Course program

The Hypnosis Training & Hypnotherapist Certification Online by Transformation Academy is a CPD-accredited, self-paced program that combines hypnotherapy with life coaching. It teaches you to work with the unconscious mind to create change, presented in a style that mirrors an actual hypnotherapy session so you learn the techniques through direct experience.

This certification is open to complete beginners through to experienced practitioners — no prior credentials are required to enroll. It suits anyone who wants to become a certified hypnotherapist, add hypnosis to an existing coaching or wellness practice, or use these tools for personal growth. It is a good fit for people drawn to helping others change unconscious patterns, beliefs, and habits.

The curriculum moves through the foundations of hypnotherapy and hypnosis, beginning with developing rapport, overcoming objections, and communication, listening, and questioning skills. You will study the mind model and the unconscious, suggestive hypnotherapy, and the philosophy and origin of suffering, then learn how to guide someone into a hypnotic state and use the power of suggestion to influence beliefs and behaviors.

Applied sections cover working with clients on weight loss and management, smoking cessation, meditation, and self-hypnosis. You will also learn to help clients set long-term goals, handle stress, and address problematic thoughts and emotions. Later lessons focus on building a professional practice, setting goals with clients, and navigating special considerations and challenges, plus integrating hypnotherapy into existing life coaching work.

The program is taught by three instructors with backgrounds in psychology, hypnotherapy, and life coaching. The primary instructor is Dr. Flavio Balerini, founder of the Hypnotherapy and Counseling Center in Miami and a full-time hypnotherapist since 1996, who has conducted more than 31,000 sessions. Joeel and Natalie Rivera, founders of Transformation Academy, contribute communication and life coaching tools to round out the training.

The course is fully online and self-paced, so you can start right away and progress on your own schedule. It is built around 14 video lessons totaling roughly nine hours of content, structured to feel like a real hypnotherapy session. A final course assessment confirms your understanding before certification.

Upon completion you receive an official digital (PDF) Hypnotherapist certification. The program is CPD accredited, and graduates can also request a printed certificate and CPD/CEU credits through the CPD Standards Office, supporting work as a hypnotherapist or hypnotherapy-informed coach.

The course combines the topics of nutrition, fitness and behavioural psychology in a skillful way. Lots of theory, supported with practical examples, and all the added resources make it the source of knowledge and skills which will be definitely revisited many times by the participants of the course.

I'm a Wellness Coach with over 30 years experience. I'm now going out on my own bringing my skills and experience to my new clients. That said I wanted to be sure that I had all the skills to be successful in helping my clients realize their goals. My friend recommended this course and I'm so happy I listened to her. I now feel confident that I can take the next steps needed to have a successful coaching business.

The health coach certification was on target and meets industry standards. I am an ACSM Certified Exercise Physiologist and that was important to me. There is so much misinformation out there. I'm very pleased and impressed with the content this course offered.
