She's Got a Hypnotic Personality

What does Pat Mitchell do for fun? She loves horses and feels a spiritual connection to them. She has a 25 years old Arabian mare, Gavvy, that she got when she was a four-year-old. Gavvy is so kind, that Pat is moved by her great heart. She also has a Welsh pony, Blue, who's job it is to keep Gavvy company - he is mischief of the best kind. These two give Pat hours of fun and work.

Pat has a degree in Fine Arts and a minor in Psychology from SSU. So, she continues with her art as a "serious" hobby. Currently, she is painting with glazes - original images of horses on green-ware (premade plates, bowls, vases) that are then fired. The glaze colors become brilliant and permanent. She is planning to do some free-form sculpting of bowls in clay, glazing and firing them. Wish her luck as cracks can cause disaster! Pat plans to get back to the easier job of oil painting - when she can find the time.

Mostly, Pat is involved in the wonderful healing work of hypnotherapy. She is a certified hypnotherapist and a graduate of two hypnotherapy schools, The Alchemy Institute of Hypnosis and The California Institute of Mind Body Awareness. Her husband Carl, is a licensed Marriage Family Therapist, (MFT). From him she has learned additional techniques and methods that enhance her work with clients. Therapy also has helped them personally to grow in understanding and to heal their childhood traumas.



Pat and Carl have been married for 45+ years. They married young and their bond has deepened over the years

as they have grown to accept one another - flaws and virtues all rolled together in the matrix of experience and time and what it means to be human. Now, on the rare times they argue, it ends in laughter.

Current news - Pat is now a temporary assistant instructor (for the spring and summer weekend sessions) at the Alchemy Institute. This is an exciting opportunity to hone her skills and continue her education while helping others to learn hypnotherapy. It is amazing to see the transformations that occur in class as students learn and experience hypnotherapy. There is a deep bonding that happens as students share their life stories and open themselves to emotional healing through this process of hypnosis. At the end of an intensive weekend workshop, the faces of students radiate excitement, joy and love. It is a privilege to be a participant in their healing and learning.



Pat raises the question, "What can Hypnotherapy do for you?" It can change bad habits, enhance sports performance, enable you to quit smoking, improve your public speaking, cure fears and phobias, retrieve forgotten childhood memories, heal childhood traumas, emotional wounds and PTSD, help heal grief from loss and divorce.

If you would like to experience any of these transformation possibilities in your life, give Pat Mitchell a call. She would be honored to work with you.
