![]() Bringing Hypnosis into the 21st Century!
Because Hypnotherapy is such a safe and natural procedure, it has been left alone to be pretty much self governing and independent of any specific government control and legislation. There are no specific to Hypnotherapy legal requirements, restrictions, or qualifications required by anyone practicing Hypnotherapy in New Zealand. Furthermore, because Hypnotherapy is so safe and natural, anyone can legally practice in NZ as a Hypnotherapist! Every Hypnotherapist in NZ is completely free to practice either independently, or, if they choose, as part of a one of the many groups, associations, or societies. Regardless of their training, qualifications, or experience, every Hypnotherapy practitioner is legally and morally expected to operate under guidelines defined by such departments as Occupational Safety & Health (OSH), the Inland Revenue Department (IRD), the Health & Disability Commissioner (HDC) and the Fair Trading Act (FTA). Also, most Hypnotherapy groups and trainers have strict Codes of Ethics that must be adhered to by all members. To follow, is a
textual and
graphical representation of the structure of mainstream Hypnotherapy
within
New Zealand:
![]() NB: There
are other NZ Hypnotherapy groups outside of this structure! [EG: The
New Zealand Society of Hypnosis and The New Zealand Society of Clinical
and Applied Hypnotherapy.] There are also hundreds of
practitioners practicing independently of any association or group who
are free to do so, as long as they practice within the laws of the
country.
Most Hypnotherapy trainers provide their own qualifications or maybe those from another school. There is a wide range of course content and price of trainers throughout the Hypnotherapy profession - and all newcomers are urged to compare for themselves, these variables, before settling on a trainer suitable to their requirements.

NB: Despite what some trainers might be hinting in their advertising, there
is NO NZQA qualification for Hypnotherapy!
To confirm this, please try a search for Hypnotherapy qualifications on this page of the NZQA site: http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/nzqf/search/results.do Hypnotherapy is a safe, natural procedure, that apparently has no need of specific controlling legislation by the government.
