Integrative Hypnotherapy Institute

Diploma of Clinical
Hypnotherapy

Become a fully trained, internationally accredited clinical hypnotherapist. Twelve modules of trauma-informed, integrative training, delivered live online by therapists who do this for a living.

Why hypnotherapy

Learn to help people heal at the deepest level

Talk therapy talks to the part of the mind that already knows there's a problem. Hypnotherapy works with the part that's actually running the behaviour: the subconscious, where habits, anxiety, addictions, trauma responses and self-sabotage live.

The Diploma of Clinical Hypnotherapy is our complete training. By the end, you won't just know how to hypnotise someone. You'll know how to take a client from intake to resolution: finding the root cause, releasing it, and rebuilding, whether the issue is weight, smoking, anxiety, a relationship pattern or something they can't even name yet.

Is this you?

Student stories

What our students say

Amazing hypnotherapy course, I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a thorough training, with a lot of practice as well as techniques and theory. The only hypnotherapy school I have found that teaches advanced techniques safely using distance learning, and I have looked everywhere! Caroline and Daryl are excellent teachers and mentors, very talented and successful in their own hypnotherapy career, they really help you succeed in your journey.

Violaine Hemery, IHI student

I can't say enough good things about IHI. Caroline and Daryl are both amazing as practitioners and teachers. I love the extensive knowledge and experience they both have and the space they hold for students and in Supervision. I was looking and looking for a distance hypnotherapy school and after much googling stumbled across them. After listening to some humorous interviews, I was hooked and then have been just wowed by the thoroughness and quality of the training. They are very patient and supportive of their students and manage to attract and foster an amazing group in which I've witnessed much growth and personal transformation. They also make training very fun which good healing should be in between the profound, practical and serious bits!

Rose Aitken, IHI student

Training is really comprehensive which I like and the trainers are approachable, funny and have a vast amount of knowledge to share. Highly recommend.
