North Carolina Society of Clinical Hypnosis
Welcome to NCSCH
Welcome to the website of the North Carolina Society of Clinical Hypnosis, a component section of ASCH, the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis.
Whether, you are seeking a practitioner of hypnosis, or a practitioner seeking to hone your skills, this is the place for you!
For more than fifty years, NCSCH has been at the cutting edge of training, advocacy, and community for therapists, medical professionals, and scholars. We bring together a diverse group of practitioners of all levels to advance the use of Clinical Hypnosis, one of the world's oldest and most effective mental health treatments.
We've just concluded our widely acclaimed 2026 Annual Conference featuring speakers addressing the question: "Is Artificial Intelligence the New One-Way Mirror: Ethically Integrating AI into Hypnotherapy."
Each month we host one or more speakers for our free webinar, the Hypnotic Idea Exchange or HIE. It's open to anyone looking to advance their use of hypnosis.
And we will soon be adding new ways to support and enrich the hypnosis community.
So, look around our site and please let us know if you have any questions!
Sincerely,
Dana Lebo, PhD
President, Board of Directors
