national hypnotherapy society ltd.
London
The National Hypnotherapy Society is a Learned Society whose primary purpose is
the advancement of the knowledge of hypnotherapy and the fostering of
professional hypnotherapy expertise through training, accreditation and
continued professional development of our members. The Society seeks to
contribute to public wellbeing both through the use of hypnotherapy and by
ensuring that hypnotherapists are safe, competent and ethical in practice. The
Society plays an important role within the profession of hypnotherapy in the UK
and in 2013 the Society was the first (and to date the only) solely Hypnotherapy
organisation to gain Accredited Register status with the Professional Standards
Authority AR programme. As an Accredited Register holder we meet the robust and
exacting standards set by the Professional Standards Authority with particular
emphasis on public safety and assuring that the best interests of the clients
are protected. The National Hypnotherapy Society believes that all Accredited
Registers should be seen as equal. To this end, we were instrumental in gaining
recognition within the NHS for all Accredited Registers. NHS Employers has added
content encouraging the use and detailing the benefits of Accredited Registers.
We are a not for profit organisation and the high standards of our Accredited
Register are externally verified by the Professional Standards Authority. The
organisation is bound by appropriate rules of governance including a
constitution, codes of ethics, and a complaints procedure.
