    The Institute

    The Institute of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy was established by Dr. Keaney in 1990, to fill the evident need for comprehensive, contempory and structured training of Hypnotherapy.  The original Diploma course in clinical hypnotherapy has now been extended to include a Foundation course in Hypnotherapy-psychotherapy, a Diploma course in hypnotherapy-psychotherapy and an Advanced Diploma in Hypnotherapy-psychotherapy.  As will be seen in this website these different courses fill different needs.

    The training programmes of the ICHP cover two fundamental aspects of hypnotherapy, namely Suggestion Therapy and Analytical Therapy.  Although the foundation of the training is in Hypno/Psychotherapy, Analysis and Hypnotherapy which enables specialisation in Hypnoanalytical Psychotherapy, the course encapsulates an eclectic mix of therapeutic and psychotherapeutic modalities including Ericksonian hypnotherapy, NLP, Parts Therapy, Past Life Regression, Visualisations, Transpersonal work, Gestalt, Inner Child work and, etc.

    Since its birth in 1990 the ICHP has grown considerably and now has hundreds of ICHP graduates working in successful private practices in many countries.   The ICHP has developed international mirror organisations, namely, ICHP Australia, ICHP Sweden, ICHP Germany, ICHP UK  & etc, but this is just the beginning ...

    The Institute is affiliated with, and our trainings accredited internationally to, the demanding standards of the National Council of Hypnotherapy N.C.H.(UK) and the United Kingdom Confederation of Hypnotherapy Organisations (UKCHO).  Currently the Institute is in the process of establishing degree and post-graduate level master’s degree qualifications in hypno-psychotherapy.  Already the Institute runs post-graduate workshops routinely throughout the calendar year.

    Taking all the training courses, workshops, master classes and presentations by overseas speakers, the Institute is probably the single largest provide of vocational training in Hypnotherapy-psychotherapy in the world.  Without a doubt your qualifications will receive recognition no matter where in the world you may choose to practice.
