and consistent practise sessions in small groups.
Hypnotherapy Courses: An introduction to our Strategic Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy Courses
Why study hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a series of processes and therapeutic techniques that use accredited hypnosis training to access and address the unconscious mind. For a long time, experts believed that meaningful and sustained change could be achieved using a standardised set of scripted hypnotic commands. But the range of therapeutic techniques has evolved a significant amount in the last few decades.
Unlike stage hypnosis, the purpose of clinical hypnotherapy training is to teach prospective hypnotherapists how to bypass the conscious interference of their clients’ minds. In this way, practitioners can help them solve problems at an unconscious level.
How do I benefit from taking a hypnotherapy course?
In 2001, a working group was commissioned to survey the evidence compiled on the effectiveness of clinical hypnosis as a therapeutic tool by the British Psychological Society. According to their findings,
‘Enough studies have now accumulated to suggest that the inclusion of hypnotic procedures may be beneficial in the management and treatment of a wide range of conditions and problems encountered in the practice of medicine, psychiatry and psychotherapy’.
With the acceptance of clinical hypnosis as a valid therapeutic solution by both the medical and mental health professions, more clients than ever are open to exploring this option. This, in turn, means that taking accredited hypnotherapy courses is not just a good idea, it is essential. With this powerful tool in your arsenal, you can provide clients with a treatment scientifically proven to deliver long-term results.
Why is Strategic Psychotherapy part of our Hypnotherapy Courses?
One of the most effective modern forms of hypnotherapy employs Strategic Psychotherapy. A term coined by Dr Jay Hayley, it is a form of therapy that falls under the broad spectrum of ‘cognitive behavioural brief therapies’. With this approach, the clinician will first work with their client to define and agree on the issues to be targeted and the final goal of the treatment.
Once this has been established, clinical hypnotherapists will then design a treatment program that applies a specific approach for each individual problem. Rather than using a one size fits all treatment plan, strategic psychotherapists use a blend of different methods and approaches to treat these issues. A blend tailored to both the preferences and needs of each individual client.
This may include NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) techniques as well as certain cognitive/behavioural methods.

Why is Strategic Psychotherapy part of the Hypnotherapy Courses at IAP Perth?
Because one of the most effective forms of modern clinical hypnotherapy employs this discipline. Developed by Dr Jay Hayley, this form of therapy falls under the broad spectrum of “cognitive behavioural brief therapies”. With this approach, mental health care providers first find out and agree on what issues need to be treated, then decide on the final goal of the treatment plan.
Once that is done, clinical hypnotherapists will then create a customised treatment program that is tailored to the personal preferences and needs of that client. In short, strategic psychotherapists do not use a one size fits all approach. Instead, they use a blend of modalities and sequences to treat the various issues of their client.
This may include NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) techniques as well as certain cognitive/behavioural methods.
Why is hypnotherapy training in Perth beneficial to my role as a healthcare provider?
Learning hypnosis does not mean you have to completely change how you provide care to your clients. Instead, you can think of hypnotherapy as a powerful complement to the rest of the tools in your treatment arsenal. Our unconscious mind is the root of all our behaviours, habits and thoughts. Hypnosis grants you access to this area, enabling you to discover the motivations behind why we react in certain ways to specific situations.
It has also been discovered that suggestions and revelations made at a subconscious level have more impact and the effect of the treatment is more lasting. Some ways in which hypnotherapists boost other treatments they offer are:
- Helping clients to quit smoking or overcome overeating by focusing their mind on the negative impacts and gently suggesting behaviours that would be healthier.
- Accessing the link between mind and body in order to relieve chronic or acute pain, even during surgery or childbirth.
- Treating some physical afflictions that are aggravated by stress and anxiety, such as IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) or eczema.
- Probing deeply within the unconscious mind in order to discover and treat the root causes of various mental health issues including PTSD, addiction, anxiety and depression.

Fast but convenient and efficient pathway
Our unique format of 4 day blocks (Friday-Monday) approximately once per month
allows you to get immersed in the material, and then practice it sufficiently to be competent
before advancing you further with the next installment. You will see that some
schools run intensives of maybe two blocks of seven days or one block of 11 days and
then nothing after that.

before advancing you further with the next installment. You will see that some
schools run intensives of maybe two blocks of seven days or one block of 11 days and
then nothing after that.
Our experience is that it is hard to absorb the material and become competent when
there is no time for experimentation and feedback over a period of time.
Feel certain your future is assured
Government accreditation means that even in the face of increasing regulation, your
qualification will be recognised. If regulations come in as they have in counselling, then
non accredited and industry accredited qualifications will have to be upgraded. This
could cost you upwards of $6000.
There are many non government providers, but we are already seeing some Health
Funds limit their coverage of Hypnotherapy to Government Accredited trained members.

Rest assured - the best techniques available will be yours
This school is the only place you can learn Strategic Psychotherapy. Others might
claim to teach it, but it won’t appear on their competencies or their Diploma. We have
retrained people from other schools who either pulled out or completed and did not
feel competent to practice.
“Originally I trained with (ANOTHER SYDNEY SCHOOL) I met Gordon through a friend
and he generously invited me to sit in on his class for a day. Even though technically I was
already qualified, I stayed!!!! The difference in the quality of the training, the content and the
delivery was immediately obvious. I filled in a lot of experiential gaps I still had even after 18
months of training.”
It was practical, professional and fun. If I had my time over again I would not hesitate …I
would save my time and money and train with the Australian Institute of Clinical Hypnotherapy.”
