Yes – You CAN Conduct Hypnosis Sessions Online with GREAT Results
Safely, Professionally, Ethically AND Effectively
Approved for 7 to 8 Hours of National Guild of Hypnotists CEUs
Professionals are moving to online sessions! There are some very good reasons to move all or part of your hypnosis practice online. Cal Banyan knows. In fact, he was asked to write the official National Guild of Hypnotists, Standards of Practice for Conducting Hypnosis Sessions Online which are on the NGH website.
Those standards were first created for the 5-PATH® International Association of Hypnosis Professionals® certification course for conducting hypnosis sessions online, and then adapted for the NGH standards. Now you can receive training by Cal Banyan to conduct hypnosis sessions online and be certified by the 5-PATH® IAHP!
The current 1-day certification course schedule is below.

Setting the Standards for
Online Hypnosis Sessions

So, you will see that a growing number of hypnosis service providers are now certified to conduct sessions online. We believe that the best and the most professional are certified through the 5-PATH® IAHP and trained by Cal Banyan, the one who established the standards.
NOTE:
Hypnotists do not have to have this certification to conduct sessions online, unless their membership in a hypnosis organization requires it. However, those who have been certified by Cal Banyan and the 5-PATH® IAHP are much more confident and competent providing sessions online and have this certificate, ensuring the public and potential clients that the hypnotist has been educated and evaluated in the following areas of conducting hypnosis sessions online:
- Ethics & Safety

Feedback and Comments from Graduates of THIS Course
“A great course which would greatly benefit any practitioner who wants to conduct sessions online, whether just starting out or experienced, the content is second to none and addresses every possible aspect of internet work.
The course lasted 7 hours and was packed with great nuggets of information with no “padding” in fact, Cal used his dry humour and no nonsense “drill, drill, drill” persona to keep the course flowing at a swift pace, not allowing the class to side track the process with stories and other non-essential information. There was a lot of information to go through and all the course handouts arrived by email the day before.
There was a Q & A session at the end to make sure everyone left with all their questions answered. I definitely learned a lot and now know the “tips and tricks” to improve my sessions 100% and come across in a professional way. This is definitely the way forward, so thank you, Cal.”
- Bob Bees, BS, CH, U.K.
“I was very satisfied with today's workshop. The Banyan team always does a thorough job of putting together any educational program. I appreciated the time built in for questions throughout the day. Thank you. This was truly “ Everything you need to know about Online hypnosis.” You prepared us for any scenario. ”
- Deborah Quigley, MS, CH, Long Island, NY
“This class was extremely informative for me. It helped a lot with many of my questions to start an online hypnosis practice. Cal is extremely knowledgeable and experienced and answers with precision. The interactions with the other members were also very interesting.”
- Chantal Forgues., RN
“I liked this class very much. It was informative and covered topics that I am curious about. The technical aspects and the adaptations necessary to provide successful hypnosis sessions online. The Zoom format of the class worked so well. Cal's delivery was great – and by the end of the class there was a real feeling of camaraderie.”
- Christine Larkin, BS
“I know that importance of following the ethical standards for conducting online sessions and I wanted to gain more knowledge and confidence. I was very happy to receive an email and learned about this course. Very informative class and I get what I want from this class.
All of my questions were perfectly answered by Cal and I gained my knowledge. Now I am feeling more certain and confident conducting online sessions. Thank you, Cal, Maureen and Tasha for this amazing course!”
- Rena Barker, CH
“I have been doing hypnosis for twenty years; always learn something new whenever I train with Cal Banyan.”
- Robert Collier, CH
“The reason I took this course was to be a little more familiar with Zoom meeting with strangers and if circumstances permit, I could do online therapy sessions as filling up the gap until the office setup is ready (Currently I am preparing to start a hypnotherapy practice and make a website after relocation.)
But after this course, I might change it to the online hypnosis as my core operation. There are so many benefits to do online sessions for the clients, not only for my side.
Since I am not active as a hypnotist, I wasn't familiar with Safety, Confidentiality and Ethical issues even in face-to-face hypnosis sessions and all my concerns were gone because it seems like online session is much easier to handle these issues. Additionally, I would get a certificate!
Thank you, Cal again for this informative course. And Tasha was very helpful, thank you!”
- Tamami Sylvester, CH
“I have participated with great benefit in the training for Professional Certification to Conduct Online Hypnosis Sessions with Cal Banyan. The training was very professional and well planned. The content was structured and easily accessible. Cal Banyan is an excellent teacher and manages to keep the content interesting and never boring. I look forward to many successful online hypnosis sessions in the future.”
- Peter Sivebaek, BS MPF, Denmark
“Even though I do online work (make personalized hypnosis mp3's for clients) and have for several years. I enjoyed Cal's perspective on actually hypnotizing clients on-line (which I still haven't done) especially including all the safety precautions for both Hypnotist and Client.
I particularly enjoyed the open book exam as it took all the fear away from writing an exam again (at 75 years of age).
I liked Cal's teaching method including the notes to follow along with, the frequent breaks, and we were always able to ask him questions.
I really liked the fact that the students were from many different countries and states.
I don't have any comments re: To Improve. I enjoyed it all.”
- Linda E Hay RN, BScN
“The class was very helpful in making the transition between in person sessions to online sessions. Cal made it fun and informative. I feel like both myself and my clients will benefit from my having had this training. Thanks, you guys!”
