Please note: Non-medical hypnotherapy and parts therapy should not be seen as a replacement for established and respected medical approaches. Rather it should be viewed as complementary and supportive.

Members listed by SAIH have signed a strict Code of Ethics and have undergone thorough non-medical theoretical and practical training. All members are encouraged and motivated to further their education on an ongoing basis.
Our members have been trained in ALL ASPECTS of Hypnotherapy and are qualified as a Certified Hypnotherapist CHT non-medical and/or a Certified Parts Therapy Facilitator
What is a CERTIFIED PARTS THERAPIST FACILITATOR (CPTF)?
Certified Parts Therapy Facilitator base their approach on the widely accepted theory that we are the sum of various parts, all of which serve certain functions. In other words we can wear different hats. When these personality parts are inharmonious or fragmented, internal conflict exists within us.
Have you ever tried making a conscious decision to resolve a problem or overcome an undesired habit, only to find yourself back to square one after a while? Have you ever noticed that willpower, discipline and common sense only serves you up to some point before you backtrack to your old habits, sometimes even worse than before?
If so, then Parts Therapy or a Symptomatic Hypnotherapy approach might be the ideal technique for you!
During this multifaceted hypnotic technique the facilitator guides the client into a state of hypnosis (deeply focused relaxation) and then invites communication with the various parts that prevent the client from changing, as well as the part motivating the client to improve his/her life. This self empowering process resembles mediation in that the facilitator invites subconscious responses to help the parts resolve their differences. Should a strong underlying cause emerge, your CPTF will employ their knowledge in regression therapy or refer you to a Certified Hypnotherapist who is competent and qualified to facilitate the process of working through the underlying issue. Please contact any of the professionally trained therapists listed on this website to discuss further details with them directly.
What is a (Non-medical) CERTIFIED HYPNOTHERAPIST (CHT)?
A Certified Hypnotherapist (non medical) deals with PERSISTENT symptoms that cannot be resolved effectively through Parts Therapy or with symptomatic approaches.
Every behaviour, habit and in some cases even physical symptoms, whether acceptable or undesired must have a cause … and although one may not know or realize it, events in ones past can have a significant impact on present day situations, feelings and life patterns.
While suggestion hypnotherapy and PARTS THERAPY may work very well for most individuals focusing on the presenting symptom, analytical hypnotherapy also looks at the root cause of the problem. In many instances there can be deep underlying "programs" that function outside of a person's conscious awareness. If your conscious mind is not yet aware (or not fully aware), of the "real cause" of your distress you may struggle to overcome it permanently. It may thus be necessary to uncover those repressed memories and emotions, and to work through /resolve them, to effectively and most often permanently deal with them.
One of the biggest benefits of analytical hypnotherapy is that once the 'underlying' cause is worked through, very often ALL of the associated symptoms (the 'effects') are reduced or disappear accordingly. Examining and understanding the past can often provide you with the tools to move forward and improve your future. A non medical CERTIFIED HYPNOTHERAPIST has gone through advanced training to encompass all aspects of hypnotherapy and is also competent to facilitate age regression and other hypnotic techniques to assist you with self discovery where you can expose and identify these strong underlying "programs" during hypnosis. Once the deep underlying problem is uncovered, it becomes possible to re-evaluate them to affect changes for the better.

These issues can develop into serious problems for the individual and their relationships. Hypnotherapy can often reveal the underlying issues.
Fear and Anxiety is very real for the sufferer, whether authentic or imagined. If left untreated this condition can progress from bad to worse and can have a serious crippling effect on the sufferer's life.
Many aspects of Hypnotherapy involve regression as this often uncovers the initial reason for the development of undesirable conditions.
Children are vulnerable because they have not yet developed their own points of reference and will easily accept any statement from a figure of authority. Children are usually very good hypnotic subjects, but do require a different approach and semantics than an adult.
This is an extremely common, almost accepted condition, hampering the sufferer's ability to live a joyful life. Hypnotherapy can often unveil the various levels of emotional issues, which have led to this condition.
Some belief systems allow for the view that "karmic" situations from the past effect the now. Often understanding our soul's journey more clearly can have a profoundly positive and healing effect to our lives.
Every therapist might have their own view and techniques on how to deal with serious addictions.Stop Smoking sessions have a very high success rate.
Fear is a natural warning system, but it can spin out of control and the mere thought of what might cause the fear can have crippling effects on the sufferer. Hypnotherapy is known to often deal with these issues fast and effectively.
Smoking is more a learned habit than an addiction and therefore can be “unlearned”.
Why be unnecessarily deterred from what should be one of the joyful moments in a mothers life? You have months to prepare, to have a good pregnancy, shortened periods of labour, painless childbirth and easier settling after the baby's birth.
Pain should not be ignored, as it is the body's warning system. However, when applicable, Hypnosis usually offers fast and effective relief.
One of the battles, which are seldom won with will power and discipline alone. Most overweight people know how to eat and to exercise and still struggle to shed the unwanted weight. The powerful subconscious mind might well have reasons to keep the weight unknown to the conscious mind. Hypnosis can make a difference in these cases.
The least the patient can expect during a dental treatment is to be far more relaxed during the process. Hypnosis during dentistry allows the patient to experience nothing more that pressure or the slightest discomfort. An experienced Hypnodontist can assist with gagging, bruxism and even stop or invoke bleeding as required during the treatment.
The subconscious has an amazing memory of everything that we have ever experienced or learned. Sessions with a Hypnotherapist can assist you greatly to recall what you need, when you need.
Dealing with severe trauma of any kind is a challenging situation for anyone. While the natural emotional stages should not be suppressed, there comes a time when it is time to let go.
Athletes, sportsmen/women, learning to deal with the stress and pressure - many top class performers know the power of hypnosis to help them achieve.
