That sense of wonder and curiosity is the doorway to powerful transformation.
You are invited to experience it again, this time as a professional hypnotist guiding others to real change.
Welcome to the ICBCH Flagship Professional Hypnosis Certification, an 9-week immersion into the art and science of hypnosis that begins June 16 at 8:00pm Eastern, continuing weekly until 10:00pm for 9 weeks, ending August 11, 2025.
This is the only program that covers all the essentials—inductions, Ericksonian language, and suggestion structure—while integrating experiential somatic hypnosis for a holistic approach that helps people shift their health, habits, and happiness.
Whether you’re a total beginner, a coach, or a mental health professional, this course has been designed to show you step-by-step how to use hypnosis to create genuine breakthroughs.
Throughout these 9 weekly trainings, you’ll build the confidence to lead hypnosis in person or online for any number of needs—stress relief, habit change, wealth mindset, or personal growth.
By the end, you’ll have 100 hours of comprehensive instruction behind you and an ICBCH certification that tells the world you’re ready to help others achieve lasting change.
This course isn’t just a one-dimensional approach.
It’s a multi-layered learning experience that combines live interaction with robust, on-demand resources.
This dual approach means you’re never waiting around for the “next class.”
You can start your journey the moment you sign up, gaining a head start on material we’ll reinforce in our live sessions.
It’s a dynamic mix of live, hands-on training and self-paced discovery.
This program welcomes anyone with a passion for helping others experience new possibilities:
If you’re new, you’ll learn step-by-step how to guide others into trance and deliver powerful suggestions that stick.
Deepen your sessions with somatic, Ericksonian, and conversational techniques that create greater breakthroughs for your clients.
You can integrate hypnosis into your existing practice to offer a natural solution for anxiety, pain management, and more.
If you love self-growth, you’ll gain advanced tools to help friends, family, and yourself break unwanted patterns and adopt healthier habits.
I’ve tailored this course to fit both beginners and seasoned professionals.

Each week includes live practice, group discussions, and immediate feedback.
On top of that, you’ll be diving into asynchronous videos, texts, and guided practice sessions from our extensive library.
Hypnosis, when done correctly, can be a gateway to immediate and lasting transformation.
Clients frequently report relief after the very first session.
You’ll discover how to replicate these results consistently and ethically.
When someone is in a hypnotic state, they’re open to suggestion in a unique and lasting way.
You’ll learn precisely how to shape that opportunity for maximum benefit.
A trove of videos, text lessons, and case examples you can explore immediately, 24/7.
You’ll receive recognized references in hypnosis and NLP techniques, ensuring you have credible sources to refer back to.
Nine interactive classes where you’ll see demos, get feedback, and network with like-minded professionals.
Combining the live classes, on-demand video training, text-based instruction, and hands-on assignments, you’ll surpass the usual depth of many trainings on the market.
Revisit the lessons whenever you need a refresher. If life gets busy and you miss a session, you can catch the replay.
Apply the techniques with classmates or volunteers, gaining confidence before you work with paying clients.
This holistic approach keeps you engaged, informed, and ready to
make a difference the moment you receive your certification.
Think of the joy you’ll feel when your first client emerges from trance, eyes bright with fresh insights, ready to embrace a new path.
Picture your confidence soaring as you realize you have a clear, proven system for guiding people toward real, measurable results.
Hypnosis isn’t just a party trick or a quick fix.
Done right, it’s a catalyst for self-discovery and profound personal evolution. The research backs this, and you will be learning researched methods of professional hypnosis.
