Important please read before considering studying the NGH Consulting Hypnotist Certification Course

I would like to reassure enquirers that all NGH members receive quality and appropriate training. Members of the NGH in good standing must maintain the required number of continuing-education hours, are of high moral character, conduct themselves and their practice of hypnosis in a professional and ethical manner. The NGH has a strict code of ethics and practice. It is incumbent on members to follow the international protocols and ethical standards of practice always considering the well-being of the client first and foremost.

Note: There is a distinction between “Hypnotherapy” and “Psychotherapy.”

• Psychotherapy, which as a hypnotherapist we do not do, means the diagnosis and conversational treatment of mental disease.
• Hypnotherapy, which we practice, means the use of trance and suggestion to improve general self-control and maintain a positive mental attitude.

It is clear that psychotherapy involves the “disease” of sick people, while hypnotherapy involves helping normal people cope with normal problems in living. Hypnotism is a safe and effective intervention for a variety of motivational, self improvement and goal setting situations. It is natural and free of side effects, when performed by a certified competent practitioner the results are long lasting and often permanent.

It does not require years of study to become a hypnotist, although an expert can become such only through constant practice, such as is necessary to insure proficiency in any art. There is no restriction upon the acquisition of hypnotic knowledge; its blessings belong to all who desire them and are willing to strive to secure them. It is a natural ability possessed by practically everyone and capable of being developed by all who devote to its study the patience and energy always so necessary for the development of natural talents.

If there is any issue that you would like to discuss further, please feel free to contact me. Sometimes it’s just nicer to speak to a real human being! Thank you for your interest in hypnotism/hypnotherapy and for taking the time to visit this site.

If you have further questions sometimes it’s better to talk to a real human being. Feel free to contact me by telephone. To conclude I will leave you with a quote from Price Pritchett, “If you must doubt something, doubt your limits.”

Sincerely,
