Elements of our Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy Training:

Assignments
Assignments are an integral part of your training. Receiving your certification is conditional upon your successful completion of all assignments. Some assignments may ask you to work with a volunteer of your choice. This can be a friend, family member, co-worker, or an actual client. Other assignments may ask you to complete a writing assignment or answer a question or to record yourself on audio. In lieu of recording, you may attend live training sessions to demonstrate your new skills with your trainer.

Audios
Most units begin with an audio introduction. Make sure to listen to the audios as directed in this manual.

Videos
The videos in this course are used as demonstrations. You will have the opportunity to watch a full session from beginning to end in Module 5. Then, that video is broken down into the parts of the session, which are covered in each module.

Live Training Sessions
You are able to attend live training sessions in our online classroom. These sessions are an opportunity for you to learn more about each topic covered in the course, practice your skills, see and participate in live demonstrations, and ask questions.

Upon successful completion of this course, you may request your certificate in the last unit.

We will talk about how to educate a client on regressions, why it is not important if they are real and you’ll learn just how powerful a regression can be in propelling a client forward.

Some of the regression techniques you will learn about are current life regression, past life regression, inter-life regression and breathwork to regression. However, in order to fully understand HOW to conduct a regression, you need to know why a regression is warranted and why you would use it.

FAQ’s

Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy FAQ’s

How to become a hypnotherapist

You an learn how to become a hypnotherapist by enrolling in a hypnotherapy training. Depending on your preference, you can go to a brick and mortal hypnotherapy training school and sit in a classroom, or, you can enjoy flexible learning and attend unlimited online classes. Upon completion of the course, you will be awarded certification. While this is not state-mandated, it helps a client to see that you have taken the time to really learn the craft.

Do I have to be licensed to practice Hypnotherapy?

While hypnotherapy is an unregulated profession (meaning you do not have to get licensed) in most states in the U.S, it is important to find a credible and respected school to learn it. You should also check with your state for rules regarding advertising yourself as a Hypnotherapist or Hypnosis Practitioner.

How much does a certified hypnotherapist make?

The amount of money a certified hypnotherapist makes varies greatly per location, skill set, and other certifications/licenses. Many practitioners today also have training in life coaching, NLP, health coaching and other modalities. Be competitive with pricing so it reflects your level of training and work your way to higher rates. Your only limitation to income is yourself.

Is Hypnotherapy a good career?

Hypnotherapy is an incredibly rewarding and fulfilling career. People invest time and money to learn to practice things like hypnotherapy, life coaching, and NLP because they want to make a difference, which is what this career is all about.

What does a Hypnotherapist do?

As a hypnotist or hypnotherapist you get to help clients achieve what they could not accomplish on their own. There is no better feeling than seeing a client reach beyond the goals they came to see you with and become a higher version of themselves.

What is the difference between a Hypnotist and a Hypnotherapist?

A hypnotist has a ground-level understanding of how hypnosis works and how to employ techniques to help the client achieve goals.
A Hypnotherapist has much more in-depth training on how to facilitate deep and lasting change for the client at the root level. Hypnotists work with things like basic trance scripts and posthypnotic suggestions. Hypnotherapy works with root-level healing to change deep-seated beliefs and behaviors.
