    What Instructor Graduates Are Saying

    Instructor graduates are running their own certified training programs, building training-based revenue streams, and shaping the next generation of hypnotherapists.

    I launched my first Level 1 cohort eight weeks after completing the instructor program. Twelve students, $1,200 each, and the feeling of watching someone facilitate their first successful induction under my supervision — there's nothing like it. Teaching has become my primary revenue stream.

    Dr. Vanessa T.

    Certified Meta Hypnotherapy Instructor

    Denver, CO

    Kelly's mentorship during the instructor program was transformative. She didn't just teach me what to teach — she taught me how to teach clinical skills. Demonstration, scaffolding, feedback loops, assessing competency. I'm a fundamentally better educator and clinician because of this program.

    Michael B.

    Certified Meta Hypnotherapy Instructor & LCSW

    New York, NY

    The business model for running training programs changed my financial picture completely. I went from earning $120K/year in 1:1 work to $240K+ by adding two training cohorts per year. And I'm working fewer hours because the teaching model is so efficient.

    Sandra G.

    Certified Meta Hypnotherapy Instructor

    Austin, TX

    What surprised me most was how much my own clinical skills deepened through learning to teach. When you have to explain why a protocol works and troubleshoot student cases, your understanding reaches a completely different level. I'm better with my own clients now than I was before.

    Dr. Richard C.

    Licensed Psychologist & Certified Instructor

    Chicago, IL

    I wanted to raise the bar for hypnotherapy training in my region. There were too many weekend 'certifications' producing practitioners who weren't safe. Now I run a rigorous, supervised program that graduates competent clinicians. Three of my students have already launched successful practices.

    Important Disclosures

    Educational Outcomes

    Boulder Hypnotherapy Institute (BHI) programs are educational in nature. Training outcomes depend on each student's prior education, professional background, effort, and individual learning pace. Completion of any BHI program does not guarantee employment, income, client outcomes, or professional licensure. Students are responsible for verifying that hypnotherapy practice is permitted within their jurisdiction and professional scope.

    Scope of Practice

    BHI training does not confer a professional license, medical credential, or mental health credential. Graduates are responsible for practicing within their own legal scope of practice, professional licensure requirements, and ethical guidelines. Hypnotherapy is a complementary modality — it is not a substitute for medical care, psychotherapy, or mental health treatment.

    Continuing Education

    Continuing education (CE) credits are approved by the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC), Provider #6571. CE eligibility and acceptance vary by licensing board and jurisdiction. Students should verify that NBCC-approved CEs satisfy their specific board's renewal requirements before enrolling. Programs designated as "0 CEs" do not offer continuing education credits.

    Training vs. Certification

    "Training" programs (e.g., Level 1) award a certificate of completion, which documents your education hours and curriculum covered. "Certification" programs (e.g., Level 2+) award a professional certification credential upon successful completion of all competency requirements. Neither credential constitutes a state-issued license.

    Payment Terms

    Tuition is due in full at enrollment or via the stated payment plan. Payment plans are interest-free and processed automatically on the scheduled dates. Missed payments may result in a hold on program access until the balance is current. See our full Refund & Withdrawal Policy for cancellation terms, credit transfers, and cohort deferrals.
