Dangers of Hypnotherapy

The reason why you see the words “ethics” and “ethical” so much on this website is that Hypnotherapy is still, as yet an unregulated industry and as a result there are hidden dangers with choosing the wrong therapist.

Desmond is currently chairman of an ICHP PGA committee on the government regulation and registration of the profession of Hypnotherapy. "You can feel confident and relaxed while working with me in the knowledge that I am fully trained as a Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist, fully insured, fully registered with the ICHP PGA and I use a wide range of therapies to insure that I have the right therapy for you". Dont suffer in silence! I am here to help and the initial consultation is FREE so you have nothing to lose but your issues.

Choosing a Therapist

When choosing a Hypnotherapist, use the following checklist:

• Be sure that they follow a comprehensive code of ethics and standards of practice
• That they are fully insured & are a member of a professional association
• That you have somewhere to go in the event that you are mistreated
• Never use a Hypnotherapist that would ask you to cut down or come off your medication before treatment
• Ask what qualifications they have, how long it took to get those qualifications and where they were acquired
• Avoid any therapist that offers a cure or a guarantee. It is both unethical and illegal.
• Don't be afraid to interview your therapist and if you are not comfortable with the answers, ring around and use a therapist that you are comfortable with. Remember you must be comfortable with your therapist for effetive therapy to take place

If a client has any genuine cause for concern with an ICHP therapist, they have immediate access to the ICHP Legal & Disciplinary Procedures Committee. Beware of those who are not registered or monitored!
