Hypnotherapy training is a professional certification program that teaches licensed clinicians and helping professionals how to use clinical hypnosis as a structured therapeutic modality. Boulder Hypnotherapy Institute's Level 1 hypnotherapy certification is a 5-day live online intensive that pairs neuroscience-grounded theory with supervised live practice — so you graduate with a complete clinical session framework, not just a script library. The training is accredited by the International Hypnotherapy Association (IHA) and awards 32 NBCC-approved continuing education credits (Provider #6571). Over 1,000 graduates nationwide have completed this program and integrated hypnotherapy into private practices, group therapy clinics, hospitals, and integrative wellness centers across all 50 states.
Boulder Hypnotherapy Institute's Level 1 hypnotherapy certification covers a complete clinical curriculum from intake through termination. You will learn clinical induction techniques including progressive relaxation, eye-fixation, fractionation, and rapid inductions; the science of trance depth and how to recognize and deepen each level; therapeutic suggestion construction grounded in Ericksonian and direct-suggestion frameworks; a complete repeatable session architecture you can apply to any presenting issue; protocols for treating anxiety, stress, phobias, smoking cessation, weight management, insomnia, pain management, and behavioral change; trauma-informed practices for safely working with activated nervous systems in trance; regression therapy and parts-work foundations; and a clinical documentation framework for intake, session notes, and outcome tracking. Every concept is reinforced through supervised breakout practice with a cohort partner and real-time instructor feedback.
This hypnotherapy training is designed for licensed mental health professionals — psychotherapists, counselors (LPC, LMHC), licensed clinical social workers (LCSW), licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFT), and psychologists — who want to add a powerful evidence-supported modality to their existing practice and earn 32 NBCC CEs in the process. It is also designed for healthcare providers (nurse practitioners, physicians, registered nurses), trauma-informed coaches, somatic practitioners, and career changers entering the helping professions. No prior hypnotherapy experience is required — the curriculum builds systematically on whatever clinical or professional foundation you already have.
Across the 5 days of live training you will practice the full range of clinical hypnotherapy techniques used in modern professional practice. The program covers progressive relaxation and eye-fixation inductions, rapid and instant induction methods for established clients, Ericksonian indirect suggestion and metaphor construction, fractionation and convincers for deepening trance, age regression with affect bridge, parts therapy and ego-state work for resolving internal conflict, somatic anchoring and safe-place protocols for trauma-informed sessions, suggestion stacking for habit-change work (smoking, weight, sleep), and the BHI session architecture that ties intake, induction, deepening, therapeutic work, integration, and emergence into a single repeatable framework. Every technique is taught through live demonstration, guided practice, and supervised peer sessions with real-time instructor feedback.
Next cohort starts June 3–7, 2026. Limited spots available. Includes 32 CEs, supervised practice, and one year of access to the BHI Practitioner Community on Circle.
