Training on the life-changing power of hypnosis
Many people want to be able to say they can change other people’s lives and help them improve at least one aspect of it. But, to do it successfully, tools are needed—and Mind Matters Hypnosis can help you learn what those tools are and how to use them. Here’s a secret: you already have them within yourself.
We offer a 100-hour Basic or Advanced Hypnosis Certification Course. It provides training on the life-changing power of hypnosis.
You will become a Certified Consulting Hypnotist with the National Guild of Hypnosis.
This course is a combination of eight full days of remote training, plus home and group study/practice.
This training will NOT BE RECORDED. It is conducted in the “active learning” technique, with the group engaging in various discussions and exercises. Therefore attendance online in real-time is required.
Hands-on learning on hypnosis
In this course, there is as much hands-on learning as book learning. The practical applications and text learning will ingrain the process and allow for a much deeper understanding of the material.
You will leave the course with a solid foundation on which to build a new career or expand your current career and the confidence to begin applying all you’ve learned with others.
This course is taught by Mind Matters Hypnosis Center – a thriving practice, with several locations, built primarily on client and health practitioner referrals.
Everything learned in this course has been developed through thousands of hours of training and working with clients. Our years of experience deliver consistently high levels of success to clients who are dealing with a range of issues, this training is designed to equip you to do the same.

Trainer Calypso Portugaels
Calypso discovered hypnosis first as a client, in fact, a skeptical one. It took 2 sessions to make her a believer. Then a 3rd one to make her realize she had come across a life- changing tool.
Today, it is her honor to be able to guide people toward the potential of true trance-formation.
From her work as a yoga and meditation teacher, Calypso has witnessed the vast power of the mind-body connection. And she’s learned to normalize practices that could seem a little esoteric or inaccessible.
She has studied around the world, letting her travels guide her toward a deeper understanding of the human condition.
Calypso believes that all you need to make deep, lasting change is a seed or an intention. With patience, kindness and always with humor, she will define with you the best way to work as a team toward your goal.
For you, she will hold a space that is judgment-free and safe. And she’ll do all of that with a French accent!
Co-Trainer David Chandler
David’s career in the healing arts began more than 40 years ago when he took his first Tai Chi class at the University of Utah as a means to help manage his own sports related back injury.
His career as a professional actor brought him to the East coast, where he continued his studies and began to teach Tai Chi in NYC. Eventually David moved to Connecticut where he founded Eagle’s Quest Tai Chi Center and began a career teaching Tai Chi and Qigong.
In 2012 David earned a Master’s degree in Integrative Health and Healing from The Graduate Institute where he studied a broad spectrum of healing modalities.
As part of his graduate program, David trained with Lisa Zaccheo of Mind Matter’s Hypnosis and received his Hypnosis Certification through the National Guild of Hypnotists. He has since, continued his training by attending advanced trainings and conferences relating to hypnosis.
It was obvious to David and to those he worked with, that hypnosis was a perfect fit for him.
Physicians began to refer medically complex patients to David when their conventional treatment was not effective. He began working with clients who were recovering from stroke and watched as they experienced success that stemmed from their subconscious.
Over the years, David has used his unique combination of skills to successfully help people of all ages. He has experience working with a variety of issues, including a variety of physical and emotional challenges. Over the years, David has successfully helped hundreds of people wanting to be free of blocks in their lives including anxiety, sleep issues, phobias, fears, all types of addictions and habits, illness with an unknown origin, pain, asthma and more.
In 2018 David expanded his skills and became a Certified Hypnosis Instructor through the National Guild of Hypnotists. If you are interested in advancing your career or would like to learn hypnosis for your own personal use, David promises an enriching and fun experience as you train to become a Certified Hypnoist.
