Explore the evidence for clinical hypnosisWhere depth psychology meets the trance state.
Archetypal fluency
Learn to recognize and work with the archetypes — shadow, anima/animus, the Self — as they surface in trance. You gain a vocabulary for the symbolic material clients bring and a map for where it wants to go.
Symbol as a therapeutic tool
Tarot imagery becomes a structured set of doorways into the subconscious — not fortune telling, but a projective, imaginal method for surfacing what the analytical mind keeps hidden.
A Level 4 credential
Graduate with a Jungian & Transpersonal Hypnotherapy certification, 32 NBCC-approved CE hours, and a protocol library you can bring straight into practice.
Six live modules. One year of depth.
The same six-module arc runs across the year — each a three-day live intensive on Zoom, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM MT. The work compounds module to module, from foundational archetypes through full integration.

Is Level 4 the right next step?
Level 4 is for you if:
- You've completed Level 1 (or equivalent) and want a depth-psychology layer to your work
- You're drawn to symbol, myth, and the imaginal as clinical tools — not just talk
- You want a structured, ethical framework for archetypal and tarot-based trance work
- You're a Jungian-oriented therapist looking to bring trance into your practice
- You want a Level 4 credential and 32 NBCC CE hours
Level 4 is not for you if:
- You haven't completed Level 1 (or equivalent) — this is not entry-level
- You're looking for a fortune-telling or divination course rather than clinical work
- You can't commit to the full six-module arc across the year
- You want purely protocol-driven work with no symbolic or imaginal dimension
