Clinical Research Articles Course - Online Course

Presented By: Bruce Bonnett

Bruce Bonnett

It is important that Hypnotherapists be aware and current with the Clinical Research in Hypnotherapy conducted by Major Universities. These scholarly writings provide the practitioner with not only expectations of what is achievable in the field but also with a powerful tool to validate the potential and expectations of potential clients and referring health care professionals.

This self-study course provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical research that supports the effectiveness of Hypnotherapy in 53 of the most common applications that a Hypnotherapist may encounter in private practice.

A one-hour video introduction and overview by the author, Bruce Bonnett, sets the foundation of how to use these resources in your private practice. Once you are fully aware of the research available you will be able to quickly access it, refer to it and even print out specific study results in a usable format to share with clients and healthcare professionals.

The quizzes for this self-study program consist of 5 questions each (total of 265 questions) covering all 53 different clinical applications (total of 418 case studies), see A-W list below.

You don’t have to complete all 53 quizzes in one session, you can proceed at your own pace. You have 360 days from the purchase date to complete this course in its entirety.

Your CEU Certificate for eighty (80) hours of Continuing Education is not awarded until all 53 quizzes (418 case studies reviewed and 265 questions answered) have been completed and you’ve passed the course with an average score of at least 70%.

Did you ever wonder what you could tell or show potential clients to convince them that hypnosis really can help with a certain issue? AHA Presenter Bruce Bonnett will provide an overview of research studies from universities and hospitals that conclude that Hypnosis can help with 53 specific presenting issues.

Note: This course provides a summary of each study formatted in a uniform and easy-to-use way. It also provides, where available, links to online websites that contain summaries of the studies. However, the course does not provide you with access in many cases to the full, complete study reports written by the study authors. Study authors often charge hundreds or even thousands of dollars to permit one person to access a full study report for a short period of time. Rather than having to charge you thousands of dollars for this course in order to allow you access to the full study reports, we have opted to keep the price of the course at a reasonable amount and only include the study summaries – which basically contain most of the useful information you would want for your practice anyway.

I am grateful for all the research and to Bruce Bonnet for compiling it and highlighting important, relevant aspects of each study. There has been so much progress in terms of proving the benefits of hypnosis scientifically, but it’s still research that one needs to search out.
