What Kind of Hypnosis Training Should I Get?
Kinds of Hypnosis Training
There are all types and various time lengths of hypnosis training available today. The National Guild of Hypnotists (NHG) requires that you receive 100 hours of training from one of their Certified Trainers. There are programs that will certify Hypnotists after a weekend of training. I recently saw some posts by an individual that received his training free by watching videos online.
Training to Bring a Client to the Hypnotic State
There are lots of ways to train in hypnosis. My initial training was as a licensed mental health professional. I actually could have used my license to practice hypnosis but I decided that becoming a certified hypnotist would be in the best interests of my clients.
Advanced Hypnosis Training
To begin with, the National Guild of Hypnotists {NGH} requires it’s members to obtain continuing education. Along with that, I believe that it is in the best interest of the hypnotist and his or her clients to obtain as much training as possible. It is considered unethical to practice techniques that you are not trained to perform.
