ICHP Australia HCA Member Educational Institution

ICHP Australia recognises the promotion and maintenance of health as a major social investment and challenge. We seek to contribute to the education of people in the community through accredited training programs focused on Mental Health and Personal Wellbeing and Resilience in the face of adversity.

ICHP Australia exists to promote widespread personal empowerment through therapeutic techniques, and to promote the training of its members and education for the general public.

The Institute is aware that all forms of psychotherapy, psychology and counselling owe their origins to the pioneering work of the founders of modern Hypnotherapy. Therefore, the vision of the great pioneers of mental physical health not only informs our guiding principle but challenges and motivates us to continue to continue to develop the work further and promote its widespread use in the community.
