Hello I am 23 and have a very keen interest in NLP and hypnotherapy and would love to get properly qualified and trained to be able to make a professional career out of helping people with them. I’ve looked on the internet and the length of courses last from 3 days to 9 months! I don’t want to just go to something where I only hear the being methods talked about I’d want to become fully proficient in them. I also don’t want to be ripped off.
I’ve found a course that I think looks good :http://www.nlpacademy.co.uk/NLPPremierPractitioner.asp
combined together with
http://www.nlpacademy.co.uk/certification/MasterPractitioner.asp .
NLP doesn’t really have a governing body that sets criteria for course standardization so I don’t know how to check it. what do you think I should do?
Hello Paul
As a Hypnotherapist myself you can pay thousands or hundreds – they all teach the same thing. Here is one link, it looks unprofessional but he is the real deal http://www.hypnotherapy-training.com/
If you feel drawn to a company, then follow your own instinct. It is an area where people charge a lot of money, & costs doesn’t always mean that they are better than those cheaper.
I started of with a mentor & then went book mad. You can get some excellent books from Amazon etc, being self taught means I uncovered more stones than I may have done being able to afford traditional study at the start. Take yourself into hypnosis as many times as you can via recording real scripts onto tape etc.

They are ALL a con; NLP and hypnotherapy both fall into the category of quack-medicine so any training you receive is going to be based on bad science. You pay your money, sign a few forms and they send you a diploma not worth the paper it’s printed on.
If you think I’m being narrow-minded, my IP address was permanently banned (twice in fact) from the Hypnosis.com website because – very gently – I pressed a question asking for credible evidence confirming the reality of hypnosis. I should have kept a copy of the last email I received from the forum administrators because it essentially told me I was an ignorant moron and to go f*** myself – seriously, the language was less than polite.
Become a therapist by all means but take care not to become part of the quack fraternity.
