A letter a wrote to Civil Rights Department of California…read moreHuman resources of San Francisco and The supervisor of Mission Council San Francisco Louis, I am submitting a complaint regarding discrimination and misconduct I experienced during a DUI/recovery class with Mission Council on September 22nd 2025, Monday. The class was scheduled from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Around 3:15, I was disconnected from Zoom due to poor signal. After waiting in the lobby and not being admitted back in, I called the office twice for assistance. The second time, the office staff contacted Mr. Ennis Johnson, who eventually let me back into the class. Once I rejoined, Mr. Johnson began reprimanding me, saying I should not call the office and should "just wait in the lobby." I explained that this program is critical for my freedom and I was worried about losing credit for the session. Instead of addressing this, Mr. Johnson became combative and dismissive. He told me not to tell him what to do and stated, "I don't have the DUI, you do." He then made racist and derogatory remarks, calling me "ghetto" and incorrectly labeling me as "Hawaiian" (I am Samoan). These comments were discriminatory, humiliating, and completely inappropriate, especially in a mandated recovery program setting. Mr. Johnson continued to press me until I placed myself on mute. He eventually muted me himself, told me to "go ahead and report [him]," and then disconnected me from the class, this took place in front of 10 other participants on zoom. After this, I contacted the office again and spoke with Supervisor Roberto Alfaro, who directed me to Executive Director Luis Aguirre. While Mr. Alfaro told me I would receive credit for the class, no information was given on how Mission Council would handle this complaint or prevent such discriminatory treatment from happening again. I am requesting a formal investigation into Mr. Johnson's conduct, confirmation that my class credit is protected, and assurance that no participant will be subjected to discriminatory remarks in the future. Thank you for your time and attention to this serious matter. Sincerely

I'm currently finishing up my 3 month program for first time offenders…read more 5 stars for Keith! "Yes indeedy!" "Before ya do the clapping, ya betta get to know them first" Here are some rules to live by in education class (once per week): 1. Know your exits. If the front is blocked off, go through the back. 2. Pay your fees on time. 3. Be on time. 4. What's said in here stays in here. "If you're going to gossip, tell yo own stuff; it's juicer and more accurate". 5. Participate. 6. No sleeping. 7. Respect other's opinions. 8. Only one person to the bathroom at a time. 9. No food or drinks. Clear water bottles only. 10. Wear appropriate attire. 11. No leaving the building after you enter. 12. No cell phones. 13. No profanity. Little words turn into big words, which turn into sentences. 14. Do not come intoxicated and/or under the influence. TIP#1: 50-75% first time offenders become second time offenders. Make the right choices and learn the first time around. TIP#2: If you're even a minute late, you will not be let into the classroom, will have to do a makeup, and pay a $25 fee. Keith likes me, so he was nice enough to let me slide one time when I came in at 7:01pm. 3 face to face interviews: These only last 10-15 minutes so they're chill! 5 group meetings with my counselor Lisa: I find these much more enjoyable and interactive than education!

I was completely unprepared for what would unfold during my time at the Hypnotherapy Training…read moreInstitute (HTI). When I enrolled, I was already practicing some hypnotherapy as an adjunct to my EFT counseling practice, and I wanted to take my knowledge a little deeper. After attending the info session, I signed up and waited six months, knowing the institute had international renown. I assumed I'd get some solid professional training out of it. Little did I know what awaited me. After just a few weekends in the local Weekend Program, it became clear why HTI consistently shows up in the top three recommended programs--and why many consider it the very best place to train. 1. Breadth and Depth of Training What sets HTI apart is its truly integrative orientation. Students are exposed to a wide range of schools of thought (e.g., Ericksonian, transpersonal, and more) as well as diverse domains of practice (e.g., medical hypnosis, stress resilience, deep emotional clearing, resolving inner conflicts, hypnosis for problem-solving). Like any serious graduate-level study, it's up to each student to dig deeper into particular approaches of interest--but HTI provided quality resources at every step of the way. More importantly, the curriculum emphasizes practice. We had abundant supervised sessions and received thoughtful, detailed feedback. Few training programs in hypnotherapy can say the same. This emphasis on practical application--alongside the solid theoretical foundation--taught me to listen deeply, attune to the client, and meet them exactly where they are. 2. Confidence in Practice Because HTI grounds students in principles rather than rigid techniques, I developed the freedom and intuition to use whatever works best for each client. The training is structured in such a way that I've naturally found my way into my own unique style or practice. I now feel 100% confident walking into sessions with clients presenting novel or complex issues, knowing I can skillfully navigate and facilitate meaningful outcomes: blindfold me, spin me around, and drop me in an unfamiliar place with a new client and a novel issue, and I am confident that I can facillitate an amazing process for them. Before HTI, I was preoccupied with "doing it right." Now, that anxiety has been replaced by a simple guiding question: What would make this even more excellent and helpful for my client? What a beneficial and meaningful shift for clients to have a therapist that has her eyes on that! This shift is priceless. It allowed me to see hypnotherapy as much an art as it is a science, and it gave me the confidence to trust my skills in any situation. 3. Faculty and Mentorship The depth of the curriculum reflects the hearts and minds of those who teach it. Each instructor has a unique style, and I've learned something invaluable from every one of them. I truly feel I stand on the shoulders of giants. I found the faculty to be very personable and professional, both. It would be hard to overstate how profound Randal's (the founder's) presence is--his passion, his dedication to the work, and his unflagging commitment to his students. He taught me to stand for each client I serve, to bring love and integrity to the work, and to listen so deeply that the next step in the session becomes self-evident. 4. Transformative Impact In my professional life, I strive for excellence and integrity. I found HTI to be a shining example of both. For perspective: my Master's degree in transformative psychology and learning cost me about $60,000. HTI tuition was a fraction of that--and I would value it at $80,000 or more, given the training and personal development it offers. In truth, HTI developed me far more than graduate school. The impact was not just professional but deeply personal. Because I was continually being hypnotized and developed by both staff and peers, my own life transformed in ways I can barely put into words. Without exaggeration, I now divide my life into "Before HTI" and "After HTI." 5. Balanced Notes If I had to offer a critique, it would be small things: Randal's preference for chairs in rows instead of circles, or wishing lunch breaks were a bit longer. That's it! *** If you're considering, do it. May you find the courage to take the leap into this exquisite world beyond your imagination. For me, HTI was one of the best decisions of my life.

The in-person experience and curriculum are what set HTI apart. You're trained to think critically and respond to each client's needs in real time, not just apply techniques mechanically. The result is a program that consistently develops some of the best hypnotherapists in the world. Beyond the professional training, I met incredible people and experienced personal growth I never would have expected. This program set off both my career and my life in powerful ways. If you're committed to becoming an effective hypnotherapist, or even your own healing, I can't recommend it highly enough.
