the Free Hypnosis Social Network
Of course, a hypnosis certification is all that's needed to be a hypnotist, but what degree do you think gives the greatest combination of skills, professional licensing (in the US) and credibility? Obviously some degrees are best suited to different specializations--a skilled fitness trainer could do well as a hypnotist specializing in weight loss, of course.
But in GENERAL, what degree do you think adds the most overall value to a hypnotist? Social work? Psychology? Or what?

My question was:
Is it enough to be a competent Hypnotist or do we need additional degrees to gain acceptance?

Hypnosis is only a tool that can be used to start religions, conquer nations (talking about gaining acceptance in a big way!) or help someone with physical/emotional manifestations of negativity, etc. Trying hard to gain acceptance from others often backfires. Acceptance of oneself opens and clarifies the path. Get additional wisdom to enrich one's own life.

Appreciate your positive comments about the MSW as a professional degree. I have an MSW and it has done wonders for me. I am also fortunate to be licensed, as is Richard and other hypnotists. With a license and certification in hypnosis I feel like a kid in a candy store. But I'll be up front, I had to go outside of my profession to get training in hypnosis. And it's guys like Richard and other hypnosis trainers who make it possible for me and other social workers to get into hypnosis. Heart felt thanks. Alonzo
