Guided by practising clinical hypnotherapists for clinical hypnotherapists
The Guild of Australian Hypnotherapists (GoAH) has been established to be a new and different type of association to support, mentor and be a solid community for Australian hypnotherapists. GoAH was originally conceived as a Queensland based community for clinical hypnotherapists, as there was no hypnotherapists association based in the large and diverse state of Queensland. That said, due to interest from around Australia we have opened up to welcome and support professional clinical members from across the country. GoAH proudly supports members in every state and territory, and is Australia’s fastest growing progressive association for students and practising hypnotherapists.
While the Guild of Australian Hypnotherapists is a relatively new organisation (formed November 2021), our national committee has more than 90 years of experience in leading and being on the boards of the largest hypnotherapy associations and training organisations in Australia. We’re building a community of professional Australian hypnotherapists that’ll be here for the long haul, that will support our professional practitioners and represent clinical hypnotherapy to the community, to government and to statutory bodies in a dedicated and professional manner.
GoAH is committed to a set of values that will guide our association, its members and leadership team. We’re committed to mentoring new Australian hypnotherapists, providing ongoing professional development opportunities, supporting training organisations and building a community of like-minded hypnotherapists who will lift the profile of our profession.
We may be new but we have ideas, ideals, drive and we acknowledge that we live in modern times, and that effective associations can’t do what they did forty years ago and be relatable in our new world.
Together, we can build our profession in a different way
We can see ourselves as colleagues rather than competitors
We can share in the resources of our many excellent training organisations for ongoing professional training as well as carry out our own
We can help and mentor newly qualified hypnotherapists as they begin in the profession
We can focus on hypnotherapy based workshops and advanced small group training
We can use the Hypnotherapy Council of Australia’s National Register of Accredited Hypnotherapists to help expand our practices, and;
We can build a community of like minded, qualified Australian Hypnotherapists that can make a real difference to our profession and our clients.
