Testimonials

" I have been thinking on how to express what a wonderful workshop it was with Dr Emmett Miller. I walked away with so very much. It has been a hard year, with some major upsets in my life. Dr Miller seemed to touch on everything I needed to look at, deal with, and move on. When I left that evening I was beat, but I can tell you what weight was lifted from my heart, my soul, my very being. I felt as if I had a brand new start, a new way of working and dealing with my everyday life. I can only hope that I too someday can do such things for other people. What a blessingm and thank you so very much for bringing this teacher to us. Sincerely, Michele E Hale"

"Thanks to all of you at the National Hypnotherapy Training Center for hosting the excellent talk by Dr Emmett Miller. I sure did enjoy hearing and thinking about his observations and understandings of integrated healing. I also appreciated his first-hand knowledge of the healing field, his open-mindedness and his excellent sense of humor. Dr Miller's presentation style is relaxed, friendly and easy to follow.
