The
interest in Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy is skyrocketing these days, and so are the
fees charged by Certified Clinical Hypnotherapists in the USA.
Currently our research indicates that even
in small suburban areas, it's not uncommon for Certified Hypnotherapists to be
charging $250. for hour-long Hypnotherapy sessions. No wonder the interest in
quality Hypnotherapy training is on the rise. And fortunately for prospective
students, training methods and options have improved considerably in the last
several years.
Ten years ago, most Distance Learning
Hypnotherapy Certification trainings were offered as written material or in the
old VHS format. Technology has made it possible for Hypnotherapy training and
certification programs to produce good quality video in a DVD format and Online,
making the learning process much easier than it was 10 years ago.
What is
driving this intense interest in Hypnotherapy and the meteoric rise in fees
charged by Certified Clinical Hypnotherapists ?
I believe that the answer is supply
and demand, plus an escalating public awareness in the effectiveness of
Hypnotherapy. A quick internet search reveals multiple studies that demonstrate
the following:
- Hypnotherapy is 90% more effective than
other methods for weight loss.
- Hypnotherapy is 78% more effective than
other methods for smoking.
- Hypnotherapy is 66% more effective in
curing phobias than other methods.
This research
is just a fraction of what's available online, and fortunately for those of us
who work in this field, the research is no longer anecdotal. These are research
studies performed at research facilities and universities in the US and
overseas. More and more research is being done, and as another indicator of the
growing regard for Hypnotherapist, medical doctors are beginning to prescribe
Hypnosis more routinely for their patients. The days of Hypnotherapy seen as
quackery are long behind us.
What does all of
this mean for those who want to practice or to consider practicing Hypnotherapy
?
It means that the combination of technology,
opportunity, and demand are working in concert to create the ideal time for
motivated individuals to enter this highly rewarding field. Not only does being
a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist pay well, but it is incredibly rewarding to
help others to get what they want and to leave behind habits and belief patterns
that haven't served them well.
If you believe in win-wins, that aptly describes training in
Clinical
Hypnotherapy and working in this wonderful field.
So, what do you need to
become a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist ?
- Hypnotherapy Certification
- Pleasant speaking voice
- Trustworthy manner
- Be a people person
- Enjoy working independent
- Enjoy controlling your own work
schedule
- Want to help others
- Good communication skills
What can you
expect to earn in a Hypnotherapy practice ?
Your income depends on how much time you
want to to devote working and how much you are willing to charge for your
sessions. If you charge $200. per
session, and you want to make $1000. a week you will need to work at least 10
hours per week, particularly in the beginning to network and get the word out
about your practice. As you become well-known and well-regarded, you will need
to spend less time on marketing and more time on sessions.
For those who enjoy driving their own bus and being in control of their lives, a
Clinical Hypnotherapy practice is really ideal. When you consider how little it
costs to train to work in this field, and how high the compensation is once
you're in practice, it seems like a no-brainer for those who are independent and
self-starters.
