Are you’re a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist or student who would like to join the ACHA?
ACHA was founded in 1996 and is Incorporated in Victoria. While most members are from Victoria, membership is open to all hypnotherapists in Australia providing they meet membership requirements.
Hypnotherapy is the only therapeutic modality that ACHA covers.
All full members have completed diploma level training with over 400 hours comprising class time, research, professional reading and other associated training activities and assessments. Only these members will be considered to be eligible to be providers with Medibank Private.
Associate members are members who are not practising and would not be considered eligible to be providers with Medibank Private.
Student members are those who have completed a certificate level of study. They would not be considered eligible to be providers with Medibank Private.
The ACHA is a member association of the Council of Clinical Hypnotherapists (CCH).
ACHA members are eligible for the Australian National Hypnotherapy Register (ANHR).
