Canada Association of Counselling Hypnotherapists and Educators

The Canadian Association of Counselling Hypnotherapists and Educators (CACHE) is a not for profit society of regulated hypnotherapists dedicated to providing the highest standards of practice and education in our field.

We think it’s time for a fresh approach.

In the fall of 2015, more than thirty colleagues gathered together to discuss the challenges facing hypnotherapy today.
How do we help the public understand the difference between a weekend workshop and a multi-year field of study with supervised practice?
How can we do a better job of clearly communicating to the public about the benefits of hypnotherapy and how it supports the healing journey?
With so many innovative synergies now available between somatic tools, mind-body medicine and therapies at the frontiers of consciousness, where does hypnotherapy fit in?
How do we gain support from both the traditional medical establishment and governing agencies to make hypnotherapy more widely available within Canada’s provincial healthcare programs?

At CACHE, we are committed to regular updating of examinations and providing industry-leading training. This helps ensure that the public is receiving current information, potent treatment and achieving successful outcomes.

Together, we can go further. If you’re looking for support, education, training, or advocacy for the field of hypnotherapy, we’d love you to join us.

Benefits of Membership

Keeping current and staying connected

We foster connection among colleagues both in-person and online. We provide education and support for our members through events and our member-only resource archives. Our members have many opportunities to connect with like-minded people, advance their training and stay current with new techniques.

Building a successful business

We support our members not only to excel in the field of hypnotherapy, but also to establish a solid, secure and successful business. To that end, we provide professional supervision, marketing workshops, business development training and opportunities to learn from established colleagues in the field.

Education & Resources

While our association is specifically engaged with continuing education and credentialing for Counselling Hypnotherapy, our membership is made up of registered professionals in the fields of hypnotherapy, counselling and a variety of other therapeutic modalities. As such, our trainings are diverse, multi-disciplinary and holistic, with an integrative approach to therapy.

Advocacy & Innovation

Membership in CACHE is an opportunity to build and shape a stronger professional community. Your membership gives you a voice. Growing our membership gives us political power. If you would like to see hypnotherapy embraced by the medical community and one day be covered under universal healthcare, then becoming a member is a great place to start.

Connection & Support

From our monthly online and in-person gatherings, our digital presence through social channels and podcasts, our advocacy work in the healthcare sector, to our workshops and courses, we are working to reduce the sense of isolation that can sometimes come from solopreneurship. CACHE is your link to the wider community of practitioners, not only in your area but also spanning the globe. We also support and promote member-led events, helping you reach your ideal clients.

Elevating the field of hypnotherapy

We protect the public interest and the integrity of our profession through entry criteria, peer review and discipline. We have established the highest standards of practice, entry to practice, code of ethics and complaints policies in Canada.
