Help your hypnotherapy clients sleep better
Expand Your Practice with Specialized Sleep Hypnotherapy - Sleep issues affect millions, yet most hypnotherapists lack specialized training in sleep disorders. HypnoSomnia fills this gap with comprehensive ACCPH-accredited practitioner training that goes beyond basic relaxation techniques, teaching you evidence-based approaches to nightmares, night terrors, sleep maintenance issues, and how to differentiate between sleep phase disorders, trauma-related sleep disruption, and general insomnia.
Sleep hypnotherapy is a growing niche with high client demand and excellent outcomes, as clients often struggle for years with conventional sleep advice before seeking hypnotherapy, making them highly motivated and grateful for effective treatment.
Training includes ACCPH certification, extensive video modules, comprehensive client resources and handouts, practical session frameworks and scripts, assessment tools and treatment protocols, plus ongoing supervision and support - perfect for hypnotherapists ready to develop a specialized practice area with strong client demand and create a distinctive offering that transforms both your practice and your clients' lives.
Ready to become a sleep specialist? Join the growing community of HypnoSomnia practitioners making a real difference in their clients' lives.

Free certificate in hypnotherapy
If hypnotherapy isn't your primary modality, you can access our Certificate in Hypnotherapy course free of charge. This course is designed to offer you an overview of hypnotherapy theory and techniques but it is not designed to qualify you as a hypnotherapist. If you wish to train as a fully qualified hypnotherapist, you are advised to complete a CNHC Accredited Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy.
Online portal access
You will have access to an online learning portal for twelve months from purchase of your course. Written materials can be downloaded so that you have permanent access to them.
Business support
You will receive advice and support in marketing your services and images, text and logos to launch your HypnoSomnia service.
CPD hours
You have a choice of completing the course without assignments, by working through the online course materials. This counts for 8 hours CPD or CE. If you prefer to complete assignments, which you receive feedback on, this counts for 15 hours CPD or CE. Both options are accredited by the ACCPH.
