The Aims of the NCHP

·                   To enrol mature, motivated individuals as student members of the National College of Hypnosis and Psychotherapy (NCHP) so that after a thorough training they will be able to enhance the profession of hypno-psychotherapy.

 

·                   To impart to student members a sound and thorough knowledge of hypnosis and to train them in methods of inducing and managing the hypnotic state.

 

·                   To give student members who wish to establish a successful practice a sound and thorough knowledge of hypno‑psychotherapy, and other branches of psychotherapy.

 

·                   To provide a programme of Continuing Professional Development whereby established practitioners can keep abreast of the latest techniques and developments within their own area of specialisation, and in related spheres of therapy.

 

·                   To provide an opportunity for trained and competent students to become members of a professional association comprising only those practitioners who have achieved a similar standard.

 

These aims are under constant review, to take account of ongoing work within the profession. The means of achieving these aims are explained in the following pages.

 

All persons enrolled on NCHP courses at Stages One, Two or Three are automatically Student Members of the College.  Persons holding the NCHP Diploma in Hypno-Psychotherapy can opt to be graduate members of the College.
