AHA Register of Clinical Supervisors
Supervision is a mandatory requirement for all AHA
practicing members. All practicing members must complete a
minimum amount of hours of supervision (see
AHA Prospectus) to
maintain their membership. Supervision is an important part
of an AHA hypnotherapist’s membership requirements, it also
acts as a form of quality control for the public.
The benefits of using an AHA
supervisor:
The
most important benefit from your perspective is that to gain
AHA membership, Clinical Supervisors have to meet the high
standards set by the AHA in terms of training and
qualifications.
AHA Clinical Supervisors have to follow guidelines about
professional conduct, responsibilities and confidentiality
that are set out in the
AHA Code of Ethics.
AHA Clinical Supervisors also have the benefit of the
Association to help them with their work and ongoing
training. AHA Clinical Supervisors bring the benefit of this
support to the work they do with their clients - you.
All
AHA Registered Clinical Supervisors meet the following
criteria:
-
Eligible for or are Clinical
members of the AHA.
-
Completed an AHA recognised course
of training in Clinical supervision.
-
Carry a current certificate of
Professional Indemnity Insurance and Public Liability
Insurance
-
Complete a minimum of 10 hours of
professional/clinical supervision annually.

Every applicant
for recognition as an accredited supervisor for the AHA must
first be deemed likely to be accepted without reservation by
all the clinical members.
Every Clinical
Member and above is therefore entitled and obliged, if an
applicant is considered unacceptable (with particular
respect to good fame, personal reputation and character), to
report any such reservation, substantiated in writing, for
consideration by the Executive.
The AHA will always
uphold the principle of natural justice / procedural
fairness; however, every applicant is required to
acknowledge that the Executive may refuse to accept the
application, or may refuse to admit the applicant for
accreditation, without the Executive being required to
provide any reason or explanation for its actions.
If any clinical
member considers that a current applicant is not
acceptable, they are to forward their substantiated report
to the Executive. The Executive will treat all such reports
in the strictest confidence.
If no such report
is received within two weeks of distribution of the
applicant's name, the nominated referees will be contacted
to confirm the Applicant’s bona fides. The Interview Panel
will be convened as soon as practicable thereafter.
If you are
a Supervisor interested in joining the Australian
Hypnotherapists' Association please contact the membership
secretary for your state or ring Maya Lak on the AHA Free
Advisory Line 1800 067 557.
