Certified Hypnotherapy Qualifications
How to Become a Professional Hypnotherapist
The ICCHP offers students a range of certified hypnotherapy qualifications, allowing them to become a professional hypnotherapist upon their completion of the course. We provide a range of courses leading to specific qualifications, so that students can select the course which best fulfils their needs. Students planning on becoming professional hypnotherapy practitioners in the UK will start with the classroom based PCHyp and then go on to the PDHyp. Existing hypnotherapy practitioners looking to upgrade - update their existing qualifications can take advantage of up to 50% discount off our usual hypnotherapy course fees. Students outside the UK wanting to complete the ICCHP programme will start with the CHyp and then go on to the DHyp. Our master classes are open to all students and will appeal to those seeking additional knowledge and training, or those wanting to fulfil Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements.
The ICCHP places students’ needs and requirements at the heart of its teaching approach. It offers full support, delivered by highly skilled, qualified and experienced, clinical hypnotherapy teachers, with both academic and practical expertise.
As a student hypnotherapist, you will study a comprehensive range of hypnotherapy concepts, psychotherapeutic processes and techniques, in addition to developing a range of therapeutic and clinical skills underpinned by an understanding of psychology, psychotherapy and therapeutic hypnosis. You will build and develop your knowledge and skills throughout your learning. You will start by mastering the hypnotic process and then be introduced to a variety of psychotherapeutic processes and their application, leading to understanding and applying the most advanced hypnotherapy techniques. Once you have completed the course, you will be able to effectively and efficiently treat clients with hypnopsychotherapy.
The ICCHP base all of its therapeutic and hypnotic approaches on well researched and evidence based practice, underpinned by established theories which explain how and why therapeutic hypnosis is effective. The basis of our therapeutic model is taught exclusively by the ICCHP and helps students to quickly understand the processes involved in hypnotherapy.
