Clinical Hypnotherapist

A Clinical Hypnotherapist uses hypnosis to help individuals address a variety of psychological, emotional, and behavioural issues. You might work in a private practice, a wellness centre, or as part of a multidisciplinary team. Clinical Hypnotherapists focus on helping clients manage stress, anxiety, phobias, and other conditions by guiding them into a deeply relaxed state to access the subconscious mind and promote positive change.

Clinical Hypnotherapists play a crucial role in clients' mental health and well-being. You’ll need to be empathetic, patient, and have strong communication skills. You’ll collaborate with clients to develop tailored treatment plans and provide ongoing support to ensure they achieve their therapeutic goals.
