Recognised & Quality Checked by the
National Hypnotherapy Society

Our Certificate in Hypnotherapy course will equip you with a good knowledge of hypnotherapy: a starting point for practice if you're new to the subject.

You’ll gain a clear understanding of all the basic concepts and techniques of hypnotherapy, including the history of this stimulating profession and its many uses in daily life, including relaxation.  You’ll learn many useful skills for your own personal growth as well as starting to build your own practical experiences of hypnotherapy.

This course is recognised and Quality Checked by the National Hypnotherapy Society which holds an Accredited Register, recognised by the Professional Standards Authority.

This course allows you to experience the hypnotherapy profession and helps you to decide if hypnotherapy is a career you wish to continue with. If so, your approved certificate demonstrates that you have undertaken foundation learning, which makes it easier to take the next step towards a professional career.

Although there are no statutory regulations governing the title ‘Hypnotherapist’ we would not recommend that you would be able to claim yourself to be a competent practitioner by only doing our online course, or indeed any other distance learning course in this field. Our courses are designed to be an introductory step in the process and if you decide you’d like to pursue it as a career; we would advise undertaking a professional level, face-to-face course which gives you the necessary supervised hours you would require to enter this sector. You can achieve this with Chrysalis Courses.
