Supervision details
What does a good Supervisor provide?
- A check in and support with case studies
- The opportunity to debrief client sessions reviewing what went well and what can be improved
- An outside perspective which can be essential when we work for ourselves
- New ideas, staying updated on the latest developments in our profession
- A listening, empathetic ear as well as reassurance and encouragement. It can sometimes be lonely working in service of clients and it’s certainly not for the feint hearted so having a supervisor in your corner can be incredibly helpful
- Advice on running a successful practice
- Talking through ethics issues
- A space to develop your skills and challenge biases
- Having a Supervisor as part of your professional role also signifies that you take your practice and client safety seriously and are open to feedback and developing as a therapist.
Why choose me as your Supervisor?

- I have trained and still train with Dr Michael Yapko, one of the leaders in our field and Author of Tranceworks.
- I was in a peer supervision group with Dr Yapko for over a decade so have learnt supervision skills from one of the best.

The CNHC encompasses many types of alternative therapy, including hypnotherapy.
In order to be admitted to the register a practitioner must have studied to the National Occupational Standards for that profession/discipline, or have reached the equivalent of the National Occupational Standards through other relevant training or at least three years of experience and been assessed by their peers.
A practitioner must also have professional insurance and agree to abide by the CNHC Code of Conduct, Performance and Ethics.
Hypnotherapists may become members of the General Hypnotherapy Register if they satisfy certain criteria with regard to both training and ongoing requirements as determined from time to time by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC).
Members are either registered at Practitioner status (which confirms that the GHR acknowledges their qualification to practice), or Affiliate status. Although Affiliate level registrants will have completed a sufficient number of training hours to equip them to commence seeing clients on a limited basis, the GHR does not acknowledge them to have yet been trained to full practitioner level.
All GHR Registered Practitioners are required to accept the published Code of Ethics and Complaints & Disciplinary Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
