Hypnotherapy + $30 course or $12,000 degree = Licensed "Medical" Profession

Now, there is stuff selling on the internet which is, say, a $30 "spell" or "magic rock" on Ebay done by a "professional witch", and it's not just a joke, these things actually make money. Imagine if that person were a licensed witch with the official approval of New York State and an international witch association.

My thinking is more that if you could get the medical license, for some people the medical practitioner discounts would end up being worth the money it cost for the license and education.

I'm keeping it in the back of my head for now and may eventually try to get the license just for fun. Might be fun living in Hawaii!
Hypnotist doesn’t seem to be one of the professions licensed by NYS Department of Education. Medical doctors are. So are a wide variety of mental health practitioners all the way up to art therapists. New York seems to say that licensed mental health professionals can’t advertise themselves as hypnotists: https://op.nysed.gov/professions/mental-...competence. They do seem to tolerate the idea that a professional could incorporate hypnosis if they completed a program of study in it, so maybe that’s who could go for a certificate.

Being recognized as a hypnotist by the private organization of hypnotists doesn’t seem to get you any special status. Maybe some businesses would be willing to give you their discount, although it’s arguably fraudulent if you don’t have another qualification.

That’s not to say you couldn’t go into business as a hypnotist, just that there isn’t some loophole to get benefits easily.
