structure are excellent—bite-sized and easy to follow. The online academy is a no-brainer for beginners; it’s very approachable and non-intimidating to learn and practice.
Andrew Posterino
Started from Zero
"I am finishing up a year long hypnosis course that has cost me over $10k. The whole way through I didn’t feel quite aligned or even that I was truly learning anything but stuck with it because of the $10k I’d already spent. 2 days ago I signed up and I have learned SO much more in the last 2 days than I have in the past year."
Erika Chinich
Trained elsewhere first
“I was already trained and certified in hypnotherapy, but it wasn’t my go-to. After a patient told me I was missing half its power, I found MMHA. The training completely changed my practice. I began using hypnotherapy with 90% of my clients and saw remarkable results. What once felt limited finally clicked and transformed my career.”
Dr. Matthew Pulling
Finally clicked
“I struggled with inductions that never worked. Just five lessons into MMHA, I wrote my own induction using the protocol taught and successfully hypnotized someone I’d already failed with twice. Seeing someone go under that quickly was incredible—and it gave me instant confidence that this really works.”
Rebecca Koffman
Quick Wins
“I thought the practice rooms would just be a place to rehearse. Instead, they became a game-changer. Practicing live, seeing others’ thought processes, and learning in real time built my confidence and strengthened my fundamentals. The support and guidance went far beyond videos—it felt like being part of something truly collaborative.”
Chris Lee
Practice room fan
“Since joining MMHA, I’ve worked with paying clients in over 200 sessions and continue learning with every one. The techniques—especially Mindscapes and Ego State work—give me a complete toolbox so I’m never at a loss with clients. MMHA gave me the foundation and confidence to build real clinical experience.”

Practice Rooms: Where It Actually Clicks
This isn't "watch and hope." It's real hypnosis, with real people, from your first week.
Live sessions every week
Facilitated by trained guides
Newbie friendly to advanced level
Practice kits for every lesson

Most courses leave you alone with theory. We put you in the room.
Every week, we run 11 facilitated practice sessions — guided by trained facilitators who keep things structured and supportive. Whether you're brand new or putting advanced pieces together, there's a session for where you are.
Each session uses a practice kit matched to your curriculum — so you're not just "trying stuff," you're building skill systematically.
And when the scheduled sessions don't fit? Our practice rooms are open 24/7 for peer practice on your own time.
This is why MMHA students build confidence fast — they're not just learning, they're doing.

What You'll Receive
Who Is Mike Mandel?
Mike discovered hypnosis at 12 years old — and immediately stuck a pin through his neighbor's finger to test it. No pain. It worked. He's been obsessed ever since.
For 43 years, he performed as a mentalist and stage hypnotist across Canada — touring with rock bands, headlining theaters, and building a reputation as one of the country's top performers. He retired from the stage in 2018.
But performance was only half the story. Mike became a forensic hypnotist, working with law enforcement on armed robberies, sexual assaults, and murder cases. He performed over 100 times at the Ontario Police College and trained investigators for the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice and New York State Troopers.
He also ran a private therapy practice in Toronto — no advertising, just referrals. More clients than he could handle. That's when he realized: he loved teaching hypnosis even more than doing it.
The MMHA curriculum? Mike designed it himself. It's not theory borrowed from textbooks. It's a system built from 50+ years of actually doing this work — on stages, in therapy rooms, and in police interview rooms.
