Overview

Become a Trauma-Informed Clinical Hypnotherapist.

Learn to use hypnosis safely, confidently and ethically with clients who have experienced trauma.

Trauma is no longer a niche specialism. Whether you're an established professional looking to integrate clinical hypnotherapy into your work, or you're aspiring to become a hypnotherapist and want to start with the right foundations, chances are you'll work with people whose lives have been shaped by trauma.

This training provides the essential foundations of trauma-informed clinical hypnotherapy. You'll learn how trauma presents, how to work safely and ethically, how to recognise when hypnosis is appropriate, and how to apply it in a way that supports safety, stability and lasting therapeutic change.

This comprehensive certification teaches Ericksonian hypnosis through a trauma-informed clinical lens. As the first stage of Ronia Fraser's professional certification pathway, it establishes the essential principles and clinical framework on which the advanced Emotional Response Design™ Certification is built.

At the same time, it is a complete, internationally accredited certification in its own right and significantly exceeds the depth of trauma training found in most standard hypnotherapy programmes. It is the only trauma-informed Hypnotherapy Certification Training accredited by the American Board of Hypnotherapy.

The standard

“Trauma-informed” has become a phrase many practitioners use. But being trauma-informed is not a label. It is a responsibility.

It means understanding trauma responses, recognising your scope of practice, knowing when hypnosis is appropriate, and knowing when it is not. Good intentions matter. Competence matters more.

The best place to begin.
Far beyond where most hypnotherapy training ends.

Suitability

  • A medical or mental health professional interested in clinical hypnosis.

Testimonials

From graduates.

It's taken me this long to find the right trainer, and I truly feel that's you. Your training delivery is so informative, engaging, and fun, without ever feeling overly academic. It was clear, grounded, and truly resonated with me.

Dr. Nishi Ronnie Dubash, United KingdomPsychotherapist, Clinical Hypnotherapist & Trainer

NoteKasia Maciejowska's testimonial has been moved to /na-expert per 2nd-draft feedback confirming it belongs there and not on this page ("You are right about Kasia, this one belongs here and not in the Hypno"). Dr. Nishi Ronnie Dubash's quote has been promoted to the featured slot in its place, since no specific replacement was named.

Wow! Even though I was already a trauma informed clinical hypnotist, this course blew my mind! I learned so much with Ronia. Not only did this expand my tools box as a professional but it also helped my confidence and I resolved some small personal challenges.

Amanda Dodd, United StatesClinical Hypnotherapist

The course structure had a great dynamic between clear theory and concrete practical exercises. In addition, Roni is amazing at holding space for us/you as a group as well as individually when needed. Highly recommended!

Malin Wendel, SwedenMental Coach & NLP Trainer's Trainer

This was the perfect amount of classroom training and practical exercises. Completing this training has brought me knowledge, confidence, and more tools to add to my toolbox to not only help me, but to help others too. That's really special.

Brittany Fentross, United StatesSurvivor & Sound Bath Facilitator

I highly recommend Ronia's Trauma-informed Hypnotherapy training to anyone who wants to further their skills working with trauma, not just in narcissistic abuse recovery. She is also very supportive as a trainer and cares about her students.

Kevin Moran, United StatesConsulting Hypnotist

A thoughtful, well-structured, trauma-informed hypnotherapy training that is both deep and safely held. I came away with practical skills, increased confidence and a much deeper respect for the power of language, presence and the unconscious mind in creating change. Truly amazing and highly recommended.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What's different about this hypnotherapy training?

Standard hypnotherapy training focuses on teaching basic hypnosis techniques and how to help clients with issues like smoking cessation, weight loss, confidence, or stress reduction as a form of personal development. This training has been specifically designed to equip you with the foundation you need to work with traumatised clients.

  • Adds a crucial layer of understanding trauma responses and the nervous system.
  • Equips you with tools to facilitate trauma recovery gently and without re-traumatization.
  • Prepares you to hold space for difficult emotions safely and support integration.
  • Teaches you how to safeguard your clients, yourself AND your business.

Please note that trauma recovery is an advanced application of hypnosis.

What makes hypnosis so effective for trauma recovery?

The biggest limitation of traditional therapeutic approaches is the focus on the cognitive function in an attempt to find resolution through logic, analysis, interpretation and conversation. Unfortunately many trauma survivors experience little improvement after months and even years of therapy. The reason is that the damage caused by trauma sits on a much deeper level and needs to be addressed accordingly. To be able to do this we require practical tools that allow us to take the recovery work outside of the conscious mind and go within. Hypnosis allows us to do this gently, safely and effectively.

What experience do I need?

There is no prior experience required. Whether you are already a hypnotist, a professional working with trauma survivors or you are a survivor yourself, you can rest assured this training will equip you with the solid foundation you need to confidently work in the field of trauma recovery.

Will I be able to work with clients right away?

Absolutely! I know from first hand experience how it feels to have completed a training and being to self-conscious and scared to go out there. This training is not meant to be just another certificate in your collection that gathered dust.

You will leave with practical tools, supervised practice and a clear understanding of how to begin using hypnotherapy safely within your scope of practice.

This training is designed to build confidence, not create false certainty. You will know what you can work with, what requires caution, and when referral or additional support is appropriate.

Is this training accredited and internationally recognised?

This training is accredited by the American Board of Hypnotherapy (ABH) as well as the CPD Standards Council, both internationally recognised organisations that stand for high quality training content and delivery.

Can I get insurance for my hypnotherapy practice with this training?

The training is accredited by the American Board of Hypnotherapy (ABH) which is an internationally recognised organisation. Personal and professional liability insurance for "hypnotherapy" is usually available through insurance providers that specialise in complimentary and alternative therapies including hypnotherapy.

Please do your research on local providers and reach out to them directly to verify acceptance and local requirements.
