The General Hypnotherapy Standards Council

Advanced Practitioner Level Training Courses

Whilst every therapist listed within the GHR website has successfully completed a course of training validated at Practitioner Level (or its equivalent) by the GHSC and we therefore consider them to be fully qualified to offer hypnotherapy services to the public, we nonetheless recognise the need to offer ongoing training opportunities to those practitioners who wish to further their knowledge and skills beyond this point. Hypnotherapy is progressing rapidly as a serious healthcare modality and as it does, so the demands for advanced training will undoubtedly increase. We are naturally keen to continue our efforts to ensure the highest standards and are confident that properly presented advanced courses will prove invaluable as continuing professional development, improving our services to the public. . Such courses will invigorate hypnotherapists' work by teaching new knowledge and techniques, developing critical and analytical thinking, cover less commonly taught presenting issues, more ways to motivate clients and maximise success, and sophisticated questioning skills. Additionally, they will teach practitioners how to deal with awkward clinical situations, advanced ethical and logical thinking, and the value of hypnotherapy research, as well as developing reflective practitioner skills.  

GHSC validated Advanced Practitioner Level Training is currently available through the following training schools. Applications are welcomed from other training schools wishing to gain this status for their own advanced courses. To that end the framework is available upon request to
