The General Hypnotherapy Standards Council.

Many trainers and therapists are academically very qualified but there is a big difference in knowing your subject and being able to impart that knowledge to others. Some trainers have very little experience in running a busy practice. Looking back, I would ask the following questions now, if I were seeking hypnotherapy training.
